    Character names: Lost in translation?

    Wow! Where the hell did the rest of the cave story wikipedia article go? As far as Quote and Curly go, I thought that their names were direct translations (wasn't that in the wikipedia article?). kuwoto = quote (written in katakana of course) and similarly for Curly and Booster I imagine. Can...

    Why is Quote a mute?

    From somewhere, a transmission?

    What Do Migmas do in Their Spare Time

    As to the problem why some of the mimigas don't seem to have houses and why it seems so hard to get around - there's actually another section of the town behind what you can see and a lift (= elevator) for getting to the top. It's hidden behind one of the pots so Quote can't find it (or...

    Did Booster create Quote and Curly?

    There's no proof that Booster had anything to do with quote's creation. I'll give a real life example: I can recognise a car but I've never helped design/make one. Actually, I kinda assumed that Quote, Curly and the killer robots were designed by the military or something. I had my imagination...

    New Cave story Comic!

    Nice comic! It's a bit rough and could do to be inked, but the pictures still come through clear so it's ok. Looking forward to more!

    Why is Quote a mute?

    The same reason that Gordon Freeman doesn't talk: They are men of action, not of words. -_- ^_^ Actually it just creates that same effect as in half life. don't ask me exactly what that is. An he does seem to talk like mentioned above.

    Okay, I'll give jumping into the forcefield a try too then.

    Complaints about the game

    Ugh? I couldn't find the windows drivers, so maybe that's the problem. Or because I wasn't peddling the bicycle that powers it fast enough.

    Monster X on Low Life

    What I was doing was just lodging the blade in one of the turrety things of the first form and then running off and using the bubbler. It takes quite a while to kill that way, you've got to do 4-6 hits with dodging the wheels in between. Then I usually get hit by one of the fish coming at we...

    Monster X on Low Life

    Purposely don't hit what you're aiming at directly with the blade? That's just indirect enough for me not to think of it but makes sense. I'll give it a try. Joker, I congratulated you in the other thread for getting through hell so quick, but from what I read there I thought you'd only been...

    Monster X on Low Life

    Joker, at first I validated you, but now I think it's just too insane. When did you start playing Cave Story? I have the blade at 3 but I don't find it effective vs the fishes or the blobs it shoots. I usualy switch to the bubbler 'cause it gives som protection, but it doesn't work so well on...

    Problem getting past the undead core.

    Damn Windows. It's what you could expect! Sorry for that, I'm actually a windows user too. I miss ME, XP doesn't give BSOD often enough. Anyway, this was the funniest thread ever, I almost died. Now to be on topic: I think I took about 15 mins or so but I don't remember exactly, so good job...

    Plotholes and gaps: What we DON'T know

    I always had the idea that the island was created by some ancient technology or long-dead civilization, or some such, and they also created the teleporters, cat robots, egg coridor and such. So you get a time-line something like this (note that this is the back story I understood/ made up and...

    Booster and Quote

    When you meet Curly in the Sand Zone she accuses Quote of being a killer (I think she says mimiga butcher, maybe) and says she used to be one too, but now she's protecting these children. I thought the unconsciousness had reset their programming to some degree. Regarding Booster, I just thought...

    Monster X on Low Life

    After beating Sacred Grounds I didn't feel like trying to get my time down, but I heard of this thing called "low life run" so I decided to give it a try. My level's not all that high so I'm having a bit of trouble with Monster X. Anyone have some advice or do I just need to level up more?

    Complaints about the game

    Umm... what's the point of complaining about Cave Story on the forums about Cave Story? Really, there's not much to fault. Kinda I wish that quote could do somersaults, though. Or if he could throw grenades. Actually the only problem I have is that sometimes I'm thinking go left, but I'm...
