The arrow characters are not in basic Latin character set (0000–007F), but in 
Arrows character set (2190–21FF). Maybe there are two possible reason: one is 
you don't have font with such character set. (I'm using Simplified Chinese XP 
SP3.) Another possibility is there are some bugs in code, for example VB6's 
unicode support are not well in non-Chinese Windows ... I want to make sure 
what situation is.

It's VB6's bug ... the control in VB6 is ANSI control, which can't display such 
a character on non-CJK system :-/ Do you mind me change the arrows to "lrud" ?

Forgot to say.This is the best thing a bloxorz passionate like me could 
find.Good job creating the game.I am very thankful.I am very impressed by the 
fact that it builds random levels and can also solve them.Also it would be nice 
if you could add teleporters(just a suggestion).Did you play ice princess?

Teleporters? There already have teleporter feature in game. ( the brackets "()" 
) Maybe you mean other type of teleporters... And I haven't heard about Ice 
Princess :-/ I'll try ...

I have uploaded a workaround for this bug, change the arrows to 
"L","R","U","D","S"(Left,Right,Up,Down,Space) but it's not the best solution...
