There's the thrift shop Bame Boy. To be honest, the audio stuff is catching my attention more. You've got some interesting modal stuff going on. Seems like you'd be great at wavetable chiptunes. You can get some really unconventional harmony out of that too with sampling, like some of the stuff out of Earthbound.

To be honest I realised about halfway through that the music making aspect was way more interesting to me than figuring out the logic of my own code. I wouldn't even know where to begin with sampling, but some of the sample heavy stuff by Hideki Naganuma for Jet Set Radio or DnB made entirely out of 70s drum samples is really interesting to me, or something like Street Fighter Third Strike.
Crazy, I never played Jet Set Radio but I recognize a lot from the OST. The Amen Break in DnB is so iconic, but has a really sad story about the original drummer. I wanted to share this specific sample for you to check out: https://www.whosampled.com/sample/20334/Hirokazu-Tanaka-Boris%27-Cocktail-Leroy-... this was used in Earthbound and Toby Fox uses it to great effect by assigning it to a keyboard.
