I'm going to be honest: I don't think I'll ever beat this game. I just downloaded it to actually feel the controls, which mind you, are actually really fun once you get the hang of it.
I see this as more of a friend than a videogame. it's company. Bennett Foddy's commentary is sometimes purposefully irritating, but most of the time I sense earnestness and comradery from his words, like the way he says he'll always save your progress. it really is just about the journey. you could play the same parts over and over again, just to have fun with the controls, and never beat it, and that's ok. like Foddy said in his playthrough in Kotaku: "riding the snake is the true ending of this game" (which I will never do because I'm ophidiophobic).

anyway, it's fun and funny and cool and iconic.
