Doesn't look like an homage, it just looks like regular old Dig Dug. Which is fine, it's a good game.

There's some sprite and palette differences that I can see right off the bat, hit very cool.

Here's the original.

One of my favorite games growing up. I remember dedicating a whole day to kill-screening the arcade versions of Dig Dug and Pac-Man back in college.

I didn't have it for the C-64 (that was at my grandparents' house), but I did have it on the Apple II (at my house) and I played it constantly on that. The C-64 had better color, so the game definitely was lacking in the graphics department, but I still loved the gameplay.
