This is a major one that has been stuck in my head for a while:
Putting miniature sites on the back of cavestory.org for pixel's other games (eg. cavestory.org/azarashi/) and connecting all of them together with the main site and each other.

Problem is having to build those mini-sites and get content for them. Also I am not really sure about this but I feel the need to bring forward any update ideas.

Should I build these mini-sites?
Should I put information about these games into the main site?
Should I not do anything?

Vote away!

p.s. Even if you agree to it, it probably won't happen without extra work to bring in content.

Yes, I think it'd be a good idea.

There's quite a few Cave Story cameos in Guxt, & Cave Story also has cameos of Pixel's other works. To not do so would tear apart the Tow Ropes that firmly hold each of the sources together.

(Okay, maybe I'm overexaggerating a bit there, but my decision still stands...)

Aw this suscks.

Roonil has officially passed on the flaw to me.

i clicked the friggin wrong option. O well.

Anyways, I personally feel that option one is good =P

I mean, people would want to know about the other games that Pixel has made, won't they? If you just give them a link without telling them what the game the link brings them to is all about, what reason do they have to be interested in the game, apart from knowing that it's by the same creator as Cave Story? o.o|||

I vote (2), as I don't think there's anything much to talk about each game that we need separate sites for each. And as (4) says, THIS IS A CS SITE!!! But since I wont go that far being strict, and just linking at downloads page is awkward, (2) is the best choice surely. Just learn from the tribute-to-Pixel-or-cs sites out there, what they did.

Hmm...

Seems like I have a new section to build over the weekend.

Hard part would be coming up with a short name for this section. Any ideas? "Other Games by Pixel" seems too long.

Don't worry guys, I've figured out a way to fit the longer name in (it is uploaded to the site right now).

Now all I need is content.
