Getting Over It

About Getting Over It

Getting Over It is a challenging physics-based climbing game created by Bennett Foddy and released in 2017. You play as Diogenes, a man trapped inside a cauldron who must climb an enormous mountain using nothing but a Yosemite hammer. Every movement relies on precision, momentum, and patience, making each successful climb feel incredibly rewarding. A single mistake can send you back down the mountain, turning every achievement into a true test of determination.

How to play

The controls are simple to comprehend. In the Getting Over It game, you move using the mouse. Your goal is to reach the pinnacle of this mountain, and your first hurdle is a massive dead tree. The "Pogo Pounce" is a maneuver that you must know in order to have a chance of surviving this game. Simply position the hammer end beneath you and push off the ground.

Tips for Climbing Higher

Practice making small, controlled mouse movements instead of large swings. Learning how to generate momentum with the hammer is the key to overcoming difficult obstacles. The Pogo technique is especially useful for reaching higher platforms and crossing large gaps. Stay calm after falling, as frustration often leads to rushed movements and more mistakes.
