Sure. Use ay, or acceleration y for gravity, change vy for jump if player is touching wall bottom. Then have a tile map.

Boss battle oriented platformer?  
Like, the main thing about the game is you fight bosses.

i _desperately_ want new parts (or another genre)

Yeah, Superkid6613, you could do Jungle Jump Platformer from next-level skillmaps. I did it once, and it’s really good. It teaches all the platformer mechanics and at the end there are about 10 premade tilemaps which you can use and change the assets to anything you like!
