Vinerunner: Jungle Adventure

THE JUNGLE GOES UP Twelve new trails, and for the first time you climb instead of only running left to right. Eight shafts to climb. Ledges that swap from side to side, planks that fall away under you, and a long drop if you miss. The tallest is about ten jumps high. Platforms that move. Ride one up, cross a gap on one, and step off while it rests at the end of its trip. They do not wait for you. A vine that hands you to a lift. Swing out, let go over the platform, and ride it the rest of the way. Miss it and a wide shelf catches you, so a bad release costs the ride and not the climb. Two trails run, then climb, then walk home along a road above the ground where they started. There is one climb in every region, in that region's own weather, so it fits where you find it. And THE ASCENT is a new region that is nothing but up. MONKEYS BITE NOW Running into a monkey costs you a heart. You can still land on one from above, and on the balcony floors that is often the way past. ALSO NEW SINCE THE LAST UPDATE The nine hidden rooms pay out. Each one is worth 1,200 to 2,200 treasure and 150 to 400 experience the first time you find it. Before this they paid nothing at all. A level that hides a room now says so, by name, with its clue. Nothing mentioned them anywhere before, so you could finish the whole jungle without knowing they were there. The Trophy Shrine counts every coin you have ever earned. Buying a hat used to take idols back off your shelf. The bounce flower throws you higher than a jump. It used to throw you lower, which was a strange thing for a flower with a sign that says LAUNCH SKY HIGH. Level 13's flower road works now. A perfect vine release pays you in height. It opens routes instead of only sounding good. Thin ledges let you jump up through them and land on top, which is what a climb needs. Plus a pile of small fixes. A mission used to finish three bonks early. The top rank showed a target it had already passed. The world map counts its own totals now instead of reciting numbers we typed in. Thanks for playing. Tell us what you find up there.
