Sports-puzzle?

Competitive fighter.

rhythm game, specially the original one for NES

'Punch-Out-like'

I'd say the NES one is a fighting game

FPS; hobby-grade coop campaign; genre-blended, multi-mode competitive e-sports; meta-growth, choice + epic punch-out heroes.

Puzzle or rythem, since the whole game is basically pattern recognition.

Soulslike. You battle against enemies that are stronger than you, but you must dodge correctly and strike at the right time to win

Wtf is this "puzzle" shit?? You mean like when an enemy has varied attacks that you need to learn so you can dodge at the right time? That's not a puzzle, that's how enemies work in most action games.

Single player fighting game.
