One million is nothing.
Level 100 is nothing.
Your player quite too early. At level 116, ALL LEVELS start wrapping
aound on ALL 4 sides. This makes playing someone who relies on potions
(Elf and Wizard) Much Different--Not necessarily harder (some are), but
different. It also means that there will generally be welcoming committies
around to say hi.

From levels 200-230 or so, the 'players can go off-screen' applies to
REGULAR, as well as treasure, levels.

After 230 or so, every level can randomly be one of:
Stun
Hurt,
or Normal.
The bad thing is that the warning messages are incorrect; you have to check
the ouch way at each level.

Oh yea--when this last thing occurs, the auto-wrap stops. I wonder what happens
around 450 or so.

And if you find wizard to be a piece of cake, try valkery. And the others.
Valk's the hardest; I prefer warrior. (Personal opinion)
