Whew, between Biomenace Remastered, Haunted Lands and Arksync, I feel like a kid again. There was a very distinct flavor to DOS platform shooters of the early-to-mid 90s that has largely been left behind. Nice to see I'm not the only one who thinks there was a spark to them worth nurturing.

All three of them sand down quality-of-life issues and make the burn go down a bit easier (especially Biomenace, which was extremely mean in its later episodes before), but they're still tough and uncompromising. Haunted Lands and Arksync even add a bit of extraction shooter stakes to the design!
