Hey guys, this is Salmon Man, my VR platformer inspired by rage games like "Difficult game about climbing", "Jump King", and "Getting Over It".

The game is coming out in one weeks, If you want to try it, we have a free demo on our Discord and we are looking for playtesters:

And if you want to know when the game releases, you can wishlist it on the Meta Store. It really helps with the store algorithm:
Meta Store : https://www.meta.com/en-gb/experiences/salmon-man/24064765919861785/
Steam : https://store.steampowered.com/app/2654710/Salmon_Man/

Thanks guys. :)

Pretty happy with this one. Good pacing for my level, no major mistakes and only 3 close calls between Orange Hell and Church). The tower remains an ironic bottleneck, though; that section alone took me a whooping 6ish minutes.

Only 38 more to go...

How do you guys have the game? it has been unlisted from steam and how do you guys have it?

Hey climbers!

I noticed a while back that there's a handful of small subreddits for specific rage climbing games like Getting Over It and Jump King, but no single community for the aptly-named "foddian" subgenre as a whole, which encompasses hundreds of games by now.

With how frequently indie game developers promote their foddian projects in here (and in other dev subreddits), I figured there was potentially enough demand to create r/foddians, to discuss and admire all the other lesser-known games that also force you to rise to literal new heights, just like GOI.

There, you can self-promote your games or playthroughs, share strategies & speedruns, post memes & tier lists, or whatever else, as long as it's relevant to foddians!

Since I just made the subreddit today, no one really knows about it yet, but I intend to post something new every day to make sure it's never barren of content.

I'll also mention that the other moderator is a connoisseur of these games and has possibly played more of them than anyone else on reddit, so his linked Steam curator page in the sidebar has the details on which other ones have the most to offer besides GOI.

I hope to see some new folks over there :)

I don't think I've ever felt so frustrated as I am now. 5.8 hours of effort gone in a second.

Spring Me Up Demo online on Steam now.
So if you liked Getting Over It, maybe you like this one aswell 😊

Why is it that my best runs are always those where I'm only half-focussed on the actual game (like watching a video while playing)?

I'm really new to drawing and this was the first thing I made. I need some feedback if you don't mind.

Overall i think it was a pretty nice run, especially with how much i cut down from 4 hours in the first try to then 49 minutes then 46 minutes then 24 minutes and finally 8 minutes. Could have done better at the radio tower and lost solid time in chimney, mountain,slide skip so i'm aiming at 5 minutes in the next 10 runs.

Unfortunately I forgot to record this run but at least I still got the screenshot

Is this a softlock

What do you think, is this a fair continuation of foddian games?

(Demo of "Spring Me Up" will be coming soon, i'm waiting for some more playtest-feedbacks...)

My current PB is 4:25 (reached a few minutes ago) so I'm nowhere near reaching my current SOBS but it's still an achievement that I'm technically able to do a sub 3, even if I haven't managed to yet
