Died to a skelly 48 seconds into my first run. I missed Spelunky. How do you all feel about default auto-run with R2 to walk? The inverse feels more natural but maybe this will be better in the long run if I practice it...

Ok I’ve triggered (assuming it’s something I did) the ghost early several times (supposed to be at 3 mins right?) What did I do? E: I se the ghost face on that pot now.. Pakistani Brad Pitt fucked around with this message at 18:48 on Sep 15, 2020 |

Hooray I got to 2-1. Boomerang is a great weapon at least on world 1 where I can hang from ladders and snipe. Died promptly on 2-1, was not prepared for conveyer belts Then splatted on 1-1 of the daily. Time for a break!

Escape Goat posted:Just generally speaking, without spoilers, the level layouts seem a _lot_ more antagonistic, whereas each level in 1 had a pretty clear "default path". I'm finding myself needing bombs and ropes just to get to the exit. It’s been a long time since I played 1, but this feels offset a bit by bombs and ropes seeming a bit more available? Seems like with the ghost pots I’m usually not too desperate about money and I feel like I’m being less thorough in clearing levels than at 1

Is it me or does the crossbow sort of suck? for 8000 I figured it would at least hit hard if I have to retrieve the ammo every shot..

I've been bombing/igniting all turkeys I run across in world one. Seems like the extra health is worth far more than the time/opportunity cost of gathering the turkeys to unlock a few thousand dollars in treasure. Do any of the other mounts cook like that?

If the pets were cookable for the same 1 health there would be little reason to bring them to the door

Brasseye posted:But one turkey can take (I think) 4 or 5 hearts worth of damage instead of you, massively increase your vertical mobility, let you walk on spiky thorns in the jungle, effortlessly hop over the first boss a bunch of times for extra gems... I probably just need to practice more given all of those benefits. I feel so immobile in the turkey and then half the time I fly off of it because I pushed the analog stick the wrong way (maybe I should just switch to d-pad?)

Diephoon posted:I think this is why I'm going to prioritize Jungle over Volcana most of the time. If you didn't know, there are three sisters locked in sub levels in 2-2, 2-3, and 2-4. If you find them all and free them by talking to them they will give you a 12 bomb box at the Olmec stage. I just found my first of these the other night and thought they were just unlockable playable characters like the robot, etc. Assume you need to do this on every run then if you want it, not just once? I prioritize Jungle over Volcana because it seems like I can at least stand still in Jungle and get my bearings. Every time I try to assess my situation in Volcana poo poo jumps out of the lava or dumps fire on me and then I die.

Does shopkeeper anger work the same way in this game? In Spelunky 1 they stayed angered for your whole run, right? I swear I've escaped angry shopkeepers in 2 and interacted peacefully with further ones, but maybe my memory is just bad?

Tombot posted:I wonder how much will change before we get to the PC release? I remember the original Spelunky development was very iterative and there seems to be a quite a lot of gameplay hurdles right from the start compared to the original game. Wasn't the PC release like 6 hours ago?

I think some of the 'hard' things people are complaining about just need to be tweaked a little bit. -The poison mechanic: This is brutal, I'd make a few changes to it: 1. Increase time between damage ticks, at least a little bit 2. (maybe?) have it stop at 1HP, (and keep you there, so no cheesing with the Kapala, until you cure it) -bear traps Make them do some actual HP damage, like the spike traps. Even if it is 4, 8, 10 HP where it's often an instakill. Give me some reason to gather all of the health that this version lets you get. Maybe they could do damage + a ball&chain type slowdown effect? -moles just get rid of the their invuln frames... if I bop one on the head it should count goddamnit

I thought i read upthread that they made 1-4 less samey than it was at launch. How the gently caress bad was it at launch, was it literally a static Mario Bros level with the same jumps every times?

I don't think either of these are the problem with 1-4 in an ostensibly procedurally generated game
