h everyone.

I've taken time to research availability of a weeaboo platformer game called "Cave Story" for a variety of platforms and I found out that there are no ports for a couple platforms I have in mind, including the PS3.

I have in posession working Cave Story binaries that work with PS3 Linux and a GameOS build will shortly follow. Build instructions for PS3 Linux will appear soon too, because they slightly differ from desktop Linux build instructions.

Screenshots of working binaries will follow soon too.

Peace,
jan

Disclaimer: None of Pixel's source code has been used in the process, however you will still need the following files from Aeon Genesis 1.0.0.6 version of the game:

• data/*
  Doukutsu.exe

Yes, it sounds absurd that you need a win32 x86 binary, but it works platform independent, this file just contains some data that you need to extract.

Update 1:
- It exists http://i.imgur.com/09gkh.png
- It works smoothly, no surprise. Guess that's the only thing Mesa Cell was good for.

Will you be porting Cave Story to PS3 GameOS (as in "w/o Linux")?
I'll very interested

I bought this game for PC on Steam (Cave Story+) for $2.50 and I still haven't beaten it...

Yes, because Linux build instructions require a working Mesa Cell driver, which on its own is a difficult software to build, therefore not many users would be able to (or have the patience to) build Cave Story from source code.

This will be a free release, because it will only depend on game data from the freeware release.

Squarepusher has been working on a port of NXengine (Cave Story game engine clone) for RetroArch - https://github.com/libretro/nxengine-libretro

Is there an update for this project or has it just been put on the back burner?

I wish I could get a refund for this game on Steam. Ugh.....

Why it's not a bad game.

Wow, looks really good and enjoyable by the looks of it. Wish it would work on a OFW PS3.

I know it doesn't, but maybe someday OFW will read CFW content, like PSP does.
