Platforms and surfaces in video games, particularly 2D platform games, where you can jump through from below, yet they are solid when you're above them. In some cases, it's possible to drop down from that platform (most commonly by ducking and then hitting the jump button). In other cases, it's impossible to go back down from said platforms except by walking off the edge. In 2D platform games, it can be justified under the assumption that your character is not actually passing 'through' the platforms, but rather jumping 'in' or 'out' of the 2D plane (ie. the platforms may not be in the same plane; it just looks that way to the player). |

Donkey Kong Country has these. Donkey Kong Country Returns manages to recreate them in a 2.5D game — even though the platforms and Donkey Kong are rendered as 3D models, Donkey Kong can still jump up "through" them and then land on them, and it's rendered as if he were passing "in front" of the platform instead of through it, yet he doesn't visibly move along the Z-axis. | |

Frequent in the Wario Land spinoff series, with Wario Land 4 giving them the official designation of "Through-Floors".

N and its commercial remakes N+ and N++ have four varieties of directionally solid platforms. It's just one block, but with different cardinal orientations, resulting in platforms you can fall through from above, but not jump through from below and vice versa, and platforms you can go through from left to right, but not the other way around and vice versa. | |

Jump King manages an inversion of this trope, of course for the purposes of frustrating the player: sinking sand platforms is where Jump King will slowly sink, requiring the player to constantly jump a little bit to avoid falling through them and plummeting, losing progress. However, when colliding with the sinking sand from the sides or from below, Jump King will simply bounce away like from any proper solid platform. | |

Shantae: Although you can jump up through platforms in every game, there's no going back down except in Shantae: Half-Genie Hero, so they're easy one-way gates in Shantae (2002) and Shantae and the Seven Sirens. Shantae: Risky's Revenge: The jumping when ducking on a platform in Scuttle Town or the white Lilac Fields ones, phases Shantae through them, but not the ones in enemy areas like Squid Baron's labyrinth. |

There isn't a single solid ceiling in Magical Whip: Wizards of Phantasmal Forest. One of the game's levels is nothing but these platforms, stretched the whole width of the screen. One has to be careful not to accidentally jump up to a higher platform, as there is no way to go back down. | |

LittleBigPlanet tries to simulate these. There are three 2D planes you can be on (foreground, middle, and background), and jumping up above a platform on an adjacent plane automatically shifts you into that plane so you can land on it. You can also drop down from a platform by moving towards the foreground, but not towards the background. | |

Invisible coin blocks can only be revealed by hitting them from below — from any other side, you'll go straight through.

In Everybody Edits, one-way blocks are a category of block that act as solid on one side. The exact functionality depends on the game: In Everybody Edits Flash the sides are also solid, but not when moving the direction the block is facing. This game also features the One-Way pack, which has one-way blocks pointing in all four directions. In Everybody Edits Universe, one-way blocks can always be entered from the side, and they can all be rotated in four directions. |

Jet Set Willy (and its predecessor, Manic Miner) assigned each square on the screen one of four elemental types, colloquially referred to as "Air" (fall through from all directions), "Water" (can jump through from below and pass sideways through, but not travel down through; basically, this trope), "Earth" (impassable from all sides; can stand on, but not walk or jump through) and "Fire" (kills you on contact). And yes, water was often an instant killer, making water blocks technically "Fire" type... | |

Kirby games commonly feature platforms that are solid from above but you can jump through them from below. There are both can-be-dropped-down and cannot-be-dropped-down variations. Since you drop through them by just pressing Down, Kirby can't duck on thin platforms. | |

In Yoshi's Crafted World, this is justified. One-way platforms are depicted as "tabs" attached to surfaces that fold back when Yoshi is jumping up through them. However, they only fold in one direction, so Yoshi can't go back through them. | |

Rayman: In the first game, an entire room is made up of bouncy platforms that you can jump up through, and the goal is to get to the bottom. It's incredibly easy to take one misstep and bounce all the way to the top of the room. | |

In Dragon's Wake the player can jump up past wooden bridges, giant mushrooms, and the roofs of houses in order to land on them. | |

In Everybody Edits Flash the sides are also solid, but not when moving the direction the block is facing. This game also features the One-Way pack, which has one-way blocks pointing in all four directions. | |

Celeste has wooden platforms, which usually appear after screen transitions to block backtracking. Unlike just about all the other environment, they have no thickness so Madeline cannot hang/climb from sides of these wooden platforms. Also, clouds behave similarly, but combine it with bounce pad function too. | |

Mega Man games don't have a lot of them. However, certain stage-specific objects, like conveyor-powered small platforms in Sheep Man's stage in Mega Man 10, are not solid from below. | |

Metroid games invert this trope with "pitfall blocks" (also known as crumble blocks), which fall apart instantly when hit from above but block any attempts to climb back up. They're frequently used as one-way gates, with an added "gotcha!" factor. | |

In the first Bubble Bobble game, every platform tile is one. The possibilities of these platforms are commonly experimented with in the levels, too. Later Bubble Bobble games have these kinds of platforms as well. | |

You may build these in Terraria. You and most monsters may drop through them voluntarily, but Slimes and Demon Eyes can't. They're also good for grappling. | |

Environmental Station Alpha features both the regular kind (can jump through and stand on but not drop down) and the inverted kind (can fall through but not jump up through) in a few places. | |

The Super Smash Bros. series features a lot of these. With platforms that can be dropped through (and yes, it's actually shown as through in the game's 3D graphics), you can hold the analog stick down to drop straight through them without even landing on them. | |
