Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy 2017
Developed by Bennett Foddy
- Platform, Simulator, Adventure, Indie
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". Climb up an enormous mountain with nothing but a hammer and a pot.
