For the second special of Independent Pixel, I'd like to bring in a special gem, and not to much surprise, it's a rather well-known cult-classic of a game. This game is Cave Story by Studio Pixel (haha, similar name!), and it gathers much inspiration from classic platformers such as Metroid and Castlevania, but has many special bits that make it a wholly new experience.
