thanx 4 ur help but sorry it was none of them but similar to them and
it was not a dos game
the main theme is to collect the keys and unlock the doors
but we have to push the rocks to fall on dynamites and blast walls or whatever!
sometimes if we kill creatures like bats they get vanished and diamonds or gems will fall
iam dying to play this game
you are doing a great work and thanq for ur effort

What platform was it for? That's definitely a key piece of information.

um sorry i don't know the platform i think it is written in c as am not sure abut it
as we proceed thru the game u get different background for different levels like GALAXY etc., only if u empty the sand (a sand block vanishes when the man passes thru it)
one more imp thing is that u have a two player mode but the 2 player game is all about who reaches the end first
and when u kill creatures like bats & zombies keys will come but not gems
