what are some games with peak late 80s/early 90s aesthetics?
You know, extremely detailed and dynamic artwork with airbrush techniques, very action-oriented, and most importantly, a high concentration of SOUL

What you're probably looking for is Amiga stuff with bad game play. Check out like Shadow of the Beast and Stormlord. Shit like that.

I was thinking more on the lines of Contra III or Strider.

All Strider is a goddamn unrivaled masterpiece but maybe check out Alien Soldier and Alisia Dragoon

He said he wants stuff with peak 80/early 90s aesthetics, like Contra III, and you say Turrican. You fucking aesthetics-blind euro geek. Just shut the fuck up.

It's not that good. If you want to play top Amiga platformers, you need Yo! Joe! Beat the ghosts or Ruff'n'Tumble.

Stormlord is very bad but it rules aesthetically. Everything is always moving and making nose like an edutainment game

Fantastic art work.
It does look like the action-packed covers from Konami games, like Contra, Castlevania, TMNT IV, etc.
Imagine a Ghostbusters run n' gun by Konami in the early 90s. Just imagine.
