So recently I was thinking how games with pixel art graphics are popular nowadays, and I was wondering if there are new games being made with other kinds of "retro" graphics, for example, games that look like the PS1 or PS2 eras.

Any recommendations?

There's been a recent boom in retro-style 3D platformers, so there's no shortage of good options to choose from:

Bomb Rush Cyberfunk
Lunistice
Pseudoregalia
Toree 3D and the rest of the Toree series
Frogun
Corn Kidz 64
Cavern of Dreams

Upcoming:

Toree Saturn
The Big Catch
DoubleShake (technically 2.5d)

There are more, but these are the ones I can think of.

Well, Lunistice, Paeudoregalia, Corn Kidz 64, and Cavern of Dreams are now all on my list because the screenshots make them look like fun games to play.
