Informational June 14
[Review Pending] Clearly inspired by Vanillaware games like Odin Sphere and Muramasa, but with a teen goth spin. Definitely riffing off that iconic gigantic segmented sprite style.
Informational June 14
[Review Pending] Souls'y-vania with more than a little bit of Bloodborne inspiration. Plus big chunky Vanillaware-style segmented sprites, and clever 3D models that match the style surprisingly well.
Recommended June 14
Top notch roguelite character action brawler using characters borrowed from the Blazblue series. Still growing, with good DLC and good room for build shenanigans. A bit of Vanillaware spirit, too.
Recommended June 14
Stylish and surprisingly tough character action platformer. Existing at the intersection of Ninja Gaiden (or The Dishwasher), Mommy's Best Games and Vanillaware, with huge, chunky stretchy sprites.
Informational June 14
[Review Pending] Sequel to Fallen Legion: Rise to Glory, with the same Vanillaware-inspired giant sprites and Valkyrie Profile-styled combat. Looks to have more traditional JRPG structure this time.
Informational June 14
[Review Pending] A mixture of roguelike 'pick three' style progression, Valkyrie Profile-inspired turn-based combo combat and huge, chunky, Vanillaware-styled segmented sprite art and huge monsters.
Informational June 14
[Review Pending] Oddball roguelite platformer sequel to one of Konami's oldest games. Despite being all 3D, it captures the look (and feel) of Vanillaware platform brawlers like Muramasa.
Informational June 14
[Review Pending] Very Vanillaware-inspired character action platformer with huge chunky sprites and some light RPG elements. Despite some eastern inspirations, it's based on Gallic Celtic myth.
Recommended June 14
Fun character action platformer with big, chunky Vanillaware-inspired enemy and boss sprites, but a story that blends sci-fi, Stanley Parable style meta-commentary and some other stuff I won't spoil.
Informational June 14
[Review Pending] Vanillaware-esque platform RPG spinoff from the Suikoden-like Hundred Heroes. Player characters are smaller and restrained, but the big monsters are pure Vanilla.
