I really liked Zero Sievert. An extraction shooter with some nice missions. Also Wall World.

Broforce, fun for up to four players.
Dome keeper!!
If you finish Dome Keeper and liked the concept, give Wall World a try next. I liked it even better!
Children of Morta for me.
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.
It’s not pixelated but if you like Vampire Survivors you should totally check out Brotato!
I enjoyed Titan Souls. It's basically a no-nonsense boss battle game, but without the extra excessively long fights. Only one boss was annoying to get back to, and most weren't too annoying to defeat.
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.
King's Quest V for me. I love Sierra games.
Yeah, their pixel art/animation is the benchmark for the industry.
To the moon and APICO come to mind :D
Has anyone tried the final fantasy pixel remasters?
Haven't tried the remasters but I did come here to say that my favorite pixel game of all time is FF6. I know part of it is just nostalgia but I also just absolutely love the story and the mechanics. The magic system is great and I personally enjoyed it more than what was put into place in 7 with materia.
Knytt Stories. It's a free game with downloadable levels, and you can make your own as well with the built-in level designer. It's a really chill platformer.
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.
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).
It's still in early access, but Traveller's Rest is very relaxing and chill.
Hotline Miami. Does Superhot count?
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!
