Ver.2.0 Update is out now! In this major update, we have added Local Multiplayer Mode with up to 2 players, along with new levels. We have also added Extra Mode with new enemies and even more levels!
Have fun with your friends and family in Local Multiplayer Mode! Using two controllers, you can play together with your buddy! Cooperation is the key to winning. By working together, you can capture the gold that is impossible to get alone!
In Extra Mode, you can play new levels featuring new enemies that have new movements that will destroy the blocks or self-destruct when falling in a hole. You can also utilize these new enemies in the Craft Mode!
We also have improved the UI. Plus the prior Level Editor has been updated to our new Craft Mode where you can make your own original characters! Now you can replace your main character with your one and only original character!
We are also pleased to announce that we are changing the standard price of Lode Runner Legacy. The new price is $11.99 in US dollars, E11.99 in Euro territories and 1200 yen in Japanese Yen. (Note: For some currencies, the original price may be unchanged or may be higher due to the exchange rate.)
So far progress into Part 2 has been steady. I wanted to give everyone a look into some of the concepts I have been working off of. Just as an idea of what's going on.

So far, so good! There is a ton going into this one and I can't wait to see it all come together!
It has been a difficult few months at Blak Iron, and we have some updates that have been long overdue. The major updates are that the frozen north, the Frozen Forests of Balerun are now available for play! Navigate the maze of pathways to the north and discover whole new resource locations as well as a bit of a teaser for the upcoming Darkling tribes to come later this month as well as a plethora of side quests, gladiator arenas, and additions to the main quest line!
Next on the update list is that the option to obtain the Launch Bow has been removed. If you claimed your Launch Bow prior to this date and by chance lose it by some means, you can get another from the Update Vendor in the Pury District of the Carver Outpost!
Another update is that our beloved Seannafair of the Isle of Sleeping Light has been removed and replaced with a newer pink hair Seatru! She has taken the place of Seannafair without taking away from her role as a guide for you as you take your first steps into the world of Galamar!
Updates coming in the next month are going to be a doozy so stay tuned for more coming from Blak Iron Studios!
Russian folks have a lot of celebrations in May. From the Spring and Labor Day which is on May 1st to the Victory Day which is on May 9th. The good part about it is that they usually organize awesome festivities and the best part is that you're all invited, to each of them.
The celebration already started today at 5:00 UTC and will last until the 13th of May, 2:00 UTC.
Special containers!
For 12 days in a row, you will be able to obtain special containers in battle. There will be three containers available in total, each of them will drop in battles during a certain period of time.
May 1-4th - container "May I" Which contains:
Rare skins for Hunter and Smoky called "Victory Day"
A new paint called "Spring Colors"
The "Needle" coating and paint
The "First of May" graffiti
Steel skins for Titan and Hammer.
On May 5th, 2:00 UTC, it will be replaced with the following container.
May 5-8th - container "May II" Which contains:
Rare skins for Viking and Thunder called "Victory Day"
The "Triangle" coating and paint
The "Digital" coating and paint

Rare skins for Railgun and Hornet called "Victory Day"
New paint called "Red Banner"
The "Guerrilla" coating and paint

Steel skins for Isida and Wasp.
The container will stop dropping on May 13th, 2:00 UTC.
Terms, conditions, and how it works:
At the end of every battle, the game will run an invisible raffle which will decide who will get a container in that battle.
To enter the invisible raffle you will need to earn at least 100 battle points and play the battle to the very end.
Any of the three containers will drop 1-2 items out of those we mentioned above. In case you get a duplicate (an item that you already own in your garage), you will be compensated with Crystals.
After the celebration has ended, these containers will be removed from the in-game store and will stop dropping in battles as a reward. However, those to have acquired and opened them during the celebration event, will keep the loot forever.
Special offers!
Every one of the three containers that drop in battles will also be available in our in-game store for 125 X-crystals.
Upon buying the 3rd and the 5th X-crystals packages, you will receive the “Red Banner” paint as a gift.
Upon buying the 4th and the 6th X-crystals packages, you will receive the “Spring Colors” paint as a gift. (more info is available in our store)
And most importantly! 30% discount on X-crystals between the 1st and the 4th of May, 2:00 UTC.
Double experience!
Double experience during the following periods of time:
