The Journey Home
A Valentine's Day Mod


A worker from the city must make the arduous journey home so that he can be with his significant other for Valentine's Day!​
Will he make it home in time?​


Okay, yes, I know, technically there is already a Valentine's Day thread, but this I think is a bit different, since it's a mod.

I made this mod for my boyfriend, and decided to post it here too.

This mod contains preview content of my upcoming mod Heaven and Hell. I'll let you figure out what's what.

Also, there are technically two endings depending on your actions, but really it's as slight a difference as the Mimiga-mask altered ending.

You can download the mod here.

Screenshots aren't really necessary since the areas are minimally reworked.

Happy Valentine's Day!

How do I get rid of the Studio Pixel/change the version? Never knew how to do that.


Yeah this was rushed off the drawing board, since it was already late. The stuff that would need to be fixed is minor though, so I won't bother making a second release since this was a mini project.

The game is out of order because it's supposed to be things just getting thrown at you. And it was so easy because my boyfriend sucks at playing Cave Story (took him five tries to get past Balfrog). He loves the game, but sucks at it.

Yes you were supposed to be able to get the Arms Barrier. If you'd take note of the repaint of Curly.

Kai the Dragonmaster was not a Ninjago reference and I may have to change his name now. Fuck that shit.
He's another little... foreshadowing, shall we say. He's actually named after the airbending boy from The Legends of Korra's third season. Yep.

It looks decent for a beginner's mod (I Presume)...

The story is different from the original Cave Story, but if you changed more maps it would be a better experience for all of us...

I suppose you're gonna work on an easter mod next?

This wasn't a full mod, which is why it seems like a "Beginner's Mod" but I am making a feature-length mod as we speak.

This was just a short little adventure with preview content (including maps, sprites, etc) from that feature-length mod, which will be called Heaven and Hell. I am not making a post for it until I'm 50% through the game and I will not release it until it is finished.

So, take it for what it is. Maybe if you'd read the post you wouldn't have so pretentiously assumed I am a "beginner" mod-maker.

If you want to see a beginner's mod look at the meh that is Cave Story: Redemption.

And no, why would I make an Easter mod? Perhaps a Spring Break mini-adventure could be amusing though...

That carnival music from Rave Story, is that open for use/download from anywhere?

Sure. The org was made by Tpcool for use in my mod, so I asked him if letting you use it was okay. His response was basically "whatever" so here it is. Just make sure to give credit to Tpcool if you use it.

I knew Tpcool made it, but I can never find the link to his website where I'm pretty sure it has a download.

So far I know, you can change the Studio Pixel thing with Resource Hacker (it's under Bitmap > PIXEL ) as well as the version (Version Info > 1).

A little late to the party, but hey, better late than never, right? Here are a few things I noticed while playing through the mod:
-When entering the tunnel that went from Sand Zone to the Labyrinth, I took 10 damage out of no where. If it helps any, I was jumping up and down while moving right into the tunnel.
-When I talked to Chaba, he turned my Magic Star into the Snake when I told him he could, even though I didn't have the Fireball. He even pulled a Fireball out of nowhere to do it.
-Is it me, or does Balrog's dialogue resemble Suto's from Jenka's Nightmare?
-At Immortal Balcony I was able to boost up onto the overhang after triggering the warning that I would fall if I continued to the left. Up here, I could jump up the overhang and ultimately go offscreen.
-In the room after Immortal Balcony I was able to immediately walk right after entering the area. This led to me falling forever offscreen.
-When I walked into a table in Hellish Wasteland B2, it turned into spikes. However, I immediately took 40-50 damage instead of the usual 10. Not sure how this could be fixed, though.
Other than that, the mod was okay. I found the message at the end sweet, too.

-Originally I had the Fireball as being obtainable but decided that Santa should lock his door behind him instead.
-Yes, yes it does. That's sort of the point, I've been trying to convince the person I made this for to play Jenka's Nightmare.
-Thank you, I will try and fix this with a script sort of like what the Balcony does.
-I will not fix this since I'm not making this a full-scale fix-everything mod, but thanks for letting me know.
-40-50?! For whatever reason, map spikes like those in the PrtHell tileset still hurt you even when you're flashing invincible. This is an issue with Pixel's original code and I can't fix it since I do not know Hex and such.

Thanks for playing though!
