The first time you are not in a cave. You can almost feel the fresh air blowing while you look out from this giant floating island you've wondered so much about the entire game. This was the moment I knew I loved this game.
(Spoilers ahead) This is honestly one of the best moment for me in gaming. Booster was dead, everyone else I knew was missing, and my best friend died so I could live. Egg Corridor was a wreck, and at the end of all the wreckage was Kazuma, the person I knew who was alive. Then we get to the question of if I want to escape. I sat there for a good minute wondering what I should say. Then I realized that if I left, I knew the Doctor would win, and after all that stuff I went through, there was no way I was going to let him live. So, I said no, and proceeded to climb the wall, while all these though went thoughts my head. I was going to kill the doctor, and save everyone, and avenge all those who were harmed because of his selfish desires... This is why this is my favorite game ever.
as an undertale fan its probably because they don't cheak the release date also they never listened to temmie changs interviews meaning that they never learnt that many of the charaters were inspired by cave story
"And that was how you and Kazuma safely escaped from the island. Soon after, the Doctor would use the island as his flying fortress and strike at the surface. Were the countries of the surface able to withstand the Doctor's relentless attacks? That doesn't really matter... After escaping, you and Kazuma live a humble life, hidden deep within the safe confines of mountains... ...and out of the Doctor's reach."
I remember when I first listened to Doctor from Homestuck and thinking this is familiar somehow. It took me to do another playthrough of this game 2 years after the original to realize that Doctor sounded like and was based off of this song. I love it when Cave Story music pops up elsewhere. This game has the one of the best soundtracks IMO.
How many times I've wanted to go back and get here for the first time again. The hope I felt, that even after so much loss, I could still save those who remained. It's a rare feeling from a game that can only happen the first time through.
Out of all the videogames I've played in my life... and all the soundtracks following them... this is one of the very few that's always stuck to me. This soundtrack is absolutely wonderful and words simply can't explain how much I love this. This game in its entirety is an absolute masterpiece and it'll always have a huge part in my heart. Cave Story is one of the best videogames to ever be created... its beauty is inimaginable. Amazing work... I'll cherish this forever. P.D. My eyes always get watery whenever I listen to this...
Isn't it insane? Made by one person? He claims he didn't have ANY knowledge of music when creating this soundtrack. Either he's a genius, or a liar. I'll go with the former.

When I reached the outer wall from the Egg Corridor. Kazuma made me to choose whether I want to escape with him or not. This song makes me feel this is the last chance to save the mimigas and the world. Kazuma, sorry. I have to save Curly and the mimigas. I'm not leaving without them!
I would love to go back to the early 2010's when I first discovered Cave Story. There were so many great indies from 2007-2015 (and there still continue to be!)

Oh and Binding of Isaac in 2011 and Hotline Miami in 2012 of course. I would say 2010 - 2012 is really when the Indie Scene started booming before that there wasn't nearly as many and they often were less successful overall.
+Willian125677 It's been forever since I played Cave Story but I remember it perfectly encapsulating the feeling of the situation: so much sadness and grief of those lost but a determination to set things right even though the journey looks near impossible ...
This game's ost is beautiful. Even with just beeps and boops, Pixel managed to make something absolutely astounding. And the most amazing part is that this entire game was built entirely from scratch by him. I hope he makes a prequel or sequel. And/or Quote for Smash Bros.
CaveStory is the first game I've played that had the potential of actually making me cry in the end. Whatever supreme being that may have made this universe, I bless you in it's name, Pixel.
i dont even know why this song bursts tears into my eyes, but it makes me feel so sad when i listen to this, its such a beautiful tune, yet it tells such a sad sad tale, it's immense how such intense emotions can get through simple 8-bit music
Man does this song bring back memories. Out of high school, trying to deal with depression and anxiety of what came next and I ended up escaping to the computer after discovering ROMs and eventually this masterpiece. I was hooked, the story stuck with me especially with how dark it got and I remember finally beating it and just sitting there with so many emotions in my head. One of the first video game stories that lingered on in me for a long time. Years later now and life hasn't gotten much better, things in life didn't work out and family members have passed and I sit here at 1am listening to this melancholy song.
This song really makes it feel like memories are rushing back through your mind and it is such a pleasant, yet bittersweet feeling, almost like you're longing for what was once was. I'm picking up a hint of nostalgia in this tune.
Whenever i listen to this song i think about all the Nintendo games ive played that had night themed places or full moons in the background and all the main characters are staring at it at the same time.
It's such an eerie feeling when there's this music is playing, the night time background, and those big, weird, floating creatures that shoot balls as you're climbing up the side of the island.
The entire game you are responding to the doctor, you're losing, your friends are dead or missing, you're all alone, and you get offered an escape, but you say no, you don't run, then its an uphill climb, you feel like you're finally not going to lose, you have nothing left to lose. This song is so bittersweet
+Snowtail Wolf of snow Keyword "almost." You WILL save everyone and prevent the Demon Crown from causing any more grief to the world. Giving up isn't an option anymore.
This zone really gave me vibes from "the wall" in rain world cool totally vertical area over the clouds, what a pretty zone with such pretty music, i wish it was longer :c
Favorite song was “Balcony” I always love the soothing sound of being up in the sky, even this song is one to remember, the first time leaving the actual caves, a game to remember, a game to love and play, you go Cave Story!
There is a long climb ahead of you. Treacherous winds, spikes, peas and amazing music. Snorelax ghosts and spites are abound, up the wall... Will you dare to face the snorelax? To collect all the Doritos? Or will you flee from the awesome music? It's your choice...
I imagine myself at a beach or park, strolling around as the bright moon and starry sky shine over my head. And while this music is cued too...It's relaxing imagery if you ask me.
I actually don't like Eyes Of Flame. It just sounds too repetitive to me. This, Running Hell, Last Battle, and Oppression are my favourite themes in the game.
This song gives off "The Penultimate Stretch" vibes. I mean think of it, this is one of the game's final areas and it has that feeling of hopelessness in it.
This game is hands down one of my favorite games of all time. Especially with Cave Story+, which adds even more to the game. The game's music is amazing, I fell in love with the characters, and I've played this game countless times.
I loved climbing the side of the island (I assume this is it to get to the plantation). the level was peaceful and to me not too hard (compared to hell) and I enjoyed it almost to the point this was my favourite area in the game. Also never went for the bad ending.
This is hands down my favorite track in the entire game. Like almost everyone else, in my first play through I chose the bad ending (running away with Kazuma) and I fucking regretted it right after I chose it. But yeah, you're pretty much bull's eye with the description.
I can feel you, even being a brony myself sometimes my sidebar of suggestions just gets filled up with non-relating pony stuff instead of new music when I'm music surfing. Same thing happened when skyrim was big though and stuff. But I feel ya man. Peace out and thanks for being civil.
Ultimate Cave Story challenge: You can get all the life capsules, weapons, expansions, and items you want. But, you can't save. So, beat the whole game (including sanctuary and ballos) without dying once.
Its possible to do it, but that'd mean if you wanted to stay somewhere to go to the bathroom you'd have to hope to god it wasn't filled with random crap as monsters. That, or buy Defensive Stars.
***** My stupidity got me there. In my opinion the Ultimate Cave Story challenge would be this: You can only use weapons that have to be rechargeable, like the Light Machine Gun and Bubbline. However, you cannot use Missile Launcher or Super Missile Launcher. Nor can you use Defensive Stars. If you choose to fight Ballos (optional), you HAVE to use Snake. I wanna see how far that goes :3
MimigaJoe actually, 1 HP, only the Bubbline (3 damage per shot, lowest damage in game and it has limited ammo), AND no saves/HP capsules/EXP capsules, + no recharge. Final Destination: Ballo's Lair >;3
I... I want to say this game is perfect... The music... the characters... it was all so lovely... I don't think I've ever cried from a game before Curly's life force distinguished on *spoiler*'s back. ... But goddammit, Toroko and King! ;_; ... This IS still one of my favorite games of all time.
@halfaheartbongobongo Extended is the more common way to say looped game music, because most game music on youtube you only hear it loop once or twice, extended basically means it goes on longer than the average music loop

I really love this song. It kind of gives me a "make it to the top, give it all you got" kind of feeling, personally.

Maybe not a second cave story game, but another platformer by pixel. Cave story is too perfect, so a sequel would never be able to top it.
Best game in history. I dont know how Cave Story got a 8.5 in IGN. 10/10 One of the best games on the internet.
Probably the insane difficulty.
Ethan Lang yhea the Ballos fight was so fucking difficult. you had to do all the level over again
Cave Story 8/10...
Is a little difficult, but is not the hardest is hard but if you know is easy every morning I wake up and I power up my computer and I defeat Ballos.

EpicNolegs I would think that would be a minor problem...there are plenty of completely safe places in the game, and more that you can make safe.
***** My stupidity got me there. In my opinion the Ultimate Cave Story challenge would be this: You can only use weapons that have to be rechargeable, like the Light Machine Gun and Bubbline. However, you cannot use Missile Launcher or Super Missile Launcher. Nor can you use Defensive Stars. If you choose to fight Ballos (optional), you HAVE to use Snake. I wanna see how far that goes :3

The ultimate Cave Story challenge has to involve a 3 HP run somehow. 3 HP, no saves, Polar Star only... Final Destination.
MimigaJoe actually, 1 HP, only the Bubbline (3 damage per shot, lowest damage in game and it has limited ammo), AND no saves/HP capsules/EXP capsules, + no recharge. Final Destination: Ballo's Lair >;3
this part of the game was so cOOOOooL
this theme, calm me sow much and i replay his because i like his ritm, it's very nice for a person wihout musical experience
With my headphones the volumes of sounds seem to invert so I can heat something completely different
"No one can stop me.
Just keep climbing, Quote...
... Do it for everyone...
... Do it for Curly...
... She will not die in vain..."
How did it feel when you (and i) realized she could be saved?
I am not going to cry
I am not going to cry
AAAAAAAHH I JUST CANNOT TAKE IT ANYMORE!
*Crying*
I... I want to say this game is perfect...
The music... the characters... it was all so lovely... I don't think I've ever cried from a game before Curly's life force distinguished on *spoiler*'s back.
... But goddammit, Toroko and King! ;_;
... This IS still one of my favorite games of all time.
This is the most I've ever been pumped in a fight since "Leap the Precipice"
Those DAMN ghost cats.
this song touches on some deep nostalgia for me. to gaze into the night and realize that we are just on some floating rock in the ether.
Best song ever
this is exactly how i feel, thank you VladNorris
@halfaheartbongobongo Extended is the more common way to say looped game music, because most game music on youtube you only hear it loop once or twice, extended basically means it goes on longer than the average music loop
Just a random fact, the melody of this song plays for a few seconds of Green Ghost from the Homestuck album Colours and Mayhem Universe B.
