Really enjoyed this game! like a kid with his toys! it was so fun, bosses and platforming i lovet it! nice music and visuals, i wish it never ended. Anyways i have a complain; the last stage (the ice one) i didnt like it, it feels like out of place or rushed, its a bit hard than the others stages, but not as fun. i wish it didnt exists because it gave me a bad taste at finishing the game, anyways i love this! would recommend to everyone.

I love these dreamy fangames from this creator! The only thing i didnt enjoyed was the first stage, i mean the small tiles, too uncomfortable and unfun, but i enjoyed the rest of the game, lovely visuals and good music, the "trippy" atmosphere was good! i liked the bosses, they were fun to play. also did the "extra" thing, which is some hard jumps, it was ok. i recommend this game for beginners! :)

For: I Wanna BE the Tempest
I beated this game finally (no secrets yet). This achievement and game is very important to me, heres some history:

So back in 2018 or so i found a video of the TAS of k3, i discovered i wanna fangames then, i always liked "hard games" mainly platformers, but these games were too hard for me, the difficulty curve was too unfriendly. I tried a lot of over 70 difficulty fangames (wanted to start from the hard stuff instead of choosing easy ones to start off), anayways i raged a lot, at that time i was a very impatient and my will and mood to complete these games died pretty quickly, anyways i was still interested in fangames, so i watched a lot of videos of other fangames, watched a lot! when i saw some interesting hard fangame i downlaoded it and tried (k2, k3, crimson, destination, rz, mmm, i was only interested in the hard stuff (what a hardheaded haha)), but i quit every game in a few minutes of playing, it seemed impossible to me, i asked myself: are these games only for very skillfull people? im that bad at playing games? am i weak? i have no determination? in fact, at that time i was very ill (and still but not that fucked up) with depression, so my self-steem was under the ground, also suffered from a lot of stress and anxiety, and clearly I was very very impatient and fell into despair easily, clearly i had a lot to work and improve on my person.

now back to the game, in 2021 i got my first notebook (always played with my sister's pc), that year i started studying programming, i was improving myself, that year i felt better, so i decided to challenge myself with a hard game (because i enjoy challengues! not only in games but in real life too), i decided it was time to complete a hard i wanna fangame, but there was a lot of options, i didnt wanted to beat the "hardest", but a game hard enough to keep me focused on completing it, i watched the k3 TAS of xwidget a lot, so i though why not to choose some game from the k3, it has a lot of screens from other games, and a screen that i was very curious about, was the tempest tower, that monocromatic colors in the spikes, the grey background which makes me think about the storm and rain (stuff that i love), i searched the game, and found a playtrough of it made by rollunk (which nows is called r@ll) i saw the game, it was very strange, i payed attention to the green, blue and then the tower screens made by Ooo, it looks so awful, so "visual challengue" yet i liked it, so i decided to beat this game.

i downloaded it and fucking started, i remember that the easy saves took me like 15-30 mins each (i was very bad! xD), but i keep playing, in a week i completed the stage 1 (created by ていく), it was hard, but not impossible how i used to see these games. this stage was ok. the first boss is fun and easy, i think it took me 1 or 2 hours.

then started to play stage 2 made by Ooo (オーオオ) it was brutal. i spended hours on the save that u have to backtrack, it took me like 2 hours or so, then i spended like 5 hours on the save that u have to do a small jump to not touch the ceiling, i just didnt know how to do it, but eventually beat it, also loved the memory save! and liked the visuals on the screen before the second boss, idk, that red background, the spikes and the tiles, i liked it. the second boss is awful, its just too unfun, very hard, its very uncomfortable to fight, but i managed to beat it, i think it took more than 3 hours. this stage was very hard for me, but satisfactory to beat and execute (excluding the boss), i like Ooo's platforming, very brutal, special and satisfactory when executing it right.

stage 3 (made by ていく): it was very easy and fun (compared to 2nd stage), i liked the gimmiks, got to the 3rd boss quickly, it was hard tho, i think it took me like +4 hours, but i remember enjoying it, was fun.

so at this point i was like: hey! its hard, but i can do it! it only takes time and patience! i was very hyped, i thought i had it, i thought in that year (2021) i would complete it! i was wrong.

stage 4 (Ooo): so heres where the difficulty curve starts to hit you in the face, like a wall, this stage was harsh, the platforming was very painful. it starts off with the red screens, the timing one was hard but very fun to me! then the green screen comes, at the end of it, before getting to the blue screen, theres a very hard jump there, it took me 6 hours to figure out how the heck i was supposed to do it. then the blue screen comes, the first save was very harsh as well, it took me like 4 hours, then the second save is easy. then the fourth boss. this is were i noticed i was wrong, i wouldnt finish tempest in that year. the fouth boss is pure RNG, and i never had any experience with hard rng bosses, that shitty apple RGB boss only lasts like 55 seconds, and boy oh boy, it took me more than fucking 50 hours to beat it (started on november of 2021 and completed and beated it on september of 2023) it was just too much, i didnt have the experience nor the skill to read RNG attacks and react properly, i played like 20 hours, and then started to take breaks, it felt impossible to beat, and sometimes returned to keep trying, the hours passed and passed, but no success. in 2022, i tried very hard, played like 20 hours more, but i was very unmotivated, i died a lot on the last attack, once u kill the apple and collect the item, theres a random attack, is harsh as the fucking reality; cold, indifferent and doesnt care about your feelings and destroying your hopes, not gonna lie, i got very nervous once i got to this last attack, and panicked a lot, died like 14 times and always died because of rushing, getting nervous or doing stupid jumps who ended in death.

this year 2023 i keep improving myself, now i dont need meds to keep my mood stable also dont need pills to sleep (i defeated insomnia and re-learned how to sleep again), improved my self-steem and a lot of things as well. so in september i decided that i cant leave this game unfinished, i had to finish what i started. surprisingly i was very good and consistent with the boss (sometimes taking a break is the best thing you can do , i mean, giving up, but not forever, momentarily, to gather strenght and try again in the future) i got to the last attack a lot of times and very
consistently (i learned a lot of dodging and improved reflexes by playiang this damn RGB apple).
on 29 september of this year i beated it, after +50 hours, my reaction? a loud: yes! but not that impactful as i thought it would be to beat the boss, this was in fact because i died so many times of rng and bad decicions that i felt like i had to beat the boss in like 20 hours instead of +50, but keeped making mistakes and not learning from them, thats why it took me so long.

anyways, once i beated this boss i knew this year i would finish the game, this boss is the hardest thing on the games for sure (obviusly made by Ooo)

stage 5: very easy stage, i liked it a lot! it was fun, specially the blue screens. got to the boss quickly, i thought like: this shitty boss is gonna be easy, i beated the fourth boss now im god, but nope, it took me over 14 hours. it was hard, mainly because you have too little tiles to move, so your movement is very limited and the hitbox (the mouth is his weak point, is hard to hit sometimes). also the attacks are RNG based, and sometimes you get walled, and the third phase you have random apples which sometimes it insta kill you (some of it have very high speed and if u are unlucky they go right where your character is making almost a garanteed death unless your reflexes are on point.) i beated the dragon yesterday, it was very unfun and frustratiang to play, really hated it. and after that went for the final stage: the tower.

stage 6 (Ooo): i was finally here. finally playing the screen i saw in k3. the needly wasnt as hard as i expected, i did the first 3 saves of the tower very fast, then today completed the other 2 saves. it was hard and not very fun to do, i have to admit it. (BUT loved the monocromatic colors and desing!!! =) , but the music feels very bad when you play it, like it sounds like an annoying sound rather than actual music haha.
then you have the screen where you have to infinite jump and dodge spikes, it was ok, did it fast.
then you came to the last section or whatever it is of the stage 6, visually the design is atrocious, it has a lot of random objects that doesnt have anything to do with the tower aesthetic, there are some really hard jumps there. but managed to beat it. then you have the last screen were you are chased by a grey apple, it was fun i guess. and then i completed it.

i finished this damn game finally, maybe in the future i will do the secrets that i didt completed, but for now, i win, it took me over 2 years and 94 hours 38 mins and 54 secs. i did it, finally, and the thing is, i learned a lot about patience, determination and being optimistic by playing hard games, like really, now i tend to be more patient and can handle situations without panicking or falling in dispair, also learned about long term gratification!!! i remember a quote "if you pay attention enough, almost everything can be your teacher", you can learn almost from everything, and certainly video games are no exception. even if maybe, these hard japanese games dont have any meaning than just being harsh and unfair, you can learn and give to it your own meaning!!! yeah it can be strange learning about an amateur game, but in fact, u can learn from almost everything, the key is in the little details.

the insteresting thing, is that, i dont feel nothing really by completing it, maybe because we always enjoy the journey more than the destination. the magic of completing goals is in the process, were you change as a person. oh, this year, i started studying philosophy xD, it is very clear right?.

Anyways now about the rathing, althoug the game is old, and a lot of people think these old games are garbage or so, i dont agree, i really like the simple aesthetics and the "generic traps", altough Ooo's platforming is very punishing, i like it, probably will complete all of his games, even if they are considered "bad", i love his platforming design. so i will give this a rathing of 8/10 even if i didnt enjoyed it too much, even if it wasnt that FUN, i mean, not every game should be "fun", games like this i think is fine to not be fun, you play these games to have a challengue right? anyways, i wanna give support to these old games. IM FREE FROM THIS THING! and finally, i can say; Im The Tempest.
