Besides the obvious.... Muppet Monster Adventure! The idea of classic Universal monsters mixed with The Muppets is genius (and was almost a movie), throw in 3D platforming and I'm totally sold!

Is it a bunch of extra work to make all friendly NPCs react to Flit's attacks? Yes.
Am I doing it anyway because funny?... Also yes.
(Again, ignore the placeholder Spyro music I'm jammin to)

Ten More Platformers To Look Forward To
YouTube video by Paralysing Punch Ten More Platformers To Look Forward To

Thought I'd do a part 2 and go through more upcoming, cool-looking platformers!
youtu.be/M-rzK9_EsCU

Got some games from @dinosaurbytes.bsky.social @playtonicgames.com @karatkuro.bsky.social @billiebustup.com and a bunch more.

Dare me to do a part 3.

A few neat additions to help Flit feel more grounded as you explore levels!
Her wings bend if they collide with walls, she'll also push against a wall if you run into it and will now reorient to match the slop of a standable incline!
(Again ignore the AE music I'm jamming to...)

Be honest, if you found out that platypuses came from another planet, would you even be surprised? ๐Ÿฆ‡

One of my favourite 3D platformer design features is when a level loops round on itself to let you explore from another perspective ๐Ÿฆ‡

Far too early to talk about platforms tbh. My last game came to Switch though, so there's always a possibility!

Maybe once or twice (a month).

The "grounded" feeling of it is a big part of why it's still my favourite Mario game. Very little in the way of random floating shapes or abstract level design (outside of the self-contained FLUDDless bits). I love that kinda stuff, when the world is built to make the platforming geo blend in!

Taught myself to make replica Muppets back in 2019. Purely because Muppet Monster Adventure never had any official merch, despite being the best video game of all time... Still the only one I ever made lol

For me Max has always fit my specific workflow better, but there's definitely some "what I'm used to" bias there (been using it since I was a teenager). May well be worth giving a shot if you can "find a way" to try it out ๐Ÿ‘€

Ah the joys of lining up a texture with no defining features onto every polygon, so that a river flows in the correct direction...

That was the one part of this that raised an eyebrow, when the ghost boy was playing Medi 1 and being told how the new one is better in every way. Otherwise very enjoyable though, running around the Natural History Museum at night seems like a great laugh!
