Heyyo, I've never played Cave Story, but I've enjoyed your art of it for a while now. What would be your pitch for playing the game? I love hearing people talk about the things they like lol.
hmm well there's the usual sales pitch (made by one hobbyist guy ((with assistance from his friends which everyone seems to conveniently forget)) in 2004 who did all the music/art/programming/level design) or the slightly more grandiose 'omg it's THEE grandfather of indie games the modern scene wouldn't exist TODAY without CAVE STORY 1!11!!1!1' (which is and isn't true, it was just a game that a lot of people cite as what made them realised they could do gamedev and there's more than one indie dev who started off as a cave story modder including GIR of OneShot fame)
but personally, i would shill it from the angle of like... it's just a really solid little game - the spritework is polished and well-made, the music is dope, the level design is very memorable and (generally) pretty tight and the gameplay is a little bit of an adjustment but a lot of fun!
...i could go on, but i need to leave for class LOL
