Side Scrolling Games
3 games
Description
Left to right, obstacle to obstacle, that's the rhythm every side scrolling game runs on - and this small stack of three proves how much you can do with it. Jiffy keeps things quick and light. Strike Force: Action Platformer turns the same left-to-right push into a fight, throwing enemies at you as you go. My Clearn Robot takes the format somewhere stranger, letting a robot's-eye view carry the level instead of a straightforward run.
What ties them together is the format, not the mood. You're always moving forward, always reading what's ahead before it becomes a problem, and every title here plays that setup differently. That's the whole draw of a tag like this - familiar shape, different game underneath each time.
All 3 run straight in your browser, no download, no waiting around. If you like your platforming with a bit more punch, the wider Action games section has plenty more in that vein, and Arcade games covers the reflex-heavy stuff if that's what you're after next.
