PIXEL PARTY: NICALIS CELEBRATES THE CAVE STORY CREATOR’S BIRTHDAY
I suppose adjusted for local time it might be passed already, but it’s never too late to head over to indie studio Nicalis’s blog to leave birthday greetings for Daisuke ‘Pixel’ Amaya — the one man creator of long-time freeware favorite Cave Story.
Nicalis is, of course, the developer tasked with finally making the game commercially viable (after a number of false starts and rumored retail releases for the DS and PSP) by bringing it to Nintendo’s WiiWare service, alongside their own original previously mentioned Night Game.
And the best reason to head over regardless: to see the custom art gift for Pixel (above right) created by Adam Saltsman (who himself is helping put together the WiiWare port) in its wonderful full resolution.
If you haven’t yet exposed yourself to Cave Story, head over to MiraiGamer’s tribute site, where you can find it available for a wide range of platforms (the unofficial PSP port comes highly recommended).
天谷さん, 誕生日おめでとう！ Happy Birthday Amaya-san! [Nicalis]
