HTML5 is a markup language used for structuring and presenting content on the World Wide Web.

It is the fifth and current version of the HTML standard.

In computing, cross-platform software (multi-platform, or platform independent software) is computer software that is implemented on multiple computing platforms.

Cross-platform software may be divided into two types; one requires individual building or compilation for each platform that it supports, and the other one can be directly run on any platform without special preparation, e.g., software written in an interpreted language or pre-compiled portable bytecode for which the interpreters or run-time packages are common or standard components of all platforms.

A Platform game (or platformer) is a video game which involves guiding an avatar to jump between suspended platforms and/or over obstacles to advance the game.

The player controls the jumps to avoid letting the avatar fall from platforms or miss necessary jumps.

The most common unifying element of games of this genre is the jump button, but now there are other alternative like swiping in touchscreen.

Jumping, in this genre, may include swinging from extendable arms, as in Ristar or Bionic Commando, or bouncing from springboards or trampolines, as in Alpha Waves.

These mechanics, even in the context of other genres, are commonly called platforming, a verbification of platform.

Games where jumping is automated completely, such as 3D games in The Legend of Zelda series, fall outside of the genre.

A video game developer is a software developer that specializes in video game development – the process and related disciplines of creating video games.

A game developer can range from one person who undertakes all tasks to a large business with employee responsibilities split between individual disciplines, such as programming, design, art, testing, etc.

Most game development companies have video game publisher financial and usually marketing support.

Self-funded developers are known as independent or indie developers and usually make indie games.

A video game publisher is a company that publishes video games that they have either developed internally or have had developed by a video game developer.

As with book publishers or publishers of DVD movies, video game publishers are responsible for their product's manufacturing and marketing, including market research and all aspects of advertising.
