I'm looking for a 2D platformer (on PC, of course) that is fun on both singleplayer and local multiplayer. I already own 2 controllers so that's not a problem. Examples would be Rayman Legends/Origins and Broforce, but I already own those, so other recommendations would be much aprecciated. Thanks!

Uh Spelunky maybe? I can't think of many platformers that are both singleplayer and multiplayer.

Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures is one of the best action-platformers of the past 5 years. It's really incredibly well done.

Edit: Ah, crap, missed the multiplayer part.

Wyv & Keep is a Lost Vikings-esque platformer if you like that, local is limited to two players on one keyboard though. It's not a big deal because the game uses 4-5 buttons per player but if you're not playing with someone you want to get all snug with (or maybe the weather is stupid hot to be that close to someone) then I wouldn't recommend it.

@nime: Yeah, I've been making a list with games I've found and they're not that much to be fair

Rayman Legends/Origins

Broforce

Spelunky

Trine 1 and 2

BattleBlock Theater

Guacamelee!

And that's about it, but I wouldn't expect many more games cause it's a REALLY specific thing

@csl316: With local multiplayer though it would be the best fun/rage combo ever, it would be awesome

It's not multiplayer, but I just played through Axiom Verge. It's fucking great and deserves to be selling way better than it is. It even supports DS4 without having to emulate Xinput.

I started playing Mercenary Kings last Night. It's great, it's like an AMIGA game.

It's not multiplayer, but Rouge Legacy deserves a mention.

Trials?

There are some good single player ones. Ori and the Blind Forest is pretty good.

Super Cyborg was released recently. Maybe not what you'd consider a straight up platformer, more of a run 'n gun thing. It's pretty much a straight clone of Probotector (the European version of Contra with robots instead of humans), and kinda rad. Got two player co-op online or locally.

Thomas was Alone was alright. Also liked Electronic Super Joy even though I stunk at it.
