IWBTG - A very hard and funny game

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone has played a game called: I Wanna Be The Guy?
Its known for its hardness, randomness, and that its quite funny!
The player is called 'The Kid', and he wants to become 'The Guy'.
To do that, he must reach The Guys fortress, and defeat him.
There are a few bosses, here they are from first to last.

1 - Mike Tyson
2 - Mecha Birdo
3 - Dracula
4 - Kraidgief
5 - Bowser, Wart, and Wily (In the clown cart, appearing one by one)
6 - Mother Brain
7 - Devil Dragon
8 - The Father (The guy)

Anyone else played this?
Oh btw I'm trying to set a record, youngest to complete IWBTG.
So far I'm on the 4th room. xD

Which fourth room are you on, I wonder?

The one at the Start lol.

Room 1 - Central room which leads to stuff.
Room 2 - A room with apple trees that kill you.
Room 3 - A room with clouds that move and crush you into spikes.
Room 4 - A room near the night sky which leads up to Mike Tyson

Ah, that's the path I took. There are different paths, you know.

I tried the other path but I keep forgetting those invisible platforms, when you jump off the cliff.

I beat this game twice on Hard mode because I had no life.[/ego]

The game itself isn't really hard; it's just full of fake difficulty.

There are actually 3 paths from the first room.

Actually there's 4, but no one ever takes the path that leads to the right.

I recently tried to try this, but it keeps crashing as soon as I get to the save slots. I assume that's not part of the fabled overhardness?

If I play, I'll record myself reacting to the events.

I'm going to do the same thing with Dark Descent if I had it

Its funny as hell when you 'kill' The Guy.
It just plays happy little sucsess music, then a giant face just smashes down the window, RAAAAAAAAAAAWRRRRRR!
My cousin got to The Guy and said I could have a go. This is pretty much what I said through it all.

[Insert cutscene here]
Derp: Wait, The Guy is the father?
Derp: O mah gawd he's firing 'dem giant bullets at meeeee!
*Guy gets shoved out of the castle*
Derp: Yes! I did it! That was easier than Mike Tyson! (I THINK he's easy anyways.)

*Guy breaks through castle as giant monster*
Derp: wat
*Derp beats guy*
Guy: I will crush yo tiny bones!!!
Derp: Well, the kid is tiny.
*Derp beats The Guy again*
Guy: (The following sentence was removed)
Derp: ._.
*Derp falls into fire*
GAME OVER!

Somehow I doubt you actually fought the Guy. The battle before he goes all giant is NOT easy unless you've done it like a hundred times.

And you're pretty much saying that you beat the game in one day. If that's the case, you need to get a life.

Of course I didn't, I was just making myself feel better that I'd never come close.
