Ahh, this game brings back distant memories of playing loderunner on a little green monochrome screen on our Apple II+ until i had nightmares that i was getting crushed in a sinkhole. Apparently the first personal computer implementation of the game was for that system.

I'm disappointed that the joystick code is written in a way that makes it work poorly with accelemymote, but it's ok with a keyboard. Optified but not background or localized-keyboard friendly yet.

Q and W to dig left and right, arrow keys, p to pause, and z/x to switch to demo and then quit.

The editor functionality hasn't been tested and the keys for it aren't fully remapped.

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?
