Developed by Derek Yu and made available by freeware, Spelunky is an
Action-adventure, Platformer and Indie game for the PC using the Game
Maker engine. You star as an unnamed adventurer called a spelunker
inspired by Indiana Jones, and a clown apparently, setting out to
explore an underground dungeon. Derek Yu would go on to own his own
company and find another developer by the name of Andy Hill to develop
an updated version now available on the Xbox Live Arcade. Today, we'll
be taking a look at the original game.
