I love indie games that replicate the graphics and style of the N64, especially platformers. The ones in bold are my personal favorites. Sorry for the lack of links, this sub doesn't allow them.
/r/Games usually removes suggestion requests that are either too general (eg "Which PS3 games are the best?") or too specific/personal (eg "Should I buy Game A or Game B?"), so this thread is the place to post any suggestion requests like those, or any other ones that you think wouldn't normally be worth starting a new post about.
This thread is set to sort comments by 'new' on default.
Obligatory Advertisements
If you want to post requests like this during the rest of the week, please post to other subreddits like /r/gamingsuggestions, /r/ShouldIBuyThisGame, or /r/AskGames instead.

Unfortunately, the PC patch requires a little more testing, so we have to delay the release slightly. It will be released sometime this week. We will update this post once it's available. In the meantime, the PS5 patch is now live. The patch notes below are appropriate for both PS5 and PC, so PC players will know what to expect later in the week!
Welcome back, friends and fans! Until Dawn Patch 1.06 is now live for PS5. To avoid spoilers, we've included some spoiler tags below. You've been warned! This major update brings a boat-load of fixes for commonly reported issues, plus new Performance and Fidelity modes for both PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro.

Hello r/Games!
I'm Sam Enright, the solo developer behind Beyond Galaxyland. It's been a long journey, but my aim was to blend the pacing of a sci-fi movie with the charm of my favorite genre: classic turn-based RPGs... and to throw in some unusual elements for fun (like a touch of 2D platforming). Ultimately, I hope it offers players a uniquely refreshing experience!
ANYWAYS! A bit about the plot: Step into the shoes of Doug, a high schooler unexpectedly whisked off to the bizarre world of Galaxyland, and his journey to get back home. Along with your loyal guinea pig sidekick, Boom Boom, you'll explore a bunch of neat alien planets, engage in strategic combat, and unravel the secrets of Galaxyland!
