I want to make a platformer next, but I don't want to do a Mario clone. Does anyone have any ideas?

Nothing complex like a Metroidvania or even a Sonic clone (physics would be a nightmare).

@binkle I briefly played that. I would still like to have enemies, at least.

@xianc78 @Tadano Go old school wario land like sml 3 or virtual boy wario land.
@xianc78 Wario Land 3 mainly, and even then not to the degree of being a full metroidvania. Wario games usually have a focus on exploration using goofy transformations. Ideally you also get some Wario Land 4 speed too.
@xianc78 Megaman type? Meaning gun of some kind and enemies?

@ItsSkyDragonz I suck at Mega Man, but maybe. I probably won't implement any complex shit the series is known for though, but I do like how levels are played out of order, so I don't have to bother creating gradual difficulty.
