What is a platform game?

A platformer is a game where you move through levels by jumping across platforms, avoiding traps, and dealing with enemies. Most are 2D side‑scrollers, some are 3D. Common mechanics include double jump, wall‑jump, dash, checkpoints, power‑ups, and boss fights. Subgenres range from metroidvania and puzzle‑platformers to auto‑runners, rhythm games, physics climbs, and shooter‑platformers. Think of classics like Mario or Mega Man, then add modern twists and speedrun routes.
