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!

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.

if it weren't for the bosses this would've been the best game-themed adventure game I've ever played

Wannafest 22 is currently my #2 favorite fangame. It’s insanely creative, with such a great variety of games — it really feels like a retro game marathon across the whole I Wanna Be The Guy universe.

There are so many cool childhood elements in here, and I love how it actually includes the signature mechanics of each main protagonist. The fact that they even carry over the HUD from the respective games is just genius.

And the 3D sections? Honestly super surprising — I didn’t expect them to work this well, but the execution is really impressive. Awesome game. I always have a great time coming back to it.
