Damn, I forgot all about Cave Story! I can really, really recommend that one. That one was obviously a labor of love for whoever developed it. It also has replay value because depending on the way you proceed, you can get different weapons and endings. A+ would play again etc.
Knytt Stories looks intriguing, I may check that out later today.
― Z S, Sunday, 30 September 2007 17:28 (sixteen years ago) link
It took forever and never seemed to go anywhere. I stopped playing.
― kv_nol, Monday, 1 October 2007 11:58 (sixteen years ago) link
The original Knytt is even more low-key than most of the Knytt Stories levels. I'd agree that they don't really 'go anywhere' -- the appeal is mostly in exploring the weird mysterious world and seeing the tiny little sprite animals hop around, which is compelling enough for me but I can see how it could seem boring.

I really like Peggle and I've considered thought about buying the full version, but I bet it isn't much better than the free one.

I played KongKongSEA for a long time. It is a jump racing game with attack items and tiles on the ground that give you boost and direction changes.

Question:
Is the music for this game the worst music of all time?
HINT: Wait until the programmer's 15 year old girlfriend starts singing before you make your final decision.
― Z S, Friday, 2 November 2007 17:57 (sixteen years ago) link
The singing starts about 120 seconds in. Actually, to clarify, it's not the worst music ever, it's the worst Bjork imitation ever, and the worst lyrics ever.
EVER!

It's a real rekkid, not the programmer's girlfriend.

I've been trying to download the free game Perfect Cherry Blossom, but everywhere I can find it, it's a .lzh file, which I can't get my computer to unzip correctly for some reason (maybe because it's an old file and the new versions of winzip and similiar programs don't recognize it correctly?). Anybody here know what I'm doing wrong and what I need to do to be able to pay this amazing looking game?
Here's a clip... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Go-0dm14Hsw&feature=related
― Jeff LeVine, Monday, 17 December 2007 05:46 (sixteen years ago) link
LZH is a very old archive format rarely used anymore, but Winzip should work. I just downloaded the demo (which I guess you have) to see, it should work with WinRar or 7-Zip. Grab the English patch here if you want to read the hyper-cutesy character dialogue, profiles and such.
― Nhex, Monday, 17 December 2007 06:55 (sixteen years ago) link
Thanks Nhex - I got it to work finally using WinRAr. Pretty crazy shooter on normal - I can't imagine the harder difficulties. The hit point is pretty small, mercifully...

Hyper Frame makes me feel like a puzzle MORAN on only the fourth level of the easy mode. how in the fuck can you connect them???

Has it been mentioned already? The original Crayon Physics demo (five or six levels) is well worth checking out. Very cool & I'm looking forward to the deluxe version. The first download mirror site didn't work for me, but the second did

Haven't tried any Hard ones yet -- do enemies give out even less money than on intermediate?
― Leee, Tuesday, 19 February 2008 19:21 (sixteen years ago) link
I think it's close to the same amount, but the maps don't double back much (if at all), so if you don't get them with your first or second group of towers, you're fucked. It's pretty hard to even get through the first five waves.

i know this is extremely beatable (even by me!) but after playing 10 times or so my hi score is about 3100. you get multipliers every time you pick up a power pellet so staying alive for an additional 30 seconds or so would probably quadruple that
