Unusacies' Palisade

The game is Cavestory-esque in gameplay, with some added features such as removing the one thing I hated in Cavestory, the weapon down-leveling in its place just being you having to go out of your way to “metroidvania” and find the weapon upgrades.

There’s also a minor RPG leveling system which can help if things start becoming a bit too hard due to lack of HP or damage output, because at times the amount of stuff happening on screen is ridicollous...
