Getting Over It

About Getting Over It 

Getting Over It is a physics based game that puts your ability, patience and determination to the test as no other game does. All you have is a hammer and a will to climb a ridiculous mountain of unexplainable steepness, of who knows what stuff, metal slopes, trees, furniture, and floating rocks, on each swing you might win or lose.

Getting Over It is not the game about the power-ups and quick actions, as traditional platformers are. It's about control. Every inch of improvement comes as a triumph, and every failure is a lesson in physics and perseverance. Regardless of whether you play the original game created by Bennett Foddy or this cat-in-a-pot variation created by fans, there is one thing that is certain: you will be laughing, screaming and will push yourself to get one more try to complete the game.

How to Play Getting Over It

The only way to move a character (or in this version, a cute cat in a flower pot) is by tapping a hammer. It has no leaping button or running mechanic, all that depends on your skills in managing physics by using the mouse.

• Swing your hammer by moving your mouse.
• Hang on to surfaces in order to draw yourself.
• Use objects to propel forward.
• Keep your momentum going too fast you will go skipping down again.

The only thing to do is to perfect the dance of movement. Any climb is personal since no two climbing attempts are identical. The physics engine will make sure that accuracy and carefulness is never wasted.

Mastering the Hammer

Your hammer is your lifeline. It is the way you go up, and balance, and get back. Initially, it may be cumbersome but when you master how to use it with a sense of control, it becomes a part of your body. Here are a few quick tips:

1. Start slow. Rapid jerky movements are prone to slips.
2. Anchor your hammer. Identify points of rest and then take your next step.
3. Use momentum wisely. Light swings are able to boost you higher without losing control.
4. Stay calm. Falling is a part of the process- each of these tumbles teaches you to do a better one the next time.

Every movement is a little physics and concentration struggle. It is a feeling of accomplishment like what you get as you finally nail a hard part you have messed up over the years.
