Hard platformers with banging chiptune soundtracks? (feddit.uk)

I'm really in the mood for a game like Shovel Knight after listening to some chiptune tracks the other day. Something fair, but challenging would be ideal. Must have a good soundtrack!

Along these lines I've already played:

  • Shovel Knight
  • Celeste
  • The Messenger
  • Hollow Knight (well, in terms of the difficulty not the music)

Does anyone know of any I've missed? They don't necessarily have to be modern indie games - old NES/SNES games for example. SMB3 and SMW are classics.

Not a game suggestion but a music one: Master Boot Record. It should match your style I think.

Not heard of that one! I can't seem to find it online - unless is the game called Virtuaverse and Master Boot Record did the music?

I hadn't actually realized the Virtuaverse album was for a game lol, I just really like MBR. I know they've got some songs in ULTRAKILL too.

Oh I completely misread your earlier comment lol. They sound good though! I've heard great things about ULTRAKILL too

Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
