Northernlion Plays: Spelunky! [Episode 15]

[@TheShadesOfBlack]

For all you spelunkers reading the comments, if the dog gets eaten by the worm it still counts as saved. I call it Dog Delivery service

[@Northernlion]

If you're at Leviathan I apologize for the brown stain I left on the seat back in May.

[@FierceBananaGaming]

"jet pack makes us go through levels faster" so he says... The only time he doesnt spam the right trigger is the time when he can be reckless...

[@SirKemper1]

I know a lot of LP'ers who'd just sort of let the audio sync error slide, but NL took the time to fix it and rerender the video. Thanks for being a cool bro, NL

[@ADIBYTER]

Sound is slightly lagged?

[@TheRadioSquare]

If somebody confused just look at description. Thanks for fixing audio NL, really appreciate your work :)

[@MrPJOZ]

Audio delay makes these videos a lot better! It's fun guessing what NorthernLion's reaction will be before we hear the reaction.

[@Grandosco]

You played really well in this one. You're being more careful, using resources, and avoiding needless conflict. Go you! This is a big step towards improvement. Good job!

[@Zanaki113]

Hopefully tomorrow he gets the key to the ice caves!

[@solid768]

A Dr. Steve Brule reference, A Nine inch nails/Johnny Cash Reference, and A lonely Island reference, all in the same video? Thats why I love you Northernlion cuz you're awesome.

[@BIGBIRDandWHITEBOY]

They talked about it on Saving Progress, I dont remember what they said exactly, but it was either that they were hoping it would, or that it was coming but not until later.

[@Gamecrafter12]

You think i have no life by waiting for Northernlion's Spelunky videos? Nope my life is fulfilled by watching.

[@TheSimplyfied]

"oh that was perfect!" *Key bounces to another set of spikes* xD

[@Eirikasacredstones]

18:10 Hooooooly shit is that the black market right underneath him? I swear I've seen him walk past the black market when it's CLEARLY in sight. And before anyone says "Oh he didn't know about that" I know, I'm just saying it's crazy how many times he's walked right past it without the udjat eye or whatever it's called haha.

[@UserName0043]

Are you talking about Paris Saint-Germain or Arsenal?

[@mowgliwashere]

When you died when you had the jet pack I laughed so much :P

[@fnord3125]

You do know you can push the grey blocks, right? In the spot on the spider level around 8 minutes or so where you're trying to figure out how to get by the arrow trap, I'm pretty sure you could have pushed the grey block off the edge to trigger the trap.

[@theATMccoy]

your best bet for progressing is probably to get the kapala. you get it when you place 2 damsels on sacrificial altars in one run, and lets you replenish health from the blood drops that come out of enemies. you can get a lot of health from it

[@grundlemuncher3943]

Golden goblet got me rewatching these old vids

[@TwilitArchon]

I just have this image in my head of NorthernLion getting so close to the top of this insurmountable mountain, celebrating his victory, then Derek Yu shoves him off, pins him to the ground, and Buttercups him.

[@yoitsjoesmoe]

Spelunky is from the PC. This is just an updated version for Consoles.

[@reisjames1]

I actually like the audio sync error, its like -arrow trap fires -five seconds pass "...OH MY GOD"

[@Jumpyluff]

The developers of Fez and Spelunky should make a collaboration game. Think of the possibilities. I get 10% of the profit and NL gets the other 90%.

[@XylonLionheart]

Sacrificing two damsels to the alter is ALWAYS worth it.

[@pixipui]

True.... Also I don't know if you can carry him to another stage.. I guess its good for the journal though~

[@phubans]

Aww man, I've been watching these ALL day and now we're at the end... :( Welp, time to subscribe!

[@CursedNobleman]

3:55 was tragically hilarious.

[@GrimGearheart]

I couldn't play / enjoy a game like this. So much work to be thrown away in the blink of an eye. I would have a rage heart attack.

[@Learner0012]

8:40. Instead of throwing a bomb, I would have pushed the gray block to activate the dart trap. I would have also used a rope instead, since at that point, I wouldn't really be needing them anymore. I'm starting to feel like getting the key is more of a co-op suited thing.

[@Asparagun]

Actually you can't unlock anything when playing co-op. It is, however, possible, albeit difficult to take the key to the end of the ice caves in single player, and it involves use of a hired hand to carry your key for you.

[@Learner0012]

Hah, wow... that's... the necropost of necroposts in KZbin standards.

[@joek0620]

Always carry a rock or key in this case for the mines as it is a much better weapon than the whip. The rock is good for offense and helps trigger arrow traps. Is good for offwnse until a better weapon comes along.

[@TheSandMango]

Tip. Ropes can be used to damage anything above you.

[@thomasrasmussen2124]

i totally remember lou bega and his mambo nr. 5, but i loved it more in max raabes version

[@moob1234321]

That Tim and Eric reference made this video that much better.

[@drybrawler]

this is what i call a good evening, eating salsa, drinking milk and watching NL play splunky

[@gemmie36]

Love your all your vids Northernlion, and I just wanted to say. You can actually fall a good distance from a ledge hang. It is one of those things that you just have to get used to seeing. With practice you can tell what will hurt you and what wont. You just need to experiment.

[@ajardoor]

Did anyone tell what the deal with the keys were yet? There's a locked chest on the same Mines level as the key. You unlock it with the key. The key has no other use, other than as a thrown item, IIRC.

[@Zebo12345678]

The audio is still messed up NL. Look at the description. He tried to fix it but it's still messed up.

[@Jumper706]

if you search "Northernlion only in Korea" you can see his face and hear him talk about his experiences teaching English in Korea a little bit. hopefully that'll answer your questions.

[@Merick123456789]

i know about the older version (2008), i was just asking about this version specifically

[@PlanetaryPenguin321]

NL: Im getting a feeling we have a chance here. Me: Thats just false hope.

[@alexwood6459]

i love this show

[@coolboy111]

Your offers to Kali add up for a whole run. The more you sacrifice the more/better items you get

[@HeyImBoschea]

Northern, do you think they should bring Spelunky to the PC?

[@TheLedStrago]

Bringing it back !

[@Golddanboy]

try putting two dogs on altars in the course of one run. You'll get an item that lets you regain HP when you collect enough blood (which comes out of every enemy when you kill them / whip them)

[@flashmodeify]

Yes the audio is delayed a little read the description

[@steverinn8649]

Worth it? Probably not. I feel like this has been said at least twice an episode, each time I both laugh and wonder why it doesn't occur to you not to do that again. Then I remember how short your memory lasts and laugh again.

[@SpaceBeefJerky]

Still works on the XBLA version.

[@m9105826]

The Steve Brule references get me every time

[@globox123456789]

Somehow I just caught this through the reupload.

[@metaldk100]

I didnt even noticed audio sync last time xD

[@DaRkLoRdZoRc]

I chose jetpack over woman. There's millions of women in the world. I've never seen a functional jetpack. ...I'm so lonely.

[@buckwheat219970]

This game has the feeling of classic super mario bros, zelda, castlevania, and pitfall all in one.

[@PressBForBombs]

anyone else notice that its longer that the messed up episode?

[@Green-pm6wk]

northerlion you should always get the royel jelly ! getting so much health is good and here are some tips on killing the bee queen 1)get her stuck in a 1 block hole so she cant get to you but you can whip her 2) make her go under you and throw a bomb so it hits her 3) when u have the spikey shoes u can jump on her easyly 4)any kind of wepon works like crysknife boomerang the lazer gun and the black knights shield or right u dont have them cuz u dont do the secret levels

[@Vlayer]

29:17 Looks like Spelunky is running on an enhanced Troll Engine

[@12321Christopher]

It's in the description.

[@globox123456789]

That first run was so good and promising! And I think your jetpack exhaust made it explode. Was that it?

[@QuarstyAndZack]

Whenver he gets the jetpack, I always ask myself, "How will he fuck this up?"

[@Stopmotioncreator1]

i love these videos thanks northernlion for uploading them they have insane humor (i hate to say it but in my opinion more than isaac videos) and i respect that everyone else loves isaac and i do too but i just like this more (my opinion)

[@globox123456789]

Read the description. Just for future reference. ;)

[@doggod106]

Dammit I thought this was a new episode but it's just a re-upload.

[@Spatenschorsch]

NL maybe you dont check your videos after uploading them - but this one (probably the first one) is a little bit asynchronous

[@farmzombie]

This is kind of like Dora the Explorer. "Do you guys see the key?" " There it is!" "That's right!"

[@Zanaki113]

Lmao

[@GenLiu]

Super meat boy with the jet pack, I could've not ask for a better start for this [...] I got the climbing gloves as well, so I can climb on everything we possibly come across.....BOOM! - This is cruel but that was the BEST part of this let's play so far. haha

[@Azdsts]

Right on time!

[@gmpilot]

Does the voice recording seem a little off to anybody else? It seems like a quarter of a second late. Not the whole audio, just the mic.

[@WHITE_SPINE]

Then if you throw rocks at their corpses they release even more, allowing for almost infinite health (I've only done this on the pc version).

[@shatty07]

Can't help but notice your sound lags tpwards the end of the video :/

[@KingGameReview]

damsels on the altar do pay off. after 2, the Kapala is really nice (get health from blood drops), and 3 damsels = 99 bombs!

[@treasurechester9k]

I was trying to remember what comments I made on the last video, and then I got Mambo no. 5 started/stuck in my head AGAIN. Damn you Northernlion~!!

[@the_verTigO]

Which of all the deaths do you mean?

[@theicyphoenix1063]

I am trying to do the key to ice world and I was at the 3rd level of the ice world and died.

[@thebeat3831]

hey NL ik its a stupid question and many people may have asked it before but do you still play dota2 ? i loved the videos and ik that thee r other games out but if you are still into it mybe we will see some fotage in the future.....if you dont want to do it its still ok.... :P

[@Anonymous19951]

how the heck do u get two dogs,theyre damseils(probably misspelled), and there was one on each level

[@Cjay456]

Im still screaming "Mustache man! Mustache man!"

[@1BlueYoshi]

I was having one of the most amazing runs ever yesterday, with almost every shop upgrade and a shotgun, like 8 health and TONS of bombs, and even unlocked a new character on the 3rd level of the Ice Caves. But when I got to 3-4, the new character instantly threw a rock (or something, it happened too fast to tell) and I flew off the cliff into the abyss. :'(

[@xXPlacentaXx]

I like to think of this delay as if he has a really bad reaction time.

[@Keisuki]

how does this kid get veteran?

[@yoitsjoesmoe]

Then wait untill episode 16.

[@tristanbowman1068]

I grew up to mombo #5 but it was NEVER in an Arby's commercial....... or was it

[@googolplexbyte]

Did you remove this earlier because the sound was out of sync?

[@NaruhanStrife72]

The explosive crate seems that was triggered by the jetpack´s ignition ._.

[@quetzaIcoatI1]

It still seems out of sync, like when he almost falls on the spikes, 5 seconds later he finally says "OHHHH"

[@HeyImBoschea]

I mean this updated version.

[@MrTacoboy89]

is the audio delayed by a couple seconds for anyone else? o.O

[@thirtycentdecoy6696]

NL, the backswing extends behind and slightly above your character, a fact which can be exploited and is also the reason that you died at 3:55. Look at kayinnaski's and eguee's Spelunky Techniques videos, they have a lot of hard to figure out stuff like that in them. Be aware that the tip about dropping onto spikes from a low height is out of date and no longer works. The rest is solid.

[@756secret]

3:59 Maybe the jetpack overheated or something.

[@HeyImBoschea]

Is it wrong to request more lets look ats?

[@Rhynchocoela]

The character is based off a game called Super Meat Boy.

[@AxelGleisner]

That awkward moment when you realise that you watched this video already...

[@BlastingNovaBurst]

y do i feel there is sum audio lag on these vids?

[@Merick123456789]

is this game ever going to be on pc?

[@15ghostrider]

8:48 he could had just move the box to the left to trigger the arrow trap

[@1BlueYoshi]

I just beat the game for the first time today (although I used the temple shortcut), and I played as Meat Boy.

[@Zanaki113]

Congrats :)

[@kirene995]

this is the same episode as 14

[@KingGameReview]

oh and after the 99 bombs prize, you get 4 - 8 health per damsel

[@alttair17]

are planing on playing this whit someone?

[@YourPalQWERTY]

@xsaber34 the game is for PSN and xbl just it only has local co-op :( I wish I had online co-op

[@haloplayer9855]

he already played it before the lp

[@childofmars9001]

that was perfect .. for my amusement

[@Sobergrey]

Jetpack/Cape is apparently the new Book of Revelations/Battery.
