  1. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    I made a mistake in the black market that almost got me killed. And then I made a mistake in the black market that got me killed, but it was okay, because, you know, the ankh. And then the mistakes just kept piling up.

    I jumped on some spikes like a dummy.

    Now that you mention this, I think that this was a repeat daily. I remember watching a Nick and Chris stream where that caveman was on the left for one of them and on the right for the other and thinking it was strange at the time. I can't remember which day it was though.

    I accidentally triggered an off-screen arrow trap which set off a shopkeeper before I was ready to. I managed to kill the shopkeeper only to flub running away from the ghost.
  5. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    I decided to murder the first shopkeeper, but it did not go so well.
  6. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    Pretty lackluster run, ended in the black market to a stupid mistake. The thing I'm more excited about is I finally achieved a no score run in this goddamn video game!

    I stick a shopkeeper with a bomb, but he still manages to make a heroic leap and shotgun me down
  8. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    I got myself trapped by a ghost. I just needed to make a decision about what to do a little bit faster.

    Nice run today. There was a mattock in a crate that you ignored on 3-2, which would have been a safer way to gain access to the gems on that level, not sure if you saw it. I liked how you dealt with the giant spider on, what was it, 1-2 or 1-3? I can't remember. It didn't cross my mind to use a rope until I saw you do it. I should probably have thought of that.

    Had a fight with a giant spider that did not go well at all for me today. Also, this might be unwatchable again, obs is still dropping like half the frames. I've been playing with the settings and I think I've got it figured out for tomorrow though.

    Hmm... that's a good question... I think I'm somewhere around 80 hours on steam? But I've also played some Spelunky on xbla. I would guess somewhere around 100-120 hours all told? Man that sounds like a lot now that I think about it.

    If you're wearing a cape and pick up a jetpack, you put on the jetpack and drop the cape. Edit: There was also the jetpack in the black market you could have picked up

    New high score. I broke a million! Also, longest video ever... Edit: ugh, looks like obs was dropping a ton of frames. not sure why.
  14. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    Welp, today's black market is total bullshit.
  15. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    Congrats man! I wasted the ankh early on, but I made it through the mothership.
  16. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    Just a low random chance to get special music afaik. Didn't do well today. Mistakes were made.
  17. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    More of a pimp when it comes to the damsel.

    You get one heart per kiss, so when there's a kissing booth you can buy as many hearts as you have money for.
  19. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    Wow, that lucky snake bounce at 9:20ish with those spikes right there. Was surprised you didn't buy a couple kisses after all that! I'm enjoying watching you steadily improve at this game, good run today.
  20. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    Happy to have redeemed myself from yesterday's horrible run by beating Olmec today. Would have been set up nicely for hell if I hadn't wasted the ankh to that dumb fish in the black market.
  21. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    Today's daily challenge was a dupe of Nov 12. I knew it felt familiar, so I had to check. and Nov 12 for comparison
  22. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    This starts on 1-3 because OBS was doing terrible things, so I had to restart the stream a couple times. I don't think going to the mothership was a bad idea, but I need to be better at dodging the alien queen's laser blasts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFWke-Okz7U Edit: right around 23:00 I sneak past a shopkeeper to get to the exit, but man was it close.
  23. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    I used to feel this way, but now that I'm used to them I prefer having them. They still screw me up occasionally, but they offer a tremendous amount of value in terms of mobility and giving you options that you wouldn't otherwise have.
  24. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    That poor golden firefly you whipped on 1-2...
  25. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    I found myself in the black market with no bombs or ropes and probably 4 or so shopkeepers still alive. Decided to make a mad dash toward the exit and *almost* made it before dying right next to the exit. With the ankh wasted, I decided to head to the mothership once again.
