Pretty darn good run all around up until a brief but deadly mistake the Ice Caves.
Spelunky Lesson of the Day: Although the Cape is very useful, you're as good as dead if you don't time it right in dangerous situations.
3:52 - Thought I had sticky bombs, but I didn't, which caused me to accidentally throw a bomb against the wall. Caused me to waste some bombs to recover the damsel for the altar.
9:40 - Nice recovery! Ripe for taking to the altar for the Kapala too!
10:25 - It was quite satisfying to be able to kill two shopkeepers in a row with the boulder. I don't often get to do that, and as a bonus I didn't even lose the vault gems!
10:40 - I could've converted those to diamonds, of course, but I wasn't sure how far the boulder carved through the level. If I was a little more cautious I would've realized I did have an escape route after the diamonds, but in my haste I just grabbed what I could.
14:39 - I never knew, but apparently exploding frogs can be converted into regular frogs even when they are in the countdown phase. That one just happened to be punted by the tiki trap into the nearby water to cool off.
15:10 - Apologies for the brief pause, had to take care of something.
30:20 - Ack, what a frustratingly stupid mistake! I undid the cape when I shouldn't have, and it resulted in an instant kill on spikes. It's particularly bad because I likely could've recovered a shotgun as well as invigoration (from the damsel and many nearby yetis) on this level, likely nicely setting me up for the Temples and beyond...
