    Dice Walker (WebGL, 2020) was written by Lewey Geselowitz and has evolved through-out the years as Evil Dice (Windows 98, 2003), Evil Dice PE (Pocket PC, 2003) and Evil Dice 2 (Windows XP, 2006). It was originally inspired by 'Devil Dice' (or 'XI' in Japan, Playstation 1, 1998)>, with it's ingenious dice matching concept; all code was written without reference to the original source, and new controls, timings and gameplay details were added for better keyboard/dirpad/touch gameplay. During development it was first written in C++ over OpenGL for Windows 98, adapted to Win32 GDI for Windows CE touch support, then C# over DirectX for Windows XP, and now C# over Unity 2020 for WebGL (iOS/Android/Linux versions available seperatly).
