Trying to find two old PC games (2009-2016)

[midnitecarnival]

Sorry, have very vague memory but one was a platformer with graphics along the lines of "MANOS: Hands of Fate" or "Elephantasy."
All I can remember is that it was a platformer and had unconventional secrets in it like a cloud that passes by with a winged shoes/boots item on it.

The other was much like a Jeff Minter game. It was a bullet-hell, shmup with electronic sounds and techo music. Very hard on the eyes as it was extremely flashy.
If I remember correctly the game's title was an acronym.

These two games were relatively easy to find in the early days of digital distribution....

Ha ha, well I'm in my early fifties; if it makes you feel any better.
I mean - the games have had nearly a decade of indie (and amateur) titles piled on top of them since.

There rate of games released now is too fast, and on top of the already flooded market with low effort or asset flip games, you now have super fast AI diarrhea on a exponential release making thing even worse. At this rate I'll just go back to playing my old dos and console games and not even bother with new stuff.

You can climb on clouds and find items that allow you abilities like winged shoes make you fly and whatnot. Tons of items to find in the game. However the whole gamemap is filled with items to find that allow you to gain cool powers.
