Es la segunda pasada que le doy en 20 años, lo recomiendo encarecidamente. Uno de los mejores plataformas que he jugado nunca.
i remember playing this in my old apartment when aeon genesis dropped the translation patch. i was utterly stunned that a single person made this game. it truly is one of the greatest indie games of all time, and every aspect of it holds up incredibly well. seriously, go play it.

Love this game so much, the update was a welcome suprise and love the fact that you can use mods....the music in this games does the job so very well in giving me a punch in the feels of the old 16 bit era, great giana sisters , bionic commandos and aye mario etc...thanks for doing the update, shows continuing love by a dev for their game
most underrated indie game of all time
Um jogo sensacional e bem difícil, principalmente na rota do melhor final. Absolute Cinema. (vai tomar no seu cu Nicalis, dê dinheiro ao Pixel também)
el juego esta genial
"So long as you always maintain a sense of exploration, you will someday find the way out. This is my hope." I have played this game on the Wii, 3Ds, Switch, and PC. Today, for the first time in years, I went back and 100% completed the game. Every achievement, every challenge, every ending. Cave Story is THE indie-game. I would not be the same person I am today without this game, playing it at the ripe age of 8 years old. This game has remained locked in a special part of my heart for over a decade. Thank you, Pixel.
Very good platformer. There are more than 2 endings. Story is interesting. Bosses are good. Many weapons to choose from. There are some challenging part of the game at the end. Gaining the "Unstoppable" achivement took me 70+ hours but I enjoyed it a lot.
The best indie story mode game I have ever played highly recommend (Sue is my fav)
A good game for what it is, a story driven Metroidvania. I had this game since 2012 in my library and slept on it until 2026. I enjoyed the weapons and level up/level down system as well as the teleporter. Not as easy to get lost like some ther games in this style. Overall holds up really well, worth a playthrough! Only minor negative is that you're very easily locked out of the "good ending" if you go in totally blind - and so you're pretty much forced to replay the game for it. Its a very minor thing, but for me I have such a backlog I can't be bothered to play games like this one more than once.
