Birdie's Review

Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy is a fascinating game designed as an homage to the Jazzuo's 2002 B-Game classic, 'Sexy Hiking'. It is a uniquely punishing climbing game specifically created to test the mettle of its players. The game combines and elevates extreme challenges with philosophical undertones, making it an eccentric but intriguing experience. It delves into the agony of endeavor as you grasp for every inch along the enormous mountain with only a hammer and pot as your company.


Experience the most simplistic gameplay ever; all you need to do is move the hammer with your mouse, and voila, you're in the game. With practice, you'll find yourself jumping, swinging, climbing and flying.,Embark on a journey up an enormous mountain where your only companions are a hammer and a pot.,The game squeezes philosophical observations in between gameplay, constantly making you question the effort at hand.,The game offers somewhere between 2 to infinity hours of agonizing gameplay depending on your capability. Yes, you lose all the progress constantly and feel the rush of enormous frustration.


I have honestly never experienced a game quite like Getting Over It. Its unique blend of punishment and reward, topped with philosophical musings really had my head spinning.,As an editor, I would highly recommend this game for those craving for a gaming experience that breaks away from the conventional norms and offers an immense challenge cloaked in simplicity.
