Mementos achieved in this run (35:23 & 41:11):
"The Max Way Home" Escape Hell after visiting the Worm and the Mothership.
"Red Handed" Leave the caves having personally killed 15 or more shopkeepers.
"Rico Millonario"(for the 2nd time) Leave the caves with $500k in your pockets.
The first 2 were my goals. The 3rd one just happened again and will happen because 500 000 isn't that much on a Hell win.
I went little out of my way to kill shopkeepers especially earlier in the run.
For example 2:40. Didn't do that for the money. That's why no ghosting.
18:50 this is where I had confidence that I have/will have killed enough by the end. And didn't go after that guy.
7:00 that had that "Spelunky death" potential written all over it.
tikitrap → rock → player → tiki trap → player → mantrap
12:30 shortcut finished. You have no idea how hard it is to give up a shotgun for a Doom player.
31:24 was so worried I got stun locked until death there. I already felt little nervous again, because of how well the early run went through Worm and Mothership.
32:45 considering that attack destroys ground tiles I wasn't sure if getting hit by hit kills you instantly. I've since found out that luckily it doesn't. Cool attack (which wasn't in the original).
33:30 this is the part I hate on this run. I had completely forgotten I had the Crys Knife. Not only was I supposed to kill the Horsemen with it. I was also supposed to use it on Yama.
Otherwise so happy with this run.
Gotta still do that in the future.
This mod is basically Spelunky 1 in Spelunky 2.
Which is why I really wanted to try this mod.
For a long time I've wanted to play Spelunky 1 content with Spelunky 2's much better controls.
So far really liking this.
But the custom music does make it feel more like a different game.
There's probably going to be an option (or separate mod) for the original Spelunky 1(HD) music in a future update. I've seen developer mention this on Discord and Youtube comments.
