You control a character, often just a simple sprite, moving through a side-scrolling environment. The main objective is to survive and progress by defeating enemies that come your way. You typically use a basic attack, maybe a projectile or a melee strike, to clear obstacles and foes. The pacing is fast; you have to react quickly to incoming threats, and the difficulty can spike without much warning. It feels like a test of reflexes, a rapid series of decisions made in the space of a few seconds.
