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!

A gorgeous woman in her 20's who often has explosive psychotic episodes and an unstable/unpredictable demeanor similar to an American alligator. She has a ravenous appetite for live male meat, and she frequently performs multiple death rolls during sexual intercourse.
There is no way I could handle that chic I met at the bar last night, she was a hell of a fuck, but she is a straight gate.
