Played to completion off-steam, for the record. What a lovely little experience this was! such an interesting feel to it, a kind of nonchalant hopelessness with still some miniscule light at the end of the tunnel. Nothing is super deep here, mind you, but it just has undeniable heart and soul in the execution. Gameplay hasn't aged at all, too - timeless game, has a specific thing it's trying to do and does it well. Some gripes with the difficulty in places, and obviously the biggest flaw is the complete Nintendo Power tip nonsense method of getting the good/true ending, but otherwise, still pretty good. Go play it.
[h1]✅DRM Free✅[/h1] Cave Story is a great platformer full of Indie charm from the early 2000's and every moment left me smiling. Straight away this game is worth it at full price even if there's the original freeware version. If you can get it on sale absolutely go for it. An indie gem and a very quality game. Platforming feels great, what every platformer needs is to make sure you feel confident in how you can move and platform which this nails. One small initial gripe is how it can feel sort of like there's a little delay. While this never impacted how I felt about the feeling of movement and eventually I got used it and it stopped being a gripe and was just how the game felt and played. The adventure itself and levels also feels amazing. Everything has such a nice connected flowing feel to it. It's all simply great and charming and I absolutely love it all. [h2]Steam Port & +[/h2] Usually I would have a separate section dedicated to the Steam Port but it makes more sense to combine these parts together for this game. Pros [list] [*]DRM Free [*]Cave Story+ Options [/list] Cons [list] [*]Cloud Saved Graphical Settings [*]Fullscreen and Sharp mode [*]No Resolution options (bad for windowed mode) [*]Gameplay is tied to FPS [*]Outright removed the Native Linux build. [/list] So a bit mixed here but the fullscreen issue can be worked around using gamescope on Linux. Set fullscreen parameter, use Windowed mode with the Sharp scaling in game and fullscreen looks clear and perfect. Unfortunately I don't know of anything to help with Windows users. And while the game plays perfectly fine under Proton outright removing the original Linux build stings for the people who want to use that instead. None of these issues affect the experience (except the framerate but I would really be surprised if anyone were playing this on hardware that couldn't run the game) but they are QoL issues that can be annoying. Now for Plus itself, you get to choose between the original and Switch version graphics (Wii seemingly being removed and only in the Legacy build of the game). Variety of music choices to choose from (although the Original seems to be missing?). And being able to change the game speed from the Original to Plus. This is great and allows you to choose and customise the experience to how you want and is great to see and part of the port experience. I wish there was an option to be able to change these things on the fly like Halo MCC to easily see the changes better but having the options at all is a Plus. [h2]Closing[/h2] It's a brilliant game, nothing much to complain about gameplay wise as it's genuinely amazing and the one thing that's annoyed me the most is how long it has taken me to get to and play the game.
