I wonder what indie gaming would be like if Cave Story didn’t exist. I think it’s likely that Braid wouldn’t exist (or would be very different), probably Fez wouldn’t exist, and without all three of those the puzzle platformer/metroidvania revival as a whole might not have happened? Which means no Hollow Knight, Timespinner, Islets, etc… maybe even as far afield as Night in the Woods?
- he/him
I like violent video games and roguelikes

Noel Berry has mentioned Cave Story as the game that made him a game dev, which means no Towerfall or Celeste either
