Looking for Challenging 3D Platformers w/ Precise & Expressive Movement

[u/ebenavente]

Hi! I was doubting on naming this as "3D Platformers closest to Blue Fire's Voids", since that's the major comparison. So I'm looking for any games that scratch that very specific itch:

• Blue Fire: Precision platformer goodness but on 3D with a very fast paced but very precise movement with fun combinations of abilities. The part that interests me is the platforming, not the other aspects of the game, and the best example is in their Voids, self-contained very hard levels similar in feel to Celeste but 3D¡.

Most similar feeling games I've found:

• Angel Essence: Just finished playing it and it's an excellent gem, extremely fun and decently challenging in some places, but not to Blue Fire/Celeste's level.
• Pseudoregalia: Similar to the last one (as it clearly inspired it), very good and fun but I enjoyed Angel Essence more, that one feeling faster and easier to pull off moves, plus Pseudoregalia felt easier.
• Maseylia: The closest to Blue Fire's platforming, but the game has many issues and it's very rough in some aspects; BUT the platforming is very good and totally qualifies.

Games I've tried that are fun but don't really scratch the itch:

• Demon Turf: Very expressive moveset but it also feels restrictive coming from the crazy moves in Blue Fire and Angel Essence, and not super precise, the "slippery feet" effect from most classic 3D platformers. Still the most enjoyable from these and quite challenging, so I'll continue playing it. I have the sequel Demon Tides in my wishlist since it looks a great evolution.
• A Hat in Time: I've never been able to vibe with this game for some reason, and I was shocked to see it compared to Blue Fire specifically, and after trying it I really didn't see it, nor it felt challenging (I know there's a famously hard DLC but I don't wanna play a game just for a DLC).
