Welcome to the latest installment of Tips & Tricks, my series where I offer up some advice and helpful guidance to new and popular games. Spelunky 2 has recently dethroned it's very own predecessor as my favorite game of all time. I have dumped almost 130+ hours into the title since it's PS4 launch and now have 30+ on Steam already. This video will peel back the layers of the games opening coarseness and hopefully offer some assistance to you fellow Spelunkers out there!

Another tip that I completely forgot to include in the video, for some reason.
- You can whip liquids off surfaces to clear away potential dangers.
Can we please get isaac please 🙏

Can we play together some time?
Dude we have similar rates! 😂
🤣🤣🤣
I can only get to 5-1
This comment made my day lol
11:40 Spelunky HD veteran, I was playing Spelunky 2 for my first time not knowing what to expect. At one session I feel so confident having almost 10 hearts, the kapala and a lot of other equipment and a jetpack. I must have been flying in one of the dark levels where the arrow traps shoot firey arrows. Got hit by a flamey arrow in the back and the jetback exploded and I am instantly dead. Didn't even know the jetpack/powerpack (also the bombs in the shopkeeper for example) can so easily explode. I was like what? What did just happen now??? It's so much "fun" after knowing Spelunky HD to go with a fresh mind on the sequel!
p.s. Just to say there is so much more things to learn, it's interesting how the elements interact more in this one. Not only throwing arrows can catch fire, but if you throw an array to that snake/scorpion that can poison you, you kill it but the arrow if it survives it's poisoned now and you can use it to poison another enemy. Such cool attention to detail! Also, I think the arrow has health. You said in the video if you kill big enemies it breaks. But from my observation, if it doesn't break when hitting simple enemies like bats/snakes, then throwing it 3 times to these enemies will finally break. I might be wrong on this, need to check it again. It's funny when you see a bat near the arrow trap, you expect the arrow to kill it and protect you, but it hits the bat and kills and continues flying towards you. There are so much cool stuff!
Thank you for the awesome comment. Good to see other Lunky vets having a great time with the game. I have been on a major break after literally playing nothing but Lunky 2 for about 7 weeks. But now I can hear the stories and see my friends and other people experiencing it. It's one hell of a journey. Super glad you found the video and I wish you the best on your runs!
"If you save him, he will snipe Vlad out of the air... unless of course Derek blocks the shot" Ahhh... so that's what it is. I wondered why a block occasionally just conveniently happens to spawn in front of Van Horsling to prevent him from hitting Vlad. It was Derek all along! I should have known.
A very well made and helpful guide, thank you. And I really appreciate the multiple spoiler warnings throughout the video!
Thank you!!
Now...if only we can get NL to watch this video....
Lol
egg
Not gonna lie. Penta writes a damn good tips and tricks videos. Also hope everyone who sees this has a berry good day
GREAT VIDEO PENTA! And I honestly want to see more. I know you have literally tons of little secret tips and tricks regarding other spelunky things. Us who are farther in the game would VERY much enjoy that too brother! Thanks again and it was very informative. 3 things I didn’t know surprisingly!
I played Spelunky HD for years beat Yama many times had few million-dollar runs, never knew the ropes could burn.
I didn't know about the tip involving the kapalla and the one wearable so you just did me a learin!
Thank you so much for this video man, I never played much of 1 but watched heaps of 2 on the leadup and have been playing it since it came out on pc, I've been upto Olmec once in the 10ish hours I've played so far, these tips are REALLY helpful!
Congrats on the progress so far! Glad I could help!
15:12, Np man, love clipping moments from the stream, and am glad that people enjoy them and that they can be of assistance! In the name of Science!
LISE best character
all of them are good, EXCEPT ROFFY I HATE ROFFY GRRR honestly i only hate roffy cause of israel blargh
I love her cute playful animations, butt for me I'd say my fav 5 are like Demi, Princess Airyn, LISE, Margaret, and Liz. Also Roffy looks cool AF hehe
The pilot*
Jay is cool
Lise best robo
i havent played alot of HD but when i saw 2 coming out i decided to just go for it this time. but damn 2 is hard. i cant even get to 2-1 xD tips might help tho :D
New to the series and I just got 2 on Switch and omg I'm too old for these games, tough as nails! This video is awesome!
I straight up needed to know some of these! Great video for schmucks like myself! Cheers mate!
I was so happy because I went to Vlad's and got his cape like I always do. And I randomly figured out that the blood was doubled! Upon this realization I got hyped and went to the next level, just to get trapped in a 2x2 by an angry shopkeeper.
Already love this channel
Thank you!
Rewards for kali ive noticed go from random item to skull cup to jelly thing that gives a bunch of hp but i havent gotten further than that also if you start from 1-4 and get the hired hand and go to lava zone there will always be another hired hand on 2-1 or 2-2 and you can put those two on the altar for the first item then put the damsel on for the cup.
Had no idea you could throw down ropes. So useful.
Very good tips!
Just found out about this game series because they're on sale for ps4, and I've been loving Spelunky 2 since I got it. Thanks for the tips!
Enjoy your time playing! It's a masterpiece.
I don't think I've ever done anybody do this except myself but some spike pits have bone piles in the middle and you can simply drop something onto the pile to break it and drop down to grab onto the ledge. Saves you rope or bomb in most cases.
Great video and hopefully this helps me be at least mediocre at the game.
Thanks a lot! You helped me a lot and got me the first two shortcuts (barely!).
Glad you're enjoying the game! And happy I could help in any way!
Curse can be lifted by sacrificing stuff on Kali Altars or using the Ankh
or a certain item from a certain challenge that when you have no ailments (curse or poison) gives 8 hp if you are poisoned gives 6 and cures it if you are cursed gives 4 and cures it and if both gives 2 and heals both.
@@gamesandglory1648 in the temple area
Great video!
This game is so hard for me having not played the first one. There were many tips here and I still have more questions. I want to enjoy this game but damn!!!!!
Amazing tips!!!
The torch is also a great weapon against the quillback boss. Only takes a few hits and saves bombs.
True, though I find you can kill him much quicker and more efficient using just one bomb. You still get a net gain of 2 bombs and 1 hp and is very safe and quick.
Thanks for the tips, mate!
You're welcome! Now go defeat the game. And most importantly, just have fun. It's a special one.
It would be cool if there was some kind of reinforced whip that could whip away lava from a surface and deal extra damage. It would probably be obtained in Volcana
apparently the 4-leaf clover will also make your teleporter range always maximum
Thank you! I am getting better ever day! This is really helpful..
My main issue with Quillback is the first time I beat him, I killed him instantly with a shotgun, and then had no idea where to go, since he hadn't dug any paths for me.
It didn't help that his level was also the dark level.
Hi @PentaHybrid loved your video, is there a way to quick stand up after getting hit by a rolling horned lizard or maybe a totem trap? I have pissed my hired hands sometimes or gotten in front of a boomerang wielding tikiman only to find myself on a death loop. At moments like that I start mashing every button of my keyboard but to no avail, I have died miserably many times after having like... ALL the important items.
I really liked all the video and I've been most of the times taking the Jungle path, but seeing how fun it is I guess I'm going to try going to Volcana more often.
Thank you.
My biggest irk is that success for me seems dependant on getting kapala, and the kali alters seem inconsistent. Wish they'd at least have a guaranteed one in 1-2 or 1-3
Kapala is vital to long term success. Anyone who has high skill at the game would agree. Due to the way the level gen works in 2, I'd honestly recommend restarting until you get a run you like. Don't let people shame you for this.
I was wondering what that drill did…Thanks!
I love the caveman shopkeeper he has reasonably priced wares and sells stuff you will always wanna be carrying he might even have a pot containing a gem he’s a lot more useful then those darn overpricing normal ones
he's also the easiest to rob ;)
@@litapd311 yea I’m pretty sure they can also give you good items if your lucky such as a power pack and such
When it comes to robbing shops with explosive items I just move them to the front of the shop so they are out of the way
Also interesting how you said curing curse could be a massive spoiler. I'm assuming you're talking about the elixir, though i think the more intended method is by sacrificing.
Love this game
Thanks champ! I may be better prepared for Spelunky 2, but I still have my skill issue!
Watching thie video cuz I have spelunky 2 installed on my pc. Funny thing is, i started playing spelunky hd a while back and won't touch spelunky 2 until I finish the whole game, i haven't even beaten olmec yet. I only got around to meeting him a few times. I also discovered th black market, mothership and worm levels. The crysknife is OP as frick. My favorite item in thr game hands down.
"Which as of 3 weeks ago, was my favorite game of all time"
I couldn't agree more.
Correction for the arrow, it wont break for small enemies that die in one hit like spiders or snakes or bats, it only breaks for the larger enemies with more than one HP like cavemen, moles, and lizards. Even if you kill them with it they still break.
Really!? Interesting. I could have swore it wasn't that way.
Jesus man there's no way I'll ever be that good. That's crazy even playing the original you got this shit down
Hello, also love the video.
Something i've been curious about with kali but never gotten around to checking.
Does favour go above 8 or reset, and more importantly, if you on 7 and give the alter a damsel are you wasting 7 favour, or do you now have 6/14
I haven't done enough science. But it does go higher. Table is such 8: Item, 16: Kapala, 24: Rejuvination, Every interval of 8 after is more jelly. But I haven't seemed to reach a cap.
Day-5 Spelunker here; figured out everything naturally besides the ghost shop and CRAWLING DOWN A ROPE ONTO SPIKES BEING SAFE. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCKING SHIT I’VE WASTED SO MANY BOMBS TO GET A CRATE FULL OF ROPES AND EEEEEEEEEE THANK YOU!
A few corrections / tips (regarding the spoiler sections):
You actually don't need to hit Vlad at all with an arrow to kill him. When you hit him, he will teleport behind you. You can use this to make him teleport into a wall, which will still count for Van Horsing (I do this pretty consistently whenever the arrow is blocked).
The ghost shop is always located just above the shortcut door on 1-4, not just randomly within the middle.
Hope these help out!
I'm well aware of both of those.
The Vlad bit with the arrow was a joke because he missed. You can kill him normally too. Hence the twitch clip. The joke must have been missed by you, sorry about that.
I definitely don't believe I said the shop was random. But if I did that was my bad.
Edit: I watched that segment. I never said it was random. Lol, but all good. Appreciate the clarification just in case others may have misunderstood. This was all rapid fire. Didn't want a 45 minute video. Rest assured I'm well aware of all the things though.
So i wanna know am i super unlucky to have to use a bomb or a rope or even both or is that commen because i HATE haveing to waste my stuff
Me watching this like I haven't beaten sunken city twice
I developed a strategy for ghost pots
1. Carry pot to end of level
2. Break pot at end of level
3. Grab the gem
4. Leave quickly
Lord, please bless this video with good treatment by the algorithm. Amen.
Praise Spelunkis.
after doing spenluky HD hell , without getting hit . I still die to a friggin bat in this game.
Thanks for the vid!
Can I ask what controller you use?
Xbox One controller. Couldn't be happier.
@@PentaHybrid Thanks :) I have one as well and I'm used to it but I can't help feeling I want the dpad to be that little bit more "classic" feeling. I think I am making excuses on why I am so bad :D
in the first game shopkeepers are insane
As a veteran, I would like to confirm this
Thank you. A like of course but these are tips and tricks for Spelunly veterans :-). I love Spelunky 2 and had played Spelunky (what you call HD?) and am actually getting farther in Spenunky 2 than in the first one. I encounter those npc's one of which you called parsnip. No idea how to free them though.
Just gotta push the block. It's acts kind of like a door. A ton of these tips are for newer and more experienced players. I'm sorry you feel they aren't.
@@PentaHybrid Well thank you! Will try in a few minutes when I get back on the game. I do so want to get far, already unlocked jungle and volcano levels. Don't feel sorry, just probably because I'm such a stupid player ;-). Love the game though!
@@PentaHybrid A by the way: I did not mean in any way to appear discontented :-). learnt a pile of stuff. For example: did not know you could offer sacrifices. Unlocked that chest with the golden key but did not know what I get: I do know now :-).
@@Bolkiebasher It's a game about discovery and mystery. So it's easy to be overwhelmed by concepts. I didn't think you were discontented. I'm just glad you are enjoying the game. It's my favorite and I love seeing new players come to it! Just glad I can be a stepping stone to offer help!
@PentaHybrid Good! Nothing I hate more than being a spoiled brat on social media :-). Truly love this game in spite of starting levels over and over again.
Ok I didnt know about the ghost shop lmao
Already played the first one but having a hard time on Spelunky 2
Why did you use leprechaun footage earlier. But then when you discussed them you didn't jsuy use the earlier footage?
Most likely sleep deprivation. And me not wishing to repeat footage unnecessarily. Or something.
Good video :)
Did you watch the start?
Oops, misunderstood it
@@simodelfario4739 All good. I kinda breezed past it to be fair.
I wrote that excerpt on the Pot of Gold on the wiki!! Glad to see it made it into the video.
I didn't take any of this from a wiki. This was all from my own playing.
@@PentaHybrid impressive haha
I’ve always called the doggo Monty, is that not the in game lore name?
I don't even have the game but idc still watching this
Now I just feel dumb. I didn’t think to grab the ghost pot and take it with me without breaking it...
Wanted to like the sequel, but I still play the first way more. I think adding too much into the gameplay killed it for me. Looks real pretty.
Wait, how is sacrificing stuff a spoiler to remove curse?
That's not the only way to remove it
The first rule of Spelunky is LYW, "Learn Your Whip". That is really all you need in the world of Spelunky, kind of funny but very true. There are parts in the game that require a rope or two, but most problems in the game can be solved with movement, varying in degrees of difficulty, and the whip. If you learn movement and the whip, you basically have solved the game. The problem then becomes trap recognition and time/timing, both of which can be overcome by MOVEMENT and THE WHIP. You see Spelunky is very simple game. Kappa.
- Good Luck Friends. PS Learn to cook a bomb or two.
Probably for the best you edited/erased the original comment. But for what it's worth this isn't much better. Still kinda coming off like an ass. But thanks for watching.
@@PentaHybrid what was the original comment
dude loves Derek lol
And?
The biggest tips for me was: Almost Everything explodes and always carry something
At 3:01 what the hell is that?
4:45
"Alive or dead"
Maybe this is not the right time to say this but deads give half points to get stuff
I think the celery women from Pajama Sam 3 are named "Veggie Sisters"
Nvm, it's Celery Sisters. Just barely dodged that Humongous lawsuit
Wow, I've been playing since launch, and tend to go Jungle, but Vlads cape double dropplets?! 😲
Yup! So much extra blood!
@@PentaHybrid there's always something new to learn! 😁
Wait. I’ve played Spelunky HD for over 700 hours and I had no idea you could burn ropes.
Wasn’t the remake released in 2013?
No. Was Xbox exclusive for the first year. July 2012
You know what's funny, I've been playing Spelunky for 4 years now, and I've beaten spelunky 2 *once.*
Put the golden skull on kullis thing and you get richer
10:55 I hate this rolling bastard he allways rolls right when I have jetpack >:(
'discovered the ghost shop accidentally' gang rise up
\o/
game got hit by a off screen trap and fell into spikes 10/10
Out of over 50 runs I've only made it to the jungle once, and quillback 3 times. Hopefully this helps XD
somehow on my second ever run i made it through a couple of the lava themed levels and i havent been back since, probably played about 30 runs
@@Echo-vs5ic I still haven't gotten to Olmec but I haven't tried in a while
On PC Coop someone literally carried me to the final area
Ive probably died over 200 times and only got to 2-1. I can't even move without taking damage. I whipped a pile of bones and took damage lmao. Wish I knew how brutal this game was before I wasted 30$ on it
I have hundreds of hours in Spelunky 1 on 360; and I have 70 hours in 2 yet I literally cannot make it past world 2, I've made it to Olmec twice in 2, and never even past world 2 in 1
Excellent video but now I feel like giving it another try even less haha. It just looks like a major PITA.
This game looks like a nightmare to 💯 %.
Video starts 0:58
Honestly though. This dude never shuts up.
So Your Telling me You get curse its over?
not really
curse just locks you at 1 hp
I already spoiled myself so much that only the last part was of use. Also, you need to fix the part with the leprechaun, cause theres no clip of leprechaun.
You should read the text that's on that part. How did you miss that?
My son has Autism.. but he’s a badass at this game tho.. I can barely keep up with him😂😂😂
3 years late but I still find it odd how you waited for people to skip ahead to avoid spoilers but then don't spoil them anyway. I mean, no offense, but if people were looking for gameplay tips, I don't think they'd be too concerned on how you cure curse.
Típ: Hate Moles Burn Moles Don't be a mole
I'm confused why im watching this, I k know all of this
Lol I can’t get past 1-3
I'll never beat olmec
Play noita if you haven’t
the first tip is just wrong your whip is much more useful than any throwing item in the game
