Today was a great day. Then I played this game. Don't be fooled by the amazingly upbeat and enjoyable music -- if you turn your volume down low you can hear Edward Norton's voice warning you that this game is Marla Singer, and that it will ruin *everything* good in your day. What he should be telling you is do not click on the menu button after you've started your game, because it will reset you back to level one, and there are no progress passwords. Also, ads refresh every few minutes and ensure that you lag and die. Also, I dare you to beat this game and share your screenshot in the comments.
The picture above is from a screenshot of when I finally needed to take a break from playing this game after about an hour of repeated failure and self-esteem evisceration. You'll notice I only beat a third of the game before hitting my boiling point, and that 9 successes came at the price of over 400 defeats. But before you go and do the math to predict what kind of torture ratio this game involves, you should know that I only had around 150 deaths when I started level 10. And I'm still not done with level 10. This game is exponential evil.
Also, you might die in seven days. Good luck!

This one is at least very playable and appearing to be within our reach, which makes it even more frustrating to continually fail so much.
fail. if you had good timing you would have had the third post....
I should know, i killed the Gorgetron and everything.
I just decided to go to bed.
I had a addicting (not healthy) competition with my friend, we managed to beat the game in less than 40 deaths.
Although I guess I won't have any credibility since the lack of screenshots, since it happened over 1 year ago.
level 10 with 101 deaths.
Thats a night for me
The bacon and beer are starting to wear off so I may just end it here. So close but I stopped caring a while ago haha.
But I won't because it's one of the most repetetive games I've ever played.
:D
And yeah, now that I'm back at my computer again, I would totally love to pick it back up and try to beat it . . . but when I'm forced to start all over again . . . no thanks.
Glad to see everyone is participating and joining us in our miseries!
