It's been five years since I first thought to myself, "Hey, why not try making a game?" I developed Cave Story at my own pace, taking my time, and while doing so I released a few other smaller games as well.

Out in the vastness of space lies the heart of an Intergalactic Criminal Network, TALOS, a man-made asteroid slowly spinning through the void, spreading its evil through the Universe. At the head of this seemingly unstoppable force sits one man, the unspeakably vile Cyrus T. Gross.


A name spoken only in whispered voices, Gross is the embodiment of all that is criminal. Avoiding any attempt to curtail his ever spreading empire, he has crushed all opposition and seems invincible, ruling his depraved Zealots with a fist of iron and a heart of ice.

In a last ditch attempt, the rulers of the Free Worlds have called in the Nemesis organisation, a hardened cadre of humanoid and robotic freebooters who have assigned N.O.M.A.D. 471 (Nemesis Organisation Mobile Attack Droid) to penetrate Gross's heavily armed home world and destroy this vile despot once and for all.

Your mission is to guide N.O.M.A.D. through the four sections of Capital City towards Gross's inner sanctum.

You arrive at the spaceport and must then progress through the slums, into the city centre and penetrate the HQ; "Dun Dentin', before you reach his personal quarters for the final deadly confrontation.

Many dangers await you in all sections of Capital City. In true cowardly style, Gross has installed magnetrons, heat-seeking missiles,
and an infinity of equally deadly obstacles, all of which must be confronted and conquered.

N.O.M.A.D. 471 Specifications

Autonomous war-droid with high-intelligence, Infra-red visual receptors and high-frequency audio-receivers.
Fitted with anti-gravity pods and twin thrusters functional in both forward and backward directions and capable of great speeds with a high degree of manoeuvrability.

Armament

Titanium body shell ... Not totally impregnable. Two magnum 57 calibre blasters. The N.O.M.A.D. 471 series is as yet untested. This is his first and possibly deadliest mission. The chances of survival are slim ...

The freedom of the Universe is in your hands.

We salute you!

On each screen your ship begins in the centre, and you must move and collect all the 80s items that are placed around the grid.

Most levels have holes which cannot be crossed, and must be moved around.

On the four edges of the grid there are moving laser cannons, which will attempt to destroy you with their photon shots. If one of them is level with your ship, either vertically or horizontally, they will open fire. Keep moving!

There is no ingame pause, but you may have a breather between levels, or before retrying a level you have failed.

If you complete all the levels, then you will be returned to the first, but the game speed will increase.

CONTROLS

On the title screen you can access the high-score boards using the cursor keys to move the tabs out from the sides of the screen, and to move up and down through the online scoreboard's four pages.

Also on the title screen, you may press "S" to sync the online board with the scores on my site.

PLEASE NOTE: Some firewalls may kick off or not allow you to post your scores - please make sure you have allowed the file access to the net connection. (you may have to ALT-TAB out of the game the first time you try to sync, in order to do this.)

In game the ship is controlled via any of the following:- Cursor keys, QAOP or Joypad/Joystick.

Spacebar or joystick fire button is used to start a game and also to retry a level, or move to the next level on collecting all the items on the screen.

Please read the readme.txt for more info on scoring, etc.
