*Loud WAPOOSH noise* 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* Sensei! *JWOOP noise* If I make the sounds it helps me go quicker *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.

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 Oh oh man, oh, man You're a funny funny guy, mr. Bennett f- f- fucking funny guy . There we go I Want to cry okay, this mouse sensitivity is not working I feel like someone was murdered to make a game like this possible I Feel like it must be so okay, so i can get to *bunch of loud groaning* I fucking had that you hairy geranium It's why do you push when I make you pull *FOO FOO I've made it a point to myself that I'm not gonna rage at this game This is the worst game mankind has ever created. This is video game torture :( My issue is that I know how to do the things, but it's when you start It's when you start doing that that his hands can go either side So there's no definitive pattern that this can happen when I pull down to go that side. He can go the other way And then that happens Okay, that's what I need to do Yes, yes, that's not that's not a good position to be in okay, okay? Yes *Flings over rock* NOOOO! NOO! *cries in agony* *Muffled NOOO!* >:O You fuck don't you dare play that sweet sexy jazz at me you know I like it. you did that on purpose. I finally did it man. I Finally had it done. I hope you're bleeding from the fucking rectum [B] Oh no, it happened again. Keep on trying, don't let it get to you. [J] Who hurt you Bennett, who hurt you to make such a fucking game, Aah Ooh Aah No, that's not a good seal, that's not a good seal Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grave ooh. That's a good seal This is very bad, okay, I need to push up like a bra Full off don't fall off push Push like you're pregnant This thing that we call failure is not the falling down, but the staying down very panic oh Oh, Uh. This this game is garbage followed by a hint of pubic hair Rumplestiltskin hear some people probably got the controls of this game. Immediately as well, which is fucking That means they're aliens But I- I just I just can't get it I can't get it I- I mean that's the point it's supposed to be obtuse Okay, okay, okay? Oh gosh Oh into the cosmos. We're going there. That's good. That's actually what I wanted Because now you can do Okay, that's not good. That's not what I wanted Oh Bennet Oh, Bennet Fadi How do I oh shit? Yes yes Yes Fuck you. Could you just be regular human? For once yes. Yes, I'm back in the game find back who I already was This is not a good angle Dangle, okay. It's getting a little easier - oh Shit, oh, shit. That's bad. It's getting a little easier to figure out the directional stuff Okay, okay, this one is fucking awkward Cuz it's oh no shit Just for once in your life do something that your father's proud of Fucking JEEEEESUS CHRST You're witnessing me actually mad now Cuz that that's the part that fucks you up It's not they it's not the actual trying to grab this stuff after a while you kind of get how that works But it's when you grab it, and then you're trying to reorient yourself the game purposely is built to make you fuck up Because trying to reorient yourself pushes you back the other direction What fucking way just what way does life work? For me. I want to know what love is. I don't know what's worse the fact that that took me Forever to do or the fact that I'm just now making back up the progress I made ten minutes ago. Oh My god Get up there get up there tight spaces are not your friend be the sledgehammer be the sledge You know you can be Go grab it you had it. It's so fucking annoying sometimes grabbing stuff Actually pulls you and then other times, it's just Okay, maybe if I push myself Sometimes it grabs and pulls you and then other times it just slides along Why can't I just grab it like that wait Why can't I just grab it for the rock? Okay? Okay? Okay? Okay? You're up here. I don't know what what this means I? Don't know where we go from here mr.. Cauldron man It went from funny to rage-inducing and now it's back to funny This is ridiculous, I'm a nice happy positive person I Want good things for all people? except the developer of this game Fuck it fuck it fuck it in its ass Dying whale losses I can't get my head around this garbage Fuck off I hate this I fucking hate this hey guys and welcome back to getting over it with Bennett fatty It's a really great game It's my personal game of the year 2017. I I really like it and I I wish great things for people who play it Everybody all involved everybody involved everyone's a beautiful fucking bouncing child Everyone's just fantastic everything in life is going exactly the way I wanted to Why are you coming off the ground I'm not even pressing that part Okay, is there an easier way of doing this that I'm just nah. That's getting Don't fucking look at me like Oh Jack. I played this game, and I passed a no problem. No it gives a shit No, I kept your birthday party for a reason Jess What I fucking pulled down I Did that exactly I knew what I was doing that time for the fucking first time playing this game No stop rising off the ground. Okay, just pull yourself towards it There you go Okay, no no, this is already fine Bad News Bears. Why don't you fucking flick fast enough? Oh? Oh, it's like someone reached into my childhood and punched every good memory. I had Okay, okay. See it's fucking slippy sliding You know what this is a game I was looking forward to I was like oh that'll be a fun youtube series That'll bring the giggles in the laughs nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah Batman. There. You go there You're attaboy Okay, I don't know how the fuck to make you do this better Fucking Predicament just get the hammer around just get the fucking hammer up there you go Yes, yes, okay Easy does it I am pressing all the directions that I need to to actually get up here Okay, okay, okay, okay, just see there This would soon be made out of prefabricated objects Oh store in ass every inch of my ass that hasn't happened one because the objects in the stores are trashed I Don't mean they look bad or that they're badly made you're gladly me Okay Okay, I don't even know why I'm doing this why am I doing this? Why am I over time? We've poured more and more refuse into this vast digital landfill that we call the Internet In now vastly outnumbers in our ways the things that are fresh and untainted and unused When everything around us is cultural trash trash becomes the new medium the lingua franca of the digital age You can build culture out of trash, but only trash culture be games be movies Be music be movie philosophy Ok I have to say if they slide up this, but everything's fucking backwards now ok you know what I'm gonna leave this first episode here because I do not want to do something that I'm gonna regret I if I keep going now, I will commit a murder on camera and That's not something that any of us want because I pretty pretty nice don't want to commit murder Anyway good lord There are some parts of this that make you genuinely upset I mean, that's the point of the game and it makes you shake and I'm one of those people that if a game genuinely makes me angry if it makes me upset if It makes me feel in any sort of way negative I usually just like in anything in life, if if something makes me feel genuinely angry I like to just disassociate myself with it and just go away and come back to it after a while because Anger is not a very good emotion for me. I don't like it. I don't want it in my body Negativity I just want it all flushed out. I want to be happy positive person a 99% of the time I am but every now, and then a 1% comes along and it's like hey I want to feel like shit today, and you know what it's baskin that misery altogether It's kind of it's kind of therapeutic in a way You just get all the yelling out and you get all the frustration out and then after it's like hey You don't feel that bad. I actually feel ok young with me when I'm playing this game Yell with me any of the parts that get angry, or ie start yelling yell with me, and you too will feel great But for now, thank you guys so much for watching this episode if you liked it PUNCH that like button in the face like a BOSS and high fives all round See all you dude in the NEXT VIDEO This is not a safe space anymore you should not be in punching range
