Game Maker's Toolkit - How (and why) Spelunky makes its own levels
Added 2016-04-12 18:32:17 +0000 UTCSpelunky will always keep you guessing, by making a fresh set of 16 levels every time you play. In this episode we look at how creator Derek Yu strikes a balance between random and authored levels to make stages that always feel fun and fair - and why it's important that this game never gives you the same level twice.

Hey! Yeah, I wanted to focus more on it as a platformer than a roguelike (though, it obviously is one). I haven't actually played those two you mentioned so I guess I'll have to get to them, and then come back to this topic when I know more! Thanks for the recommendations, Nicholas.
