Sexy Hiking

Why is the original game, Sexy Hiking, only mentioned at the end? Getting Over It is pure plagiarism and would not exist without Sexy Hiking. This should be mentioned somewhere on top of the article because it's important.

Tool of choice

Looking at the picture of the game that's clearly not "Yosemite hammer" (= rock climbing hammer) but a simple sledgehammer. So please, "Change Yosemite hammer to sledgehammer".

Game

Ending Secret

In the article, the secret ending is revealed to the reader.

"...at the conclusion, a message asks players if they are recording the gameplay. If the player indicates that they are not, the game provides access to a chatroom populated by other players who have recently completed the game."

I believe this violates the contractual obligation that players have once they've reached the top, that they are not to reveal what is up there. In order to see it they must select to agree to those terms and conditions. I believe that this article should acknowledge the secret but not reveal what it is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EdwardChamourian (talk • contribs) 00:59, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not censored. You should not read plot sections on Wikipedia is spoilers are a concern to you. -- ferret (talk) 01:28, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reference

Could someone fix the 9th reference, under the "Speedrunning" section I just added? I've never added a reference before and it seems to not function as I want it to. It should cite the GOI page of speedrun.com, https://www.speedrun.com/goiwbf. ASploopyPerson (talk) 23:01, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Getting Over It as an Art Game

Should this game be added to the list of art games? It certainly exists as more than (or less than) mere entertainment and contains meta-commentary on human struggle. Sitbear (talk) 01:12, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
