Cave Story is an
amazing and
free game created by this Japanese guy who calls himself Pixel. It's a Platform-Adventure game (think Metroid or the recent Castlevanias), and is really addictive and amazing. There are tons of secrets and things to find. The game is incredibly coded, I'd say it even surpasses the quality of most modern commercial games.
The game has a pretty cool story as well. You start out as this little dude in a cave with no knowledge of anything around you, and as you go on you learn more and more about your surroundings and the back story and whatnot. The game has three different endings, and quite a handful of bosses. The game is decently lengthy, itll probably take you well over four hours at the least in your first run through.
Platform-wise, the game was designed for Windows, however, it has been ported to
Mac OS X and
Linux (though it also runs fine in WINE!), and even the
PSP,
Xbox and
GP2X! There's also
a Nintendo DS port in development. All the console ports are all homebrew, however,
a commercial PSP port is in development that will feature enhanced graphics and maybe some other things.
Included here is an installer I made of the Microsoft Windows version. Have fun!
