More Deaths Than The Descent

Posted by Jamie Concepcion On July - 30 - 2012

Spelunky is a DAMN good game. It’s hard, sure, but when you succeed at anything within it it is extremely satisfying. Plus, a lot of your deaths(and there will be a LOT of deaths) just end up being humorous. Unless it’s frustrating, they can be frustrating.
