I DON'T KNOW EITHER DON'T ASK ME

I just remembered this game a few minutes ago and was wondering: is I Wanna Be The Guy still around? Has PewDiePie graced his ugly mug in it's upper right-hand corner? Are there any Let's Plays still up from that time? I know a lot of people uploaded to Blip and other lovely sites back in those days. Have you guys played it? Lately?

I love when platformers replace difficulty via execution with difficulty via traps so instead of having to keep playing a level over and over because you suck its because you haven't died to all the things you need to die to yet.

its you vs the dev, you are trying to outthink the traps cuz you know they are there, so you second guess your actions a lot, its cool

naw I just make weird mouth noises and bobble the controller around in my hands for a while. When something has me frustrated enough that im just rushing inputs and screwing up instead of being able to focus on executing I go for a run or do some work on my punching bag.

Usually I can keep myself from getting there by just taking a step back and laughing at my execution mistakes, generally while listening to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsTmbraWcns

imps what is your favorite 'super hard' platformer, traps or otherwise?

IWBTG is good but buggy as hell. i liked Super Meat Boy's level design but prefer the controls of N. Dustforce is the king of the genre imo but we've already gushed a bunch over it here.

i thought They Bleed Pixels was boring and too sparse. Electronic Super Joy was cool though.

This would be difficult considering it's download-only and there are no physical copies
