    Great list. Donkey Kong Country is especially appealing for me. Let’s throw mario in there too while we’re at it. I think that could work well.

    I’d like to see a red dead redemption set in the early wild west.

    Earthworm Jim

    Please someone do anything with this franchise. I can even tolerate an open world live service game of Earthworm Jim.

        Jesus Christ, is there any bit of nostalgia left that’s not tainted by those lunatics?

        At least I still Harry Potter.

      I guess Sonic Adventure 1 has a little bit of this, with the hub worlds. New abilities can allow you to reach new places in the hub worlds

        Sonic Adventure 1 is my favorite Sonic game. I was thinking more along the lines of a 2d sidescrolling Sonic metroidvania though.

      Lol, that’d be interesting. Would the whole thing take place in that semi-first-person perspective?

      Check out “Aquaria”. Not quite the same thing, but a Metroidvania playing as a mermaid with song powers. Lots of boss fights! And you can even breech the surface when you get there!
