Introduction

Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy is a game that's not for the faint of heart. It's a punishing climbing game, originally meant to be a tribute to Jazzuo's 2002 B-Game classic 'Sexy Hiking'. Developed with the intent to challenge, frustrate, and ultimately, to gratify, this game is suited for someone who's patient, perseverant and a glutton for punishment. The mechanics may sound simple; you move the hammer with your mouse. However, the game is anything but that. As you make your way atop the colossal mountain, the challenge continually escalates, testing your skills and patience at every turn.

Feature

  • You’re tasked with the monumental challenge of climbing a mountain using only a hammer and a pot. This is where the unique challenge lies – the balance between the gravitational pull and the striking force of the hammer.
  • The gameplay is enigmatic and engrossing - with practice, you can jump, swing, climb and even fly.
  • The game is filled with philosophical observations, adding depth and often serving as sarcastic commentary on your progress or lack thereof.
  • The game is punishing with losses, causing all your progress to be lost frequently. The more you ascend, the more devastating the losses become. However, perseverance can lead to great rewards and an exquisite sense of accomplishment.
