Check out Ufo50. Based on your comment I think you will thoroughly enjoy it.

It’s a fake compilation of 50 games made by an imagined video game studio from the 80s.

They take retro sensibilities and incorporate contemporary game mechanics.

It is an absolute joy.

It's also from the makers of Spelunky - one of the tightest precision platformers out there.

This seems very similar to the GameCenter CX games, which is basically the "Nintendo World Championships" Switch game, but with made-up games, and it was for the DS.
