About This Game

REACH THE PEAK

Pull yourself up a treacherous mountain to reach the legendary Peak, where eternal glory and a wonderful gift awaits. This journey demands complete mastery in the legendary art of climbing.

Game includes one free expansion, a completely new, bigger adventure featuring a full second chapter that’s more brutal, more ambitious, and absolutely not easier.

Enjoy:

  • No deaths or violence.

    Just the constant fear of falling and losing all your progress. Perhaps that is worse…

  • Physics based climbing.

    Use only your mouse to control the arms of the climber. Gamepad supported.

  • Endless suffering.

    The world record is under 4 minutes. You, however, will be here for hours. Possibly forever.

But not:

  • Legs... You cannot use your legs for some reason.

FAILURE IS A TEACHER. EACH FALL IS A LESSON.

Embark on a philosophical journey, uncover lessons of ancient wisdom and who knows... perhaps even the meaning of life itself?

ETERNAL GLORY AWAITS YOU AT THE PEAK

Conquer each of the 7 uniquely designed areas that make up this one colossal mountain to receive the grand prize.

Expansion - Chapter 2:

A completely new, bigger adventure featuring a full second chapter that’s more brutal, more ambitious, and absolutely not easier. Adds 9 completely new zones and is included with the game.

“The ascent has become familiar… almost comforting. But alas, far below, within the endless water that binds earth to heaven, lies a glimmer of hope - and perhaps a deeper truth.”

Note from the developer:

This game is inspired by "Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy", itself a homage to an older game made by Jazzuo. I aimed to capture the magic of GOI's intensely difficult gameplay, which becomes comically easy once you master it.
