1	* FandomNod: The sequel has tons of references to the first game's community, ranging from visual references to actual lore.
2	** One notable one is in Tina's character description: she's described as having been an unknown adventurer until the feat of using [[spoiler:the eggplant to defeat Yama]] suddenly catapulted her into stardom. This is a reference to the status of a streamer named Bananasaurus Rex, who gained fame after being the first person to complete the [[spoiler:eggplant]] challenge run solo, while using Tina as his character.
3	** The wall art in the Udjat Eye chamber references 5 Let's Players who are known for playing ''HD''; each of the creatures corresponds to the username of them.
4	** Monty's name came from a fan nickname started by LetsPlay/{{Northernlion}}.
5	** A possible name for a shopkeeper is "Kinni", referring to ''Spelunky'' speedrunner Kinnijup.
6	** As noted below on ThrowItIn, the existence of the Ear shopkeeper in post-release versions of Spelunky is due in part to this.
7	** Another notable one is that the game's credits has an entire thanks section dedicated to the community for ''HD'', from prominent let's players to speedrunners and even a credit for everyone else not listed who enjoyed Spelunky HD. This trend continues in the Special Thanks section itself!
8	* ThrowItIn: In early versions of ''2'', one possible shopkeeper name was erroneously named "Ear", rather than his intended name of "Earl". Initially, this was fixed in 1.19.8c, but due to [[MemeticMutation fans finding the typo endearing]], Ear was later canonized as a shopkeeper name that can actually appear (alongside the "proper" name of Earl) in patch 1.20.4a, and shopkeepers named Ear even have unique graphics with larger ears.
