Not only has he given PewDiePie himself a headache, he's also starred in his own viral video. And it is that HammerMan: Get over this has been a sensation in the field of electronic entertainment. This is one of the most complicated skill video games of recent times, and the most frustrating. However, it has managed to carve out a niche between both Clash Royale and Fortnite. Now it has a version for Android phones of the original game for computers, Getting over it, with which to enjoy it anytime, anywhere.And on top of that, it's free.
It is a most strange game of skill, and it is that both the approach and the main character and the greater power of him are really rare. We are talking about a man who moves inside a vessel, without legs or wheels. Just a man in a jar with a big hammer and superhuman strength. With hammer movements, the man and his vessel take cover almost anywhere, climbing or avoiding obstacles by turning this utensil in a circular way. And it is that the physics of the game are more or less realistic (the protagonist barely articulates his elbows), allowing force and movement of the character as a whole thanks to levering the hammer on the ground.
The game is spread over only three levels, an introduction and a tutorialOf course, it is enough to tie us for hours to the mobile. And it is that, after the tutorial and the introduction, where you learn to overcome the first obstacles, the challenge that arises through the rest of the levels is almost impossible. We soon come across paths that require special skill to traverse, or corners that will take us hours to overcome until we develop the necessary technique. However, in these difficulties lies the fun of the title.
As for the gameplay, the title is really well adapted to Android. Simply use just one finger to move the hammer in HammerMan: Get over this with complete freedom and great comfort. A digital joystick lends itself to this on the right side of the screen, from here, with your thumb, you just have to slide your finger in a circular motion for the protagonist to reproduce the same movement on the screen. If there is an obstacle in the way, such as a barrel or the ground itself, the protagonist is leveraged and moves.Although it seems crazy, with some practice it is possible to develop a certain technique to control the movement of the character with more or less success. A point in favor is that, in exchange for calling , we can save our last position to continue from here in the next game.
From here, all that remains is to complete the levels, which take place in a somewhat crazy mapping full of cliffs, half-ruined buildings, wells and all kinds of ledges. The mission is to reach the end of the course, although the task can be almost impossible. The trial and error technique ends up being the best teacher to move with the hammer through these corners. The time you invest in mastering the technique depends only on you.
A viral game
HammerMan: Get over this (actually Getting over it) has stood out in recent weeks thanks to different video game youtubers who have decided to try their luck.This is the case of PewDiePie, with whom it is possible to have a laugh while taking cover as HammerMan. The game is difficult, but the sympathy of this youtuber helps make the tedium of repeating the same part of the mapping over and over again entertaining. The result is hilarious
The viral video of a youtuber who, surely, has achieved some kind of world record playing Getting over it, has not gone unnoticed either. And it is that, after about 12 hours of play, after reaching the highest point of one of the levels, his character ends up rushing until he reaches the beginning of the level. Without a doubt, the worst that can happen in this game. And this youtuber recorded it and shared it. His face is a true poem at the moment when he discovers that he has failed and all the time invested has been for nothing.
