Jumping Through Boss Doors: Spelunky

Dave

Here's our shitty, low-res videos of this completely awesome Roguelike Platformer.

Quality wasn't terrible. Does make me want to play this game now, looks pretty cool. Loving the Paper Mario style game sprites.

Dreg

Still laughing at the aftermath of "Fuck you, Dracula!"

At least we made it out of the mines!

Railith

I hate those spiders so much.

I'm glad the game gives you options in terms of what kind of "Damsel" you're able to save.

RatherOddRanger

Is this on the XBox 360 or PSN?

Railith

It's on 360 and free on PC.

HOLY SHIT THERE'S TOYS!?! Also yes definately getting this on 360 now.

Best part is how it turns you into terrified crying children while youre playing it

Parabellum

I thought I had become bored with platformers for awhile now (also I thought rougelikes sounded terribly hard) but for some reason I really like this one.

I bought it as soon as it came out. Through the Xbox Live website because in the system pre-purchase screen it was -1 MS Space Dollars and on the confirm screen it was 4.29 Billion MS Space Dollars.

Killing shopkeepers gives you a shotgun. Do it.

Dave

But then there's murderous shopkeepers everywhere. :(

Shotguns are quite easily findable in jungle. With a little luck at least.

Curse our government's support of small business owners!

Ice world is a fever dream, and I died very quickly.

That was madness. Luckily you have the generous 8 minutes for the Xbox achievement.

This game looks fun yet frustrating and the fuck Dracula was hilarious this looks like a good pick up

Dreg

Have you guys thought of doing War For Cybertron as a JTBD? The original game's pretty cheap now, and the co-op campaign is pretty fun.

Dave

It's not something we'd considered, but it's a slow period for games right now, so maybe if it's convenient!

RatherOddRanger

WFC is a pretty fun game and the sequel is due out where you can play as Grimlock.

Dreg

The characters talk A LOT though, so I tend to put the voice volume down a bit.

I can't believe it's taken this long for there to be a roguelike platformer. It's such a simple, beautiful idea. I kind of miss the pixely-er graphics from the original PC version, but CO-OP looks so worth it.

Dreg

Toejam and Earl may also be coming to PS3.

Howdy, Stranger!
