I've been on a serious platformer grind recently and wanted to see if any of you had any favorites. I'm sure I'm missing some but below are the ones I can think of off the top of my head that I've loved in no particular order --
Definition: A platform game (often simplified as platformer or jump 'n' run games) is a video game genre and subgenre of action games in which the core objective is to move the player character between points in a rendered environment. Platform games are characterized by their level design featuring uneven terrain and suspended platforms of varying height that requires use of the player character's abilities, such as jumping and climbing, to navigate the player's environment and reach their goal. Other acrobatic maneuvers may factor into the gameplay as well, such as swinging from objects such as vines or grappling hooks, jumping off walls, air dashing, gliding through the air, being shot from cannons or bouncing from springboards or trampolines.
Banjo Tooie
Banjo Kazooie
Super Mario Odyssey
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Mario Sunshine
Super Mario 64
Psychonauts 2
Conker's Bad Fur Day
Yooka Laylee
Limbo
Mirror's Edge: Catalyst
Ori and the Will of the Wisps
Ori and the Blind Forest
Unravel 1 & 2
I've never beaten the old old Super Mario Bros and Yoshi games and Donkey Kong Country and Sonic and Kirby (the non-3D platformer ones) but I've always enjoyed them. Some of them you can't really SAVE which is why it's always been a pain. I will add them here as honorary mentions but since I haven't beaten them I can't really call out specifics. Played them so much as a kid though.
Never beat Hollow Knight either because it was so fucking hard and I rage quit. It was really good though.
Always wanted to try Shovel Knight, Rayman, Ratchet & Clank, and Crash Bandicoot. Been an Xbox guy my whole life so I haven't had the option to play some.
Pretty sure I played Little Big Planet but I forget. | --------------------

Celeste was really good | "So, uh, what are we saying here? If we save LA from a nuclear bomb, then you and I can get together for dinner and a movie?"

Heard good things about that one! Seems more oldschool but I guess that's what it's going for so I never tried it.
I wish there was a way for me to play the Ratchet and Clank games! | --------------------

Some of these are unplayable like Ratchet & Clank since I don’t have Playstation. I’m probably forgetting some games. Pretty sure I’ve beaten some of old mario games and donkey Kong and Yoshi games but can’t remember so will ideally replay one day | --------------------
