GOG is having a "Pixel Worlds" sale, with deals on games (DRM-free as usual, of course) that use pixel graphics. It will continue for two more days and change.

https://www.gog.com/en/promo/2023_pixel_worlds

My personal highlights include the following three metroidvania titles:
Chasm -75%
Phoenotopia Awakening -60%
Timespinner -50%

There are several pages of games on sale; others famous ones include Stardew Valley, the Contra Anniversary Collection, two of the Shantae games, and One Step From Eden (i'm gonna pick up that last one).

I'll second a Chasm recommendation. If you like Symphony of the Night, particularly in the way it feels to play Alucard, so did these devs.

And the Metal Slugs. Still some of the best pixel art in the biz
