{{SubpageEdit}}[[Category:Spelunky HD]]
There are 20 different playable '''Spelunkers''' available in ''Spelunky HD'' that can be used in all single player and multiplayer game modes.
 
 
Each of the Spelunkers have identical abilities; the differences between them are purely cosmetic and do not affect gameplay.
 
 
Four are available from the beginning, but the remaining sixteen must be unlocked by fulfilling certain requirements.
 
 
Unlocking all 16 secret characters earns the [[Achievements|Achievement]] 'The Entire Gang'.
 
 
A padlock in the character selection menu tells you how many Spelunkers remains to be unlocked.
 
 
In the Playstation 3 port, The Eskimo, The Round Girl, The Round Boy, The Ninja, The Cyclops, The Viking, The Robot, And The Golden Monk all come free with purchase of the game.This means that you no longer need to purchase The Cyclops from the Black Market for $10,000.
 
 
==List of Spelunkers==
 
 
Almost all the Spelunkers will be found inside [[Coffin]]s, most are tied to a specific [[Level Feeling]] while some just need to be found inside the main four areas, the [[Coffin]] page has a better explanation of how Coffin generation works.

==Cameos==
 
*The Blue safari character is based on [http://colinnorthway.com/ Colin Northway], a friend of ''Spelunky's'' developer Derek Yu.
 
*Meat Boy makes an appearance in ''Spelunky HD'' as homage to [http://edmundm.com/ Edmund McMillen's] [[w:c:supermeatboy:Super Meat Boy Wiki|Super Meat Boy]] games.<br />This may be a reference to how [[w:c:supermeatboy:Spelunky|Spelunky Guy]] also features as an unlockable character in [[w:c:supermeatboy:Super Meat Boy|''Super Meat Boy'' for XBLA]] And some others.
 
*The Cyclops is based on the titular character of ''[http://www.storyfort.com What is bothering Carl?]'' an interactive storybook created by ''Spelunky's'' lead programmer Andy Hull. This is referenced in the pop-up prompt to purchase the character when he appears in the Black Market, which reads 'Bother Carl'.
