This is strange, I haven't changed the bombs or jetpack at all. I'll look into these as well.
Right now:

• Shotgun fixed, now adds 7 shells when picked up
• Single shells appear in jars, you'll have to throw them (the jars) and risk seeing spiders/snakes though if you don't want to waste the shells you have. Appearing pretty often too
• Another secret added (one that everyone knows about, but haven't used that I've seen)
• Jump height lowered a bit
• Working on mattock breaking bug (and not having much luck) and shotgun sprite showing.

No new release yet, until at least the bugs are worked out.

Ah glad to hear it. I think it's due to your change of the shot gun not the bombs...

[Arucard]

Can one of you guys possibly make a video displaying this bug? (one with the sticky bombs) I can't recreate it with the editor at least.

[marsgreekgod]

I can't right now, but I can tell you what I did (and mabey make a video later)

Step one, get jet pack (does it help? heck if I know)
step 2, get shot gun
step 3, get stick bombs, pick shotgun back up.
step 4, take out bombs, throw stick bomb
step 5, say, "huh nothing happened."
Step 6, Throw stick bomb
Step 7 "hey wait why is there a bomb in my arm? AHHH I CAN't Get rid of it! runn!"
step 8 BOOM

[gummybears123]

That looks like an instruction list

I'll be sure to follow it

And wanted posters show Spelunker and not Shopkeep

[marsgreekgod]

gumm is right.. that should be fixed.

[gummybears123]

It's funny, shopkeeper is wanted and tries to kill himself

[Arucard]

OK, the wanted poster shouldn't take but a second. As far as the other bug, please just work around it for now, in the next update you will not be able to hold shotguns at all and since I cannot replicate this bug without a shotgun I assume that's the problem. (It sounds quite amusing however, if you can still put up a video I'd like to see it)

On other issues, it seems I must give up on drawing the shotgun sprite whilst shooting. Even with the Professor's help I've been unable to get it working correctly. It either never shows up, or never goes away. I'll try and toy with it from time to time, but it's eating up all of that and my patience so I won't focus on it anymore.  The "basically finished" release will be out as soon as I get the Mattock breaking shot under control, and any other fixes/tweaks/additions I can.

Please look forward to it!
Oh, also I want to put in some custom opening whatchacallits! So any suggestions post up here OK?

you mean.. quotes?

[Arucard]

Yeah, the opening poem thingy. So anyway, I've done finished the bugs now, so I'm uploading the current release now. I'll put the changes and link in the first post so please check there. 

Next things to change:

• "secret" item needs to be added to item list
• Shotgun needs to be removed from holding item box (appears until next level loaded)
• Cape and Mattock sprites need to be shifted a bit to fit shorter/stockier Shoppy
• Find a good music set to go with the mod, music does not stop between levels now!

Tizime? Bling? Caps? CHEDDA?
Seriously? I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry.

[Arucard]

Ha  ha! That actually comes from Derek's speech patterns of late, he's been quite, well, gangsta! There's some other secrets in there though, so don't give up! (I'm sure most people skip through the transitions without even looking)

[marsgreekgod]

I think a quote about being to old for this would be nice.
