I Wanna Be The Guy

“I Wanna Be The Guy: The Movie: The Game is a sardonic loveletter to the halcyon days of early American video gaming, packaged as a nail-rippingly difficult platform adventure. Players fill the role of The Kid, a youthful, vaguely Megaman-esque protagonist on a quest to become The Guy. This inscrutable plot, however, is just a vehicle for a wide variety of inventive, well-designed and frustrating jump-and-shoot challenges that pay homage to many of the games you loved as a child. The ever-fragile Kid explodes in a shower of red pixels at the slightest brush from the game’s many obstacles, from traditional spikes and bottomless pits to more unconventional killers, such as plantlife and puzzle pieces.” -From IWBTG website

A note from us…
I Wanna Be The Guy is simply… RIDICULOUS! It is the hardest game I have ever experienced, and also the funniest. Any gamer familiar with the classic Zelda, Kirby, Mega-Man, etc. will enjoy this (if, you can get far enough into it that is). I have found that the only way to even pass the early parts was to watch a professional do it, so here’s a handy youtube video for when you get stuck. Also a good preview of the game play. Try not to spoil it though! Half the fun is not knowing whats coming up!
