platformejere

Platformejere, also known as platformers, are a subgenre of video games that emphasize jumping and traversing between platforms. The genre originated in the 1980s with games like "Donkey Kong" and "Mario Bros." and has since evolved into various subcategories, including side-scrolling, 3D, and puzzle-platformers. Platformers typically involve navigating a character through a series of levels, each containing obstacles and enemies that must be overcome through precise timing and control.

The core mechanics of platformers include jumping, running, and sometimes climbing or swimming, all of which require quick reflexes and strategic planning. The gameplay often involves solving puzzles, collecting items, and avoiding hazards. The narrative and story elements in platformers can vary widely, from simple objectives like reaching the end of a level to more complex narratives with character development and plot twists.

Platformers have been influential in the development of video game mechanics and have contributed to the evolution of the gaming industry. They have also been a staple in the gaming community, with many classic titles being remastered and re-released, and new games continuing to innovate within the genre. The genre's emphasis on skill and precision has made it a favorite among both casual and hardcore gamers.
