it's me reviewing this game for the 5th time as "played" bc i can't and never will finish this piece of shit
Cool little rage game that builds off the first one to make it so much better. It works really well and is comedic, challenging and fun with friends online and locally.
Improves on the original in all the ways I wanted but dang is this game freaking hard. And in some ways feels more 'rube goldberg' than the original, or like deaths are out of your control sometimes. I don't think I'll ever reach 7-99 but its one of the best roguelikes for sure.
This game is the best kind of hell
My friend's game kept glitching out and we couldn't play together because it would give him infinite life lol
Endlessly fun and even more frustrating. Its the kind of frustration that you have to laugh at. you have to lave when a caveman falls off an edge in front of a dart trap, sending a dart to set off a boulder right over your head. You have to laugh because its just so random, and if you don't, you won't get very far.
It takes a lot of patience to learn this game, and maybe even some videos of others playing. but when you finally beat it after playing so carefully, its worth it.

DOpe x2
On par with the first
I will play more soon. I love Spelunky.
Spelunky 2 is an incredibly difficult game, much more difficult than its predecessor Spelunky HD. The game will make you rage, a lot, for hours. However, this game is still incredibly fun. With lots of content you'll probably never get to see!
The visuals, levels, enemies, bosses, and almost everything else is an incredible improvement over Spelunky HD, apart from a few things.
That mainly being the music, the music is still very good and is actually dynamic now which is great. There are many amazing tracks you will likely love... however, they all fall short when compared to Spelunky HD. This is likely because that game didn't need to focus on dynamic music and only needed to focus on happy jingles to nod along too.
Another criticism about the game actually stems from 2 new features, that being the back layers and fluid physics. The back layers are a very interesting concept that just isn't used very effectively, with there not being much content or anything interesting to explore there. The other one is fluid physics, while being a great concept, the lava causes more annoyances that great times, blocking level paths and making the drill in volcano slightly more RNG heavy as well as making the game significantly more computer intensive.
Despite this criticism, the game is still amazing and one I heavily implore you to try. While it doesn't have the exact same feel as Spelunky HD you will still have an incredibly, painfully fun time! (Especially, if you enjoyed Spelunky HD.)
The new areas are great to venture through, and you can finally play with your friends online if you can manage the input delay.
I have completed all achievements and it took me 61.9 hours, the achievements are varied and great and I am almost ready to hang up mining helmet, however I still crave to do one more challenge, that being the endless expanse of pain after those 22 levels of turmoil. You should play the game to understand what I mean, because there is a greater challenge hidden away from the achievements here, one you will likely never complete...
I give this game a solid 8/10 - great gameplay, difficulty and challenges with good but not excellent music. The game is slightly more RNG dependent than the previous game, but this still leaves room for a lot of fun.
Well done to Derek Yu! And remember always to "ransack those shopkeeper's pockets" while Kali watches!

I hate this game very much but i also love it so dearly.
even more painful:)
The Tina Says: i'm not the biggest fan of games of the roguelike genre but Spelunky manages to nail the execution. The vast amount of crucial knowledge the game demands you have to make any form of significant progress makes a barrier to entry very entertaining. I can always come back to this game and do a few runs because it's just that fun.
This game is pure art. Even though I have done absolutely everything I cannot imagine a day right now where I will stop playing it
damn these bats got hands though
I HATE THIS GAME ITS AMAZING
Rideable Axolotl truly made this goty
Yeah it's fun
PHENOMENAL soundtrack. I don't get tired of the dwelling theme after hours of smashing my head against it trying to get a good run started.
I LOVE LUNKY
Fun game to play with friends but nothing I could see myself grinding on my own.
