fun little roguelite platformer that serves as a great entry point into fangames. magic tower mode is also really fun to play through as the bosses are an enjoyable challenge to do hitless. no major complaints with the game overall.2 found this helpful
I wanna be the roguelike. Very fun game, good level designs, lots of precision spike levels, and the achievements were fun challenges to go for. Bosses are kind of RNG which sucks if you want to no hit them but it didn't really ruin much of my experience. Would highly recommend if you like IWBTG fangames or precision platformers. 9/10.1 found this helpful
how did this become one of my childhood games???
freaking MagicTower Mode
make i wanna be the cat free and i wanna be the creator pls
Although the price point to content ratio is fairly steep, this game ends up delivering very well on both fronts of being a cute IWBTG fangame and serving a challenge that's welcoming to the average enthusiast of precision platformers/I Wanna Be The Guy fangames. It's definitely easier than the games it's basing itself off from, but that's what makes it inviting. It's also absolutely entertaining to see references to bosses and characters from other IWBTG fangames, especially in 2023. It's like seeing an old friend (or perhaps an old enemy in this context).
