Looking for Side-scrolling games - Games

Sorta like little big planet. Don't care what they are or if they are free/flash/games you need to buy off steam/in stores or whatever as long as they are really fun. I'm in the mood to play some but can't remember the names of any >.<

Mario.

Something maybe a little different. I know there are a few games out there in which you play as a blob and roll throughout the world jumping and dodging pits etc. in a physics based world, maybe something more like that? You start at one point and must get to the end alive?

Maplestory, Wonderking Online, Dungeon Fighter Online, Wind Slayer.

OECake has sort of a move-your-blob type thing, but it doesn't scroll. Phun, on the other hand, DOES scroll, but it isn't a blob character. Both are physics enhanced, as well as the ability to draw your own levels. Maybe there's a site set up somewhere for level sharing, but I don't know what it is. I think I'm missing the point.

Like Cavestory? <- One of the best you will play.

things more like gish, although i already played gish so i was looking for something else but similar

All the 2D Metroid games.

Boxycraft is a LBP-ish game that some guy is working on for PC. Look it up, it's pretty neat

Loco Roco.

how the hell did cavestory only get mentioned once?

Iji, Within a Deep Forest, Knytt, Oddworld Abe's Oddysee/Exoddus

Facewound

[QUOTE=oldage;23810995]how the hell did cavestory only get mentioned once?[/QUOTE] Because then the post would be about as useful as ours. We don't need to be broken records.

[QUOTE=Henry Townshend;23810002]Limbo. [img]http://cdni.wired.co.uk/674x281/k_n/limbo.png[/img][/QUOTE] That looks really good...I saw something like that for the xbox 360, do they have this on the PC? Cause i don't own a 360.

It might be on pc after the summer of arcade promotion has ended (limbo) [editline]05:09PM[/editline] Also, eversion is a nice happy game that you might like [img]http://www.thepretentiousgamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/eversion.jpg[/img] The game gets really cool looking later on

Cortex Command Is great!

Contra. Very challenging, but oh so rewarding when you succeed. Ninja Gaiden. Not as hard as Contra, but still pretty though. At least you got unlimited continues. You can play them in your browser via [url]www.virtualnes.com[/url] along with other NES classics.

Cave story

I just tried Cavestory, what a game.

Cavestory.
