Spelunky 2 needed more development time than initially expected this time was used to fine-tune the game and improve environments for added visibility. Unfortunately, Derek Yu later announced on Twitter that the game was not going to be able to make that goal. Ground Divers is a strategy game where you guide a sleepy robot as he mines through the crust of a distant alien world in search of its hidden secrets.
The trailer announced a host of new features to expand on the basic formula fans loved from the original title and set a release window for sometime in 2019. It is considered one of the earliest and best examples of the modern roguelike game.Ī sequel to Spelunky was announced in 2017, almost ten years after the original's release. A remake in 2013 added co-op to the game, further expanding interest in and affection for the title. The game casts players as a spelunker exploring caves and mines in search of treasure while being menaced by traps and monsters along the way. Having higher input lag gives the game time to wait to receive your friend’s inputs so the rollbacks are less frequent. Spelunky 2 is the long-awaited sequel to Spelunky, a 2D platformer released by Derek Yu in 2008. Basically, having lower input lag will cause more frequent rollbacks, which is what you’re seeing and describing as glitchy. This is what I actually advise, because in some cases it can also. Even capping at 60 fps will remove some of the input lag (some, not as much as 59 or 58). Unfortunately, capping to 59 or 58 will make the game stutter slightly. Running it on my htpc- AMD Phenom II 2.5 ghz, 9600gt, 4gb ram. By using a method of 'input prediction' instead of waiting for your inputs to travel to the server and back, youll experience less input delay when playing the game. Rogue Legacy suffered from the same issue in fullscreen until I disabled vsync on the nvidia control panel, which was okay as the game didn't need it. According to Derek Yu, Spelunky 2 uses rollback netcode. 95 of the time you really did commit the crimes youre accused of, but every once in a while youll get blamed when someone steps on a landmine on the opposite side of the map. In Spelunky 1 youre guilty even after being proven innocent. Spelunky 2 is set to release on September 15th, following a delay that pushed it from 2019 to 2020. If you use 60hz vsync, you can cap to 59 fps or 58 fps and it will reduce the input lag. Both suffer from input lag when vsync is on. Although Spelunky 2 is the only one with exculpatory mechanics worth mentioning.
