MSXdev'17 - The MSX Competition results are in and the winners are...

Once again it's time to give a shout out to the MSXdev’17 competition as we've recently found out, not only are there a lot of awesome games to play, but the competition is officially over with winners announced! Yes indeed after all this time featuring every game in the competition, we are pleased to say that XSpelunker won in the MSX Classic category, ΧΙ∧∃Χ (Zevimodoki) in the MSX Freestyle category, and XSpelunker and Draconic Throne share the MSX Community Prize!

XSpelunker - Spelunky inspired MSXdev'17 entry is rather nice indeed

We've put aside the Amstrad, the ZX Spectrum and even the NES as now it is time to mention a fabulous 7th entry for the MSXdev'17, it's ' XSpelunker ' developed by Santiago Ontañón (Brain Games). If you love the arcade exploration platformer of Spelunky, then you are in for a treat with this latest entry, as not only does it feature procedurally generated levels, but there's items to collect, platforms to jump across, vines to climb, and even nasty scorpions and piranhas that need to be either avoided or blown up or stabbed.
