Climbing gloves disable request.

[Taf79]

Can we have an option to toggle them off from showing up in game for people that don't like using them.

I have lost multiple runs to the climbing gloves and they're not "Fun" deaths or a "Learning" death, I have put off posting this but Iv reached my breaking point about them.

[Ladez]

Can we also have an option to make them work like in Spelunky HD? This change is horrible.

[Ivara Ara]

Honestly i do not see why they just did not make it a toggle option, toggle on and off at will by press of a button. Most of the times i get these bloody gloves i know it will get me killed in the long run.

I seriously recommend learning to play with them, especially now that you can drop down just by releasing the movement keys. I disliked them at first too, but if you can get through the muscle memory of holding movement keys into walls the benefits are worth it.

Get used to them. they are objectivly way better than they were in HD. If you think they are bad then you honestly just havent used them enough.

I don't think climbing gloves or any other item for that matter needs a toggle off switch. If you learn how to use climbing gloves, they'll be extremely helpful. Yes, they can get you killed, but they're also very helpful for when you're low on ropes or run out of jetpack fuel. If you don't like climbing gloves and don't want to get used to them, then just don't pick them up.

pretty much. same thing applys to the rest of the game, if you dont know how to use it you might die with it

Climbing gloves have saved many of my runs, once you get used to them, they are invaluable, and pair nicely with items like spring boots and vlad's cape.

i think its possible with mods

I'd propose simply making them not work if the player is also holding down... and to have the same effect apply to standard ledge grabs as well.

Alternatively, make the climbing gloves only work when holding up.

What situations would you NOT want the climbing gloves? When making precise movements or simply traversing the level. Sticking to things can be annoying and kill you.

In what situations would you WANT the climbing gloves?
To scale certain walls. They're very useful for vertical traversal. But when you scale a wall, you consciously divert your attention to scaling the wall and cannot do anything else.

See what I mean? The climbing gloves are only useful when you make the conscious decision to scale a wall. Make us only stick to walls when holding up. When intentionally scaling a wall, it would still be easy, just hold up when you want to climb. Unintentional sticking would not happen anymore because nobody holds up when they are traversing the level.

Idea inspired by 20XX, a roguelike Megaman X game. There are climbing gloves in that game. If you are unfamiliar with Megaman X titles, the player can slide down walls. Collecting climbing gloves transformed the slide into a stick, which was annoying. The devs remedied this by making you only stick when holding up.

When you want to stick to a wall for certain situations, you can still do so, unaffectedly. While the rest of the game can continue on as normal.

Then that would make it so you couldnt look down, which would suck

Honestly, i would recommend just using them. After you get used to them you wont really notice it.
