My longtime friend Bennett Foddy makes frustrating video games. You might have played QWOP, or GIRP. Somehow, making purposely frustrating video games about humans with malfunctioning legs landed him a job teaching game design at NYU. In other words, the universe conspired to inspire him to keep doing it. So we absolutely deserve his latest game, which is about climbing a massive mountain using only a sledgehammer while your entire lower body is confined in an iron cauldron full of water. Consider this game mandatory homework for the entire human race.

I made a video about this game. Look, it's a good video. I hope you watch it. I genuinely hope my mom watches it. I say a lot of weird stuff. The game is bonkers to look at. It's got chill music. I tried to write a script I could imagine Werner Herzog reading. Don't worry: I didn't read it in a Werner Herzog impression. That would have been terrible. That would have been harder (for me, and for you) than playing a Bennett Foddy game.
