Spelunky - Best Game Ever

It's great, never managed to get far though.

This is pretty hard eh... I've managed to get to level 7, but never saved enough money to buy the tunnel :shock:

Trying to get that stupid ankh is a giant pain in the ass. Maybe I should just forget about it and try and beat the game normally first.

And I've never managed to get more than one gift out of an altar in a single game. Keeps screwing me by putting them in levels with nothing to sacrifice.

You can pay the shortcut digger in increments. He needs a total of amount X that he's willing to accept from you in several payments. Once he has the whole amount the shortcut is ready.

I WON, I FINALLY WON!! I'M FREE

Check my death count... what a loser.

 

[Damned Registrations]

Damn you. Now I have win too.

Got my first win today. Probably could have gotten a win earlier but I was trying for the city of gold every time also, as well as 8 saves and 120 kills. Got 8 saves and my first trip to the city (With only 1 spare bomb, so sad) in one run and then got the city of gold a bit more properly with about 10 bombs, as well as the 120 kills and finished off the boss too.

Now I'm trying to do the speed run to unlock the last room. Fucking game keeps jewing me out with cheesy trap placements and useless shops.

The HD version of Spelunky that was released on the XBLA...is coming to the PC this summer.

I, for one, welcome our spelunking overlords.

Tempted to pull a Morgoth on it since I love Spelunky, but after the long wait I almost wonder if I should just keep waiting until I can get it for a dime from a bundle.

 

[Crooked Bee]

Don't see the point in this, really, unless you haven't played Spelunky before.

 

[Unkillable Cat]

The HD version includes, among other things, 4 more levels of Hell to go through.

Look for a LP of the HD version on YouTube and decide for yourself.

 

[Shaewaroz]

Damn, the XBLA version should be ported to PC - that would be insta buy for me.

EDIT: I should probably learn to read the thread before typing. IT'S COMING TO PC???

 

[Micmu]

Fuck spelunky. That game cost me a keyboard (ragesmashed).
I died around 900 times before finally managed to finish it.

Also, fuck "HD" version. Who gives a fuck about "HD" on an old-school platformer

Is there something wrong with higher resolution graphics

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

Actually kinda think the original's graphics and music are better, but the new one has some new shit in it so what the hell.

 

[Black]

BEEN FUCKING WAITING FOR THIS

AM SO READY

Higher resolution does not necessary mean lots of shitty effects to cover everything up and make the game look worse. I am unsure if this is the case with Spelunky as I haven't played either version

Also I've posted here since 2007

 

[Clockwork Knight]

no, that was my point. What makes you sound new is thinking that someone wouldn't find a way to bitch about a new feature

 

[Tommy Pickles]

The game is coming to GOG and Steam on August 8th

[Luzur]

ive known of this game since...last year?

 

[Shaewaroz]

GOG version it is then. Can't wait to play this. :D

 

[Black]

It's out, and it seems that the GOG version lacks daily challenges and leaderboards
I'm enjoying it very much, even though I haven't beaten the new version even once yet.
