Multi-Platform Simp

A fail troll insult used by console fanboys to shame gamers who play on multiple gaming consoles and possibly PC.
The multi-platform simps got cucked by the great Phil Spencer because there was no mention of Halo or Xbox Game Pass going to Nintendo Switch.

Ability-Gated Exploration Platformer

An ability-gated exploration platformer (AGEP) is a genre term for a video game that is heavily based around exploration and non-linearity, with certain areas generally inaccessible without upgrades or new unlockable abilities.

The game space is often open-world or semi-open, and involves encountering obstacles that the player cannot usually overcome without later backtracking. This is the generic term for the genre more popularly known as "Metroidvania" or "Zeldavania."
I'm working on a new game. It's an ability-gated exploration platformer inspired by Dead Cells and Guacamelee!

platform

A gaming term that also merges two meanings: it refers to a synonym for the "side scroller" genre, where the gameplay involves moving sideways through levels, and the console or operating system on which a video game is played.
Whether you're playing on a console or PC, the platform can greatly affect your gaming experience, especially in side scrollers!

free speech platform

1. A platform that claims people can say whatever they feel, but when tested actually censors speech criticizing right-wing politics
2. A platform that actually does post everything people say, but ends up censored anyway because anything meaningful gets buried under more "correct" topics and probably never seen
1. I posted facts about Trump's connection to tax evasion on a free speech platform. It was promptly removed by the moderators.
2. I posted my theory about Sonic the Hedgehog on a free speech platform because the mainstream Sonic fandom was attacking it. But it just got covered up by Fortnite stuff. Guess my speech still isn't free.
