Cave Story

Post by DaMadFiddler »

...I've been wanting to play this for some time, and it would be a really great game to see on DC. It's already been ported to PSP and (in an incomplete version) to DS.

More info.

Best homebrew game ever!

There is a port to SDL going on at the moment. The problem is that the original author Pixel, while giving out the source code to certain port efforts, does not want the source code to be redistributed.

He gave the source code to a guy doing an SDL-based GameCube port, and gave him permission to collaborate with a guy doing a GP2X port. In order to do a Dreamcast port (or any other SDL-supported platform that isn't already covered), one would have to contact Pixel and the guys above in order to get permission to collaborate.

I'd be interested in this working on Dreamcast, even though I have it on my XBox. One of my new favorite games.
