At the end of the game, Jake is seen in the Technological world calling an elevator to the surface, eagerly waiting while the credits roll.
#LODE RUNNER 2 WINDOWS MANUAL#
The game's manual explains that Jake, and optionally Wes, travel to unknown underground worlds in the hopes of scavenging the untold golden treasures that litter the game's levels. The robots of the original game are skeletal "mad monks" who wear red robes. The player character is named Jake Peril and wears a gray suit, although a second player can play as his partner, Wes Reckless (who wears a blue suit), during two-player cooperative levels and head-to-head hotseat play. The editor can choose to set the level in night or day, as well as change the background music regardless of the tile set. The two Shadowlands levels in this mode are not pitch black.Ī level editor is included with the game, allowing several levels to constitute a single group of levels, as well as the ability to switch between different tile sets.
#LODE RUNNER 2 WINDOWS PATCH#
While most levels are set in the day, the levels of Shadowlands take place at night, when the entire screen is pitch black, save a moving circular patch of light within which the player is visible. The game contains 150 single-player levels broken up into ten different "worlds": Moss Caverns (jungle), Fungus Delvings, the Lost City of Ur (ancient world), the Crystal Hoard, Winter's Dungeon (ice world), Skeleton's Keep (fossil world), Inferno's Playground (lava world), Shimmering Caverns (phosphorus world), the Shadowlands (dark world), and Meltdown Metropolis (industrial world). Another form of turf is introduced: gooey turf, which slows the passage of both the player and his enemies. In addition to the standard turf, which is susceptible to being dug through with the player's blaster, there are also the nostalgic bedrock (which can only be penetrated with a jackhammer or a larger bomb that, unlike small bombs, permanently destroyed turf or any other item in the level except the exit) and trapdoor turf, which resembles regular turf but which actually is empty space. The game also resurrects the original Lode Runner's several varieties of "turf" as well as introducing one more. These devices include snare traps, incapacitating sprays, jackhammers, two types of bombs, pickaxes (which make a pile of rock from the ceiling blocking enemies from advancing), and buckets filled with goo that is used to cover surfaces and slow characters down. New elements include devices that can be picked up and used only one at a time. The goal is to collect all the treasure, avoid touching any of the monks, and reach the exit.
The game takes place in a single frame with many different elements such as ground, ladders, treasure, items, and villains.
