RE:   New Levels

Yes, Jake-sters, here we are with another installment of the famous
"OVERLODE" series of Loderunner levels.  This is OVERLODE
number 10.  By now, all of the novice players have been
weeded out and you are, I'm sure, one of the few, the proud,
the "professional" Loderunner fans.  Only gluttons for
punishment would have played this many OVERLODE levels and
still come back for more.  As before, in this file there
are 25 new levels.  They are ghastly, deadly, and
exasperating!

They range from medium to difficult in terms of skill
level.  As before, believe it or not, you will discover some things
about the characteristics of this game that you never knew before.
All of these levels are "conquerable" and carefully thought out.

Some of them are down right nasty!  There are a number of
things I purposely did NOT do in these levels.  I did not
create any "night" missions in that I feel they are unfair and
don't add that much to the game.  I also tried very hard not to
put alot of sinking floors and hidden items in these levels.
Rather, I stuck primarily to solid puzzling and ingenious
gaming.  I think that you will be challenged for many hours.

Another special feature (that many of you have indicated has
preserved your sanity and kept your monitors from being
smashed with hammers )is a built-in "HINT."  Simply click on
the tool bar icon at the bottom of the screen that has the
capital letter "A" and it will bring up the hint screen.
Click on the words and cursor along the sentence.  In most
cases it is practically a "walk through."  It will cause you
to mutter, spit, and look heaven-ward saying, "Now why didn't
I THINK of that?!??!?!??!

I would encourage you not to "cheat" to solve these levels.
What I mean by that is to simply go into the "edit" mode and
see the entire level in its completed form.  Only wimps do
that.  Play the levels on the "up and up" and only resort to
the HINT or the "cheat mode" as a last resort.  If you still
can't solve the level as it stands, let me know.  My e-mail
address is:  JOEL4IU on AOL.

Happy solving and please upload some more of your own homemade
levels for me to solve.
