Cave Story - Doukutsu Monogatari
Cave Story is a freeware sidescrolling action/adventure/platformer title with leanings towards Wonderboy and recent sidescrolling Castlevania titles. You control a little amnesiac who runs around helping out these rabbit-ish creatures called Mimigas while trying to find your way out of the giant cave inside the floating island which makes up the game's setting.

It's been five years since I first thought to myself, "Hey, why not try making a game?" I developed Cave Story at my own pace, taking my time, and while doing so I released a few other smaller games as well.

Bottom Line: Play it! This game has good graphics, a (fairly incoherent) but good story, a good array of weapons, strong character development, and great gameplay. Can't make that jump? Shoot down with the maximum level machine-gun. It'll push you straight up! Colossal bosses, great story, good graphics, easy to understand interface and controls, just about everything is a plus! Heck, everything is a plus! One of the best games, and by far the best platformer. A must try, and it's free!
