Full on panic dodge

If you could have heard me trying to stay alive lol, I don’t know that it gets much closer.

Started playing at 6 y/o, Beat Yama at 16 y/o

I first started playing this game on the PS3 when I was 6. After my console broke down when I was 11, I took a long break. I decided to redownload Spelunky a week ago on PC, and I finally beat Yama.

Most useless piece of equipment? For me, it’s the machete

I remember being excited to get a machete in the early days of playing Spelunky. You want to mess with me? Come get some!

Then, I figured out that one of the keys to the game is to not get hit. In order for me to hit something with 2 points of damage, I have to get up close and personal, exposing myself to damage.

I do roll my eyes when I get a web gun, too. But in rare situations where I’m not already carrying something better, the web gun can at least stop most creatures…so I can get past them and find a better thing to carry. But, I wouldn’t drop a web gun for a machete.

Can someone help me understand what happened?

While I was doing the Sun Challenge, my friend was AFK outside (because he was watching my screen), and he kept taking damage for some reason.

lobbyart.png not changing in game

I know my issue is very specific AND its about modding an very old game, but here we go:

SO, I just bought spelunky HD for pc since I LOVE modding and the game isnt buyable on xbox since i could only play with my friend acc. i just got into modding and my game is in the patch before PTBR addition since frozlunky doesnt work pas that, and im changing the AllTex.wad of the game and while most texture changes work fine, i changed lobbyart.png and when booting the game... it doesnt change? it stays default and when i delete it it becomes a black square so thats the right file (i also changed lobbyring.png and same issue happens). i have to report this here since as i said this game is kinda dead and coincidentally among the like... 3 texture packs online for this game, it doesnt change these textures. the frustrating part is that lobbyartcolor.png works fine

original

mine

in game (even after change)

ik this issue is REALLY specific and most people that knew about the issue are either dead by covid or personal trainers in malaysia or smth like that but this strange behaviour is a lot annooying for me

Beating Hell is Easier Than Speedlunky?

I find it really weird more people have the hell and back trophy rather than Speedlunky. While I'm thrilled I have the rarest trophy from the game it seems crazy to me that more people beat hell. I remember getting Speedlunky in one (very fun) dedicated evening yet I've been trying off and on for years to beat hell! (I think I've only been there twice)

Do you have either or both of these trophies? Which did/do you find most difficult?

Attention shopkeepers: I look *nothing* like this

A cobra wandered into a shop, and spit in the face of the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper, in a panic, grabbed his shotgun and started blindly shooting. Then, he put the word out to the other shopkeepers. He has venom in his eyes, so he didn’t get a clear look at the punk that did this. So, naturally, they blame the drifter who’s just passing through.

Do the shopkeepers need glasses?
