Broforce, fun for up to four players.
Any of the Final Fantasy pixel remaster would be my answer. They are not like the newer remakes, they hold true to the originals with a face-lift.
Check out Chained Echoes.
The Messenger. Often gets compared to ninja gaiden (for good reason) but I actually got mega man X vibes from it. Awesome 2D platforming with metroidvania elements and a great gimmick. I also really loved Celeste and Katana Zero.
All three games have really responsive controls that feel great to use, which to me is the most important aspect of 2d games (outside of adventure/narrative games)
Dome keeper!!
If you finish Dome Keeper and liked the concept, give Wall World a try next. I liked it even better!
Paper Please. They tell multiple stories, some you can invest and follow or cut short with a simple button (DETAINED!). The gameplay is also interesting, having to maintain and follow all these little details reminds me of some brain training games. The comedic writing as well of some of the characters is also brilliant (looking at your Georgi).
Celeste. Was my first pixel art style game but oh has it been fun
Such a great game!
Funny how no one mentioned the Quest for Glory or any of those old Sierra point and click adventure games. Oh, and those games from LucasArts as well.
On more modern one I think Dead Cells executed pretty well, since my eyes don't feel tired after play compare to other more action driven pixel art games.
I'm sure there's more if I sit and think for longer, but right now I'd have to say Blasphemous - I went into it completely blind to what it was, and ho boy did it blow me away. Everything just felt good about that game.
Death Trash is an isometric openworld rpg, amazing pixel art. It features a post apocalyptic world with horrors, can be a bit gross sometimes tho. Very good Indie game.
To the moon and APICO come to mind :D
It’s not pixelated but if you like Vampire Survivors you should totally check out Brotato!
Children of Morta for me.
It only shares the roguelite elements with vampire survivors, but I'll drop a recommend for The Dungeon Beneath here. Super simple but pretty addicting.
Gurk and Gurk II on Android are fun 8bit swords and sorcery...
You should check out 20 Minutes Till Dawn. It's a better looking version of vampire survivor.
I like Rimworld, trying to survive and build a functional lil town while keeping everyone alive. Eventually expanding enough to build a spaceship and escape the planet to win the game. I never have though I just put on lowest difficulty and watch my lil kitty people doodl about.
While it has simple graphics, Rimworld is not a pixel game. It is a great game, though!
