Return to the Sky

DigiPen

3 (654)

Return to the Sky is a 2D platformer where you play the North Star, who's decided to take a human form (yes, it seems stars can do this) to save herself from certain death. Upon arriving to Earth, however, your North Star realizes she's not safe here, either. A giant purple skull, created by pollution and the evil that consumes the planet, is waiting for the star so it can destroy her, too. So your star begins to run. Return to the Sky might seem like an automatic platformer where you only have to worry about jumping, but it's not. It's actually a traditional platformer where you have to dodge the holes, jump from wall to wall, and even catch a ride on the breeze. Return to the Sky is a fun platformer. Besides having great pixelated graphics and an excellent soundtrack, it also has a simple gameplay that might never go out of style.

Salvage Youth

Scrap Metal Games

2 (517)

Salvage Youth is a 2D platform game where you control three kids - which you can switch between by pressing a button - who are trying to build a spaceship and leave Earth. Each of the three boys has a unique ability that allows him to perform certain actions that the others cannot. The gameplay is similar to that of Lost Vikings, but instead of Vikings, they're children, and instead of axes, they're using wrenches. As you play, you'll face a number of challenges, mostly divided into puzzles or platforms. The rocket the boys are trying to build is enormous and they're quite small. So, you'll have to climb, repair, jump, and throw objects in order to complete your ticket off the planet. Salvage Youth is a platform game with a touch of puzzles, lovely graphics, and a clever gameplay. Its only drawback, as with most free games, is that it's pretty short.

Lonely Knight

DigiPen

4 (873)

Lonely Knight is an action platformer where you guide a brave knight armed with a sword and arrows to a strange creature's lair. In fact, this creature is an evil cloud that throws ice shards. On your (brief) adventure, you'll have to deal with four different types of enemies. Though they may seem relatively harmless, you'll need to be careful thanks to the constant spores. The strength of Lonely Knight, which is a very short game, is there is more than one way to beat the second and longest level. That means you can easily play the game more than once. The fight against the final boss, the aforementioned evil ice-flinging cloud, is also pretty interesting. To defeat it, you'll have to use its own attacks against it. Lonely Knight is an entertaining action platformer that could be even better if it had a few more levels.

Riverside University Health System-Behavioral Health

2 (811)

Take My Hand is an exclusively cooperative 2D platformer (it supports two Xbox 360 controllers simultaneously) where you have to run at top speed through a series of settings that are crumbling beneath you. The game features lots of elements that enhance the cooperative aspect; for instance, in order to get to certain platforms sometimes one player needs to help the other reach it. Take My Hand is not your average platformer; it has a lot of parkour-style elements that have more in common with Mirror's Edge than Super Mario. For example, you can run on top of billboards, or jump from one wall to the other. All of this, though, as a couple. Visually, Take My Hand is a really special game. Although the character models are not totally spectacular, its visual style is still really colorful and refined. Take My Hand is a unique platformer that everyone should try playing with a friend. One of the best cooperative platformers you can find on PC.

Generic Platformer

N/A

4 (559)

Generic Platformer is a platformer that, despite what its name suggests, isn't very generic. In fact, you'll be given a laser gun, which you can use to destroy the levels however you wish. The objective of every level is to get to the flag at the end. But, of course, this won't be easy since your laser gun could destroy it, making it impossible to finish the level. As you play, you'll also have to collect coins and different treasures, which can obviously be destroyed as well. In fact, destroying certain items on the map will sometimes be absolutely necessary to be able to finish the level. In terms of graphics, Generic Platformer is nothing amazing, but it does have some appeal. Plus, seeing the way the laser gun destroys different surfaces is really fun to watch. Generic Platformer is a very fun platformer that (thanks to the laser gun) adds a unique component to the genre's traditional gameplay.

La Rolloux

Nal Games

4 (615)

La Rolloux is an arcade platformer where you move in a straight line on a track that is full of obstacles that you have to dodge in three different ways: jumping over them, sliding on the ground, or shooting at them. The unique and surprising thing about La Rolloux is the control system. You only have to use the mouse to carry out all the different actions. The character moves in a straight line automatically, and depending on the gesture you make with the mouse, he'll perform one action or another. If you move the mouse upwards he jumps, if you move it downwards he slides on the ground, and if you move it to the right he shoots. This way you can avoid the three types of obstacles that you can find: low fences, high fences, and glass doors. La Rolloux is a fun game that has several elements that make it unique. On one hand, the controls are a novelty, on the other, both the graphics and soundtrack are excellent.

Platformines

Magiko Gaming

2 (1045)

Platformines is a 2D exploration and action platformer where you can create your own characters, customizing every detail of them: hair, nose, body, clothes, etc. Once you create your character, you can start an adventure inside a randomly generated, practically infinite 2D world. Inside you find friendly characters to talk to and trade with, as well as dozens of enemies, traps, money, treasures, and lots of weapons. The main actions you can do in Platformines are jumping and shooting. Normally you aren't doing anything besides that: jumping to avoid all the enemy attacks, and shooting to kill them and get their treasures. You do all this within 2D settings that are generated as you move forward. Platformines is a really fun game that combines the best of different genres, and mixes it with excellent 16-bit graphics. Although the game's story can last for about seven hours, the randomly generated scenarios make it much more than that.

FlipFlop

FlipFlop Systems

3 (763)

FlipFlop is a first-person platformer where you have to beat a series of levels by changing gravity. As in the popular game Shift, you're completely incapable of jumping; you have to change the direction of gravity instead. This gameplay makes you go from one platform to the next, always avoiding deadly traps. To start you just have to go to simple platforms either above or below your character, but as you advance further in the game you have to calculate the speed at which you run in order to land correctly. Although FlipFlop only has six different levels, their difficulty makes it seem pretty long. If you want to finish the game you really have to master it first. There are platforms that make you bounce, others that make you slide, spikes, and lots of other things awaiting you. FlipFlop is a first-person platformer with really nice graphics. It basically takes the gameplay from Shift and translates it to a 3D world.

GRIP

Caged Element Inc.

2 (546)

GRIP is a first-person platformer where your goal is to be the first person to go from the building where the game begins to an orange ball that you have to grab from its position hundreds of meters away. GRIP's mechanics make it more interesting than other, similar games because you can grab on to any surface. That is to say, you can jump onto a wall, and instead of hitting it and falling as you would in most platformers, you will stick to the surface. Thanks to the fact that you are able to grab onto the walls, you can try to climb up them in order to access the best platforms to jump from. In fact, sometimes you will have no other choice than to leave the most obvious route and climb up the walls to the side of you in order to reach the best place to jump from. GRIP is a very fun platformer. Thanks to its mechanics that allow you to jump and grab, it provides you with an experience that is very different from those that you have seen in games like Mirror's Edge.

Pause Ahead

Askiisoft

4 (781)

Pause Ahead is a two-dimensional platform game where you control a ninja who needs to reach the end of each level. The problem? The majority of levels are impossible to finish if you're only using the jump action. The solution? Use the pause button. In Pause Ahead, the game's pause button allows you to stop everything that's happening on the screen, except for the movement and momentum of your character. That means that the saws will stop spinning and the pincers will stop snapping, but if your hero is in the middle of a jump when you hit pause, he'll keep going up until he hits the roof. To make things even more complicated, you need to complete each level within a time limit. This is pretty complicated at the beginning, but as you progress through the game, it somehow gets even more impossible, and you'll find yourself using the pause button constantly. Pause Ahead is a notable two-dimensional platform game with original gameplay that requires you to be very, very skilled if you want to get your hero to the end of the game safe and sound.

12 Angry Devs

3 (779)

Of Light and Shadow is a two-dimensional platformer in which players have to control two characters at the same time: Dr. Shadow and Mr. Light. Combining their different skills and switching between them at the correct time, you can pass all of the levels. The gameplay allows you to switch between the two protagonists at any time just presing one button. And you will have to do so, as the light will kill Dr. Shadow and the darkness will do the same to Mr. Light. In addition to this 'small inconvenience,' there's the fact that Mr. Light can run and jump, as you find in traditional platform games, while Dr. Shadow can only walk... Though he isn't affected by the laws of gravity and will always stick to the ground. Of Light and Shadow is a platform game that includes puzzle elements, and it not only has a very original and fun gameplay, but also has very good graphics as well as an interesting story starring two charismatic characters.

There are other dangers, too, like enemies you can kill with different weapons. At first you only have a knife you can throw, but later you can use a kind of carnivorous plant to kill any type of enemy. Dracula 13 is a fun platform with touches of action. It takes the best aspects of two excellent 16-bit era games and combines them to create a fun game with lots of character ... and blood.

In the beginning of the game a dark cloud follows you around, representing the bad luck the main character has. This means that you have to constantly dodge the lightning strikes it generates if you want to survive. Nubarron is a pretty difficult and fun platform game in 2D with excellent graphics.

Plunger Lunger

Plunger Lunger is a retro-style 2D platformer where you can use a type of grappling hook (in the shape of a plunger) to hang from different platforms in order to swing from one side to the other and get to places that would be inaccessible if you just jumped normally. The goal of the game is to try to get to the end of each of the levels as quickly as possible, something that you will need all of your skills to accomplish. Not only will you need to move your character quickly, but you will also have to move your mouse very carefully. Not only does Plunger Lunger have more than ten quite complicated levels, but it also is worth playing more than once thanks to its system of playing against the clock and thanks to the leader boards that allow you to try to do better each time you play. Plunger Lunger is a platformer with an excellent retro esthetic that will remind you a lot of Super Meat Boy. It's an excellent free game that has straightforward, entertaining gameplay.

Flood the Chamber

N/A

5 (724)

Flood the Chamber is a 2D platform game where you control a character who has to escape the depths of a dungeon that's started to flood. Players face a huge and trap-filled dungeon that does not forgive a single mistake. You need a lot of speed as you go up, since the water level rises slowly but steadily, and will kill you if you get covered in water, meaning you have to start over from the beginning. Apart from speed, Flood the Chamber requires a good dose of skills and accuracy, since most of the jumps are really hard to make. So much so, that one of the first games that this reminds you of is the (terribly difficult) I Wanna Be the Guy. Flood the Chamber only has one, immense, level, which you have to beat in a single sitting. That said, the game can last a lot longer than you think, since its difficulty level will probably make you start over several times.

Journey to the Center of the Earth is a two-dimensional platform game where you control a small explorer who is trying to dig up lost relics and reach the center of the Earth.

However, those lost seconds can be a big problem for players trying to beat Journey to the Center of the Earth in the fastest time possible. The game displays a timer at all times, so you can keep track of your best attempts. Journey to the Center of the Earth is a fun two-dimensional platform game with charming graphics. Even though it's a short game (you can finish a round in less than five minutes), you'll undoubtedly play for much longer.

TryOvC

2 (792)

Barbarians And The Necromancer's Tower is a 2D platform and action game where players control a barbarian who has to sword-fight his way through an evil necromancer's castle. The game is very similar to the first two titles from the Castlevania saga. In fact, the gameplay and graphics are almost identical. As you go through the castle, you'll find upgrades for making your sword bigger, or for getting other weapons like knifes and axes – that is, practically all the same objects you can find in the Castlevania games. Barbarians And The Necromancer's Tower is just as difficult as most other 8-bit games. Players have to be very smart to make it through the castle without letting the swarm of enemies that live there (skeletons, golems, bats, etc.) kill them. Barbarians And The Necromancer's Tower is a very fun platform and action game that fans of the Castlevania 8-bit games in particular will enjoy. A proper homage dedicated to veterans of this genre.

Final Sight

N/A

3 (643)

Final Sight is a simple platformer where you play a camel who, using her camel weapons, has to fight an evil creature threatening to kill all forms of life on Earth. The gameplay is really simple. The creature with the giant eye moves slowly upward, making the ground disappear. Your aim is to go up with it, while you try to make bombs that fall from the sky bounce off your hump and hit the giant eye. When you get five bombs to hit the giant eye, you win the game. This isn't easy, though, since controlling the camel can be a bit imprecise, and a single slip can make you fall into the void. In which case you obviously have to start over from the beginning. Final Sight is a really simple and entertaining platform game. The crazy idea behind it, as well the graphics, are its two strong points.

Fire Point

N/A

5 (823)

Fire Point is a two dimensional platform game in which players control a firefighter that has to try to rescue all of the people trapped in a series of burning buildings. In order to do so, you can use a number of different elements. The truck's fire hose will be good, but the folding ladder will also help you enter high windows and get to places that seem inaccessible. You can also interact with objects inside the buildings, including fire extinguishers and the very people (or animals) you have to rescue. In fact, you might have to grab the people you are trying to rescue and throw them out of the building. Fire Point has simple but effective pixelated graphics. It doesn't stand out for its technical aspects in general, but it is still relatively attractive. Fire Point is a platform game with some very fun puzzle touches, and it has a firefighting theme that isn't very common in the world of video games. In addition, it has a number of hilarious references to pop culture or other video games.

In the beginning you have only a knife to defend yourself, but soon you can pick up a handgun and other weapons. In any case, facing off against all the monsters is not an option in The End of the World - Remake, since there are much more of them than you and they're much stronger too. The End of the World - Remake is a 2D platform game with some action elements thrown into the mix. The combination of gameplays together with the setting make this game a super interesting experience.

You don’t just have to jump from platform to platform and fight enemy robots in the mountains; you can also talk to other friendly characters, buy objects, use potions, and ultimately manage your inventory. It's also vital that you learn to use the new spells you find, as some of the more advanced enemies in the game cannot be killed with normal attacks alone. Artilerry F is an outstanding Metroidvania developed with GameMaker. The anime styling and meticulous graphics, together with its gameplay, put it on the same level as games like Cave Story.

Excavatorrr 2

Hempuli

3 (611)

Excavatorrr 2 is a two-dimensional roguelike platform game where you have to dig as deep as you can in a randomly-generated mine while trying to collect as much gold as possible. You'll start up on the surface and use your pickaxe on blocks to begin your descent. Blocks of soil don't give you anything, but blocks containing gold gives you money. Other blocks, like those of stone, are impossible to break up. During your (typically short) adventure, you'll come face to face with tons of different enemies. Ghosts, for example, can become intangible for a few seconds, and therefore impervious to your attacks. Goblins, on the other hand, will attack you in a much more direct way. The levels in Excavatorrr 2 hold all kinds of interesting objects. Some can be used to activate special powers while others, like the coffins, can be kept in your backpack so that you can open them later on when you've found the correct key. Excavatorrr 2 is a difficult, addicting platform game.

At first you only have to deliver four gifts, but it won't take long before you have to deliver many more while you struggle with half a dozen kids. The Night Before Christmas is a fun platform game that gives you the chance to walk around in Santa Claus's boots for a few minutes. You never would have expected Santa Claus to carry a ray gun... but he does.
