Two Years of Fail
For anyone hungry for Fez content, as I know many of you are, Polytron recently posted Two Years of Fez (or Two Years of Fail), a little retrospective highlighting some of the delightful ways development of the game has gone wrong over the past couple years. Check it out here.

    How could any Cave Story rip-off Fail!?!?!?!? This may not be a direct Cave Story rip-off but an obvious inspiration, in which case my question still applies. Nothing that uses Cave Story as inspiration can Fail… at least, not for long.

  2. FISH said about 4 hours later:

    fez was not inspired by cave story.

  3. Hypersapien said about 5 hours later:

    Ooh! Ooh! I know a way that it failed.

    NOT RELEASING IT ON THE F*ING PC!

  4. Quetz said about 5 hours later:

    But… it has big pixels. Of course it was.

    As for Two Years of Fez/Fail, even the glitchy stuff looks sexy! I am in awe.

  5. Anthony Flack said about 9 hours later:

    Yup, even Polytron’s failure to complete Fez is a triumph of graphic design.

    “I Get Your Fail” has some quite arresting/beautiful/creepy images, too.

    …

    that wasnt me.

  10. FASH said about 14 hours later:

    The main character looks exactly like that of Cave Story! Cave Story Rip-Off!

  11. FISH said about 14 hours later:

    you’re a fish rip-off.

  12. guy said about 16 hours later:

    I do not give a shit about Fez because it is not coming out on PC.

  13. Anthony Flack said about 19 hours later:

    I hope it will be super-awesome and that it never comes out on the PC.

  14. Synnah said about 19 hours later:

    Way to stick it to the man, ‘guy’.

    i often wonder if anthony flack of platypus and cletus clay is the same anthony flack who incessantly trolls tigsource comments.

  16. Nikica said about 21 hours later:

    PC please, pretty please! Awesome fails!

  17. Anthony Flack said about 21 hours later:

    “i often wonder if anthony flack of platypus and cletus clay is the same anthony flack who incessantly trolls tigsource comments.”

    Yep, and I’m not even trolling.

  18. EmmaNympton said 1 day later:

    Anthony Flack is a Troll Rip-Off!

    Fez is a Cave Story Rip-Off!

    TIGSource is a Roguelike Rip-Off!

    Good point about Fez though, the main character looks exactly like pixel’s main character in Cave Story. I would have thought that it was some sort of homage, but since they deny it I’d have to agree that they blatantly ripped off the main character, while the gameplay is not exactly similar, that main character just lends itself to how much of a Cave Story rip-off it truly is!

    Notify Tim Langdell Immediately! He might be able to sue somehow!

    Mario rip-off, looks how they both have scrolling levels! i don’t have a xbox, but i hope this don’t get out for pc, it really piss me off seing a great game like that get pirated.

    what”s a trixel ?

  21. Paul Eres said 1 day later:

    a trixel is the sign of that goggle-eyed villain, phil fish

  22. FISH said 1 day later:

    i believe the quote is “goggle-eyed buffoon”
