Freeware Gameclub #2, Cave Story Options

[Darth-Paper-Boy]

The game:

Cave Story is a charming sort of shooter similar in some respects to Metroid. You'll hunt for items and secrets as you blast your way through environments. Unlike Metroid however, it has a variety of characters and a more laid out story rather than sorta looking for it yourself, as was the case of the last Gameclub game. This is another Japanese-made game built by a one man team that managed to snag the attention of western audiences when a translation patch was made by Aeon Genesis; a site well known for it's work fantranslating quality titles. The game eventually met enough success that it was released properly on such services as WiiWare and upcoming is even a 3D version of the title for the 3DS. Thankfully, the original is still free.

General Gameclub practice:

The general idea of the gameclub is to play through free games we can all find and play easily and for anyone to jump in and discuss them. The games should typically take about a month or so to play and afterwards we will move on to another game someone has found/knows about or if the game is particularly short (or uninteresting) the change could happen sooner. This not only encourages people to play games, but to also go out and find them. Hopefully this works out.

Oh, no. Not him. After that in the core.
Now the machine gun doesn't seem so special anymore, huh? D':

Back in Mimiga now.
