I Wanna Be The Guy: Gaiden

Do you like dying in video games, but leaning more towards Kaizo Mario World than Sekiro? I Wanna Be The Guy is for you.

Or because you didn’t think a piranha plant would suddenly appear and chomp you up before entering the first stage. These occur on the overworld, by the way – the actual platforming stages are a whole other level of bullsh*tery.
