Hardcore Gamer?
This is 'I wanna Be The Guy'... an old skool game style game that offers nods and winks to many other old skool 2D platformers (including graphics and music... be it Castlevania, Mario or whatever)... then craps all over them with it's inherent lack of rules and unfair deaths.
It IS unfair, it IS mental and there are next to no instructions... it is made as such... but it IS possible to beat the game (people have done so and there are apparently youtube links to prove it).
I've downloaded the Demo so far (as the site recommends) and am going to try to feel my way though it...
Anyone else care to take up the challenge as well and post up progress here?
You WILL die... and you will die A LOT! But getting through a screen is SO satisfying!
To start you off....For the first level (took me a while to suss it) going DOWN is wrong.

Will anyone attempt to beat this game with me?
