Update: Version 1.2 is now available, with several balance changes, notably to the final boss. Be sure to update!

After the events of I Wanna Be The Guy, The Kid is invited to a game show hosted by an imposing figure! Fight your way through several game challenges to compete for a high score. Do you have what it takes to master these games and win the grand prize?

Developed by Cherry Treehouse for Fangame Marathon 2022's Blind Adventure event, WannaFest 22 is a fast-paced rollercoaster through hidden gaming gems of the past!

Features:

-> Several stages faithfully based on cult classic games
-> Fast-paced gameplay focused on variety and scoring
-> Unique and exciting boss encounters
-> Crisp, colorful graphics and catchy music
-> Reprising voice actors from the original I Wanna Be The Guy
-> Plenty of achievements and extras
-> Full controller support
-> English and Japanese (subtitles) support

This was a heavy collaborative effort, no single stage was developed by only one person.

We worked really hard on this, we hope you enjoy it!

Has some great moments (I liked Klonoa the most, and Sonic the least), and I love the variety.

I just got around to playing this game, due to hearing great things about it, and after playing through it, I can definitely see where it was coming from. I do have a few issues with the game, but first I'll talk about what I did like.

The visuals and sound design are absolutely phenomenal. Every second of this game was great to look at and great to listen to. Even when I died (which was more times than I'd like to admit), the game over screen had a fun tune to hear.

The stages were, for the most part, very enjoyable to me. While some games I feel were extremely similar to their originals, I feel that they added a good bit of fangame charm to them, which I really enjoyed. Some people say that the Monkey Ball State was too long, but it was probably my favorite stage out of them all, it was really fun to play.

Not all stages made me feel this way, however. The Sonic stage in particular was not very fun in my opinion, it just didn't feel similar to Sonic much and the platforming felt very off to me. The Ganbare Goemon 2 stage wasn't my favorite but the boss redeemed it for me, so I'll give it a bit of a pass.

The part that really felt the worst to me though was the Gunstar stage. Gunstar Heroes is one of my top 5 favorite games of all time and I really wanted to see something cool get done with it, but I was disappointed. It was just stage 4 of Gunstar, with less of the features that made Gunstar fun in the first place, e.g. holding multiple weapons and the kick/throw, along with the minibosses. I know it would've maybe been difficult learning all the controls for some people, but I can't help but feel a bit sad about it. Despite this, I did like that the enemy movement was incredibly faithful to the original, which definitely surprised me.


I don't hate this game, far from it. It was an overall positive experience, however the hype for it really set the bar a bit higher than what I actually experienced.

Not my thing but I'm glad people love this game. I wish everything that wasn't for me was as well crafted as this. It makes me glad there are so many people that care about fangames during a time where I haven't been able to enjoy them as much. Much love to the team.
