What are some good *easy* 2d platformers on Steam.

I grew up playing Mario Bros and I loved them but I suck at platformers. Games like Super Meat Booy are jusst too hard for me. What's a fun casual 2d platformer I could try?

You can try out Freedom Planet. If you can get over character designs, you'll have a great time. There's a demo of it, so there's no harm in trying it out.

Sonic Mania springs to mind.

Seconding Freedom Planet.

DuckTales Remastered also has different difficulty settings.

I haven't played Treasure Adventure World, but I have played Treasure Adventure Game, which is freeware on GOG.

This has a pretty gradual difficulty curve.

This is pretty quick and has difficulty settings.

Castle of Illusion (remake)
Sonic Generations (it has both 2D and 3D stages)
Sonic 1 (using saves it is not that hard)

Cally's Caves 3 and probably the other ones. It's fun shootin up the badguys fun.

My game ShapeShifter is coming out in 3 weeks and on the easiest difficulty level my 7 year old son can get to the middle of the game and keeps on going these days...

It's full game free, no ads :-)

"Easy" is relative. Shovel Knight is pretty chill, for me at least.

The Megaman collections are nice, but with the rewind and ♥♥♥♥, "difficulty" isn't even applicable.

Commander Keen is classics, but a bit brutal at times.
