Are you good at platformers?

[Pumpkin]

It is a very popular genre, but that doesn't mean everyone is good at them!

I suck

[Bubba]

It's probably the genre that I excel in the most. Thousands of hours poured into Mario games have honed my skills. I am awesome.

[Formalhaut]

I do pretty well, I like to think. Honestly Mario is pretty easy.

[Karifean]

I'm pretty awesome at them.

[Fynn]

I'm not terrible at them, though they're not my genre of choice, and that's RPGs that I'm good at, and rhythm games which I'm unbeatable at.

[Del Murder]

I don't have the time (or skill) for those Mario Maker levels that require you to memorize a series of pinpoint steps to complete it but otherwise I rock these games.

[Rez09]

Platformers are my favorite genre but, as Super Meat Boy has shown me, I'm not especially good at them.

[Depression Moon]

I think I'm decent, but hell Champion's Road doesn't make me feel like it. I've been trying to beat it for a year now.

[krissy]

im pretty much the worst

[sharkythesharkdogg]

There was a time when I could get through the Megamans, Contras, Castlevanias, and Metroids like a boss. Find all the secrets, never die, etc. I guess those are a little different from Mario, Sonic, Earthworm Jim, or whatever, but I was pretty great at those too.

That continued with the 3D platformers like Mario 64, Jax and Daxter, and Tomb Raider.

Now I'd say I'm very average. I don't play them nearly as much.

[Loony BoB]

When I think of platformer games, I think of Crash Bandicoot, Aladdin, Sonic, Earthworm Jim, etc. I'm decent at them, but they aren't a favourite genre of mine by any means. Just one that I occasionally play.

[Wolf Kanno]

Once upon a time I was pretty good at them, but I've probably lost my skills since I don't play the genre as much anymore.

[blackmage_nuke]

I'm ok at them if they are designed intuitively or puzzle platformers and not the type that require insane timing or precise spacial alignment.

[FFNut]

Though I rather enjoy them, Im not very good at them. Get at me on a sports game though and prepare to get taken to school. Especially a hockey game!

My Platform Gaming List:

Spyro 2: Completed (but I think the epilogue is a cop out pile of crap)
Crash Bandicoot: Completed (but didn't get all the Crystals)
Rayman 3: Attack of the Hoodlums: What the-? I get through half of it then- big boss on a stage surrounded by firey lava thing I always fall into? Forget it
Early Sonic Games: Still attempting them from time to time
Mario 1 - 3: Can't play them well...I'm sorry but...I can't....
Castlevania IV: Love what you can do with that whip, and the music and graphics are retrotastic but- sadly can't complete it.
