Got it, it's amazing.

Yup.

Also, my only complaint thus far is: the climbing gloves feel way more sticky than before, I guess because there is actually more surface to get stuck on? Anyway, tripped me up a few times, but no serious problem.

A lot of my non-Temple, non-Hell deaths now come from accidentally getting stuck on stuff. It's kind of lame. Is there a way to not latch onto stuff?

Oh also, amazing job on Hell. Outstanding art. Awesome final final boss that really fits the story.

The game's way harder than the PC version. Mostly due to a lot of the new content being really instakill happy. Once you're past the Mines, it seems there's only a few monsters that can't stun/throw you in a way that's likely to chain you to death, or just instantly kill you outright. There are some smaller changes, too, that makes things more brutal. The difficulty jump was a pretty big surprise, but I think I'm getting more used to it now.

One thing that I do have to say is that I really hate finding the Black Market. It's my least favorite part of the game, and one I have to repeat over and over. It seems like it can spawn anywhere from 2-1 to 2-3, and the Jungle is even more dangerous than in the PC version. What really makes it tedious is that there seems to be a higher chance in this version of sections being blocked off. If I missed some tiny section in 2-1 that was behind multiple walls, I won't know for sure until I've completely searched 2-2 and 2-3.

Oh and last complaint: I wish the gold counter would go away after a few seconds between treasure pickups. Combined with the health/bomb/rope counters, a lot of the top left of the screen gets obscured.

I knew there was more after the original levels that had been added, but spoiler tags, please.

Or glow tags, which are used here for the same purpose

Is the level generator more of a dick in Spelunky XBLA?  I seem to come across a lot more situations where I have to take damage from falling (unless I'm super awesome and catch a ledge) than in PC Spelunky.

Not sure if the generation algorithm is more dick-like or not, but when you're in a situation where you need to go down and it is a big fall, you can toss a rope and climb down that to prevent falling and getting damaged.

A lot of drops seem to be very close to harmful, but can be survived by crawling over the edge and dropping from hanging

The RNG respects no one.

(You can break a fall with a monster stomp though.)

Yeah, I know the tricks, it just seems that I have to use them now, whereas in Spelunky classic it wasn't necessary.
