Really loving the music (and the rest of the game). Awesome job Andy, Derek and Eirik.  |

It is one of the best games ever made and you will think so too. |

So Derek now that you have sold out, are you going to spend the rest of your life giving interviews discussing the philosophy of video games and never make a game again?

Or will you do what Jonathan Blow is doing and make another game?

Best avatar awards ever.
I really like the changes to the physics, though I'm still getting used to throwing strength.
Also, pugs only is the best way to play.

I played through to the end of the trial (start of the Jungle), and I must say I really, really like the improved controls. I'll probably hold out for the eventual PC release, though. Oh, and one thing - hanging onto a wall below me while holding a rock causes me to be hit by the rock. Is that normal? I don't remember it doing that in the original. My pet rock has killed me more than once.  |

I don't have a xbox but I'm still happy about the release because it means Derek will be able to organize some competitions now  |

What a game. BRUTALLY hard though, even harder than spelunky. And yet less frustrating*! Super goddamn cool.

Just wanted to chime in and say congrats derek and company. Me and my roommates are giving it a thorough co-op play session today and enjoying it immensely so far. I too echo the thoughts of others in this thread and think the new graphics look great ( i played the PC version previously). Good job.  |

This is a pretty fun game, nice and polished too, I'm just playing it with my brothers in co-op (they're bad at games which makes it even more amusing). So Derek, are you going to spend the rest of your life giving interviews and never make a game again?
I doubt he's doing a 2Dboy, it was obvious he was starting to prototype new games when he made that GM 8.1 thread a couple of weeks ago. |

Dammit, it looks amazing. The merry graphics and jazzy synth music are a departure from the retro-ness of the original, but i think they mesh well, and give the game a style and feel of its own. Actually, i sense some sadism to it, the player dying over and over in gruesome ways to a happy tune with colorful cartoony blood blobs splashing all over the place. Like getting stabbed with a candy cane. Much less gritty art-wise than the original, which had a cold and brooding feel to it.
I love the fact that, unlike in the original (probably due to limitations of the gamemaker engine) stuff happens off-screen. It looks like you can toss a bomb several screens down or have a rolling boulder go offscreen, and still have full-blown mayhem happen.
So, will there ever be a PC version? I have been reduced to watching lets plays on youtube, due to my lack of a Xbox360. It really looks amazing, want to play it.

I just found out that you can pick up the harmless little animals. Awesome.
Also the twitches after you die on spikes are really disturbing.
