Cave Story. In development for 5 years, this freeware sprite game has won a die-hard cult status. For a damn good reason to. If you are looking for a game which combines mega man, legend of zelda, metroid, and super mario, then Cave Story is for you. Combined with a surprisingly deep and compelling story line, about 4-5 hours of gameplay, multiple guns (which can each power up to 3 different levels, and 3 different endings, youve got yourself a damn good game! I also LOVE the soundtrack for some reason. Those sick retro video-game style songs really strike a chord in me (pun intended) Its an old school game, meaning the graphics arent the best but they would have won awards when it came out. Its fun as shit i reccomend everyone tries this game forreal Site: http://www.miraigamer.net/cavestory/ Download: http://www.miraigamer.net/cavestory/csdeluxe.php oh and its 100% free
Sweet, I'm with you on those old-school tunes striking a chord within, some of the greatest soundtracks ever put to video games were made by squaresoft back in the golden age of the snes. Gonna have to check this out soon.
wow i hate to dig up this corpse of a topic but this game is really good to play stoned and I'm surprised more people on here haven't played it. especially if you have a gamepad then the nostalgia really kicks in. the soundtrack is AMAZING. i nearly finished the entire game high... when i first stepped out onto the outer wall (pic below) and the clouds were flying by and that music started playing. so enjoyable. i'm going through a bit of a nostalgic phase at the moment though bought myself a cheap as shit gamepad. super mario 3 is a great experience stoned.
