Cave Story MD

Video

This is a rewrite/port of the popular freeware game Cave Story for Sega Mega Drive/Genesis. It should work on any console or emulator. The main story is "finished", only little things and bugfixes remain.

"Stable" releases can be found in the Releases tab.

Control Defaults

If you have a 6 button controller:

• C - Jump, confirm
• B - Shoot
• A - Fast forward through scripted events
• Y, Z - Switch weapon
• Start - Pause / Item Menu

For 3 button, A cycles through weapons. The rest is the same.

Cheats

• Stage Select: up, down, left, right, A + Start. Like Sonic.
• Infinite health/ammo: up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, A + Start.

You can still get crushed and fall out of bounds.

Note that you can't load or save the game while cheating (including the counter).

Compilation
