!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Platformers are just running and jumping towards the right and repeating.
Old school ones. Anything half modern lets you go left as well.
But the goal is always to the right (counting metroidvanias as their own genre)
super metroid final boss is left
Super Mario's boss is right.
Both sides are equally bad.
Not really. Super Meat Boy is a platformer and definitely isn't always to the right.
Same thing with i want to be that guy
