The randomized dungeon platformer simply bought its first gameplay trailer, and whereas it very a lot appears to be like like extra Spelunky, there are some massive new options that ought to shake up the move of the game.
Most notably, there are actually animals to trip, Yoshi model – and identical to Mario’s trusted inexperienced dinosaur, it appears you’ll be capable of cynically use these mounts as makeshift shields and safety from in any other case lethal falls. But you wouldn’t try this, proper? (You monster.)
We additionally get a have a look at the brand new fluid dynamic system, which guarantees to make lava and water much more unpredictable components in your run. Knocking out the tiles under a liquid will now trigger the pool to spill out all around the map, main both to new puddles of water or a lethal bathe of magma.
Level design can also be getting shaken up by a second layer you’ll be able to journey backwards and forwards from, giving every space extra depth whenever you’re exploring.
This can also be our have a look at the game’s forged, with Ana Spelunky within the main position. There’s additionally Roffy D. Sloth, Margaret Tunnel, and Colin Northward – all of which positively sound like Spelunky names.
If that’s not sufficient, we’re even getting some fast glimpses at new gadgets and talents, like arrows that can be utilized as platforms, a teleporter, and (apparently) a gun that fires cats.
This is one other PlayStation-branded trailer, however fear not – creator Derek Yu has confirmed Spelunky 2 will likely be coming to Steam. Expect it someday in 2019.
