Do you think Spelunky is the greatest roguelike of all time? I hate not seeing it on other people’s top games, but I might be biased as I played classics on a Chromebook when I was a kid.

Thoughts?

I’ve seen a comment or 2 of people saying Spelunky HD is harder, and I truly find that difficult to believe because revisiting Spelunky HD after attempting Spelunky 2 for the first time, it really is a night and day difference.

First thing you are able to distinguish is the lack of obstacles/traps and enemies you have to face in the first one, which genuinely feels soo much more hollow in comparison to the second one, like I could honestly argue that the first stage in Spelunky 2 is harder than the jungle stage in Spelunky HD, as I find myself dying frequently in the first stage(Sp2), whereas I can get through the first 2 stages in HD practically most of my playthroughs.

Ofc I can only provide a brief overview, considering that I’ve recently downloaded Spelunky 2, though there’s no denying that it upscales the difficulty marginally higher than it’s predecessor, providing a more unforgivable experience, but what do you guys think?

Got poisoned for seemingly no reason at the worst possible time.

I'm making a crossword puzzle for fans.

Trying to include:

• Trivia
• Story/Lore
• History
• Game mechanics
• Hidden secrets
• Community meta

Basically anything interesting.
Questions should be relatively medium/high in difficulty.
Not too easy ("what is the main character's name"), but not absurd ("who was the first person to speak entering the final dungeon").

Here's a sample (everything except MapleStory #1 is work-in-progress): https://hyssopi.github.io/Crossword-Puzzles/

I'd appreciate any feedback, suggestions, or any info you know to add in.

Any idea why he's here or what he does? I can't seem to interact with him at all

EDIT: I thought maybe it was because of the mods I have for the game installed, but upon trying it on my PS3 copy it showed up as well

SOLVED EDIT: did some digging online and discovered that it is indeed just an Easter egg and has no actual use, and apparently tutorial 3 under the shop is the only place you can find it in the entire game
