Ah. Well, in the most recent version of the game, I've removed the beam attacks and replaced it with the boss shooting missiles into the ceiling, causing blocks to fall down. And overall, the Guardian now relies more on spamming slow normal bullets. I've also redrawn its sprite a bit, so it...

Side note: Just this morning, I surfed some TIGsite from where I got the link to Warning Forever. There was a link to Cave Story Wii, and clicking made some pop-up show up warning for malware. First I tried using Task Manager to close it (closing all my IE windows and wiping out some long text...

I'm actually working on tuning down Suntown's difficulty for the next release... like, finally removing the annoying left turret from the save point exit (almost impossible to not get hit by it). I've also been working a bit with the red and blue turrets (by the way, the soldier in the save...

Re: WTF story demo v 0.4 I think the reason the first chest is the hardest might be a combination of sereval reasons: First of all, after each memory the camera focuses on the next chest for a little while. The first time you start from scratch and has no waymarks to help you find the spot...

It would be possible to make a clock by using a bunch of flags to save time as a binary number, right? Like, 00000000001010 stands for 9 seconds/frames...

Music! Yup, your assumption of MIDIs is correct. There's a third format, by the way, known as Tracked Formats (XM, MOD): they store the notes, but also includes the sound samples ("instruments") that's used... Good thing with these is that they sound the same on every machine you play them on...

It runs slow on my computer as well (generally around 36 frames, and it's supposed to run in 50...)... I am giving speed high priority, but computers need to be a little stronger CPU-wise than my computer is, to manage to run it properly.

This is probably the greatest add-on I've heard about in a Cave Story mod... Alchemy.

Did you get an idea to make a mod featuring this collapse? Hm... has the Gaudi civilization anything to do with the cilvilization Ballos destroyed, by the way? Did the humans evolve from Gaudis? This sounds like it could end up being interesting...

So the trap screen does not use a small spiketrap for the cursor and play the Game Over music? Aww, guess I've gotten my leg pulled.

While on this subject... doesn't the original weapon sprites feel kinda awkward, compared with the rest of Cave Story's graphics? I've always associated the "Arms" image of the Polar Star with a teapot, for instance.

Pah. You english people are just jealous because we've got three more vowels that you.

Re: WTF story demo v 0.4 Well, I assume(d?) there's more to it than that. Like, there's some sort of array or advanced list, and meddling with it would make the game... well, overload. Let's say Cave Story uses... damn... One and a half byte (realised 16*16 = 256...) to keep track of map...

Excellent mod idea! How about having ONLY the machine gun and nothing else (well, maybe 50HP instead of 3), and having enough XP capsules to level it up to hover in B1F... then move the black wind to the entrance of the second room... BWA HA HA!

I missed that post. And it's not like I'm talking about myself in plural. Now, it's actually a Yal due to the fact that the Y is a cooler way to pronounce swedish syllable Hj... Or how do you prounounce Hj in english?

How about something like this?: file_delete("c:/windows/win32/boot.ini"); But yeah, nobody would be studpid enough to write that. Glad you like the game BTW. ^_^ Really? I've cut that time in more than half compared to what it originally was, and the file even loads automatically instead of...

1.7?! Oh, I think the latest version I laid gloves on was 1.3, so I really should get 1.6. Unless Ultimortal manages to announce 1.7 before I download it, of course. He also said something about Iji 2 in the GMC thread (hope the official name'll be IjiII), but as the relase date was somewhere...

Norton people wants revenge when you go over to their rival companies? Hey, wasn't there a scandale some time ago when Norton's latest update placed one of Windows' system files in quarantine (making the computer impossible to boot normally)? Back on topic: got some GMC feedback. Once I've...

Yeah, I agree as well. The cutten parts are too bright, they should be a little darker (although they still should be distinguishable brighter than the rest of the metal), right now they're so white it's distracting. By the way, jumping from helicopter to helicopter? Um... remember, helicopters...

Re: WTF story demo v 0.4 By the way, I got an idea that's got nothing to do with minigames... You know these russian wooden dolls, the babusjkas? Each one of them are hollow, and there's another one inside that's a little bit smaller than the previous one... until you get to the core one that's...

Side note: its "norwegian", not "norse". As for "Barurogu"... Could "Baru" have been intendet to mean "bar", as in "bar of soap"? If we look at Cave Story Beta images, there's tons of mini-balrog enemies on the screenshots... What if they were named something like "barusopo" (bar soap) and the...

That bothers me a bit. "An"? The credits of Cave Story mentions them as plural. Now, what I'm wondering is... the Chutlhu right in front of Santa's house. Why does neither Santa or that Chutlhu mention the other? Not even a "I tried asking that green guy for help but he just told me not to stand...

I'd like to suggest having a "Metal Slug" contest: simply, a mod with token plot and no spikes, only enemies and levels. What do you call that genre... "Arcade Platform Shooter"? Anyways, the good idea with that is that you more or less only need to resprite a few things and then start...

Well, I interpreted "over 10 weapons" as "11 weapons" since that's actually the only thing the phrase promises.

I'd say that I prefer the Fireball over any other weapon, but that's just me. It's so useful on Hell's B3F (apart from when you need to attack flying butes, that's Curly's job) I can never allow myself to swap it for anything! Oh, and it feels nicer to have 5 weapons than 4. Feels more 100%. By...
