<\/figure>\n

Years of innovation in side-scrolling video games have brought us to\u00a0Ori and the Will of the Wisps.<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>This sequel includes improved visual fidelity\u00a0and is awe-inspiring from beginning to end. The pacing is slower than a Sonic the Hedgehog<\/em> game, but that won’t stop many from delving into this memorable adventure.\u00a0It’s a Metroidvania<\/a> developed using the Unity engine.\u00a0Ori and the Will of the Wisps\u00a0<\/em>earned acclaim across the board, and we are eagerly waiting for another sequel.<\/p>\n

The different environments and levels of detail were good for the time. Those searching for a retro platformer<\/a> with slower pacing than Sonic the Hedgehog<\/em> should consider playing Aladdin.<\/em><\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Celeste<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

On an expedition to the top of Celeste Mountain, players become immersed in the game’s platforming.\u00a0Celeste\u00a0<\/em>is widely available on most last-generation platforms, including Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch,<\/a> and PC.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

The era of games like classic Sonic the Hedgehog<\/em> isn’t over as long as developers continue to produce platformers<\/a> like the hit franchise.\u00a0Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair<\/em><\/a> took the world by\u00a0storm with its stunning 2D and 2.5D levels.

It’s a hidden gem<\/a> containing puzzles, platforming, and vibrant visuals.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Cuphead<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

While the trend is heading towards more leisurely, more accessible games for players,\u00a0Cuphead<\/em><\/a>\u00a0is anything but progressive. The art style is reminiscent of cartoon shows from the 1930s,<\/a> and the gameplay follows a challenging run and gun style seen in games of the\u00a0Sonic the Hedgehog<\/em>\u00a0era. It goes to show that retro games are still relevant in the modern gaming world.<\/p>\n
