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 Pirate 

One who against all medical advice and common sense decides to not just lift weights at the gym, but instead decides to lift ALL of them. Platform pirates are often spotted on the platform with red faces, bulging neck veins and a general sense of pissed-off-ness not just at the impossibility of lifting the weight, but of the world.

Person A: Hey Schmicky! Look over there, that f***er is making away with all our weights like a drunken sailor making off with wenches.
Person B: That's not a sailor, that's a f***ing Platform Pirate! Don't f*** with him, he's on a mission!
