PC gaming’s very own indie-themed Smash Bros. just added the guy from Spelunky, who I now know is named Guy Spelunky

You know, Guy Spelunky. The guy… from Spelunky.

PC gaming’s very own indie-themed Smash Bros. just added the guy from Spelunky, who I now know is named Guy Spelunky

My favorite part of Smash Bros. isn’t even really the fighting. It’s seeing how in the hell you take characters like Minecraft Steve, Pac-Man, and that scum bastard dog from Duck Hunt and turn them into viable fighting game characters. If you feel the same way but wish there was more PC gaming representation in the platform fighting genre, I have great news for you: Guy Spelunky is here.

If you don’t know Guy Spelunky, he’s the guy from Spelunky. If you don’t know Spelunky, it’s the game that Guy Spelunky is from. Sorry, I meant to say that it’s the universally acclaimed roguelike platformer we dubbed one of the best platformers on PC—and the guy from that game is now in Fraymakers, an indie take on Smash Bros. with a PC-centric roster. Developer Team Fray first formed while working on the browser game Super Smash Flash 2. Guy’s joining the likes of Octodad, the Impostor from Among Us, and Hat Kid from A Hat in Time.

Guy was revealed in a trailer that dropped last Thursday, and as you might expect, his moveset is stuffed with little references to the game he’s from. He brandishes a whip, spike boots, shotgun, freeze ray, and so on as he sends foes flying.

Bombs appear to give him some neat set play potential, and the fact that he recovers by climbing up a rope is a cute touch. It seems like those last two items come in limited supply, though, so he might have a rough skill floor. If you’re coming from Spelunky I assume you’re used to dying repeatedly anyway.

If you’d like to spelunk into Fraymakers itself, you can check out the game’s Steam page.
