Facing our Demons in Spelunky 2

[@ParmMannREBORN]

From Jo frustrating his teammates in Spelunky 1 to Jo getting frustrated by his teammate in Spelunky 2, what a beautiful character arc

[@mudkipfan2585]

You either die the hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villian

[@goldenfox8701]

Jo is beautiful

[@the_peak]

Remember how frustrating they thought he was in 3d world, this is what I call growth

[@derekkim593]

The only way it would be better is if the editor put in a stock intro, spoke in white text with a bright red outline, and was named tyler

[@chasethemaster3440]

Ha

[@Yamartim]

Unironically this is my favourite series on the channel, Dash fucking pissing Jo off as much as he can while Jacob just has fun with the game and laughs at them is top tier content

[@curtislanglitz926]

I had tears streaming down my face from laughter

[@danecummings3985]

It’s just the opposite of Smash

[@honorableintent]

This edit really is incredible. If I had to quantify it somehow, like maybe through a numerical ranking system, I feel like it's definitely a 10.

[@plaguedoctorspencer]

I take a break from KZbin for a while and now I have no idea what anybody means

[@holidayoreoreal]

@@plaguedoctorspencer 10 is referencing DotColin the new editor who edits for Altrive sometimes. Pretty much every time he edits an altrive video it’s a 10/10 on KZbin meaning it’s the lowest viewed video out of the past 10 uploaded. It’s become a meme since Mario Party Superstars

[@skdg7867]

Out of what..?

[@wyvern-augury]

@@skdg7867 out of the last 10 videos the best would be 1st out of 10 and his are 10 out of 10

[@ManDrake47]

@SМL 🅥 that's a mis

[@squiddler7731]

25:33 I like this death because they had literally no reason it coming, lol. Like yeah, Dash ran straight into a bat and got himself killed which wasn't smart, but then the bat somehow launched Dash's corpse over to a ledge 3 tiles away and one tile above, have it slam right into Jo as he was passing, and then launched him into the dart trap that killed him (as if the spikes that impaled his corpse weren't enough)

[@onlysmiles4949]

Yeah, like it technically *was* his fault, but what happened was nothing short of a Rude Goldberg machine

[@smudge445]

the item interaction at 1:38 is so bizarre. caveman picked up turkey, instantly tripped which damaged the turkey once, then the tripping caveman damaged it a second time, killing it. spelunky 2 is such a wonderful game - you see new random shit happen every time you play it :)

[@zinfuldreams1709]

he tripped because of the broken arrow too

[@Floofy_Fox_Gal]

But the best part is that none of it is random when you look long enough, it’s all an algorithm.

[@Happycide]

iirc Derek has explained before that spelunky levels are compacted to encourage interaction within the environment. So that's why there's so many cool things that happen between entities

[@mudkipfan2585]

It's so wholesome of them to use an awesome game such as Spelunky 2 as an outlet to face their demons

[@brennan9194]

I LOVE THE SPELUNKY CONTENT!!! Jacob got me into the game years ago and its so refreshing seeing it brought back :)

[@hclink7315]

This is wholesome. You get the wholesome award

[@trikuztrucos8005]

I don't.

[@Luigi-np8td]

did you know, that when Deluxe decided that they would face his demons, the common response was "how did they do it?", much like the common response to the impossible burger

[@devinc578]

This is the most non progress i’ve ever seen, and I love it. Can’t wait till they get to cosmic ocean.

[@art-cs6us]

imagine if they somehow get to constellation status

[@superprogamermica1427]

Or stardust speedway

[@KristiMerrittjesussaves]

I don’t think they’re making it to cosmic ocean, too dysfunctional

[@intol_]

Coming from someone with a background in speedrunning this game, it’s really funny to see them perform a speedrunning trick known as “back layer skip” at 3:32 Believe it or not, it took the community months to figure out how make Quillback break those 3 layers of tiles consistently.

[@darkyz8538]

But like how do you

[@spud8370]

@@darkyz8538 you can manipulate quillback to go to a specific spot and roll, but even then it's not guaranteed to work kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooKXk3p8hLGXeqc

[@toastr1255]

Really? When I saw it happen there I assumed it was just because he followed quillback

[@user-lw2yb9ln7r]

I have to say that I will not be able to forget 14:25 for at least like 1 hour

[@Side_N0te]

Side Note: Hired hands will do their best to avoid hitting a player. Example: they will not whip if the player will be hit by it. But you can still walk into their attack after they attack.

[@forshovelry2705]

The fact that in over 45 minutes of gameplay you only ever left world 1 a single time is a testament to your incredible teamwork

[@amongsussyballs]

it was 2 times which is even better teamwork

[@squiddler7731]

@@amongsussyballs technically they made it three times, but I guess the second time doesn't count since it was only like 3 seconds That time Jacob was the only one alive though, I'm sure they would've survived longer if everyone was alive cause their teamwork is so good

[@echo_ironside8006]

24:49 is the best example of spelunky being spelunky that I've ever seen

[@littleguystar]

I know this isn't "haha funny experiment you're so goofy" styled like most comments, but I'm so glad that we're doing Spelunky 2, we didn't do much with it in the main channel so it's nice to see it alive here now, even if we're a good while later

[@KalirSavant]

You always start with 4 bombs and ropes divided between the party in multiplayer, but it doesn't divide cleanly at 3 players, so someone gets to be underresourced. They did not divide the default 4 health because they wanted multiplayer to be theoretically winnable.

[@jman9969]

Man being drunk at almost 4am walking home watching you lot playing spelunky 2 is an absolute blast.

Cool bug facts, if you enable the Run Total Timer, the game (idk if this is still a thing) would continue to use that timer even when the game was paused, allowing your run to somehow report that you'd been on that run for 59:99
