This is a faithful remaster of the original I Wanna Be The Guy, aiming to balance the spirit of the original game with the desire for consistent physics like the fangames that came after while fixing some of the jank.
This was created using Yuuutu engine in Game Maker 8.2, and has been prepatched with gm8x_fix (https://github.com/skyfloogle/gm8x_fix). The source code has been included (GM 8.2).
→ New Features:
Fangame physics
Perfect quality re-recorded audio
Cleaned up sprite scaling
Controller support
Button remapping
Separate volume sliders
Smooth 50FPS and Vsync option
Fullscreen with crisp pixel filtering
200% scaling window mode for compatible displays
800x600 fullscreen mode for compatible displays
Optional restarting music
Reduced input lag and no background input
Dipswitches to customize your experience
Unlockable content
→ Removed features:
Unintended crashing
We hope you enjoy this remaster!

I didn't realize how good this game was ;-;. lots of variety in its gameplay, really fun exploration you don't see in a whole lot of fangames, its just pretty darn good. It has issues, such as the bosses being VERY mashing heavy but no issues that really drag down the game enough to significantly impact my enjoyment.
If you haven't played it you likely should.

Rating based on medium difficulty with a blind* playthrough, this rating also ignores the importance of this game and is only judging the game as a whole without accounting for all the fangames and so on..
(rating also is not judging if the remaster did a good job- it certainly did, this is moreso talking about the original on the remaster)
I do quite like this game, and it holds up pretty well, especially in the traps for such an old game, i'd assume the humor was also good for it's time, theres nothing i have said that has not been already mentioned, but my issues with the game seem somewhat unique.
My main dislike is with some things being just too vague, as mentioned, i went into this blind, so after reaching the kid's gate and having to teleport back i got "stuck" in a loop of re-doing already done areas in an attempt to find where to go next, my first idea was to go down in s1, i did, and couldn't figure out what to do until reaching the right side fake wall, and went through that area again, what i'm saying here is that finding the room of divine transportation without already knowing it is such a pain.. there's nothing telling you that this random wall is fake in the middle of 2 saves, i had a similar issue with mike tyson's fight at the start of the game aswell because i didn't want to hug the sides since it felt scummy but the fight seems so weird without using that. My next major complaint is spam.. In the game's defense it is so old and i don't blame them at all but the metroid area was just insanity and i wish more fights were like dracula instead of standing in one spot (or learning to move to other spots- like how the dragon fight in the final chase has no indication that you start to go left until it's already too late) and spamming z, even the guy had this issue, move slightly, spam z, move again, win.
My review makes it seem like i dislike this game more then like it but i don't, the platforming was actually quite good considering it's what started it all though when playing it completely blind there are a few spots where not having knowledge of the game before playing definitely detriments the experience.
*blind does not account for knowing the movement and physics and all that etc, before playing this i had only seen the first 2 screens & the final boss, i didn't know the contents of the actual game.
