This is probably the greatest custom map I've ever played. It had the perfect mix of speed and strategy, without being prohibitively difficult. Kudos to you, amazing level pack.
I feel you've nailed what a kaizo level is all about, imo. It's not just a very difficult level for the sake of being difficult, there's a clockwork pattern to every action that looks as challenging as it is to play.
Not only did you perfectly show what a kaizo Spelunky HD level can be but also taught be so much about the mechanics of the game, I never knew you could do such cool things with the web gun of all things or even the ball and chain!
To add to the last guys pitch: It's also a roguelike, where if you die, you start the whole game over, but Spelunky uses this well, because it has so many unique mechanics, surprisingly hard enemies, deadly traps and secrets that if you fail, it's not in vain, you have learned something and knowledge is really important here, I recommend going in mostly blind and trying to make sense of stuff by yourself! And yeah, it's hard, hard to hell, so be ready to be patient with this title It also has achievements that make it even worse, it took me like 70-80 hours to complete a certain achievement... you will know what I'm talking about if you care about them achievements
Thank you for the kind words. No plans for hell currently. I have enough leftover ideas to maybe fill one level, but all the best ones made it into the pack.
@@GMJ7320 thats a bit agressive for no reason, not everyone has to be an expert on the game i know a lot about the game and i even forgot that was a thing that you could do
Nothing is stopping you. In fact there's a little easter egg room you can reach if you do. Of course if you die you would have to go all the way back through 3-4 to get it again.
This pack was made with the Frozlunky level editor. It's an unofficial mod that ties into the game to control level generation (among other things). sashavol.github.io/Frozlunky/editor/
What game is this, like ik it's Spelunky, but is it 2? Or HD? Cuz I have Spelunky on my ps4 and it doesn't look like this is this just another version of it
This is Spelunky HD, so the middle game in the series between Spelunky Classic and Spelunky 2. Not sure which one is on the PS4. Some graphics may look a bit off since the game wasn't really designed with custom levels in mind.
Oh huh, you're right about the download. The site must have gone down. As for applying the xml file, you first need to download Frozlunky and get it connected to the game. After that I remember it being pretty straightforward to open the editor and load the file, but I don't remember the exact steps.
@@Gliperal Damn, I was hoping I wasn't going to need Frozlunky. I don't use Windows, and I haven't found information about using it on GNU/Linux. I guess I'll try it myself through wine or Proton. Thanks anyway :3

First time I’ve seen a Kaizo level described “not prohibitively difficult”
The web gun and boomerang was probably the most creative challenge I’ve seen in a spelunky custom level
I feel you've nailed what a kaizo level is all about, imo. It's not just a very difficult level for the sake of being difficult, there's a clockwork pattern to every action that looks as challenging as it is to play.
Bro the web into the flying boomerang was the coolest shit ever
I mean, spelunkey is all about thinking fast and cheek-clenching platforming, so this is pretty cool.
after every single level I was left mindblown, this is the greatest custom level pack I've ever seen
Got this in my recommended somehow, did not disappoint! This was great!
No way! I got this on my recommended too!
@@caiharp76 Same here
nice pfp my friend
@xspeedyer you too! I took the screenshot it in like 2012 and now I've had it for so long that I can't change it anymore.
R.I.P baby penguin in 3-4 your sacrifice was needed for the greater cause

Really expected it just to be that first level in the caves, and then it just continued. Incredible stuff.
This man is criminally underrated
Came here for the kaizo, stayed for the soundtrack
Amazing work
This was fun to watch and made me laugh, the commentary was interesting too. Thanks for sharing this!
a m a z i n g map, definitely has some cheese and alternate routing in it, but wow. love it.
The music gameplay synch at 7:50 was immaculate
This is probably the greatest HD kaizo map I've seen. And the greatest person to do one.
This is so good it feels like I’m watching a TAS somehow
This is real son!
This is just astonishing , no words for what you just completed can describe my admiration
6:10 ayooooooo iji ost, 2 of my favorite games in the same video, and both with my favorite soundtracks, happy to see that people still remembers iji
There are so many mechanisms show-cased in this video that I didn't know existed... amazing...
Great song choice man! I especially appreciate the Iji :)
This was insane to watch. Very very nicely done!
10:30 *you bloody monster!*
Very cool set of levels. I haven't even played Spelunky, but this has made it look a lot more interesting to me than I would have previously imagined.
this is my first time seeing this game and i feel like i already love it, really glad i watched
very challenging platformer which it hides with its cute artstyle, this game is fun but man starting out its rough 😆

The ball and chain level was so sick!!
I will always be amazed at how dedicated this community is to torturing itself.
~Random Commenter Mentioning An Unrelated Game~
this gameplay is cracked. I will never be this good, but that donst make it any less entertaining to watch.
I like your taste in music. Iji and Jets'n'Guns ftw.
7:50 You synchronize so well with the music.
Awesome platforming skills. This is so satisfying to watch
I'm terrible at spelunky, so this video made me REALLY anxious as I was imagining how many times I would fail trying to do it
this is how the skips in spelunky 2 look like to me
also this is some of the sickest, coolest stuff i've ever seen in spelunky omg
hiii eltio
@@Chromeno hiii chromeno
ive never been so nervous to watch someone play spelunky
god damn amazing, and smart custom levels. And extremely high skilled player 👍
so cool, also good music in background :)
amazing..any miss and you're done for
5:35 Ayyy, not do these levels have the gameplay of a well-designed Kaizo hack, but you even found the room to include a fuckton of munchers!
7:50, epic music synch
hearing that first song sent me down a nostalgia trip
wow this looks fun
No no, this looks like fucking hell
insanity at its purest form
jesus christ, haven't heard someone use the IJI soundtrack in forever.
My brother showed this to me and I’m so glad he did.
Insane skills
Me: oh lol this doesn’t look too bad-
Me 2 minutes later: *jesus christ dude*
Well, that was legendary.
That's the most inspired custom level I've ever seen. Are you gonna do a kaizo hell DLC?
Thank you for the kind words. No plans for hell currently. I have enough leftover ideas to maybe fill one level, but all the best ones made it into the pack.
You deserve more subs I subbed.
How cruelly clever
you can cheese the powder keg at the end of the first level by doing a very precise whip.
I love the inclusion of the vvvvvv OST on the video
8:45 Didnt know I could do this
Wow... simply wow
Why is bro so GODAM craCKED
This is amazing
The ideas in this map are very original but it looks very hard!
If you can you should make an extension to this map in the hell area
Based iji soundtrack
My anxiety on this vid is insane
Yeah. That was amazing.
ok what!? I had no idea you can carry those ufo's xD
Really cool!
holy shit this is so cool
well done!
OMG I didn't know you could make orange frog blue!
The game has been out for this long and you still didn't know??
@@GMJ7320 I don't have to play it every day. I just won Olmec once.

@@Konomi_io ik it's just one of the first things I saw when I entered the spelunky community
Works in Spelunky 2 too!
I ain't gonna pass 1 stage at all 🤣lmao but real great map you've created ❤
Imagine if the actual Spelunky music went this hard
7:50 music sync
What the song name?
7:44 no spike shoes and yet he can hurt the yeti?
Yetis aren't immune to stomps; just whips.
Bro it's the perfect Super Meat Boy x Spleunky crossover
Lol the fact that if you messed up youd have to start back from mines 1
What's stopping us from taking the plasma cannon to the temple?
Nothing is stopping you. In fact there's a little easter egg room you can reach if you do. Of course if you die you would have to go all the way back through 3-4 to get it again.
@@Gliperal neat!
Why is VVVVVV music playing in Spelunky?
This is crazy !!!
Jungle is like my average jungle
look, if I'm going to talk about the difficulty, it reminds me of the normal levels of this game
I didn't know you could create custom levels! How?!?!

this is fun
Still more fair than base Spelunky.
very cool

The download link is gone, could you upload elsewhere?
Nevermind, I've got it through web archive. I just don't know how to apply the xml file.

You're telling me people play this for fun?
3:26 bm entrance
WoW
Awesome fucking video
Nice
Imagine showing this to a splunky noob
(Me who also never played splunky and only watched it)
Cool
that was fuckin awesome
Gotta say I'm not beating that one
Holy shit
What the fuck man this is insane i
But why
