Cave Story now available on this site

The Cave Story Tribute Site now has the (rather old) AmigaOS4 version of Cave Story for download:
http://www.cavestory.org/download/cave-story.php

Someone related to the site asked me if I had a copy (which I did), so the version there is just an archived copy of the old original version that I'd previously been given.

i.e. It is NOT a new port (which Huno was rumoured to be working on from scratch).

@ChrisH
I played it when it was first release. I eventually advanced to a point where it just stopped working. It was fun while it lasted.

@xenic

Huno's version or the link above ?

@xenic

The port of the original version had a bug which prevented the game to be completed. The bug was found, with the help of the original author, and I believe that a new, fixed version for OS4 was released by Spot which was 100% playable. I hope that the version uploaded on the tribute site is the latter one... Here's a thread about that bug: http://amigaworld.net/modules/news/ar ... php?storyid=4422&start=20

@Varthall

I don't remember a fixed port ever being released (just the bugged version being removed from OS4Depot), which is too bad as it was such a nice game and I never got to finish it because of the bug.

@Varthall
No. AFAIK the uploaded version is the old buggy one. As salass00 says, I don't think any newer versions were made public.

@ChrisH

Ah, pity then. I loved this game as well, very playable, though I never finished it.

@spotUP
Do you still have that bugfixed version?

The version downloaded from the above link is the same as the old version that you can't complete.

On Huno's game DVD you have Cave story (NX-Engine).

@Lio
That sounds logical... but I can't see it listed anywhere on that page :-/

@ChrisH

NX-Engine is listed under "Platform:".

My version is completable, i completed it myself.
The only fix was a recompile with xerons sdk and it worked.
I have it somewhere yes.

I am selling my Pegasos II and I am leaving the OS4 scene for now.
Maybe i'll be back some day if a nice portable OS4machine pops up.
ATM I don't find much joy in this community though.

I'll keep tinkering with my 68k amigas. :)

@spotUP
Sorry to hear that

@SpotUP

Damn... pretty sad to hear that. Hope that you'll return in the future :(
