Think up another new ending for Cave Story! Tell us about it here, and what new conditions or events lead up to it!
I was thinking a new secret extra hard route could be :
Play the game normally until you fight Igor and are supposed to save Sue! But instead of saving Sue you walk right past her and go out the secret exit to the Outer Wall...
Now you have to climb the wall without any booster and with not too much health. Maybe you bump into Itoh or Momorin. [Remember Momorin gets thrown off the cliff by the Doctor?] Maybe you get to see it happen or something...
Then you go through the plantation [with a few missing people since they are still at Mimiga Village]. But Booster might still be there...
Anyways you get to fight Misery or Balrog, in the plantation as you are finally discovered. [Maybe a Misery + Balrog battle?] Afterwards you get sent to Labyrinth...
And in the Labyrinth you find Toroko! She's still alive since this is still before the Doctor finds the Red Flower. *Toroko's theme plays* Toroko is happy to see you, and you free her or maybe carry her to Doctor/Nurse place. And there you meet Curly for the first time! She recognizes you as a Killer Robot! But, you are helping Toroko so she sees you're a good robot!
Get the Cure-All and save both Toroko and Curly.
So far I think the game is much harder since you'll have been at much lower health than normal, and not have access to bubbler, fireball, blade, machinegun, etc... You've cut out Grasstown, and Sand Zone.
Continue on your way fighting MonsterX and reaching the chamber where Booster usually falls from the sky... except this time he doesn't. [maybe add a new passage that leads to a new area if you fall... (remember Curly beats you to the stone monolith... even though she doesn't fight MonsterX! She must have a shortcut...)
Anyways make your way to the stone monolith chamber without booster. You meet up with Toroko and Curly. Balrog shows up like normal with some new dialogue since Toroko is there. Maybe he notes that Toroko ISN'T Sue after all!
Anyways, you beat Balrog and he helps you move it. You get to fight through the Labyrinth with Toroko and Curly. (Maybe have a harder time with more Gaudi to fight since Toroko/Gaudi's favorite food is with you)
After making it to the Core Base, things proceed... but when you reach the door 4 [or was it 3?] Toroko pulls something out of the door and gives you the item...
That's as far as I remember...
(Maybe I'll add the rest later ) But the ending keeps Toroko and maybe King alive and throws in a few new areas!
