  Is this the first foddian game? I remember as a kid getting to the hurdle but I don’t think I ever got beyond it

  I played this so much back in middle school about 15 years ago that I actually figured out how to do it. My strat still isn’t exactly easy, but with a little practice you’ll be able to actually beat the game as I’ve done before, even getting past that nasty surprise at 50m. I just broke it out for the first time in years and it was almost like riding a bike, no joke. Within a few minutes, I was almost hitting 15m. The key is to more or less always control two keys together; you’ll probably only pull off finer single-key adjustments when you actually get a feel for the controls. Getting a feel for the timing and how much to push the buttons is also important. Some other tips are not to allow your knees to get too high, try gradually completing strides in short stuttery presses to prevent flipping backwards, and momentum is key.

  To start, briefly tap W and O simultaneously. This is to get the character to put a foot out and lean over it, setting up the next stride.

  Then, a slightly longer press of Q and P simultaneously. The runner will extend his other foot much like real runner.

  After that, you’ll go back to W/O and begin cycling between that and Q/P. That’s pretty much all there is to it as far as the control scheme goes. That will at least have your runner looking a lot more coordinated than attempting to scoot across the ground or whatever.

    Foddy’s most recent game, Baby Steps, is getting good reviews. I’ve not played it myself, but it’s a 3D game in the same genre; you’re a very unfit basement-dwelling 30-something who gets teleported (in your onesie) to the wilderness, and you’re trying to manage your balance as you make your way to a mountain.

      Just watched a trailer for it. Might have to grab it. Looks like he teamed up with the Ape Out devs?? Nice.

  Watching someone play qwop for the first time is one of the finer joys in life. I’ve had so many belly laughs thanks to this game.

  I think I got to 40m, but it took ages.

  I would also love to point out that KLOP is the horse version and it’s really something.

  But my favorite Foddy game has always been GIRP, which is a climbing game that’ll test your keyboard :3

  Games Done Quick has a QWOP mini game that pops up between runs where chat controls the runner by typing their desired commands!

    Amazing. All of Games Done Quick is so impressive to me. How in the world do people figure out things like if you just propel yourself into this very specific part of a wall you get flung to the last level of the castle??

      There’s much more to GDQ than that, for the record! Of course it’s all about going fast, yes, but there are categories that don’t allow glitches, 100% runs that even with glitches showcase a lot of the game, and on the main events they have been including more and more showcase runs. My favourite this past AGDQ was the Super Mario 64 70 Star, 70 Person relay.

  I loved this one. His next one was called GIRP and I played it so much I started speedrunning it, back before twitch was a thing

  • GoOnASteamTrain@lemmy.ml ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Wait… GIRP is finishable?! I assumed it was infinitely generated because I’m terrible at it and didn’t get anywhere near the end! Aw I might play it at lunch tomorrow :)

      Yes it sure is! There is an asshole bird that tries to mess you up, and the last few handholds are a challenge, but there is a prize at the end :)

    I’m now older than both my parents were when I was born. The complaining about the lack of grandchildren has already started.

    Is not in is it? Society won’t let me stay up and play Xbox until midnight anymore, I’m expected to go to work in the morning.

    I, for one, embrace that I am no longer hip nor cool. Feels great.
