Because it sounds childish, incredibly generic, and gives the exact wrong impression of the game? I thought that was a great reason.

Worse actually. "Rip: The unlucky rabbit" sounds like a the name of a book written for children.

Seriously guys, there is nothing wrong with the name. Why not a two-key hold combo like down+attack? You don't need to introduce new keys for everything.

According to words.txt there are three items built for air travel: "傘" or "Umbrella" as Google likes to translate it, "Jetpack", and "2 だんジャンプ" or "Double Jump" (Google again). The blue one is probably the Double Jump. Also to best read words.txt drag it into an open browser window/tab and...

Personally I like that visual effect. However, using the shift key to run feels awkward when you need to run and jump. The space key would be better for running and the shift key would be better for interaction. Also an addition to the tutorial about how item use actually works would be...

I would have done the same for the exact same reason. Actually, no. I would probably use .gif files instead (smaller size, and I would imagine a simpler format). But given that all of Cave Story's assets fit nicely within Pixel's self imposed 1.4mb limit (the size of a floppy disk) I very much...

Exactly. Everyone in the original Japanese version speaks Japanese. The cap is in English.

No. It is specifically in English. More specifically the words on the cap are "CURLY☆BRACE". Of course the answer Pixel gave only really applies to the Japanese version of the game. You would have to ask Nicalis and AGTP for a more definitive answer regarding the English versions of the game.

Remember that the cap must read "Curly Brace" on the front.

What ASM work? He wrote the game in C++.

Oh, and most importantly of all, send us photos. :D

Hmm.. needs to be blue with a star print. You can't really paint over rentals. Isn't Quote's scarf green? Wear them with the band to the back of your neck. The scarf should help obscure the band.

Cave Story: Bubbler-only run Illusion of Time: Fighting every boss as Will (except for the final boss where you are forced to fight as Shadow) There are most likely others, but those are what spring to mind for now.

Presents! Mistletoe! Brainnsss...

Well I can set up a separate category for it if there's any serious interest in Death Beam boss rushes. *shrug* As far as I can tell the only way to get this weapon is to hack your save. Editing scripts doesn't work. And "Death Beam" is its actual name. Check out words.txt.

All the voting nonsense now has its own thread. This should fix this once and for all.

Technically Santa Claus is based on a real person (Saint Nicholas of Myra) who has been dead now for over one-and-a-half millenia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Nicholas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus

Essentially it temporarily forces your computer to render at 640x480 resolution while cave story is in fullscreen mode and is the active window. How this is rendered onscreen is entirely determined by your graphics card and your monitor's display settings. Some monitors allow you to alter the...

While I was there I found some coin related info. Coins are at 0x8FF and are 4 bytes signed (yes, you can have negative coin totals). Coins visually cap at 999999 upwards and -999999 downwards except on the save preview. If your coin total would exceed 14511 after a sale then it will be reduced...

That's nothing. Try the Death Beam. It deals 99 damage, and is something like the "wide" weapon, except it has an absolutely ridiculous firing rate. Open your save in a hex editor (profile0, profile1 or profile2 in rsc_k\profile) and assuming that your first slot weapon is the Pea Shooter or one...

I think this is a common issue. This isn't exactly the first program to exhibit this trait.

Soaprun isn't actually old though. It was the last game Pixel released before Pink Hour and Kero Blaster.
