Messages upon start-up.

Hey everyone,

Is this common knowledge?
Upon the game's start-up, when Spelunky-Guy is walking through the desert, it displays a message. I saw this my first time playing the game and thought 'cool'. But, I noticed a different one the last time I played. Sure enough, there are a variety of different messages that can be displayed.

So, for what little plot this game has, here it is. Read some of the messages during the start up of the game, and maybe we can piece something together plot wise?

I would post some of them but I can't remember.

If it's anything like the classic version, it's randomly generated.

That is, no legitimate plotline can be made from it.

Or the opposite, you can create your own plotline each play. So when you die say something like, "I'm sorry father.....eeehhh (dead)".

Unfortunately I think most of us just skip the intro after a short time, it would be nice if it started after you begin a game, but that would take a re-write of the opening.

Eh, if people wanna skip it they should have the option to skip it, rather than being forced to sit through it every time. I personally read it every time though, I love the combinations it comes up with.

Ill see if there is any plot

I figured out the tls plotline

A plant is hungry he eats stuff including a dead cow (if you're good enough) he lives happily ever after terrorizing a desert village after leaving the cave

The spelunky is "I wandered into a weird cave and am getting gold"
