 Platform game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Platform game, or platformer, is a video game genre characterized by the non-gun using character having to climb up and down, or jump from and to, platforms and ledges, while fighting enemies and collecting objects required to fully complete the game.
Platform games originated in the early 1980s and made the transition to 3D in the mid-1990s.
Platform games appeared in the early 1980s, when video game consoles were not yet powerful enough to render 3D.

 Game Revolution Review Page - Game Revolution
Unlike a Skullmonkeys style platform game, you sort of break the third dimensional barrier by moving in and out of the backgrounds, though not in a truly 3D sense like Spyro - you're still stuck on a 2D plane.
However, simplicity is hardly synonymous with tortuous, and the game really shines when you begin to explore the interesting ways to depose of the enemy.
Needing a shot in the arm, the platform genre is now resurrected by Interplay in Wild 9, a game long in the development oven.

That way, all the higher level data, like Characters, state of the game, option settings, and so on are all handled in generic high-level classes.
