Cinnamods
Cinnamods are Cinema Mods. They are mods of PC Cave Story that are never supposed to be played by actual users. Instead, the mod maker plays the mod, creating a Let's Play with audio commentary while doing so.
The mod cannot be played normally. It will look like the mod is full and complete, but it will probably be only 40% to 50% functional.
With a Cinema Mod, you can...
- Omit all doors to previous areas
- Forget about checking for boss fight already finished, just don't refight the boss
- Easily use more than 127 maps
- Do video editing to make your mod look way cooler than any normal mod
- Pretend that you know how to assembly hack
- Make cutscenes that aren't actually coded in TSC
And much more! For the Let's Plays on YouTube, make it look all exciting, and then finish the real mod later. This will allow for fast and exciting releases without needing to make the whole mod at once!
Mod not finished? It's okay. With a Cinema Mod it doesn't need to be finished to look cool.
