#Spelunky 2 tiamat update#

This update reduced Olmec's floater's HP to 1 and made him only dispense bombs while the player was below eye level. The first wave of changes was in version 1.15.0a.A video depicting this version of Olmec can be seen here. Olmec's second phase was substantially different around Spelunky 2's launch each of Olmec's floaters could withstand 3 HP of damage before breaking, and he would dispense bombs regardless of how many times he had performed the attack and even if the player was above him.

Olmec's first phase is similar to his behavior in Spelunky HD, although he is much faster, can leap higher and farther, and does not spawn enemies due to the absence of the red gem on his forehead that once did so:.The cavemen do not actually exist in-game, and despawn when the cutscene ends.Olmec then jumps up and crushes the last third caveman who was too slow to run away before the battle begins. Chunks of stone begin flying off the statue, revealing that the stone statue is actually the real Olmec, spooking the cavemen. Three Cavemen are shown worshipping to a stone statue of Olmec.A short cutscene plays when entering Olmec's Lair:.See: Guides:Defeating Spelunky 2 Olmec Trivia These backlayer doors are perfectly spaced out so that the spelunker does not need to align Olmec with a door even if he is perfectly spaced between two backlayer doors, both may be entered.Īfter entering the backlayer, the Spelunker may ascend to the top and obtain the Ankh found there. If the spelunker manages to lure Olmec into the lake of lava at the very bottom of the area, He will be considered defeated, and his head can be used as a platform to enter one of the many backlayer doors just above the lava as he sinks downward. Olmec then repeats this attack after performing two tile-destroying ground slams.After destroying a row of tiles, he opens his mouth horizontally, releasing a UFO from each end end of his mouth.After landing on the third floor, Olmec begins to jump towards and attempts to crush spelunkers in the same fashion as in phase 1.

He then leaps back up into the air with new floaters, resuming his bomb attack. Destroying both causes Olmec to fall to the floor, destroying two rows of tiles below him.

Olmec's floaters have 1 HP and shatter if attacked.

After completing three bomb cycles, Olmec does not fire bombs again until both of his floaters are destroyed.

If a spelunker is below his eye level, Olmec's face opens horizontally across the eyes before launching three bombs at varying speeds from both ends of his face.

Olmec initially floats towards the direction of the player until a tile impedes him, where he switches directions.

After landing on the second floor, Olmec hops into the air, revealing two purple floaters beneath him, which he uses to hover across the air in a similar fashion to the Hoverpack's.

If the target is on top of him, he will leap towards whichever end of his head they are closest to.

When Olmec jumps up, but does not get above the player he was specifically targeting, he does not destroy tiles he lands on.

If Olmec manages to get above them, he stops in the air for a moment before falling straight down, crushing anything and destroying a row of tiles on the floor below him.

If the player approaches, jumps towards their direction.

Shooting Olmec with the Plasma Cannon reflects the shot back at the attacker. Olmec is indestructible and cannot be damaged by the Mattock or explosions from objects like Bombs. Olmec functions exactly like a wall/platform, and one can cling to his top ends like a ledge, or to the rest of his body with the Climbing Gloves. Olmec has 3 different phases, entering a new phase after reaching the next floor in his lair.
