Top of the mornin' to you laddies!

My name is Jacksepticeye, and welcome to a game called Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy.

A lot of you have probably seen this game

already because it's been doing the rounds as one of the

ragiest games that people have ever played, and rightly so because it looks ridiculous

And I wanted to play it when everyone else was playing it,

But apparently you needed to either get a code from the developer

Or you needed to get it in some humble-

Humble bundle that came out a while ago

And I didn't get either so it just finally came out on Steam so now

(claps) I get to play it for myself and I've been watching

Other people play it just laughing my ass off

so if you don't know what it is, a lot of you probably do, but it's from the guy who made QWOP and CLOP and

GIRP, did he make that one? I can't remember those really rage inducing games

QWOP is one where you have to press weird buttons to make the guy run down the track

And that pissed me off after a while so this is the- the same kind of deal.

But let's just get in and I'll show you.

You play as a dude in

*cue silence of confusion*

Whaat the fuck... Okay, I've never actually seen the beginning of the game

(chuckles)

You play as a dude in uh- in this- in a cauldron basically,

and you have to get across the environment by using this.

*hammer noises*

So you, can you can tell how annoying this is going to get oh my god.

And I've watched so many people do this

That I've always kind of been like, "How does the game control actually?"

"What- what way do the controls actually work?" and now I can definitely

understand how annoying it is. How the fuck?

How do I do this?

(chuckles)

Okay, and I've made it a point to myself that I'm not gonna rage at this game (Sure Jack, sure)

I'm gonna take it nice and calm. We're just gonna have fun with it

It's not gonna piss me off. If it pisses me off then I give up. Oh my god

Wait can I just do oh

This is so unintuitive

(Grunting noise)

Okay, so you can push yourself.

Push yourself to try harder. This controls FUCKIN' TERRIBLY! Yes!

Ah ha ha!

I got over it, hey take that Bennett Foddy! I got over- your shit! Okay.

Its gonna take m- Oh whoa what- what- what- It's gonna take me ages to get use to this...

I still don't know how the fuck this controls

(laughs)

Okay go like this

Go like go like this

Oh my god, what the fuck? Oh no!

[Bennett] More intense than starting over if you won an argument with a friend. [Jack] Yep, shut up Bennett [B] and then later discovered that they just returned to their original

[B] Starting over is harder than starting up

[B] If you're not ready for that, like if you've already had a bad day

[B] Then what you're about to go through might be too much. Feel free to go away and come back

[B] I'll be here

[J] Hmm, I know as meme as this game has gotten. [B]Thanks for coming with me on this trip

[B] I'll understand if you have to take a break at any point, just find a safe place to stop and quit the game.

[J] Solid advice [B] I'll save your progress always even your mistakes

*rave noises brought to you by: Sean*

[J] Wait you'll even save my mistakes? Come on, Bennett

Nice!

Okay so for any of you watching this, this might look like

It's not that hard, but good lord. The controls are all over the place *cue singing* this makes no sense

Uh oh, uh oh. Ohhh

I've done fucked it guys. I'VE DONE FUCKED IT. You're not- No. No, we're not getting mad. We're not getting mad

It's just a video game.

See that? See that it feels like I'm making the controls go backwards whoa

Oh no.. I want to get over

I want to get over it with Bennett. He told me that I should get over it with him, so

So

[J]Yeah baby! [B] this game is an homage to a free game that came out in 2002 titled sexy hiking [Jack] sexy hiking (chuckles) [B] the author of that game

Was Jazzuo, a mysterious Czech designer

[J] Okay, okay, I'm listenin to ya

Uh, Sorry

(Grunting noise)

Okay, okay. You kind of get a feel for the controls after a while.

I have to go into the fucking pipe oh no no no no no no no no Oh

Wrong direction! Wrong- oh, that's- that's the fucking ticket. That's what we're trying to do. That's what we're trying to do

Don't fall back down if you fall back down, I will eat a cheese sandwich

Wait, do I go into it or over it? NOOO. [B] in a certain way sexy hiking is the perfect embodiment of a B-game

[B] It's built almost entirely out of found and recycled parts, and it's one of the most unusual and unfriendly games of its time

[Jack] NOOOOOOO!

[B] In it, your task is simply to drag yourself, up a mountain with a hammer

[B] The act of climbing- [J] FUCKIN'

[B] - in the digital world or in real life, has a certain

[J] Nope. No. BENNETT.

[J] SHUT UP! [B] Here is constantly, unremittingly in danger of falling and losing everything.

Oh my God, oh my God!

Okay, I'm trying to relax

Let's get a bit of air going

(sighs)

Okay...

That's- Ohohoho.

This is going to fuckin' drive me INSANE.

(grunting sounds continue)

Okay, there we go. There we go.

(emphatic grunt)

Okay, okay, I know I know, okay

I know just as much as you do, dude, that you want to get up to the top of this cliff

I know how that f- feels!

(enormous grunt)

(sighs in frustration)

You bald, cauldron-wearing-

YES! Oh, you fuck.

(deep breathes)

(hysterically laughs)

I'm just holding on by the skin of my fucking ass!

Okay, okay. Launch yourself. Launch yourself! Yeah, did that fucking look like launching yourself, no!

[B] oof, you just a lot of progress. That's a deep frustration, a real punch in the gut [J] I know! I know it is

Shut up.

YEAH BOY!

*incomprehensible noises of anger from the Irish*

Okay, okay okay okay

Even when you try to take it slow

(vibrant grunt)

That's what I want to do up here, that's what I want to do up here, okay?

You're not facing the right direction though. Okay slow. Slow and steady wins the race

I don't know the fucking buttons well enough. There you go, there you go, oh yes!

*angry grunting*

NIC- I could have had that I could have had that I could have had it all

(references and sings "Rolling in the Deep")

Yes get up, get up, NOOOOO

I'm not angry. I'm not getting angry...NO!

NYAH NYAH NYAH

What are these sounds- NOHOHOH

*DARTH VADER!*

HOAOHAOOHAHA

I hate this game- this game is like grinding my teeth and sniffing it

*concentration noises*

I hope.... that you actually have no legs in that cauldron.. I hope that that's the reason!

I hope it's not just because you've decided not to use them. That's fine, dude. I love you. Dude. You're the best dude oh

Yes!

*thumps of disappointment*

Oh, Ah, Yeah, sexy baby, Oh~

*alien noise*

*JWOOP noise*

*angry grunts*

Stay. Stay fido, stay. Oh stay.

OH STAY!

*woowoowoo noise*

Okay, okay. We're here. We're here. We're here

*best deep breath 11/10 would live breathe again*

Take a deep breath, it's fine. It's fine. Everything is

Everybody's beautiful and everybody deserves a chance

There we go there we go there we go there we go and then

Fuck fuck

Okay, just just let me just land on the barrel just land on the barrel there you go. That's not a good land

That's not a good barrel land and I've seen some barrel lands in my time. That was shit. This is good

That's a good one mr.. Oh

[Bennett] Anyway when you start sexy hiking you're standing next to this dead tree that blocks the way to the entire rest of [Jack] Fuck you

[Bennett] It might take you an hour to get over it

*extreme angry noises*

*Irish scream*

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

Limits of your reach,[Jack]Bennett! I will find your house and strangle you by the power of

Sledgehammer oh I have the power. I was gonna say, but that's just the same same thing again. Okay, okay here we go

Here we go and whapoosh, top of the morning

My laddies oh fuck you're just gonna bounce yourself back out of here aren't you?

Aren't you aren't you not if Jack-a-boy has anything to say about it. There you go.

Just push, just shake rattle and roll. I said to shake rattle

Praise the Sun here we go. I am ready that fucking venti chai latte from Starbucks. That's gonna give you the power you need dude

(grunting noises)

Shhite

This is a very good with space to be in

Yes, my dude. Yes, further than we've ever been in life. Oh

No, yes, oh I could knock out now. Go backwards. Don't fucking fall and fail me now

Now sit in this chair

Shits all backwards

This is confusing now

Stay up there stay up. There you sexy cauldron, baby

There we go there. We go. It's just about learning how to walk backwards

You know I was when you were a baby and it took you like years to learn how to walk literal years

It's like that, but now you have to go backwards

Backwards baby backwards cauldron, baby. It's like Million Dollar, Baby

Except you're worth about three-fitty oh yes

No, grab the edge yeah

Turns out my brain does not want to work as fast as my hands do

Or my brain is working for yes! [Bennett] Sexy hiking your unyielding

And that makes [Jack] this is some sexy hiking.

[Bennett] But I'm not sure Jazzro

intended to make[Jack] just gonna sit here and listen because if you're talking while I'm talking I'm trying to play

[Bennett] The process of building a game about life, [Jack] that's cool. [Bennett] a funny thing happened to me as I was building this man [Jack] you died?

[Bennett] I'd have an idea for a new obstacle and build it test it and it would usually turn out to be unreasonably hard

[Jack] And the rest of it isn't? [Bennett] and I couldnt bring myself to make it easier

It already felt like my inability to get past the new obstacle was my fault as a player [Jack] the fuck you talking about?

Ever so gently

Attaboy [Bennett] when you're building a video game world you're building with ideas and that can be like working with quick-set cement

you mold your ideas into a certain shape that can be played with and

In the process of playing with them they begin to harden and set until they're immutable like rock

And at that point you can't change the world not without breaking it into pieces

[Jack] How do I get through this!

Bennet Foddy, I will break you into pieces several of them I

Know what I have to do have to get up there and Jimmy wedge myself in but I just can't do it Cap'n

Get up on that there you go attaboy

I'm gonna get up you all. There's oh. Oh there's lights. Oh, there's lights. No. That's not what I want to stick to

Yes

Oh, it's one of those things that you know it's gonna be hard, but then when you start doing it's so much harder

I might want to make fists. I want to start punching children

You see what you make me do Bennet funny. You're this is the new Netflix series of making a murderer

Just go just go if these fucking slopes

Okay grip the rock, grip the Dwayne Johnson! Um probably not gonna be a game that I finish

Just say

Just sayin now. Can you?

Why did you pick a sledge hammer to do this with?

literally anything else would have done better oh

My god climbing this with your fucking penis would have been would have been better than this do I have any sensitivity

Options, I need to change them

And it gets to a certain point where you just lose all your patience for this

Here we go here. We go you've done this part before you know it's possible. Just do what you did the first time
