Cave Story

Cave story has had a myriad of ports, and re-releases over the years as the creator handed the source code to many people back in the mid to late 2000s before being bought by NiCALiS who released Cave Story+ on multiple platforms.

The best way to play Cave Story is split between CSE2-Tweaks, A mod of the Cave Story Decomp with various QoL, and Cave Story+ with the Aeon Genesis Translation Patch (AGTP).
