I Wanna be the Salt is a classic fangame that I personally never got to know back when it was fresh. Therefore, when I say this is a great game, you know there's no nostalgia to explain it.
The platforming is at best alright, the visuals are crap even by 2015 standards, the secrets are hidden in the classic esoteric fangame way, and the bosses themselves are fairly simplistic. All of this would suggest this game would not hold up, but that's honestly not true. There's something special about salt, some hidden magic that makes this a joy to play through. I wouldn't say anything about this game is spectacular (although the true final boss is really quite good, as is most every boss), but it all gels into one cohesive, juicy product that leaves the player satisfied.
Each stage is rather short, also featuring a hidden stage and secret item per stage. Therefore, you'll be fighting two bosses per stage, totaling to 14 boss fights in the game. These fights are the gameplay highlight, most of them being quite fun to fight and with a nice bit of challenge to not leave you catatonic from boredom. Again, the platforming isn't anything to write home about, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The true final boss is, as you can imagine, the highlight of the game, being a rather long, rather fun, and rather challenging way to end the game. I personally beat it on my first try, so I can't speak to how difficult it really is, but I was at the very least surprised to have beaten it so quickly.
I wholeheartedly recommend this absolute classic, if you haven't played it already. This is a shining example of a classic fangame.

Rating doesn't include extra.
Focused on the traps, this is a easy-ish fangame overall, but its bosses can be quite tough with their RNG attacks. Particularly the last one, which also happens to be the best boss in the game and the only reason why this game doesn't get a lower rating. The platforming isn't bad, but it just doesn't have anything really appealing. The only good thing in this game is the last boss, which can get quite intense with its attacks. That being said, the boss is just decent, nothing really worth it. Wouldn't recommend.

The difficulty level in this game increases too rapidly.
It's a pretty standard platformer. The six Stages are not notably challenging, but they are well placed for easy play, and the saves are appropriately spaced. The traps are basically uninteresting. Some stages have gimmicks. Boss requires you to avoid some difficult RNG, but it's not hard enough to bother with. Secret items are placed in places that are easy to find for me personally, and I had no trouble finding them.
But this is only up to the first ending. The game's Avoidance requires almost entirely reflex avoidance of very dense and fast barrage, and the song is about 6 minutes long, which also requires a high level of concentration. Frankly speaking, I would give it a difficulty rating of 28 if we consider only the first ending, but I would give it a rating of 63 if we consider only this voidance. (Although the average of 28 and 63 is used to give it a difficulty rating of 47.)
In addition to the secret items, there are 6 hidden bosses in the game, but finding their entrances is very difficult and they are all so cleverly hidden that it seems impossible to find them by yourself. In fact, I watched the Walkthrough for all but the hidden boss in Stage 4.
As of October 27, 2024, the average difficulty of the game is 38, but I think the difficulty of this game should be rated higher.

This is a very simple yet oddly well designed game. The platforming is really simple and pretty easy (with some traps laced throughout) but is designed in such a way that you feel accomplished and skilled for completing it. There are a bunch of bosses placed throughout the stages with intense attacks but last really short which I personally enjoy.
There are secrets placed throughout each stage but they are in such obscure locations that unless you are willing to check every block for a hidden passage I'd just consult an online guide. For collecting them though, you gain access to the secret boss which is what this game is mostly known for.
The secret boss wasn't that hard to me, I actually fluked it, but I can definitely imagine it getting annoying since it lasts quite a while and is filled with dense RNG-based attacks. I enjoyed it though.
This is a game I would recommend to a beginner, easy straightforward platforming and quick bosses that are satisfying to beat. The last bosses last a bit too long though. This game is nothing crazy, just short and simple.
