Every time that this topic goes off topic, we halt development for a few weeks... We also destroy some Policenauts related merchandise to raise the market prices if a picture is posted.

I signed up several times, but I never got any of the newsletters. Eventually I found this: http://policenauts.net/mlist/archives.p ... 1&msg_id=4
Hopefully that works for you.

That's been covered several times in the last month as well, in this same thread. But the way to go is the news page or the newsletter link that JimboKudo just posted. Don't expect we'll be updating with "there is no news" every week. I believe I already typed that as well =PAce Attorney wrote:I have been following this thread for a long time (about a year) so i'm all caught up in that sense, but there's really been no update for a looooooooong time.
like you guys forgot about it and decided to call it quits.
Could you give us a rough idea of how much more needs to be done?

It is not that we don't want to give updates Anubis, if you track down the information years back, you'll notice we used to have detailed news on every item we could. The thing is, we don't have much to report and when there is news, you'll certainly know it.
The message you should take from us is simple: we won't give up, and it will be done. It will certainly take time. We are not holding anything at all. We certainly appreciate all the support and interest, but as we've said in the past patience is the best strategy in this case, for all of us.

Hey hey hey, guys guys guys! So I was reading the manga Crying Freeman today, and I noticed this particular character...
Her name is Kiche, an african-american assassin. She attempts the life of the protagonist after painting her skin white in disguise. Then she struck this pose that kindof reminded me of someone.
She strikes that pose a couple times. Time for comparison shots!
Well, at least now we know why Meryl has an afro. BTB, Crying Freeman's circa 1986, if anyone's wondering.

Great find shidoni, I only watched the anime... maybe I'll take a look at the manga.

Just gotta give it time
Anyways, Have any of you guys ever played Cave Story?
Yeah, I've played and beaten cave story twice, and I'm going to start it again if I can find the time (lots of ps2 games to beat). Luckily, I can play it on my psp, which is nice for road trips and stuff. I hope that Pixel releases another game soon (Cave Story is a master piece). I actually overlooked the game several times, when I saw screenshots at caimangames, but I was REALLY bored one night (and my laptop only has 24bit graphics,so...) and I gave it a shot. As soon as you get ahold of your first weapon it's extremely addictive.
Cave Story is my single favorite game of all time. It's amazing that it was a free game.
I've beaten it twice on PC, once on psp, and soon on DS. It's just that damn good.
As far as other games, Pixel has released a few.
There is Ikachan, which is an interesting game he made while working on Cave STory. He also just released a shooter earlier last year called Guxt. He has also reported that he is going to be working on an RPG, which could be amazing.
If you couldn't tell, I'm a bit of a fan of the mans work.

I've beaten Ika-chan once. It took me several hours because the translation was so poor. I guess that was part of the fun. I don't know if you've played it yet, but the music is excellent. And speaking of music. Do you have a favorite Cave Story bg music? Mine is the one where you finally make it onto the top of the island (before the BIG boss fight).
As for Guxt, last time I checked I held the highest score online Unfortunately, since my computer sucks (1998) it's a bit difficult to play those "high graphics" computer games.
If you haven't played his game Megane, then you should. It seems kinda pointless and ridiculous at first, but if you make it past the first set of stages there are actually alternate endings and stuff.

I think somebody re-translated Ikachan actually.
I have yet to really put any time into Guxt, I'm going to though when I finish the games I'm playing. (Right now I'm working my way through Mother 1)
Yea. I'm a pretty big fan of the music. Moonsong and the main theme are my favorite songs, but I have a soft spot for all of them. I just recently found piano remixes of the songs and its great. I was disappointed in the remix project though. While some of the songs were great, some not as much.

Wow, you guys are exactly where I'm at in my game-playing - I finished Earthbound to return to the fan-titled Earthbound Zero, then went onto Cave Story. Is anyone just now starting the Half-Life series? :razz:
I've been addicted to Cave Story since a pal of mine showcased it for me on his Mac. I knew the second I saw it (and heard it) that it would be a worthwhile play, and, indeed, it turned out to be the best freeware game I've ever played! I recommend it to anyone who enjoys the NES Mega Man games, in particular - Cave Story is a near-perfect experience.

English Patch: http://www.wctc.net/%7Eluvmimac/cavestory/
As far as Policenauts goes, I became frustrated after seeing how hopeful the last update was, only to see the developed slowed. (Though the reasons, as I've stated in the past, are fully understandable.) On a related note, I've been reading the Mother 3 Patch updates over at fobby.net since the beginning, and I much prefer the insight over the silence. Nevertheless, that's a personal preference. I support the Policenauts.net team fully, and appreciate everything they've been doing for us. No matter what, as long as development continues, I will be here contributing.
I never realized how much we all have in common. Considering that there are hundreds of games, it's odd that some of us are playing the same few. I'm admittedly a bit weirded out. :shock:

Sure, mainstream games are fun, but you haven't tried Snatcher yet.
I should note that I play like 10 games at a time though, and just play Cave Story randomly. It's sorta become like going through a level in super mario brothers on NES.
(A much harder SMB though)
Games that I'm working my way through at the moment
Mother 1
Night's into Dreams
Burning Rangers
Half Life 2
Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword
Final Fantasy - Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates
Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core
Psychonauts
And others that I occasionally pick up

I remember playing Mother 1 a LONG time ago. I think that's the one where you have to go into the basement and fights rats. Also, I destinctly remember fighting a lamp early on. I think it was called Earthbound Zero, when I played it.
As for Guxt, it's a very simple shoot-em-up, which is actually quite good. I liked Megane more though. Here's a link to megane if you want to play it http://shii.org/pixel/glasses.zip hope that works.
Anyway, I don't know if you guys know or not, but there's actually a cave story level editor that comes with the special edition of cave story (it just includes cave story, ika-chan with a better translation, and the level editor). I tried my hand at it, and it is very intuitive, but I'd rather just wait and see Pixel's next creation instead of building my own, which would pale in comparison.

Wow.
I mean, WOW. This translation is awesome, I just can't believe it. Everything is so perfect and detailed, it is even better than some official localizations.
I don't know if Artemio has sent the patch to anyone else, because no one else commented about it. Maybe they're all playing like crazy :x
Actually, I did that, completed the first arc and then had to stop. And now I have classes, so it's the shit. But I'm so addicted to the game!
Thanks everyone for this great project, it was worth the wait, every second of it.
I'll report bugs if I notice anything, but I think that won't happen seeing how perfect this all is.
Again, thank you so much!
