This unassuming, cute little platformer looks like something that was made for a child. But I assure you, plunging yourself deep in Spelunky will make you realize what it truly is. Malice. Malice in the form of a roguelike experience.....I....have been playing games for nearly 3 decades and the cold, dark, merciless abyss that are Spelunky runs still threaten my sanity. I thought I was stronger than this....You probably think you're more capable than you really are too. And that's another thing this game does. It grabs hold of your self perception and......violates it. With a jeer. With its cute cuddly graphics and catchy bleep bloop music. Violates it with the precision and ruthlessness of a child molester...
Someone needs to get blown up by a random ufo getting hit by a laser in Neo Babylon then we can talk about how bullshit spelunky is
its not malice its replay value. sheesh.

I <3 spelunkythey are about to run Spelunky 1 in the Summer Games Done Quick, starting any minute now...
Should I play the first or the sequel
it's a very easy game and kids beat it
>>681442515The sequel will be too hard if you don't play through the first game successfuly at least once

>>681442515They are both great games, I would play the first game, and then the second game if you want more. Spelunky 2 is much more 'smooth' when it comes to general gameplay, but Spelunky 1 is a bit more concise with it's balancing and pacing. Plus music is way better in 1.
>>681442515Gotta play the first one so you can appreciate the differences in the sequel. Spelunky 2 can be overwhelming without playing the first game. In fact, you should play the original freeware game.
>Spelunky... BROKE me
it's cheesed by kapala
>>681443243>This game will BREAK you.
>>681439596Yeah, honestly, I'm hard press to see any bullshit deaths in Spelunky, it's fair pretty much the whole way through.Lunky 2 just randomly murders you in dwelling or neobab and is cakewalk the rest of the time.
>>681442524kids being good at video games is just how it is, isnt it?
>>681441521skill issue>>681446302definite skill issue
>>681438886the angry shopkeeper music is etched into my brain
I think we should replace all the Terraria bloatslop threads with Spelunky hardslop threads since I'm playing that game now.
>>681438886The sequel is so fucking hard
>>681441521Hilarious as this is, it has to be from an early version of the game. I'm sure as the game is now you you can't spawn in danger. The only true bullshit left in the game is boomerang men in the black market.
>>681438886I loved the first but I only beat 2 with the most basic of endings then stopped. 2 seemed too hard and even looking shit up seemed too complicated. I could learn it but it didn't seem worth it.Loved the first game though
>>681441521WOOOOOOOOOOW
someone post the telefrag webm
this was literally one in a million levels of bullshit btw
I've been playing since last summer, and I haven't gotten past 7-39. I don't think I can make it, lads.
