Cave Story - The Ultimate Challenge

As well as my other mod, Rise of Ballos, I shall now post another mod - the Ultimate Challenge.
This challenge involves all sorts of parkour and all other skills that you can think of from Cave Story.
Normal players might want to use the Save Points.
However, if you're an extreme hardcore Cave Story player, you might want to do it without saving to see how far you go. You may even complete the entire challenge to show off your best time. Or you could be a noob and hack the files, whatever.

Spoiler: Sections

Section A: The regular parkour challenge
Section B: The Booster v0.8 challenge
Section C: The Booster v2.0 challenge
Section D: The Machine Gun challenge
Section E: The Booster v3.2 challenge (Infinite Booster v0.8)
Section F: The Booster v5.0 challenge (Infinite Booster v2.0)

could you put the save after you get the .8 booster, having to grab it repeatedly kind of impedes gameplay. mods like this could also use having the map system so one can plan ahead

 

@George Bobicles:
Okay, I will consider putting the save point after. However, I have not put flags for items, so that would allow you to get it again! I will also put the map system in the next update, thanks for reminding me though

EDIT: Updated, with the save points after the items, with appropriate flags for each. Maybe I could also decrease the amount of save points to make it harder for the 'cheaters'

I don't see how reducing the number of save points would make it harder for "cheaters." If someone wanted to cheat, they could just give themselves an obscene amount of health and other things to make the challenge a breeze. All you would be doing is hurting the innocent player.

"Ultimate" and "difficulty" do not equal "bullshit map design," nor do they equal "fun."
You may want to counter this by saying, "My mod is for pro elite Cave Story players only," But I can assure you, even people who are very good at Cave Story hate this. It is not fun, even in the slightest.

 

bad level design is not a replacement for challenge

 

Why is the 290 timer used? Do you really expect about anybody to beat it without messing up once during the whole challenge.
Have you even beat the challenge yourself? It's really hard.

Nice! This is actually one of the mods that I've stopped working on, but it's nice to see that someone actually got through it!

 

The Worst parts were always the last sections of jumping and the infinite booster 0.8 and 2.0. The last sections of jumping had blocks so you can't land your jump in the block, so you have to slow your own momentum in mid-air down, it was quite annoying. Oh, and it took me 3-4 hours. i used saves.

 

ok u sik friks im gunna try this its time for... vb's revieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeews!

Spoiler: Before I Played

This is extremely hard idk

Spoiler: While I Played

2. Nice intro? +1.
3. so i didn't know this was made by pixel in 2004. -1.
4. Oh dear cod how in hell do i get through these spikes. is this death story??? -1.
5. The spike jumping segment hurts me. -1.
6. The jump to the 2nd save point is hell. Also, what's the point of the first save point? -1.
7. "saving will forfeit your highscore" so you're telling me that im supposed to do this in one go??? -1.
8. OK, the spike jumping after the save point is kinda fun. +2.
9. You should put a spike on one of the blocks before the third save tbh. Having to jump one pixel away from death is my kind of fun.
10. I would have taken off a point for the fact that you'd have to start over if you fell off the blocks before the 3rd save point, but I did it in one go, so +1?
11. The spike jumping after the 3rd save is fun too. +3.
12. I like how after the 4th save you have to do the pixel perfect jumping. +1.
13. I like how you know what the down arrow blocks do after seeing the up arrow blocks. +1.
14. The difficulty spikes around the 5th save, but is still playable?
15. Got to the booster. +1 for adding it.
16. The level design after the booster is really fun! +1.
17. Got the second booster. Let's see how the level design up here is.
18. The design is fun, but hard. +1.
19. lmao just noticed the "want to redie" part. Probably because this is the third or so time I died.
20. After the 6th save it gets pretty fun with the narrow boost sections! +1.
21. Got to the seventh save.
22. Gonna play with the machine gun, but then go back and do it with the booster.
23. Is this even possible with the machine gun???
24. Just gonna do it with the booster. Thank cod I didn't save at the 8th save.
25. wait is this possible at all???
26. Oh. Figured out you have to conserve the MG charge. +1.
27. Getting that landing is hard as heck. -1.
28. After 30 minutes of screwing up, I got to the 9th save.
29. Booster v.32??? WHAT???
30. The booster v5.0 is neat. +1.
31. The level design here is really fun! +5.

Lmao this mod was made when I first started experimenting on ASM
If only I had enough time to actually make a new mod like this now...

 

Bonuses: ASM hax: +10.

It had that much notable asm?
Afaik I only remember the boosters being edited.

Hey it's more ASM than i do on a daily basis so-

 

you gave an extra 33% on his score because it had assembly hacks that are better than what you can do? what would hackerstory get, 200%?
