Look! Proof!

Yeah, yeah, I only completed it in practice mode, but that was hard enough, thank you very much. Chances of me ever doing it for real? As close to zero as makes no difference, I think. I should probably delete it from my iPhone now, before I start actually trying.

It is, as you might expect, very, very difficult. There’s a practice mode, which lets you place checkpoints, but to do things properly you need to get from the start of the game to the end without a single death.

The title is bait. With a name like that, you want to beat it.

My best score so far is twenty percent.

I doubt I’ll ever do much better.

It’s a brutal, repetitive game of trial and error and trying to force the timing of screen presses into your muscle memory. As such, it’s the kind of thing that many people don’t like at all… but it’s the kind of thing that I’ve enjoyed since the days of Green Beret on the ZX Spectrum.
