• Hey everyone happy Christmas Eve we're aware of what's happened with the source code so to keep this simple absolutely don't post it on the site or use it to make mods with (it's not particularly preferable toward this end anyway) and tread lightly in general until we see how this settles, thanks to all and have a great holiday season -DT

Does anyone miss the "wrong" floaty jumping?

All these remakes are always going to feel incomplete, because a large part of Cave Story's charm were its controls. The way Quote felt a bit floaty, like the gravity was a bit like the Moon, it gave the game a unique, dreamlike quality.

Not really.

Feels a bit better faster actually.

I agree with Gear. It allows you to get from platform A to platform B faster.

To each his own. Maybe someone will mod that in if you ask nicely. Personally, I like the faster jumping more, but the floatiness isn't bad. I like that it gives you the impression of a dream, I never thought of it like that before.

If it's any consolation, the jumping is still "wrong".

The floating was the result of ridiculous framerate. Quicker framerate makes the game a much more fluid and exciting game that doesn't feel like my CPU/GPU are constantly trying to catch up regardless of how little is being done at the time.

I love cave story's floatiness and framerate. I'd kill myself if those were removed.

I thought he still seemed a little floaty, he just didn't have the ridiculous hang time from the slowness of the game before. My friends were laughing as they played it, we held down the button and he would just hang in the air for a while.

I do miss the floaty, but the new fps is quite fun.

Needs an option!

Speaking of which, anybody know a program that can force FPS? I know fraps can, while it's recording to whatever you set it; but if only there was a way to disable the ... recording part lol

I prefer the faster jumping.
