Our take on Climbing Over It with a Spear
The bounce point arrives when the spear meets stone: instead of gaining height, the character is fired backward. Players who dislike repeating lost progress may stop there, especially after a late fall erases much of an ascent.
What is Climbing Over It with a Spear?
Climb a surreal mountain by using a spear to gain height.
Ice provides places to plant the weapon, while striking stone sends the character backward. The game centers on repeated attempts: falls can happen near the beginning or after reaching a higher point, and the distance lost increases the stakes of each climb. Progress depends on controlling the spear and recovering from mistakes. The objective is to reach the summit, with falling forming a central part of the play cycle. The game is based on Getting Over It with Bennet Foddy.
