This game is like Spelunker and Nethack's sweet sweet love child. The goal is to progress through each stage with your tools in hand gathering the most treasure. You will die. A lot. The game is loaded with traps, falls, spikes, armed shopkeepers, ghosts, bats, snakes, more bats, and worse things than you will possibly imagine in your lifetime.

And you will love every moment of it.

I played through the tutorial. Seems good, awesome music and animation.

Can't stand controlling it with a keyboard. I'll play it when i get a joypad.

It gives me a lot of blank screens.  That's about it =<

I like.

Play it out of fullscreen first. Also make sure your all up to date. Usual suspects etc.

I've gotten to Lv. 8. That's without using the shortcuts. I die at like 6 whenever I use the shortcut.

Shouldn't shortcuts make it easier?

There's some gear you miss from early levels. The Udjat Eye, especially. Helps you find Black Markets and other hidden items. Plus you can get some money and health before the hard parts.

This is pretty cool.

It's hard as balls though, partially due to the clunky-ness of the controls (down+action to pick up stuff, up+action to throw... why can't there just be buttons for those??).

Then again, I think I can change my key configs.  Also, it probibly plays better on a gamepad anyways.

Oh shit, I just got to a jungle level.  hard.  as.  piss.

That is all.  The dark levels are also hard.

[Eschatos]

Try Triangle Wizard.  It's a lot like Spelunky, but Nethackier.

Downloading. Glad I have a controller from all the complaints. :o

[KorJax]

It's not that bad with m+k once you get used to it.

[Eschatos]

Holy shit

Welp, I guess you beat me for that daily run.
