This is a fantastic game! I remember playing the WiiWare demo a long time ago and I've been absolutely enthralled with the game since! it's unfortunate there will not be a sequel but maybe that's for the best.
This game is truly amazing, It's unique and appealing in all aspects. It's a classic and extremely interesting choice above all. I completely recommend it.
An extremely good game when it's not reminding you that it was made in 2004 by a Japanese man.
I used to play this on my Wii, but I really struggled to get through it as a kid. Playing it again as an adult has been very fun!! I love the game's plot, the characters, and the game itself is beautiful to look at, even 15 years later. I highly recommend this game!
A classic game, one of the first really big indies. Having said that the publisher Nicalis kinda screwed over the developer, and since you can get the game for free you may want to consider getting it either for free. The Switch version is also more feature complete if you want the version with the most stuff in it.
As for the actual game. It's a run-and-gun metroidvania with a good variety of weapons. It's not overwhelmingly difficult (unless you want it to be) and can be beaten in a sensible amount of time. The movement is quick, snappy and responsive. The enemy variety is perhaps a little low, but the main draw of this game is the boss battles, which are frequent and varied. You zip around the environment swapping weapons in order to deal with changing tides of battle and environment types, and as combat goes on your weapons grow more powerful, so it encourages reaching a flow state.
As for the narrative, it's an interesting adventure with likable characters, but the tone can be a bit all over the place. I don't think I would count that as a negative necessarily, but it certainly has the feeling of being written by someone who is not a "writer". There are moments of humor and moments of great tragedy, but they don't really feel like they belong to the same story. I'd argue that's part of the charm though, and it's not a badly written game, just odd.
Cave Story is one of those games that I think everyone should play, it's a classic game made with passion by someone who cared deeply about it, and given there are so many versions and so few barriers to playing it, there really is no reason not to.
one of the first computer games i ever played. i like curly and sue because they are cute.
There's not much to be said about Cave Story that hasn't already been said. It was a great game in 2004 when it released and it's still a great game to this day. With all the indie platformers that have followed in it's footsteps, it tends to seem like cave story has been overshadowed in recent memory, however those who play it will be rewarded with one of the best and most important indie games ever made. The original is and always has been free and easily accessible online, with the paid version only adding a remastered soundtrack and art style, difficulty options, and various challenge and alternate game modes. Whether these are worth the additional price is up to you. Regardless, Cave Story is a masterpiece every fan of indie games should play at least once.
Even two decades later, I can see why this game is so influential. Cave Story makes use of its short runtime by being constantly filled with fun moments and charming characters. I used the doukutsu-rs mod for modern quality-of-life improvements.
The presentation is charming, and the action is fun and challenging.
I love this game to bits but just download the freeware version
20 years and still a classic, one of my personal favorites, but I say just download the freeware version instead, preferably an NXEngine port for modern systems, for the reasons below:
- this version adds updated graphics (including animated portraits and proper widescreen support) and two new music soundtracks (one is from the Wiiware release), controller support as well as some challenge modes based on fan-made levels. That's all pretty neat but whether it's "15 bucks for a free game" neat is up to you.
- the Switch release from a few years back added multiplayer as well as some graphics updates and QoL changes. You would expect the older Steam release to get an update with these features but that still hasn't happened yet. There's always the chance Nicalis might fix this but they've had about 7 years now so don't get your hopes up.
- there are rumors that the creator, Daisuke Amaya/Studio Pixel isn't being paid for the Nicalis ports of the game because they stole the rights to the IP from him. This doesn't appear to actually be the case though. In fact, they're still keeping in touch with each other as of writing. That being said, Nicalis is still a crappy publisher so you might not want to support 'em regardless.
I could go on and on about Cave Story any day, which is why I flagged this as a positive review, but unless Pixel works with a new publisher to release another version of the game (fat chance lmao) you won't be seeing that there.
Has not aged well at all, many features are outdated or lack refinement. This game is very important as a concept but as an actual game it is mediocre
game is really fun so far for such an old game, they should've made it that the game doesnt default at the stretched resolution because i was so confused at the egg place because i couldn't the the bottom of the map
Genuinely one of the best games I have ever played. Inspired many games and you can see why. Killing Ballos without the health pot made it really feel like an actual curse was broken. It was very fun though
pioneer of indie games, some of the best platformer run and gun feel i've ever played, interesting story with deep characters and funny dialogue, as well as horrifying scary moments that make you go what da hell
daisuke amaya you will forever be famous and loved
nicalis i curse you forever, do better
The story didn't do it for me, the slippery physics can be very confusing and all cutscenes are unskippable. Still, once you get used to the physics, it's a solid platforming game. There is a lot of love in the details here, and I appreciate that. Overall, it's ok.
100% achievement completion is really difficult because of the time challenge achievements. Completionists, prepare for some very demanding speedruns. Everything else is quite chill.
Um ótimo jogo, pois já era um ótimo indie :) Recomendaria comprar o port?
Depender, se você quer apoiar o desenvolvedor original que fez o Freeware em 2004 -- Daisuke Amaya -- sim, eu recomendo. Se não, jogue os ports que a comunidade fez e de graça, o conteúdo extra é desnecessário e para mim afeta a experiência (em partes).
/CONS/
- O remaster e a versão famicon das músicas originais não me soaram bem, se você gosta de uma retrowave/remix ou de um remix estranho em chiptone (algo que a trilha original já satisfaz) não tenho culpa.
- As skins, tanto ade alta resolução, que parece que pegaram um filtro do desses emuladores de SNES e aplicaram o 4x, não me agradou, alguns redesenhos parecem que tiraram a fofura que era os personagens antes, lembre, menos e mais quando falamos de pixel-art, algo que o Amaya conseguiu com proeza.
- Por 25 conto fora da promoção, pode ser desinteressante, ainda mais tendo o mesmo jogo de graça de 2004 e refeitos pela comunidade.
/PROS/
- As skins natalinas e de halloween são lindas e muito fofas.
- Tem mais referências de gatos nas artes da skin de alta resolução. :3
- Os desafios são uma adição legal.
- O Co-op funciona incrivelmente bem para um jogo stand-alone.
Awesome game, but the original version is free AND the current publisher from whom you buy it here, Nicalis, does not compensate properly at all the original dev and artist, Pixel, who made the game all by himself. If that's not bad enough, the ports on other consoles like the switch have a lot a QoL Nicalis just didn't bother adding to Steam, a real neglect of the userbase if you ask me.
Simply put, do not waste your money here; rather grab a freeware copy and look for patches that fix with recent features. Godspeed !
one of my most favorite games, i bought it to try get all the achievements
Best indie game ever! Holds up super well!
Can't keybind.
I can't imagine it would take more than an hour for someone to implement, but I'm not going to download some github files I find on Reddit to get there.
It's literally a free game. What did I buy it for? Refunding.
my favorite game back when i owned it on the wii
game was originally a freeware game and now the guys that remastered it just take all the money from the person that actually made the game and also the switch version is better and they just decided to not add the stuff from that version because they're lazy but the game is very fun
For better experience, you can copy the data folder into other cavestory engines like Doukutsu-rs or NXengine-evo. Achievements won't work though even if you copied and replaced the CaveStory+.exe file with Doukutsu-rs.
a charming little game with a cute little story. the controls are slippery, but they feel pretty good, the progression is fun for the most part and the mimigas are the cutest things ever. my only gripes with this game is the inconsistent level design, backtracking sections (bushlands, sand zone) and the sudden difficulty spike if attempting the best ending, the game turns from fun hard to bullshit hard very quick. all in all i really enjoyed this game, (played with doukotsu-rs).
it certainly is a story about a cave
el jueguito de la robotsita
Everyone should play Cave Story. It’s an absolute classic, and you can even snag it for free at cavestory(dot)org.
My first time playing Cave Story coincided with my decision to binge the Chris Chan documentary. The crushing difficulty of Cave Story paired with the unrelenting cringe of the Chris Chan’s saga seared both into my memory forever.
If endurance is the measure of greatness, then I’m officially a legend after surviving that week.
Ok get this so I'm stuck in a CAVE and this is my STORY but in all seriousness the only regret I have purchasing this is purchasing this from the evil indie Corp aside from that cave story is my FAVORITE game like ever the overall vibe and music in this game is honestly beautiful and I hope the REAL creator daisuke ayama is having a wonderful beautiful time right now
there's a few new things like an easy/hard mode, wind fortress, and the sound/graphics options, which are quite nice, but you don't miss out on much by just playing the original game instead, maybe even with a custom engine, as other reviews have mentioned, if you felt so inclined.
it's not bad, of course, it's still cave story, albeit a bit faster, but i'm not sure if i'd recommend it over the original version. maybe if it's discounted, though, there's also the issue of the publishers potentially having a few problems themselves.
One of the greatest indie games. I like the part where you fight Gabriel in the Gluttony layer and he references DMC 3. Don't know what that had to do with caves, though.
best game ever
Probably the best platformer ever gameplay- and story-wise. Replay much?
f nicalis for leaving this game to rot btw. i advocate for the piracy of every game they've published because you know damn well the money isn't going to the original devs
What an awesome soundtrack.
One of the best games I've ever played, and easily the hardest one I've ever 100%. Lots of moments I contemplated quitting because of the difficulty but I stuck it out and I'm still shaking from having just finished it. Non-stop fun the entire time. Awesome music and characters. Choose between 3 different soundtracks and old or new graphics. Buy this game or download the FREE version and play it NOW!!
Comentario Analítico: "Cave Story+" (Doukutsu Monogatari)
En Diciembre del 2004 ocurrió historia, estrenó la primer gran revelación Indie de nuestro medio, Doukutsu Monogatari (Cave Story), de forma gratuita y a manos de una sola persona, Daisuke Amaya ("Pixel").
Cave Story fue y es todo lo que un título independiente debe ser. Un juego artesanal, carente de pretensión económica, hecho en casa y por mero amor al arte. Es la máxima expresión de lo que ser independiente representa.
Tuvo un par de iteraciones posteriores, véase Cave Story 3D para la 3DS y Cave Story+, que estoy reseñando ahora mismo, publicado a precio completo por Nicalis en PC y con un ligerito contenido extra, véase logros, dificultades y la opción de alternar entre tres bandas sonoras distintas (Una de ellas es la original) y dos estilos estéticos distintos (Uno clásico y otro remasterizado).
Estos añadidos se agradecen, pero a Nicalis se le fue de las manos y empezó a reclamar los sitios donde originalmente se publicaron las versiones freeware y sus traducciónes hechas por fans. Desde el vamos vender este producto, que fue originalmente producido con la gratuidad en mente, es una pésima idea de cara a tanto Studio Pixel como el consumidor.
Para los que quieran probar la versión gratuita, denle una oportunidad a doukutsu-rs. Y si quieren apoyar a Studio Pixel, jueguen Kero Blaster y/o 春と修羅｜Haru to Shura.
¿En conclusión? Historia de los videojuegos.
A sweet indie game originally created by ONE person! Pixel did a spectacular job creating a world full of life and personality. The characters you meet, the challenges you face, and the bosses you beat up are made with lots of passion!
worth buying on sale, but you can also just get the real cavestory for free at cavestory.org. u can also play it on roblox and abunch of other stuff
.
I can't recommend this game for a number of reasons.
The game suffers from a lot of early-era platforming issues, like insta-kill spikes, and super fast crushers. I sort of enjoy the levels of the guns, but losing gun energy (ie gun XP) due to getting hit is kinda dumb. Even worse are rooms you enter that reset your xp to 0, meaning you have to level guns all over.
There's a few weapons you can only get through trading your first gun for, and if it were only one gun, this could be excused, but it really sucks to learn you missed out on a cooler weapon because you've already traded in your gun.
Near the end of the game, you get put in gauntlet-like scenarios, with no saves or heals to speak of (save for one, one-use item), and re-doing a section you've already done multiple times is frustrating.
Although the story is a little interesting, the fact that you only find out the true story is by the most obscure chain of events to save one NPC, and doing a literal hellrun to find out more could definately have been handled better.
The one positive thing I have to say is that the game is short, and doesn't drag on too long, even for a sort of Metroidvania-esque game. This just isn't the game for me.
0/10 no Huzzah!
on the flip side, decent character sprite updates and the choice to have a few renditions of the music is good (~~New sucks, Chiptune is good~~), if the freeware version is a little too crusty for you this works pretty well.
This has been one of my favorite games of all time. I have bought it more times than i should admit and each purchase was never a regret. I will willingly give this developer more and more money, what he was able to achieve by himself (both game and music wise) is nothing short of genius.
It has a decent story with multiple endings, but the value of this game lies in its charm. From character designs, enemies, even the locations have charm and mind you it all takes place in a cave!
At its core is a metroidvania that has stood the test of time and will continue to do so.
I love this game!
Hello fellow gamers,
This game is life-changing. 10/10 would recommend to all folks who breathe.
Hell yeah and that's for true and trucity.
THIS GAME IS THE INSPIRATION FOR MY OWN AND IS THE BEST EXAMPLE OF AN RPG PLATFORMER OUT THERE. GOT PLUS AND THE OG SO I COULD MOD. THANKS, DEV
Short yet fun game. 10/10, own it on every platform.
.
The PC port is garbage.
Getting your controller to work is a pain and it will always feel janky.
The controlls are really floaty and the change from joystick input to digi-pad input has to be mapped manually.
Besides that, the story of this game is fairly well written and engaging, I love the way you progress through the story by doing oldschool fetch quests without a questlog, that really makes you read the dialogue and gives you a feeling of involvement!
With a little more polish this could have been a true gem.
Terrible game design, I should have bought the switch version
Oh my God why are these screenshots so stretched
I love my wife Sue
