Description I still don't understand how a robot can make explosives out of gum-base, charcoal and jellyfish juice... I guess I shouldn't question video game logic.

Yes, I realize that's not what that robot is supposed to look like, I like my design for him better.

I also realize that's not even remotely how you hold a gun, I was too lazy to fix it.

Cave Story (c) Pixel, Nicalis

I was like "Ok, charcoal is normal, but WHY DO YOU NEED GUM AND JELLYFISH JUICE!?"

Ithink it's charcoal to the explosion, gum base to the fuel or something, and jellyfish juice to dont lit fire on anything.

I also don't know that much, coal and jellyfish juice is pretty obvious(for me), but the gum base was more of a guess.

I think your Quote design is adorable. What does the Japanese say?

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like how I draw him.

The Japanese says "Doukutsu Monogatari" which is Cave Story's Japanese title.

It didn't seem too far out there to me. I just pictured a sort of flammable paste like substance in my head, but then again, I guess it is a bit strange. Maybe it was something lost in translation.

purplemagechan In reply to Ginks [2012-07-23 17:56:46 +0000 UTC]

Good point. I always wondered if it made more sense in Japanese, but maybe it's just silliness regardless of language.

Oh, okay. But Pixel is the person who made the game, isn't he? Regardless, I'll add this to the credits.

Pixel was the developer, NiCALiS was the publisher.

FreakgamerFan In reply to purplemagechan [2012-06-26 17:13:53 +0000 UTC]

Pixel made the game.
Then he gave it to nicalis to publish it because he trustet tHeM.
Then they abused that and made that game their own.

Kiwiwarrior In reply to FreakgamerFan [2012-07-27 14:50:14 +0000 UTC]

No, he published the original on his own. Then other companies made adaptations for wii, steam, and 3DS with his permission. The one thing that he didn't like was that they turned his non-profit game into a way to make loads-o-dough.

That's an untold mystery of Cave Story.
However, I suggest to not think about it as logic and games usually does not come together well. Just accept it and move along. Nevertheless... When I was at that point of the game... I as well thought something like "Sure, no problem but... what the heck?"
Nice comic.

Yeah, it's best not to try and put logic into any game. But it's fun for the sake of humor.
