More or less let's talk about these types of games. Just finished playing Cave Story in the PC and got the best ending. The final area was brutal at first, but after slowly going through it the area ain't too bad. Same with the true final boss. Pretty simple strategy all things considered. Don't think I'll speed run the final area; satisfied with finishing it at 10 minutes.
Story-wise, decent, with a couple of punches in the gut. Avoided one thanks to getting the best ending.
One recent platformer I also played (well, re-played) was both Prinny games on the PSP. Now that caused some grief on my finger joints.
There's also a number of mario hacks that I might be interested in playing, but for now I'm setting my sights on La Mulana.

La Mulana is fun but damn is it tough.
The one I'm playing at the moment is Bit Evolution. Not a very hard game, but still fun. And each world being a different era of video game is a nice touch.

Any Mario rom hack that places an invisible coin block on the very edge of a platform above a bottomless pit gets an automatic 0/10 from me.

If you like Metroidvania-style games, check out Valdis Story and Axiom Verge.

Clip of raocow's LP of Fantasy Explorer Nitroid in the extra stages. To anyone who likes watching LPs, I'd recommend it, quite fun to listen and watch.

Some days I like metroidvania type games, other days I feel like "I ain't got time to backtrack"

Yeah. Too much backtracking on some games can be a bit tedious.

So I'm playing Yoshi's Island for the first time and I have to say this is the most beautiful SNES game I've ever seen.

La Mulana EX is next on my list too as it's on PS+ next month and Super Meat Boy is coming to the service in the near future too. I expect my Vita is not long for this world due the inevitable moment I launch it across the room.
In other news I've finally got around to playing Ghost and Goblins and see why it has quite the reputation, it took me ages just to beat the first level.

Syobon Action AKA Cat Mario. One of the most loathsome games I've ever played. Same with Unfair Platformer and Unfair Mario.

I want to second this. It's available for pretty much every system too, besides PCs - PS3, PS4, Vita, 360, XBox One, Wii U. |
