ELECTRIC ANT ZINE BLOG


dispatches from members of the extended zine crew

I'm waiting for Derek to post about his new baby...

...but this is what I spent 4 hours doing yesterday:

The fucking raddest and most frustrating shit in my world right now, SPELUNKY!

(PS: Nope, this is not me playing. But I am similar in skill level and rampant FAIL)
 Derek, post something properly about it here, please!

I just realized that the main cave theme sounds a little like Stronger by Kanye West

Started playing this just now... man I'm failing pretty hard too :C In like the first level I accidentally smacked the chick with my rope and drove her into a pit of spikes. v_v It's a gorgeous and brilliantly designed game.

I am in love with this game. For reference, my Statistics screen reads, PLAYS: 157, DEATHS: 157, WINS: 0.

I've basically gotten to the point where I can pretty consistently get to level 3 or 4 and make about 30K in gold, but have only gotten to level 5 (the jungle levels beginning) about a handful of times. I am too impulsive and not-careful and this game PUNISHES you wickedly for that. That said, the procedurally-generated rooms are still exciting and stressful even after 150 plays.

Fantastic. I want Derek to come and do a proper post (or duplicate his latest post on derekyu.com) and share the game here.
