The ghost is actually starting to get on my nerves... it's very hard to use the Udjat Eye's locator when you have such a time limit. Maybe make it so that, when the Eye activates, the ghost doesn't come?

[WHY HAVEN'T YOU PLAYED IT YETTTTT]

WHY HAVEN'T YOU PLAYED IT YETTTTT

Why does this game sound really glitchy yet good?

It's not really glitchy. Why haven't you played it yet?

Bug? - I shot a knocked out caveman with my shotgun then he bounced on me and I took damage. Later it happened again with an awake caveman AND I DIED.

Try throwing the [SECRET] at the [SECRET]'s [SECRET]. Be careful with the [SECRET]s, though, as they can [SECRET] and [SECRET] the [SECRET] you should have brought from you from the first level to [SECRET] your hairline.

- how do you open any of the secret doors in the highscore room?
- what are the cups for?

They're not cups, they're trophies. When you get gold, the door opens. Each corresponds to a stat (kills, saves, gold and time).

Oh my... I... I just drove the train.

WHY DO YOU DO THESE THINGS TO ME DEREK

this is the second time I've had to skip a shop because it was impossible to walk in without killing me or angering the mighty shopkeeper

Here's one of the best Spelunky tips I can give you:

In situations like this, stand close enough to the edge of the nearest tile (in this case, the trap) so that Indie will start fumbling; then, press C once or twice. The bomb/rope will eventually drop, causing the trap to be activated. Then you can go safely and get your item back.

(I wonder if doing that here would kill the shopkeeper!)

Not a bug.

* what is the glowing stone in the first cave (from which to access the score & tutorial cave) for?

That's not a glowing stone, it's a flare. You can get some in-game by pressing F.

I'm sorry I don't know what happened !?!?

But I can't see the title screen either? I tried downloading a new copy and everything ..
somehow this black layer is over everything ??

The only way I found the start door is by pressing escape, the fade out actually shows the screen instead of it just being black.

I have the exact same problem sometimes when my computer has been on for a while! Restarting seems to solve it. I also have similar troubles with Terry's Never Opened. My graphics card, if that matters, is an EVGA 8600GT.

Likewise for the occasional odd thing that appears in ice levels.

SPOILERS ABOUT A SPECIAL ENCOUNTER IN LEVELS 9-12 (hover to read).

Can't help but feel that there's little point getting the shortcut to the ice level because they're bastard hard without some of the spiffier pickups. Any chance of hand-holds on the back-wall or something? Like single-tile ladders effectively?

It gets pretty easy once you get the hang of it. Just be extremely careful, watch your step, AVOID the monsters and use ropes and bombs sparingly.

THAT'S SUCH AN AWESOME IDEA!

How come this guy isn't banned yet?

I can usually juggle up to two items to the exit (throw the idol down a hole, grab the damsel, use a rope to descend, drop the damsel somewhere safe, get the idol, drop it further away, get the damsel...). The one thing I miss is being able to hang on to ledges and ropes without dropping what you're holding.

I think I already suggested it, but it would be nice if Indie* could holster his gun or get the girl to hold on to his back while he climbs.

* That's probably not his actual name. It's a loving nickname. <3

I'm sure people are willing and able to jump in for a final page if need be.

maybe give people some binary basics.... i dont know anything about binary!

Here's an easy way to cheat -

Make a little table like this:

128  64  32  16   8   4   2   1
  0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0

Then switch the 0s to 1s to add the equivalent amount. What you get in the bottom line is your number. So 3 is 11:

128  64  32  16   8   4   2   1
  0   0   0   0   0   0   1   1

39 is 100111:

128  64  32  16   8   4   2   1
  0   0   1   0   0   1   1   1

137 is 10001001:

128  64  32  16   8   4   2   1
  1   0   0   0   1   0   0   1

And so on... hope I made it clear enough.

I still don't know what the shiny sculpture inside locked chests are for or how to use it... 
Is there a way to circle through those special items ?

Nuh-uh - items next to the little box are always active.

HOLY SHIT GUYS, I CLICKED THAT LINK AND A MAN IN A BUSINESS SUIT KNOCKED ON MY DOOR AND GAVE ME $50! AND I THINK THE TENS ARE BREEDING!

Just kidding, actually I clicked it and my ears fell off.

I just remapped the bomb and the rope to A and S and it's supermagical.
