Besides, I thought we agreed Quote was fully robotic, and not a Cyborg....

What happens in one discussion doesn't spread over to another (I think).

Also, the exp crystals are Doritos

When I drop doritos on the floor, they doesn't usually *tink* like those in Cave Story. Also, they've never bounced around very much. I'm jealous.

Not the in-game ones.

A nice point. You know the "Labyrint clinic" artwork? On that, Curly clearly has a navel. Would a robot have that? So, Quote and Curly would be cyborgs at most.

Quote and Curly are more Human-like in design than standard worker or soldier-type robots. Everyone thought that Quote was a Human with pale skin until Booster's big reveal. Whether Quote is a cyborg or not? I would very much doubt it. The paleness of his skin very much suggests that it is artificial.

You have a point there... As well, I didn't think about the definitions of robots and cyborgs. Sorry... How about this approach: Quote is a robot, but build with a lot of biological (well, non-metal) parts? I mean, I'm having hard to think that a piece of metal could jump four times his own lenght...

What I noticed the most with Quote's sprite was the long distance between his eyes. Far beyond normal human ones... When I had plans to draw a DM sprite comic, I had to make a custom sprite with his eyes two pixels more near each other to make him look more natural...
In the game context, though, vast lenghts between eyes sort of feel natural, but outside of the game and on the title screen, it's kinda visible.

Say what? I knew basically from the start Quote was a robot, and Booster's big reveal wasn't big at all.

A disappearance elegy.

I tried, but the place I downloaded it from gave off things like Quote's name and the basic background story..
But, of course, didn't tell me anything to prevent Curly from dieing the first time...

I didn't kill her! T.T
Damn Booster did...
I still don't get why helping him ends up being a bad thing.
I mean, from a maker's view, as every decent person would talk to Booster in hopes of helping him...
From a logical view, he probably needed the Booster v0.8 to get to the teleporter and maybe even use parts from it to fix it.

Still, I hate Booster for that D=
