As a huge fan of the original version, I'm loving the HD edition so far. It's a whole new game with tons of new content and challenges. I might sink even more into this masterpiece than in Binding of Isaac (and it's a lot more ragequit-inducing/harder to survive, even in the first levels..)

Yup ! Currently trying to beat the game the hard way... made it to the city of gold and stupidly died there.

I haven't played it yet, but it definitely caught my interest. As far as I understand the game is kinda like "Terrarria minus the building/crafting", right?

It's nothing like Terraria. I'd say it's more like Rogue Legacy but underground and with less slippery controls.

Yeah, it's pretty much the game that inspired the modern roguelike trend. Nothing like Terraria at all.

I have been enjoying it. Even if I have rage quit a couple of times.

Yeah, I'm playing it. I feel like I still like Isaac a bit more, but this is definitely up there, though it's different since it's a platformer at its core.

This was my main game for a while back in 2008. I beat it twice. Well, technically once. The second time I beat the main boss and went through the door to the victory sequence I had a sticky bomb stuck to my shoe, so I exploded offscreen and it counted as a defeat :P

I love this game

She's Ed - a character from the anime Cowboy Bebop. Highly-recommended, btw.

Made it to the city of gold again, couldn't find the Necronomicon to access hell... went to fight Olmec anyway, had enough bombs to make that battle a piece of cake, ended up in lava because of a fucking snail bubble. This game rules.

I'm playing as well. But since there is a controller support problem, i'm waiting for a fix. PLaying with keyboard isn't so fun.

I don't have it, but I'm highly interested on Spelunky and Rogue Legacy (The Binding of Isaac is one of my favourite games).

Spelunking is an english word. Also, the game largely pays homage to the Spelunker game on the NES.

I played some version of this a year ago, really liked it. Would buy the HD version if I had money to spend. Probably will wait until some good deal and then buy it.

I also have very little to go until binding of isaac platinum god :D

This game reminds me about Spelunker, a Nintendo game when I was a kid :)

It pays homage to it. And it's a much better game by far. Spelunker's only still got ironic appreciation in Japan at this point.

Loving it, trying to make sure I don't miss a single Daily Dungeon and judging by the scoreboards, my friends are doing the same.

I played the original a lot so I went to go check my stats 540 deaths and 2 wins! I bought the new version on 360 a few months ago because I couldn't wait anymore for the PC release. Haven't played it as much as I should have, because I really love Spelunky.

I played the Xbox demo about a year ago. It was pretty fun. I was going to buy it until I encountered the ghost that chases you and insta-kills you if you stick around too long in an area. It kinda put me off since I like taking my time discovering/collecting things, but I guess I'll buy it if there's a sale on Steam.

A lot of people are put off by the ghost, but it actually adds tension to the game, you have to make quick decisions, go fast enough, but be careful enough not to fall into traps.

"A terrible chill runs down your spine."

I panic and run into spike traps/enemies whenever this happens even though he wouldn't appear yet, it really adds lots of tension and anxiety to the game and is a huge part of its difficulty (otherwise some newbie could just take his time, take all of the loot and kill all enemies without any kind of pressure, too easy..)

I believe there was a mod that removes the ghost from the original version, but where's the fun in that?

I understand, I felt tension avoiding the ghost at all costs on numerous occasions. I usually take my time exploring a game when I first play so I'd probably look for that mod, but would turn it back off whenever I'm looking for a real challenge. I'll give the game another go if there's a sale, regardless of the ghost being in it.
