Northernlion Plays: Spelunky! [Episode 42]

[@Pixelates]

Northernlion: "Can we murder the shopkeepers before they murder us." *sees video about to end soon* Me:Nope.

[@MrAMP1520]

I really like the way you structure these episodes cause I never can tell when your gonna die until the last run, just thinking time-wise, however really love this series even though i don't have time to watch every episode, keep it up :D

[@2nd3rd1st]

Play Spelunky says: Pin Cushion - you are not allowed to trigger arrow traps with inanimate objects or Monty. Ghostbuster - wait in the level until the Ghost appears, then make it to the exit. Impotent Indy - you are not allowed to use the whip. MoMoMonsterkill - kill every enemy in the level before moving on.

[@juantendo8]

You were talking about how good the mattock was before you left it and tried to bomb your way to Monty. *Facepalm*

[@OdinasOyb]

@flowiepanda Fowards is an alternative way to say Foward. They're synonymes, if you prefer, thus being both correct.

[@SwartzBruder]

Wow... I woke up at 3am and wanted to watch a spelunky video of northernlion's, and the moment I turn my comp on you upload one... Damn Northern, you're awesome.

[@kakundaovsc]

This is one of the funniest videos of your spelunky series

[@vordrax1014]

When are you uploading your Spelunky series for the world to heckle?

[@TH3DARKSHAD0WPR0DUCT]

this was uploaded like 5mins ago give it time to render properly for 720 or 1080p

[@PapaBear816]

There is a rumor floating around that the new version will be on PC at some point.

[@Mustardoish]

Very good lost run! Loved it. Hope he realized that shopkeepers are no gods but mortals.

[@m9105826]

I have to ask, and maybe I've missed it in a previous video, but have you experimented with using the ghost to make gems on the levels into diamonds? It's a really easy way to rack up money.

[@MrJevans05]

Hey NL, I don't know if anyone has told you this before, but if you exit the level that you found the pickaxe on, it will then have unlimited use. It can't break. Hope this helps :) Also great videos, keep em coming. Thumbs up so NL can see.

[@VulxaniSolas]

I don't care how much he "failed" in this video. Quoting my favorite Twisted Sisters song, and adjusting his play style ON THE FLY makes this a success in my book. Northernlion, I know I've criticized you before, but if you reply to this, I take it all back. I respect you ability to change your play style, as it reminds me of my own.

[@SerPinkKnight]

Why does he never throw his weapon down to trigger arrow traps? He always puts it to one side and then goes around the trap.

[@OTCGreen]

Ryan, your knowledge on olympic sprinters pleases me.

[@justinb93]

He is going to do coverage of the new content and possibly some more PvP after he gets back from PAX according to his most recent FAQ video.

[@MrNinjaskills101]

Does the shopkeeper calls another shopkeeper when he dies or gets angry?

[@DaVinci9423]

Thanks nl for making my day.

[@MCXone]

Northernlion's play style: *keep your finger on the run button and don't fuck this up - too late*

[@Asafesnail]

He says moment of truth. I look at the time and smile :)

[@andrea9342]

Can you do a marathon episode?

[@Regulith]

"I still don't understand the whip range [...] because I use pot so often" The Northernlion Story

[@Kisuneko]

I think it only doesn't brake if you don't use it on the floor you get it

[@brandon99902]

i think you mean the remastered version as the pc one is the full version just with bad graphics and to ansew the question most likely not for a long time if at all

[@umbaupause]

will there be a film based on the book too?

[@mcassasin100]

what we learned this episode: if you build your shop in front of an arrow trap, expect to get shot some times

[@instinkt900]

Just want to say I look forward to your daily Spelunky videos. I always have a good laugh every episode. There's defenitely a healthy dose of schadenfreude in it, but it's also nice to see someone else struggle with what seems like something that should be simple. Spoilers, it's not! Keep up the good work.

[@icantthinkofanamez]

NL, i recently look up how to go to hell and beat the other boss and i realized that it is going to take at least 50 more episodes for you to be good enough to do that considering your progress right now.

[@Viperr101]

"One person told me..." More like 500 people, and then he leaves it 10 seconds later. Niiiiiice.

[@JDizzlington]

You should try to take the key to the end of the Ice Caves, for old times' sake.

[@amantheosm117]

Yeah, he said that in the video.

[@ProblmSolvd]

These mistakes are why we love Ryan :) If he did everything perfect, we'd envy his skill, instead he fails often and we get too feel good about ourselves :) It's also like walking a child grow up, after a lot of mistakes, we eventually feel proud that he did something right.

[@antiMatterDynamit]

nl if you dont get sticky stuff how are you going to defeat anubis and anubis 2? a run when by the icecaves you dont have spider c*m is not gonna end well jsut try to get as much as you can from that white powder

[@Komnen0s]

NL, you should try going for the "Public enemy" achievement. I think its where you have to take down fourteen shopkeepers in one playthrough.

[@Minecraft33151]

That was a very awesome last run!

[@defminerva13]

"I planted a bomb on that dude's fucking face....NO NO!!!" Had me in tears lol

[@kawabanga]

day 1 without a new spelunky video, it's starting to get to me man... i need my fix!

[@noahskrepnek2182]

possibly the first use of the word droll in a video so far??

[@dawatchng]

Anyone else hear a little bit of static in the video?

[@xXsoulzbladeXx]

would that also work with officer jenny?

[@BadWordHater]

Out of curiousity,WHICH Pokemon series? Since there are so many of them.Haven't seen the anime btw.SEEN Yu-Gi-Oh though! And Yu-Gi-Oh GX! Man,that was a good series,both of them.I just wish in GX they had included both the REAL last episode of Season 3 and also all of season 4.From what I read on wikipedia they NEED to.

[@HeadB0xF1]

The devoleper said that there's a high chance of this coming to pc.

[@newfiebangaa]

Expendables 3: Shopkeeper Shotgun. Wow, that one shopkeeper helped you out against Grandfather Frog. Then the Black Market...it was total warfare. Shame this version was not on PC.

[@joespams]

Did I ever imply that you did say he had said that?

[@chaosvii]

The quality options are kinda weird for me. 240 or 480 only.

[@Endrian]

Sweet mercy, a new episode this early? Very cool.

[@AGrayPhantom]

Anyone else notice his voice fades away between levels? Me thinks that's when he takes a drink...

[@Cinkom]

he did that level already

[@MercMercury]

lol Another hilarious video Ryan. I think you are on the verge of a breakthrough sooner or later (I'm assuming later since you will be going to PAX soon :P) You may not be the best Let's Player in terms of skill, but you definitely rank as one of the best when it comes to commentary. After doing my own crappy Let's Plays I really don't know how you manage to make every video interesting even though we've seen you die to shopkeepers 30+ times now lol

[@Raeve_Noir]

Alright Ryan, it's time you learned another way to deal with arrow traps. Notice when you crawl over an edge you flip over and hang from it? If you do that on an arrow trap it will fire without hitting you. No more backtracking to get something to throw at any trap you can stand on.

[@zombolt123]

wheres next episode :(

[@JunionPintal]

NL gonna be posting this whenever I remember to until you admit you know this/have tried this in a video. But have you ever tried holding up while pushing attack? Or use, or whatever you want to call it. I know for a fact that on the PC version if you hold up while pushing that button (or the bomb button) you throw up in an angle. Also you can hold up and use..while over a chest or crate..to open it without attacking or throwing what you are holding.

[@chaosvii]

Huh, must be a quirk of getting to the vid so close to when it goes up. Refresh fixed it after enjoying the death-fest that is Spelunky!

[@teddybearmuderful]

I know the original is, but are you talking about that or this version?

[@pokemasterRav]

same because the manga comes out earlier

[@Jukantos]

THIIIIIIIIIS. I want this version on PC :(

[@verter28]

whats with the description? did the sub boxes break?

[@Tzekiel]

I had to take out "It's A-okay in my books" from my Northernlion drinking game for safety reasons

[@MrItalianmustard]

Wasn't Jenny always moving between cities, though? Nurse Joy and the Shopkeepers are always in a building with something to offer. Shopkeepers offer deadly weaponry, destructive explosives, and life-saving ropes. Nurse Joy('s) offer a healing service, computers to cram your Pokemon into, and a place to trade your Pokemon. I personally see more a resemblance between Nurse Joy and the Shopkeeper.

[@webpisser]

y use a bomb when you have the pick-axe at 7:00? Even more if it is true that never breaks afterwards...

[@mhSANE]

Are you gonna do Dark Soulds Prepare To Die Edition? - Because I really enjoyed it when u played Dark souls. :)

[@inolim8894]

they where still stomping on him when he died.

[@SoyUnGanador7]

I totally agree. I do play the game, and it can be frustrating, but something good to do, is every couple runs, or when you start to rage, just play one where you do something fun and not be so serious. Like for instance, he could mess with shopkeepers or try new item combos like the Web Gun + Spring Shoes. Just my two cents.

[@XxAbnormalSlothxX]

He already did that and got the secret character

[@BeastlierIguana]

"I still don't understand the whip range. Probably 'cause I use pot so often." LAWLZ

[@BillyPhDProductions]

Northernlion, you always seem overcautious about piranhas. In some situations it's almost necessary to bomb out the pool they're in, but you can also jump into the water and whip/shoot them as they swim at you.

[@gage969]

you should record more ksp

[@Silverfishization]

Hey Northernlion are you going to play Dark souls again, now when its out on the pc? :o

[@BreakRaven]

Yeah, except that when he did it first time, he crushed the pickaxe with the idol boulder.

[@globox123456789]

It's processing! Seriously, people, KZbin is now how old?

[@JujuShinobi]

why is Isaac once every TWO days?

[@caiissa]

You did good with those shopkeepers, man. I'm happily not surprised you're getting better. :D

[@teddybearmuderful]

Will this ever release for PC?

[@poketosonic88834]

Yes, but I think it's an 8-bit version; the original.

[@MegaBoris1994]

as a fellow xbla spelunky player, dont worry about people telling you your mistakes they dont understand how it is to play the game and even if they do, they dont understand how to play the game and talk

[@FrontOrRear]

People forget, I always instantly make my videos fullscreen and after it's finished I move on to the next vid so I forget to like some videos, seriously man, not everyone can remember.

[@Nmddyo]

Good point:D

[@0Silvertooth0]

that shop security arrow trap!

[@Washingtonfan85]

NorthernLion, I love you.

[@LilJuulie]

i love your face for puting this up late thank you soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much i just ran out of things and i see this :D

[@TRITACOS12]

I'm a PS3 & PC Gamer and yes I used to play Minecraft but I also play Mirrors Edge (PC), Left 4 Dead (PC), The Binding Of Isaac (PC), Portal & Portal 2 (PC). So Don't suspect that all we are are Minecraft players.

[@TheUSASpy]

Northernlion tells us how it doesn't break and he can use it for getting into the black market. Ditches pickaxe and wastes a bomb.

[@Entr0p1k]

NL, relax, you are still rushing like a madman. You need to take to time to think. Also, never forget that you are going to die MOST of the time, it's just how Spelunky works. If you let it get to you then the game is going to get old really fast. None of us want that to happen because we love watching you play.

[@DavidLeeLewisM]

Northernlion buy a lot of items from the shop early on. Buying the climbing gloves will allow you to get a lot more gold and will pay for its self. Spike shoes allow you to kill large enemies and get their gems. Think about that northernlion.

[@jakaja456]

y u no 720p :(

[@12345zaim]

KZbin be processing, I be crying. :-

[@Odellelectric99]

Yeah,in like a year I think it is

[@TheSmithingz]

A question, can you get Spelunky on pc?

[@axzaxz2092]

if you press down and then walk off the side you hang on the ledge

[@Kisuneko]

It already is on pc

[@CrystalCassiopea]

'Can we murder every shopkeeper in the black market'. Well considering there was only 20 seconds of the video left...I didn't hold high hopes...

[@WigneyR]

Where is KSP ????

[@MarioGuy2802]

In a couple months my friend.

[@RyanSAtom6]

He should just go for the plasma cannon at the alien mothership

[@punchaface1]

well sleep...your gonna have to wait till this video is over

[@DudeWithGreenEyes]

I just got killed by a shopkeeper : the Northernlion story.
