About this app

This is a wallpaper recreation of my favorite level/scene from one of my favorite video games - the Outer Wall scene from Cave Story by Pixel.

It features your favorite Cave Story characters flying through peaceful moving clouds under a moonlit sky, all with a nice parallax effect when when you switch homescreens.

The wallpaper is also highly customizable:
- Characters (Skydragon/Kazuma/Quote or Balrog/Curly/Quote)
- Background theme (moonlit or foggy) and color
- Number of stars
- Wallpaper scale
- Animation speed
- Homescreen scrolling
- Frames per second (may help with battery life)

These are available in the wallpaper's settings menu, which can be accessed through the included launcher your live wallpaper chooser.

Comments and suggestions are welcome!

This is honestly a fantastic little app for cave story fans but I only give it four stars just for the fact that with some more modern phones you can't have it as a always on display background and you can't just have it as your lock screen. Also you can't use the more updated graphics which isn't too big of a down side but would be a nice edition. If the creator is reading this please add some changes and some of these if possible. Overall, probably the coolest phone background I'll ever have!

The newest version now has an option to use the higher-resolution sprites from Cave Story+! Regarding using it as an always-on background or lockscreen only wallpaper, unfortunately that's up to the phone manufacturer.

A really smooth, easy-on-the-eyes wallpaper. I loved the game, and super happy we have talented people such as yourself to make a recreated live wallpaper like this possible. My only suggestion is maybe adding additional characters and scenery, such as Misery sitting on the Balcony staring into the clouds, as seen on the credits.
