Spelunky Reviewed in the AV Club

That's it. I've died more than a thousand times, beat it three times, and still have stuff to unlock.
I've also used the person I was trying to rescue as an offensive projectile, shot down a flying saucer with a rock and then squished its parachuting pilot, and stomped on a bee-spitting mummy until it was deader than dirt.
For all the frustration this game has just as many interesting moments. I just hope the unlocking stuff won't take forever...
Speaking of frustrating, I got about 300 points in bastet, anyone beat that?
UPDATE: Spelunky is in version .998 now, for anyone curious. Haven't tried it yet, not sure if the install will erase the old achievements and unlocks.
