Subgenre: 2D ARPG (level up by eating dead fish or killing enemies - dead fish also restore HP and so does leveling up, fetch quests)

Other: Underwater-based

Can't attack enemies at first
Save points which also let you rest to restore health - somewhat frequent (only one save slot though - not just one per game, fast resting)
Enemies respawn when resting
Very short
Only two new moves gained and they just let you break walls
Escape sequence (untimed and no new threats)
No maps
Made by the Cave Story developer
