Apparently Derek Yu's explorational platformer Spelunky is finally out of beta, and he also has plans of releasing a complete remake on Xbox Live.

For those of you who have missed Spelunky, check out this vid or any other Let's Play on YouTube.

I haven't played enough Spelunky to notice any differences between this version and previous releases but apparently it contains "some new surprises" so post if you notice anything new.

You can find it at spelunkyworld.com.

I seem to like the Japanese approach to this game.since this game seems to be lossly based on Spelunker.

Spelunky is very different from Spelunker. I much prefer Spelunky as it seems more action-based and less linear. Anyway, I had downloaded version 1.0 of Spelunky a while back and I managed to get the trophies that I couldn't get before. Getting all gold trophies reveals an awesome new surprise, indeed. I wonder what sort of differences the Xbox 360 version will have.

Spelunky is amazing. I love it a bunch.

But yeah, the 360 version is apparently supposed to be pretty different. He doesn't want to make a port or anything, and I think he wants to make it different since Spelunky for PC is already there, free, and Spelunky for 360 will cost money.

I read something like that from the guy, at least. I forget his exact words.

But yeah, awesome game. Haven't beat it yet, but yeah.

Achievements!

I hope he doesn't change too much for the xbox. I mean he can actually just port it and have it for free but ofcourse he would want some sort of income from releasing it on a console. Theres like 3 games on xboxlive that you can download for free. Spelunker looks too slow for my liking. I will try spelunky and see where I get

spelunky is ana amazingly indepth game. the only problem with it is it takes time o show exactly how in depth it is so people sometimes play it and go 'ah its not that great' and put it down without seeing more.

plus version 1 has been out for a month and a half
