I wanna be the Fangame (Final, patched)
Mar 9, 2010 Full Version 14 commentsThis is the FINAL release of I wanna be the Fangame. (Minus possible future patches) Good luck!
A fangame based on the ever-masochistic "I Wanna Be The Guy" by Kayin, I wanna be the Fangame delivers a slew of new and interesting puzzles, challenges and bosses for players to test their skill and patience against. Described by one playtester as being "Better than an unlimited supply of Turkish Delight and Porno mags!", I Wanna Be The Fangame (IWBTFG) will challenge you more than any other game you've ever played!

Hey guys, the preceding list is very special. It is the list of the first six people to complete I wanna be the Fangame! with all secret items. They win an early beta of I wanna Time Travel - a failed little experiment I created a year or so ago.. it's basically chronotron crossed with I wanna be the Guy! (if you've never played chronotron google it, it's a lot of fun)
For those of you who aren't on that list, here's a small taste of what those awesome people could be playing right now:
XOXOXO

This is the FINAL release of I wanna be the Fangame. (Minus possible future patches) Good luck!
So we decided to take a week's break from IWBTFG and enter the Robosquid Week long Game Development Competition #2 (Robosquid.com). Robosquid is a great...
The third (and final) Beta release of IWBTFG before full release. This was completed some time ago (I.E: Lots of development has been done since this...
The second beta version of IWBTFG, including 5 bosses! Note: Keep in mind that this is still a BETA version, and there's plenty of stuff to add fix and...
This game is the hardest substance known to man.
Orann are you the one who makes these games? If you are, I hate you as much as I like you. Man these games give me nightmares :D Great job.
I'm not a good player myself, I usually play story driven games and I play them on easy but if possible puzzles on hard. In I wanna be the guy, game is a puzzle itself. This is great man, even I am trying to finish this game. So keep up the good work, you'll have lots of supporters for sure.
Also Masochistic Mario Brothers is good idea. I'll wait for it.
Cheers.
cheers.
Yes I am!
Well, actually, I'm not the creator. The guy that made this game to begin with, and who's done a major majority of the content is a good friend of mine, Tijit. I'm a level designer, lead tester and general fixer-upper. Aside from designing screens, I'm responsible for playing with the difficulty and challenges in the levels (Tijit has a habbit of making frames too hard; He plays IWBTG on impossible for god's sake!), thinking up puzzles, aesthetics etc.
It's great to see support for the game. Thanks!
I look foward to hearing what you think of the final version.
That depends on what game you're talking about. The original I Wanna Be The Guy was released a long time ago, yes, but this game is still in development as a completely new fan-made game using the same physics engine and design principals. As for the Beta V.2, that was "released" a while ago too, in that it was posted on a few forums for people that asked to see it in development. Since then it's gotten out a bit (Over 10,000 downloads at last look), which we're really happy about.
So, this game hasn't been released yet, but the beta was a while ago, and the original IWBTG was ages ago.
Oh okay cool. Would be cool if had say Super Smash Bros stuff or Monkey Island stuff there :)
Those are both great ideas! One of my first ideas for a boss in the game was to put the player in the middle of a SSBB match, where you'd have to come out on top. I drew up some pretty nifty plans for it, but ended up having to ditch it, just like almost every other idea we've had involving 3D games. The problem is, translating them to 2D is just fighting a loosing battle. Not only do you loose a dimension to play with which messes up the mechanics of it all (SSBB doesnt really have this problem), but it also means you have to re-sprite everything to fit in with the art style. It's painful to throw away cool ideas you have, but if we went all out with everything we came up with, this would never get finished!
Got another idea. The guy is flying through the Death Star trench and has to dodge TIE Fighters and use X-Wings to sit on top. Then at the end of the trench, your dude has to jump into the exaust pipe which when he goes down , the whole thing explodes and you go to another level :)
Hah, sounds cool. Thanks for the ideas, but we have pretty much all the frames for the game already planned out and constructed. At this point a majority of the work is going into testing, tweaking and polising what we already have.
Oh okay. Hopefully after once released you could add more stuff to it :)
Hopefully! Depending on how it goes, we might find time to release a special version with a bunch of extra content and "deleted scenes", but It all depends on how much time we have.
