I got to level 25 of the worlds hardest game and gave up because I was frustrated

I Wanna Be The Guy has to be one of the funnest, and funniest, indie games I have played.
To be honest, if there was ever ANY way to actually pay for this game- I would regardless of the fact that I have beaten this game.

I love IWBTG, I've actually killed the first boss and heading onwards when I got the stamina. A friend of mine's even beaten it. It is pure awesome.

That's it! I'm gonna download I Wanna Be The Guy. You people make it sound so, how should I say this, "cool". (Dam! I couldn't think of anything better.

Syoban Action is a bitch at first, but after completing it a couple of times and memorizing the traps its a breeze, really.
