Feelings it meets

What it is

You play Diogenes, a man stuck in a metal cauldron who climbs a towering mountain of junk using only a hammer controlled by the mouse or touchscreen. There are no checkpoints: one slip can undo an hour of progress. Developer Bennett Foddy narrates throughout, offering reflections and quotations on failure, frustration and perseverance. Reaching the top ends the game.

Where to find it

Steam (Windows/macOS/Linux), App Store (iOS), Google Play (Android).
