New Mario game! The art style is certainly... Distinct. Probably not my cup of tea, but it's interesting nonetheless.
So I posted this when I first created the community, but I think it got lost somewhere and never ended up here. Early days for Lemmy I guess. Anyway, just wanted to ask if anyone knows any obscure *interesting* platformers. I don't necessarily mean *good* per say, but *interesting*. For example, were they trying something new, but missed the mark? Maybe there was an interesting story about its development or release? Or even just did everything right but didn't get the attention they deserved. That sort of thing.

It looks interesting to me, but it's Sonic Team so they may find a way to mess it up. Not a fan of the wisp-like powers, but I do like that they are bringing back multiple playable characters. The recent trend towards Sonic being the only character has been annoying.

Been playing through the Strawberry Jam mod a lot recently; would recommend if you enjoyed Celeste. The art is gorgeous and the level gimmicks and themes are wonderful. Also, if you haven't played the base game, I'd recommend that as well. It's currently part of the Pixel Pride bundle at https://www.humblebundle.com/games/pixel-pride
