Since its original beta release in late December 2008, Spelunky has quickly become one of my favorite games of all time. Probably #2, right behind Jagged Alliance 2. Anyway, if you haven’t played Spelunky now is the best time yet to pick it up. As of last night, the game officially hit its 1.0 release, along with the exciting announcement that there will be an XBLA version in 2010! So go grab the new version.
Spelunky 1.0
The PC version will remain free, and will be open-sourced in late 2009, at which point I will resurrect SpelunkyTweet!

I'm looking forward to seeing how Derek went about creating random platforming levels. Spelunky is one of my favorite games of all time, too, even if after 200+ attempts I haven't made it to the third area.
Oh happy day!
