Easy mode

[0Dd1]

Can we get an easy mode? Non hardcore spelunkers like me won't ever be able to play through the game which is really sad.
Also when the game will be available on Nintendo Switch, there will be many more casual gamers who gonna hate that they only will ever see a fraction of the game because only the top 1% capable players will be able to complete it.

Easy mode would be: When you die, you can revive your character near the location you died. Or restart the level where you died.

Sadly I don't think an easy mode will ever be added. There are many reasons for this the largest one being it goes against the ideology of spelunky 2 of being forced into difficult situations and only getting out with skill and planning.

everyone will probably tell to just "git gud"

There is a feature in game doing this, you just need to unlock the shortcuts after every biome.

But you lose all your stuff when dying. That doesn't help.

Easy mode wouldn't change that aspect and you could still play normal mode. Everyone wins.

ok let me think you an answer, let me make your "wish" come true with following rules
no unlocks, no journal entries, no achievements and a sign in "death screen" that says it was a practice run... that would be the easy mode that probably would be the best thing that would be acceptable in community

yeah sure, why not. it's only important that casual players like me get the chance to complete and see more of the game, it's not about achievements or competition.

There are mods that make the game easier without breaking the entire game or giving 99 resources but they arent supported by the devs

[Pebbles]

OR i mean the devs could tone back with the 40,000 new ways to instantly die

That's what the shortcuts are for.

Starting with none of the items you'd get from earlier floors gives you a large disadvantage, compared to whatever you feel the advantage is worth. If they worked similarly to Enter The Gungeon, and you got, let's say, one crate per biome skipped, that would be a lot better.

you don't have the stuff you need to progress when using the shortcuts. so that's basically useless. you need certain items that you only get when you start from 1-1.

simply download modlunky and edit the spawn rates and trap spawns

It seems complicated to be a successful dev of a tough game. But most players here love the challenge and accept their countless deaths.

Isn't co-op making this game somewhat easier?
