    So Spelunky 2 came out on ps4. It's due for pc on the 28th. Has anyone had a chance to play it yet? Thoughts, opinions, reviews? I play pc, so I'm waiting impatiently. I've been waiting for @Deimos to post something since he apparently likes ps4 and Spelunky, but there's complete silence.

    First level looks a lot denser than in classic Spelunky (what I play), looks like my days of 8s per level runs are over.

      I did not play the game, but from what I gather the new one follows the rule of sequels: bigger, better, extended. Not my cup of tea, I like things short and simple. That’s why I liked the first...

    I'm not usually a sucker for cuteness, but Derek Yu basically making characters out of his wife and daughter is super cute. This trailer doesn't quite excite me though, and I think it's because there isn't much oomph in the sound. The sound and music work in the original is an excellent if perhaps underrated aspect of the game and this doesn't feel like Spelunky without it. I'm sure I'll be onboard when I see actual gameplay videos.
