If someone liked Shovel Knight, what others are they likely to enjoy? Dead Cells? Owlboy?

^ Heavy emphasis on Ducktales as it basically invented the pogo stick down thrust move that makes most the platforming in shovel knight feel really cool

[VerminatorX]

Megaman series, NES Batman, NES Ninja Gaiden games, Duck Tales, etc.

Shovel Knight is basically mix of best elements from old school platformers, so you'll find ShoveL Knight elements in most of these.
