Remember back in the day when you first got your hands on an NES controller? How the games were exceedingly hard because you had to time your jumps perfectly, died in one attack, and couldn't save? You had to memorize the level if you wanted to make it through with no damage?

Well welcome to the game that makes those games seem like a piece of cake. Basically, in IWBTG, you play The Kid, who wants to be The Guy. It's similar to metroidvania in gameplay. My download hasn't finished for it yet, but I've heard great things about it. That is, if you consider smashed keyboards, aneurisms and high blood pressure great things. :O

Well Frameskip is when your computer has a lag, the game will jump over a few frames in order to keep constant game speed. Even if that does show as jumpy gameplay.

Slowmo doesnt skip frames, but instead makes the game seem slow motion for the duration of the laging.

I've heard of this. Saw a video and swore I would never touch the ****ing game. Too many hours would be lost to it and it's satanic difficulty level.

I saw someone play in in a class. It looked fun, but extremely aggravating.

I think the farthest I've gotten is beating 4 bosses.

Mike Tyson, Mecha Birdo, Zangief and Dracula.

I didn't even know you could put those 4 in a game and have the universe not explode.
