Getting Over It With Bennett
Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy, is a video game based on the book Getting Over It by Bennett Foddy. The game has been released on both the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Wii U, on both versions. Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy will let players take control of an average college student who must learn to overcome his insecurities by overcoming challenges. The game was developed by Bennett Foddy, who is an expert writer. The game will let players experience how to deal with overcoming personal insecurities throughout his college career.
There are different characters that players can control through this particular game, and players have various levels in which they can progress through. Getting Over It with Bennett uses a variety of artistic assets to depict certain aspects of life, like navigating through college life, dealing with personal emotions, handling competition, and even how to get over a difficult breakup. The video game is certainly not a perfect simulation of getting over a breakup, but it does provide a great deal of insight into what it’s like to experience these things.
The game uses a pre-made level system and a “mod” or modification program that allows players to craft their own custom courses and challenge other players for scores. There are many things that can be altered about the course that will affect player scores, including the color of the sky and the kind of foliage that is on the ground. However, the real life representation of getting through a challenge is the speed at which a player completes the course. A player is able to increase his score by getting the least amount of obstacles to cross while moving quickly through each area of gameplay.
A lot of the courses in Getting Over It are crafted in a similar way. The focus is on making the gameplay as natural as possible, without compromising the difficulty. For example, one course in the game has a series of multiple jumping jacks placed strategically in a maze-like setting. Players must use a special mushroom to jump from one platform to the next, avoiding obstacles along the way and avoiding the slopes as they go.
The reason behind the unusual placement of the jacks is to represent the difficulty of getting from one platform to another. The objective in Getting Over It is to reach the end of the mountain with a score higher than your previous efforts. A typical mushroom will allow players to climb a little faster horizontally, but there is no vertical movement in the game. In order to move faster vertically, you will need to find and activate some colorful ledges along the path. Each time you successfully climb a ledge, you will earn a point.
Some of these ledges only appear when you are moving in a certain kind of way, such as rolling over them or climbing them. When you find an eligible ledge that will allow you to climb up to it without using any powerups, you are allowed a brief period of time to try to get the highest score possible. The game is controlled by the same rudimentary mechanics that made the original Oregon game so enjoyable in the first place. Collect items along your path to restore health, increase your score, or lower your opponents’ scores with the various weapons you find along your journey. Getting Over It with Bennett involves much more than a simple time management game, however.
One of the biggest influences on Getting Over It’s gameplay is the level of subtle humor found within the game design. Much of the humor derives from the situation and situations that Bennett finds himself in, allowing for a far more believable game than its competitors on the marketplace. Getting Over It with Bennett also provides a rare chance for a character interview, as it allows a developer to talk about the design philosophy behind the creation of the game and give perspective to the work that went into the creation of its characters and levels. Getting Over It with Bennett is rare among games for its voiceover performances, as the character’s expressions and mannerisms are quite endearing.
Getting Over It with Bennett is the eighth game in the Oregon series, and the tenth installment in the main series in general. Like most of the entries in the Oregon series, Getting Over It with Bennett is an arcade style game where the objective is to complete all levels and earn points for your performance. This time around, however, you have to deal with an evil witch who is after the three gems needed to unlock a magical cave known as the Cauldron of Doom. The cave is guarded by skeletal soldiers and a giant spider who, if you manage to shoot him, will drop one of the three gems you so desperately need. Your only hope in getting over the obstacle without falling to the bottom of the pit is to activate the fire surrounding the cave entrance in order to smolder the enemy soldiers and allow yourself to slip out of their grasp.
