I Wanna Be The Guy (the hardest video game ever?)
 
I'm reminded of that Japanese one that Adam posted a while ago. Anyway, check this out:

It's ridiculous, and downloadable.

noisereductions 01.15.2009 01:17 PM

is it PC only, or is it meant to be played on a certain system's emulators?

Glice 01.15.2009 01:26 PM

In-window jobby - no mames or faff.

Glice 01.15.2009 01:27 PM

Also, the demo is quite a small download (2 minutes or less on my connection). Give it a bash, I got bored after 15 minutes or so, but I don't have any patience for video games any more.

I dnt play video games on my computer. Ever. Oh well. I figured it was a hacked NES rom or something.

this is the most unfair game ever

Haha thanks for this, looks brilliant.

The hardest game ever is some space shooting game for the PC. Can't remember the name of it, but Next Generation Magazine (remember them?!) couldn't get past the first level and actually flew to the creators' offices to see if ANYONE there could get past the first level, and only one person could or something.

noisereductions 01.15.2009 02:37 PM

hahaha awesome.

I just played the demo version for a bit. Can't get past the first level. Way too hard for me. A can clock Space Invaders at the arcade though.

The Atari 7800 version of Impossible Mission is both the hardest and most unfair game - it's literally impossible to complete.

Yes it is. Because of a bug in the programming, there is no way to beat it.

atsonicpark 01.15.2009 03:33 PM

So, it's literally an impossible mission?

noisereductions 01.15.2009 04:01 PM

That's the ironic part. Yeah.

_slavo_ 01.15.2009 04:04 PM

i coudln't get past the first screen. I've always fallen to the spiked hole and got killed. frustrating.

Glice 01.15.2009 04:20 PM

Slavo - go up, down's a red herring.

_slavo_ 01.15.2009 04:24 PM

where up? Up where it all starts? it's impossible to jump up that high.


(looking at this couple of sentences without the proper context, they seem very metaphysical)

Glice 01.15.2009 04:44 PM

Press jump twice - you can double-jump.

demonrail666 01.15.2009 06:13 PM

yeah, but when i try that the spikes on the level above me just kill me immediately. Why doesn't this fucker have a Smart Bomb?

Glice 01.16.2009 12:25 PM

Right - When you first drop into the first screen, press jump twice to get up to the screen above. Then avoid some apples, and do some jumping on some clouds and avoid some spikes and shit.
