Steam App ID: 240720

A game I made For a certain kind of person  To hurt them\.   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\.   Listen as I make philosophical observations about the problem at hand\.   Between 2 and ∞ hours of agonizing gameplay, depending\. The median time to finish for my playtesters was 5 hours, but the mean was closer to ∞\.   Lose all your progress, over and over\.   Feel new types of frustration you didn't know you were capable of\.   Magical reward awaits hikers who reach the top\.   Epilepsy warning: contains some surprising elements\.
