So my Life…

Alright I think I may have mentioned on here somewhere that I’ve been playing Spelunky. I think it was a post from last year to be honest. Well I have groundbreaking news. It’s been over a year since I got that game and up until now, I’d never been able to beat it completely. Not because I suck at the game, but because it. is. flipping. hard. Like I’ve said the game is new every time you make a new run. The levels randomise each time, making it impossible to craft strategy for every level. It took me a half an hour run with my toes clenched the entire final stage. I think I’ve clocked about a good 100+ hours into this game and this was it. I finally beat the boss. I sat there for a little while in utter shock. I stood up with my finger raised in the air. I deserved this.

So that leaves me in my current state. What to do now? The answer was clear, I needed to get all the achievements possible in this game. My journey with this game is hardly over but I feel like it’ll actually consume me eventually.

Now I’m pretty disappointed in saying that this is one of the most satisfying, hard fought, harder earned achievements in my life. It’s not like I can brag about it over an ol’ Wong family dinner but it definitely deserves a place here, the heart of all my misfortunes and embarrassing highs.
