The retro homebrew scene is full of magic, but I've rarely seen anything like this: a solo dev simultaneously building an original game for six different retro platforms. This 3D platformer, called Noah and the Poohloudies, is filled with creature collecting and raising elements, and it's in development for PS1, N64, Saturn, Dreamcast, 3DO, and N-Gage. Yes, really. That N-Gage.
In a 2021 interview, developer Walfrido Abejón described the game as "Super Mario 64 meets Pokemon meets Tamagochi." You're charged with rescuing a bunch of robots, which have been driven mad by an impending meteor crash. So you've got to defeat them, capture them, and store them in your backpack to make use of their special abilities – all the while making sure they've got the food, water, and medicine they need to survive.
