I don't like it when I can't see the whole playing field at once in games like this. 

I use a 32-bit Linux system, but the 32-bit Linux version of this game doesn't work for me 

*** Error in `./Minezel32': free(): invalid pointer: 0xb47ba340 ***

However, I can play the Windows version using Wine.

Sorry to hear that the Linux 32-bit version isn't working for you.  What distro are you using?  Although it isn't possible to see the whole level, you can press the space bar to toggle zoom out / in modes.  The zoom out mode shows a much wider area.

Hello! I am looking for games made with AppGameKIt on Itch. That's why I found your game.  Okay, I downloaded your game and I am playing it. The game is really similar to the classic game Boulderdash. Sure!

You prepared two EXE files for 32-bit Windows and 64-bit Windows. This was a very friendly arrangement. The graphics of the game are suitable.  Many people should be familiar with Boulderdash.  However, they may still be interested in playing the game because of the nice graphics.

I really like the zoom in/zoom out function. (by pressing spacebar) This function is cool!

In conclusion, it is a really good casual maze game!

Incredible! ❤️

Awesome game, and the puzzles are very challenging!
