Of all the games that have been inspired by HB2, this comes the closest to feeling like it could be part of that world. For that reason, as I played this game I experienced an intense wave of grief. Grief for a lost time when I could spend days making strange and inscrutable works of art with my friends, and could drop them in a small puddle of a community, watching the ripples spread out. Now our community is more like an ocean -- deeper, vaster -- for better or worse. So things change, so things stay the same -- a game like this gets low ratings, and the maker wears their insecurities on their sleeve.

<i>Oblique Torment</i> is rough around the edges. But the fish boss and the 'Something is missing...' screens are oddly beautiful and promises, I think, of something greater. My overall reaction to this game is, obviously, personal -- but, I still think games like this have more to give than most other fangames. My main advice to the maker is this: exorcise HB2 from your system, but keep hold of the irreverance and creativity. Making fangames is tough work, and maybe people won't appreciate your work in the moment, but you will, hopefully, reach a point where you can look back and be proud of what you've made on your own terms. When you get there, it's worth more than any DelFruit review could ever say.

I Want, but it's actually great ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Seriously tho, concepts are awesome (town with dots and warfare breakthrough were honestly 10/10), one of kind experience, had a blast etc. One of the best sudoku i've ever played

P.S: Based on not using debug keys, because this game has debug keys???

Rating based on not using debug keys.

A fangame inspired by Hereditary Baldness 2 and Hereditary Baldness 2 Chapter 2. While there is clearly effort put into this game, it ultimately falls flat due to the obnoxiously long saves which in turn make some of the uninspired platforming more annoying than it would otherwise be. The Reveal Spoiler. The final boss has way too much HP which is probably intentional, but it still sucks. Reveal Spoiler

Overall, I'd say this game takes more of the bad from Hereditary Baldness than the good and I hope future projects focus more on the enjoyable design than presentation.

Cool hereditary baldness 2 inspired game. Ive played the sequel first and that game was quite an awful experience, however this game was a lot more fun. Theres plenty of really cool ideas here, but still tries too hard to be like HB2 (time travel is just cliche at this point). Theres some long saves that have no right to be that long, but they arent that bad except for traps at the end these saves. The bosses are all decent. Overall recommended

There are a few times in my gaming career that I have popped off. There are, admittedly, many where I have yelled in frustration. There are even a few where I have cried. IwbtOT is the only game I've played that's made me do it all. Thank you, MooMooArmageddon.

Edit: realized that my experience with the game was more worthwhile than the game itself as I put it at 10. It's not very good, but it was important to me at least.
