ah-Dorchaichcringe fun fact: i will never create platformer games bc i just plain suck at them. never was able to finish any platformer fr, even those old ones on phones were too much of a challenge somehow. so i just look at all the pretty platformers n kinda envy those who can enjoy them lol. cant create a one bc just wont be able to even test it normally.
Yora@ahDorchaich Are Metroidvanias platformers? If not, I think I never played any platformers.
Except maybe a total of 20 minutes of Mario on my friend's Gameboy 34 years ago.

Thank you for mentioning the 'Metroidvanias' genre of games, it's a new word for me. :P After a little research i found out that played similar games before, but i also found a lot of new cool looking ones.

I think they can't quite counts as fully platformers, but they have platformers mechanics in them, sometimes a lot, so you most likely played a few.

@yora tbh i was sure metroidvainians are a sub-class of platformers... did a wee research, realised i was wrong. also realised i suck at two genres then looool.
