==Special edition== The "Special Edition" of ''Gridrunner++'' was originally created for a gathering of members of the Llamasoft message board taking place in London. It was originally only available at that gathering or via word of mouth from those who had attended. It was later released by Jeff for download but has been removed from the Llamasoft Archive site, due to it being played without buying the standard (registered) version first. The Special Edition is based on the registered version of ''Gridrunner++''; no trial version of it exists. The Special Edition features the following changes: * The main title reads "Gridrunner++ London Jolly 2 Special Edition". * The sheep picture on the opening title page is replaced by a picture of a plate of Vindaloo. * The displayed play area is much larger and has a larger horizontal dimension than vertical. * Enemies move ''much'' faster, making the game much harder than the standard version. * The player's ship can fire horizontally by holding down the left mouse button. * The "secret" ships from the original version are the defaults in the Special Edition. * Whenever the player's ship is destroyed, one of several samples of a group of people swearing is played. This group is actually composed of all the people who attended the board gathering who met up in Jeff's hotel room in London and were sampled on his laptop. * Numerous other samples are added or altered. * An extra "endurance mode" option is added, in which the player aims to score the highest amount possible on one life.
