I once noticed that Mappy and Lode Runner shared some traits, like trying to collect valuables in a level being chased by enemies that you could only just temporarily eliminate with indirect attacks.

So, I decided to combine them.

This patch changes the sprites of Mappy so Mappy becomes The Lode Runner, and the enemy cats become the robots chasing him. It also changes the blue baloon in the bonus stage to remove the cat’s face. And of course the title screen changes from “Mappy” to now saying “Lode Runner”
