I was just confused by your statement regarding 8-directional movement, because platformers archetypically don't allow the player to navigate in 8 directions (seeing as gravity is usually present).
Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga is a good example of an 8 direction platformer.
Some platform elements? The game was just as mush of a platformer as it was an RPG. And how is it not quite the same? The platforming parts were really fun. An 8 direction platformer would work easily.
