Perfect games? (hexbear.net)
submitted 11 months ago by LeylaLove@hexbear.net to c/games@hexbear.net

I'm curious what you guys have to say about this. Are there any games you consider perfect? Can a game even be perfect?

My example of a perfect game is always Portal 1. Portal 2 has more going on, but in 1 there just isn't anything to shave off. From start to end, there is nothing I'd change about the game. It's short, infinitely replayable, great pacing. I like Portal 2 a lot in concept, in concept it should be a perfect sequel, but it just doesn't keep the extreme tightness of the original game.

Nicalis

How come? I haven't heard anything about them at all.

I edited the comment because I'm not 100% sure anymore, but there are substantial rumors that Nicalis performed some fuckery to steal the rights to Cave Story away from Pixel (the dev). I'm not sure if this is true, as he's been credited in the re-releases over the years.

Either way, Cave Story is a beautiful game with an amazing soundtrack and it deserves to be experienced by everyone!
