First LP (Well, kinda) SPELUNKY
« on: March 06, 2010, 10:35:35 pm »

I've LP'ed Empire Total War which is AWESOME on youtube, except it never got finished because my steam account got hacked.  :'(

However: I will take the reigns of my fallen let's play and reinstate the power of spelunky upon them! (wait, what?)
Anyway, tell me what you think about that!

I hope someone answers soon...

Well, it may be rather hard to do, considering I've never one a game through 819 tries... yeah that's right, 819.



...but I'm gonna do screenshots.
First things first though: Should I try to kill the shopkeeper, or not? I've done it before....

Kill every shopkeeper.

Ford every river.

No items, final destination.

Well, you know how if you take your thumb and forefinger and hold them up to your eye, you can make it look like you're squishing someone's head? It's like that, only for real.

A no item, shopkeeper murder run?

That's going to take a lot of really lucky bomb throws.

Unless your counting bombs as items. In the case, I suggest we have to use up all bombs and ropes, as soon as we get them.

Oooh. Spelunky with conditions... :D

Wouldn't you have to rely on luck to get through with no bombs or ropes?  If you take a wrong turn you can certainly be stuck, but maybe a no-items route is always guaranteed, dunno.

Some deity on youtube posted a *starting items* run.  No picking up of any items, and obviously no shortcuts.  Didn't murder shopkeepers, but it was still amazing.

No ropes or bombs are a bad idea, sometimes the level generator will royally screw you over, Once I got stuck because There was no path to the exit, unless I used a bomb, I had none so I had to rope up to the local shopkeeper who just so happened to have them.
