[Editor's note: The author warns of an error in the Millionaire level: "In answer to 'How many donuts are there in LR2,' reply as one less than the origional value."]


Ok, so I've finally managed to get these levels onto the web. Let's have a look at what's in this little goody bag then shall we?

A Millionaire?

One of the finest levels I have created, this level is a game of 'Who Wants to be A Millionaire' based solely on Lode Runner with a cruel twist at the end for anyone who reaches it. E-mail me if I have got any of the answers wrong at the adress given at the bottom of this document. And yes, this level CAN be beaten and there is more than one exit. Future editions will contain a doughnut once I find out how to copy and paste from two documents.

Conveyor(r)

Apart from the above, this is the finest level I have created so far. Based on a mining operation with hundreds of secrets and some very hard passages, this is probably the hardest world hub you have ever seen. Oh yes, this level does contain two bugs which I need to fix sometime but they do not hinder the gameplay and make it easier in one circumstance.

For the Producer

A relatively hard level based around my name, this level contains many sections that look easy but can only be completed in one way only. Don't be afraid to leap from places that look as if they go nowhere. Remember that you can always scroll around to see where you might land.

For Sophie

A relatively easy level based around my sister's name, this level is only hard if you can't run and turn quickly or avoid bombs. In many places, there are invisable blocks that are crucial for solving the level. Don't be afraid to just walk of the end of a corner if no skull is shown below you.

Sortir 2

The first, and easiest, level I have made which shouldn't pose anyone too serious a problem. Try to get the beach ball first before exploring what the switch in the bottom right hand corner does.

The Enclave

This is the hardest level I have made by a long way and I have only been able to playtest it in stages as together it is a complete nightmare. A challenge, perhaps, for anyone who feels they are the king of the Lode Runner 2 Domain (In no refence to the website I might add.). Based in Mona World inside a long pillar building, which tests your almost blind navigation, it has an ending that is near impossible. Might I suggest that the easiest way to prevent this is to do the last bit first by finding the ladder at the very top. This should at least raise your chances of survival. Secondly, mind your step if you find a beach ball or hear the sounds of grumbling monks as it is rumoured that there are many monks in the tower, many of which are handily placed near a beach ball, that either hide behind a corner to ambush you or stalk your every move in that lovable Death Monk fashion.

Wacky 1

Certainly not, as it's name suggests, Wacky world level One. Probably one of the most taxing levels I have created, this level expands the theme of 'Unstable Islands' to cover the entire level and thus timing is absolutely crucial. In the final section, some invisable blocks have been placed to help you thoruogh what would otherwise be an impossible task. And Yes, it IS possible to complete it and I have done so but it does take a good many hours to do so. After all, practice does make perfect!

Important Information

You may not take credit for these levels, you may not distribute this in CDs (for sale) without my permission, you may not sell this as Lode Runner 2 levels must be free anyway and you HAVE TO include this readme if you're putting this up on a site or distributing it. Oh, if anyone wants to send me money for my achievments [hmm] then e-mail me and we will make arrangements.
