Pretty games with 2D characters and 3D environments
This is my jam. I love them. ...I'll play more of them. one day.
Definitely taking suggestions! I'd love to see more games that do this.
Roughly chronologically ordered, but series grouping takes priority.

Not 100% comfortable including this, but it does technically count... barely
Is this a separate game? I've never played it

Pac-Dots, Fruit, Pac-Man's perfectly spherical body
The latter part is the only reason this counts and Super Mario 64 doesn't.

Found this through making this list and I love it now
I really don't want to include this
Not exactly the aesthetic I think for "2D sprites on 3D", but definitely important and influential!

paper mario/bug fables
Sonic rush does the exact opposite of this lmao
Paradise Killer and Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor
@JaxMagnetic Yeah, and so do a lot of DS games in general (New Super Mario Bros.) and late 90's JRPGs (Final Fantasy). I'm honestly not a big fan of it in 3D, because it really messes with my spatial awareness if done improperly
Tomba!
Tomba 2 doesn't count as it is all 3D

Yeah!! Wasn't there an indie game inspired by it too?
Breath of Fire 3 and 4 look great!

Ducktales Remastered, Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart, Shantae: 1/2 Genie Hero, Starfy, and uhh does Sonic Battle count?

Sonic Battle probably counts more than Mario Kart 64 and Paper Mario! Which Starfy game are you talking about?
Live A Live remake and the upcoming Dragon Quest 3 HD Remake would also count for this list
