I forgot to recommend this. I have played the free version like more than a decade ago. A true pioneer of Indie game. I bought this to support the developer and also reliving my nostalgia. If you like a shooter platformer, get this game!
I decided to check out this game after hearing that it was one of the inspirations for Toby's Fox amazing game "Undertale" and oh boy... this game was an actual blast! Such a cute and captivating story, characters, art style and music! I 100% recommand this game! It's such a little gem!

Cave Story is one of my favorite indie games! Even today, it should get the recognition it had back in the day. Also? why is there no macos port?
This is a story about caves
Ive played this little game many times for the most part of my life, the freeware back in the day, the ds version and then the 3ds version. The ost and the sfx are still untouchable. The gameplay is just as good and the hidden ending is still as hard. Cave Story is the father of modern indie games and it will always be one of my favorite games.
I have a great love for Cave Story ever since I first played the game on the Wii back in the day. The gameplay is tight, the soundtrack is absolutely superb, and the story is compelling yet mysterious. With multiple endings, plenty of weapons, upgrades, and quite a few bosses to tackle, you can sink a fair bit of time into this game. Highly recommend!
밖에서 공짜로 할수 이씀 근데 개재밌음 공짜로도 하고 돈내고도 하네
Has been saved. I originally gave this version a fairly negative review. As a player from the original fan translation, to the DSI version, to when this first released, up to the Switch port this was arguably the worst way to play it due to numerous outdated features. A month later they dropped a beta with a full release that is slated to drop shortly after that not only brings the features up to par with the Switch release but improves the graphical quality significantly(new water physics are perty). From one of the worst ways to play this masterpiece back to being one of the best. It sucks that it took over 10 years but glad to have another excuse to 100% this indie gem! Old review: ~~Cave Story is an absolute favorite of mine and despite what my hours say I have played this game religiously. It's not easy to admit but this is probably one of the worst ways to play this masterpiece in it's current state. Less features than any of the current releases, limited options to scale or full screen the game, and cloud saves did not work properly forcing me to completely restart. If you're able to I'd currently recommend the Switch release as it's usually cheaper or just download it for free from the fan translation. For $15 I shouldn't have to resize the screen at launch or have to restart the game because I completed a challenge run.~~
