Probably one of THE nicest and playable 2d platformers I've ever played.. If this had came out during the NES's heyday it would have been up there with mario and megaman.

imagine a cross between megaman, mario, metroid, the new castlevania games, wonderboy IV and your'e halfway there...



art, gfx and music by one very dedicated individual that calls himself PIXEL over a period of 5 years..

My hat goes off to this guy - he's given back something that the modern industry has been sucking away for the last 7 years or so...

Hey! Don't forget some of the classic games that are here:

There are some spectacular remakes of old games (Skool Daze, Highway Pursuit, HoH and others!).

Cave Story is the spawn of satan!!

It's sitting on my machine and whispering to me to have yet another five minutes...

It is so simple it is a work of genius!

If you do not play it you are sad and pathetic.

so there!

And I hate Brian Flanagan for recommending it to me. It's like Crack Cocaine!
Flanagan give me back my life!!!

(I am the defender of the mimigas!!)

[Brian]

it's brilliant isn't it??

seriously, this is a classic...

wait til you get a few more weapons.. the machine gun is particularly briliant in terms of the additional play mechanic it gives you.

the plot's so good!! i really am beginning to feel the need to protect those lil' mimigas!!
