Some of the best games and characters came from 2D Platformers. This is by far the hardest Top 10 I've ever had to make, so I had to set some ground rules for myself: 1) only one platforming game per franchise, and 2) no Metroidvania games (that's a list for another day). Let's jump into my Top 10 2D Platformers of all time!

@josephhawkins7974 3 года назад

I legit do consider those as separate series since they're considered separate by Nintendo too. Like, they only released Mario Land games portably (3D Land on 3DS, 3D World on WiiU and now Switch), and the land games have had different power ups and controls since it's inception. Yoshi's Island has been the basis for the Yoshi series of games ever since, including Story, Wooly World, and Crafted World.

@RobertIDK 3 года назад

The note about Super Meat Boy kick-starting the indie revolution is so true. I genuinely remember that game being absolutely huge, and thinking "wait, this is an indie game?" because to my knowledge at that time, we'd never seen an independently developed and published game reach that insane level of popularity. Crazy to think how it's not uncommon for an independent game like Among Us to become the next big thing. Times have really changed

Since 10 is too little, here's some more Jirard snubbed: - Kirby: Planet Robobot is the BEST Kirby game with a great sci-fi twist - Fez is one hell of a platformer with simple yet great use of perspective - Braid is smart about how it makes you use time rewinding Rayman Legends is peak 2D Rayman (Origins is good too) - the Wario Land series IN GENERAL is a fun series that no one talks about - Klonoa is 2.5D so it kinda doesn't count but it should - Freedom Planet is as good as any of Sonic's best games - Oddworld is Caddy's favorite for good reason - Shantae & the Pirate's Curse is a fantastic entryway for Metroidvania, even moreso than Hollow Knight

Donkey Kong Country was my first video game and it still withstands the test of time as being one of my favorite games of all time. The Donkey Kong Country series is pure and utter brilliance, from the music to the characters to the visuals. Everything about it is unmatched perfection. I know Nintendo is busy with celebrating Mario, Zelda and Pokemon anniversaries right now, but I would LOVE to see a celebration of Donkey Kong Country's upcoming 30th anniversary. It would be a dream come true to have all 3 original DKC games remade in the Tropical Freeze engine (or something entirely different) and re-released in a bundle of sheer awesomeness!

@just9019 3 года назад

@@strrjms yeah, the message wasn’t lost on us. We got it. What we’re saying is ranking anything can be hard for that exact set of reason. Ranking dogs is hard because some dogs are good (or bad) for a specific reason. The comment was just dumb not confusing

Honorable mention : Cuphead

@tolstartheking Год назад

Cuphead is less focused on platforming and is more of a boss rush. So I feel that it is an entirely different thing and is not a 2d platformer.

@theunholybanana4745 10 месяцев назад

@@tolstartheking sonic mania is just holding right, the fun is from going fast through fairly easy platforming. Cuphead is a bosh rush but the whole game is difficult platforming.

@derickstark4261 3 года назад

@@kirbyfazendoummoonwalk9214 Disagree with you on that one imo. Storytelling through world design, a game that branches off leaving you with the tools to choose how and where you want to proceed, with unforgiving combat and platforming, balanced by thousands of charm combinations to keep it refreshing. If anything could be faulted perhaps it would be the plot of lack of depth filled characters-but the white palace flashbacks, learning about the King and Queen and their five defenders, and the original hollow knight was enough to keep my satisfied. A unique art design and score, a lengthy full “campaign” for the 15$ price, not to mention there’s multiple amazing DLC for free....it’s undoubtedly worthy of the praise.

Both of those games are 2d platformers. 2d platformer is a genre not an art style so yooka laylee is fine despite having a 2.5D art style. And I don’t even know why you said “here’s mega man” when mega man X is very clearly a 2d platformer lmao
