Are you ready to test your platforming prowess and nerves of steel? "I Wanna Be the Fangame" offers a heart-pounding journey through a world filled with perilous traps and challenging obstacles. As a dedicated fan of precision platformers, I delved into this homage to the genre with both excitement and trepidation, and what I discovered was an adrenaline-fueled experience that left me simultaneously frustrated and exhilarated.
At the heart of "I Wanna Be the Fangame" is its protagonist, the enigmatic "kid." Players step into the shoes of this intrepid adventurer as they navigate through a series of meticulously designed levels, each more devious than the last. From spinning saw blades to lethal spikes and everything in between, every step forward is a calculated risk, and every mistake is met with swift punishment.
One of the game's most defining features is its unrelenting difficulty. "I Wanna Be the Fangame" pulls no punches, offering a challenge that will test even the most seasoned platforming veterans. Yet, despite the frustration that inevitably accompanies repeated failures, there's an undeniable satisfaction in overcoming each obstacle. Each victory is hard-won, but oh so sweet.
Visually, the game embraces a retro aesthetic reminiscent of classic 2D platformers. While the graphics may not boast the latest in high-definition rendering, they perfectly capture the nostalgic charm of the genre. The environments are diverse and creatively crafted, providing a sense of immersion that keeps players engaged even as they face seemingly insurmountable odds.
However, it's the gameplay itself that truly shines in "I Wanna Be the Fangame." Tight controls are essential in any precision platformer, and this game delivers in spades. Responsive movement and precise jumping mechanics ensure that every death feels fair, motivating players to hone their skills and tackle each challenge with renewed determination.
Of course, no review of "I Wanna Be the Fangame" would be complete without mentioning its vibrant community. With a dedicated fanbase creating custom levels and mods, the game offers endless replayability for those who dare to dive deeper into its merciless world. From speedrunning competitions to collaborative level design projects, there's always something new to discover in this ever-evolving landscape.
In conclusion, "I Wanna Be the Fangame" is a must-play for fans of precision platformers looking for their next adrenaline fix. With its challenging gameplay, charming retro visuals, and thriving community, it's a title that continues to captivate players long after they've mastered its most punishing obstacles. Just remember: in this unforgiving world, every victory is earned, one death at a time.

One of the first fangames, though not quite the first as some people think ('I wanna save the Kids' & 'GunDude Game' predate, it among others). That being said, it gave its name to the genre of games that would follow, so points for that.
The game itself plays very similar in style and aesthetic to the original 'IWBTG', although slightly harder, with more secrets, and a broader variety of different bosses. The overall quality and difficulty scaling is less well handled than 'IWBTG' and the final ascent of the tower at the end is rage-inducing in its finickiness. It's just fine on its own merits, but its place in fangame history makes it a must try for people new to the community.

I was surprised to find out that this game is actually pretty fun, and I actually enjoyed it a lot more than my first experiences with the original Guy. Very charming; the physics are very different from what we are used to nowadays but they work perfectly fine for everything in this game. Recommended to try this classic.

A classic.
This is one of the first fangames ever made, and the creator, tijit, even made the first IWBT engine, and ALL engines now are based on his original one. I remember the GM7 version of it, back in 2010, it's what got me into game maker.
Of course the quality isn't going to as good as now, of course the engine is a bit outdated. But it's one of the first ones. It's like comparing Super Mario Bros. to Super Mario Galaxy, for the time, they're as good, both revolutionary and very fun to play.
This game has amazing music, atmosphere and it is even open, just like the original IWBTG, it has some amazing areas, and I really love the Pokémon boss battle, it's just really, really good!
So I give it a 9/10. A classic!

This fangame was my first proper fangame cleared after the og Guy. Definitely does not hold up nowadays but it still holds sentimental value to me.
