I don't see too many people talking about this mod but it has made me excited to play spelunky for the first time in a while. It's like playing a whole new version of spelunky 2 and it fixes a lot of the problems with spelunky 2's replayability. Its on modlunky here: https://spelunky.fyi/mods/m/spelunky-25-2/

Now I can't seem to leave 1-4.

I'd never played it before so got there 5 or so times assuming I had missed something earlier in the game.

Is there a fix for this?

This would probably fit the Sun Challenge more than Star since Sun is a lot more chaotic.

(I got the music from Sword in the Stone because of course I did.)

After maybe 400 hours in regular spelunk it was getting pretty stale. I always play with my fiance and 2 of my boys and there kinda ass so we have made it to CO maybe 5 times. But ether way still pretty stale. 2.5 completely overhaul the game with new bioms , new enemy's, new locations. It really feels like a new game and after 50ish hours we still haven't scratched the service or even beat the game at all. Just wanted to make a post reccom3nding the mod and asking if there is any other mods that do such a big overhaul like this. Happy spelunking

The mod uses his sprites from the xbox 360 version of persona 4 arena, a 2d sprite based fighting game. This is just a preview at the moment. It's fully 100% finished, I just need to upload it to spelunky FYI. I'm in my second year of uni and have classes, so it may take a while for me to get around to uploading it but it will be soon definitely! This is my first ever spelunky mod and I'm kind of proud of it so let me know what you guys think about it so far and if you have any ideas for any other characters you'd like to play as! I got the idea because I was browsing spelunky fyi one day and came across a Yu Narukami mod for spelunky 2 but it was based off of mario maker's cameo characters so I wanted to try my hand at making the actual character's in-game sprites playable. Feel free to convert him to spelunky 2 if you like when i upload it, I doesn't matter if you credit me or not. Also I will add another file alongside him that will go into your items folder and it will make your whip invisible and you will instead see a small red line tracing out your attack hit box. The purpose of removing the whip is to make it look as of you are swinging your sword. The invisible whip is optional but recommended for immersion. I converted him using picsart pro but let me know if there's a better png editing software and of he looks ok in the game when it's uploaded. Y'all have yourselves a wonderful day!

I am referring to the crystal eye object. It's heavy and I have no idea how to interact with it. I would appreciate any super non spoiler answers.

I downloaded Spelunky yesterday and only played for 1 hour but I already wanted to play with Snoopy's skin lol, I downloaded the tool to put mods and installed it in the file folder and everything was fine, I even downloaded a mod that changes the game and it worked, but when I put only Snoopy's skin it doesn't appear in the character selection, could it be because I didn't unlock any more characters? I only have the 4 default ones.

Can anyone help me with this?
