About Overcome
Beat your inner demons without attacking them, in this extremely difficult platformer about how grief changes one's perception of the world. It is an expression of the developer's experience with cancer and heartbreak.

To tell the truth there isn’t a lot to say about Overcome. The game is a straight over the plate platformer. Although they definitely made it difficult. The shield is the most interesting mechanic because it gets upgrades as you play. Initially it only blocks shots, then it can reflect shots, and finally you get to use it as a parachute. You have to be careful using the shield though because getting hit will knock you back. Which can push you over an edge straight to your death. There’s one part in particular I have in mind where the platforms are tight and you need to wait for enemy pathing before you can land safely. Even then you can be knocked off easily. You see that shield icon in the lower left corner? Yeah that is meaningless. I thought there was going to be some mechanic associated but nope. It looks like it goes down when the shield gets hit but the limit is so high that you’ve already panicked and died long before it matters. Even taking multiple shots did nothing and it recharges so fast that it doesn’t matter. Really strange. The difficulty is why you would play though.

Man I am phone to my girlfriend.. so bored of this pause and the conversation. She just talk and talks. I think for five minutes I do not speak, I just lissten. You need to let women and girl talk. 8/8 apothecary3 found this helpful
I'm coming back to this game after forgetting about it and it truly is a beautiful game that deserves giving a good play.
Cute game with a nice little twist at the end. Some difficult sections, but overall nothing rage-inducing. Movement felt really good, which is crucial for platformers of this type. Enemies and the different combinations you encounter require you to use the mechanics in creative ways. Nice soundtrack Can definitely feel the developer's message and heart, ggs
Ye.
I enjoyed this game, but I wouldn't call it extremely difficult. This game is maybe medium-difficult. I don't know if maybe I just found it easy, but $10.99 is a high price for a game that only lasts an hour and a half. I can see in other users comments how long they spent on the game. Some people spent an hour in total game play and others spent longer than 24 hours. I still recommend this game for people who like a challenge, but it might not be as difficult as you would want it to be. You should look up some game play online to see if it's a good game to you.
