When the game was
designed it utilized two types of walls. One was destructible by using explosives and there was another wall that you will be unable to tamper with. Some of the diamonds have been hidden underneath the walls. Beware of the walls that may expand because these walls can block you into an area. If you happen to get a hole in this wall it will close back off quite quickly. There is also a wall that is magical, which will turn boulders into diamonds when they fall through this wall. Sadly this wall will only be activated certain amount of time.
The levels have been made with dirt and space that are really basic designs. For the space level you will be able to navigate throughout it freely and move the objects just as easy. In the dirt level you will dig through it opening space. You will collect all the diamonds throughout the cave to complete the level. Diamonds can also be used like a rock to crush some of the creatures. For the levels they mainly consist of boulders that will come in handy for destroying creatures when they fall through the caves you create.
