Would anyone be interested in participating in Spelunky contests such as Pacifist and No Money? If so I could easily make a few mods to force things like this. If you have any ideas for contests or if you have something to say reply below.

I'm in!

Both have been taken with normal Spelunky. The first shows a no-money-run (it only counts the big skull bonus) and the second shows a no-kill-run (the Giant Head being the only kill).

Nice! The contest(s) haven't started yet. The pacifist runs will be taken with my pacifist mod which I will make Olmec not count as a kill (and you can only kill one enemy). And the no-cash will be done in a simple mod i'm working on. I'm trying to think of a few more ideas but can't Sad.

For contests such as these, it might be interesting to make a mod that adds the level-number to the death screen, making it easier to record best attempts.

The contest held a long time ago was a 'get the most money out of the first level of one area' , you could do a second try at that as well. And if your modding anyway, you could also add minor changes to the game to make it harder. Spawn a ghost upon entering each level, for example. Spelunky infinite without items and a 2 bomb/rope maximum for a nice endurance-challenge. The explosive spelunky. Oh, if your going for TLS, you might do a ninja-spelunky: start with the ninja-suit (my favourite upgrade), and only be allowed to get spotted 3 (?) times by enemies. That would be awesome.

Ninja challenge sounds awesome

Oh and shurikans could be instant kills if you hit them in the back so you can do assasinations

Did Endless Spelunky ever get working? Seems that would be the perfect mod for a contest, survival run or boss rush makes the most sense IMO.
