Summary

Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy is a punishing climbing game, a homage to Jazzuo's 2002 B-Game classic 'Sexy Hiking'. You move the hammer with the mouse, and that's all there is. With practice, you'll be able to jump, swing, climb and fly. Great mysteries and a wonderful reward await the master hikers who reach the top of the mountain. To quote Jazzuo himself: "The hiking action is very similar to way you would do it in real life, remember that and you will do well".

    Getting Over It is an incredibly frustrating and difficult game, but that is exactly what makes it work. The game is clearly designed to make you angry and test your patience, and after finally completing it, you get a huge sense of satisfaction that makes all the frustration feel worth it. The controls are simple but extremely difficult to master, and even a small mistake can completely ruin your progress. I spent a lot of time getting frustrated while playing it, but I don’t really see that as a negative, because it’s clearly intentional. It’s a simple concept executed extremely well, and reaching the end genuinely feels like an achievement. Definitely not a game for everyone, but if you enjoy challenging yourself and overcoming frustrating obstacles, it’s a very satisfying experience.
