Your right Bralod.
I still think Undertale is the better game, though.

The pole is just "which do you like more".

Cave Story is probably one of the best things I've played in my life.

Undertale is very good, at times amazing. But Cave Story...it's just a whole new level.

Undertale, its not even close.

Tried Cave Story, didnt last long.. just not anywhere near as appealing as Undertale was.

Cave Story is a classic by now, it was released in 2004 if I'm not mistaken, made by a single guy, and the reason why we have pixelated old-school games, usually indies, being widely accepted nowdays, it's the first flame of the indie boom we got and are still getting, amazing beautiful made sprite games in the age of completely realistic games being relevant at some extent, it's due to Cave Story starting it all.

Cave Story and Undertale are very different, Undertale may be better per se, it's probably longer and more worked into than Cave Story, but Cave Story is a big mark Undertale own existence depends on.

It's a bit unfair to compare two games so different and with over a decade of difference and a completely different indie scenario we have nowdays.

I was simply asking which one you enjoyed more.

 

Also, yes, Indie games would have had an entirely different world if Cave Story wasn't released. it set the stage for indie games to boom, showing you don't need to be a big company to make good games

Same feeling when I played it in '08. 

 

Glad it wasn't ruined by sequels and whatnot. Cave Story and Undertale are such gems.

Most indie games dont stand out nearly as much as those two :)

But occasionally there are some really great ones as well, so Im happy theres still people makeing indie games.
