Series: Getting Over It Strategy? (part 3 of 3)Previous part

I'm finding it extremely difficult to make progress in Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy on my own, so I've decided to write an article to gain some sense of accomplishment.

This is my third attempt. It seems like I have less content than usual.

First attempt

Getting Over It Strategy? vol.1The author, who has challenged the self-torture of playing "Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy", will introduce the game and provide strategies for overcoming the initial difficulties. This high-difficulty game is notorious for its poor operability and backtracking, which torment players. From crossing trees to overcoming rocky cliffs, smooth rocks, and arrows, we will introduce techniques for overcoming each obstacle while revealing the stressful aspects of the game.

Second attempt

Getting Over It Strategy? vol.2I'm continuing my strategy for Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy. I'll ride the arrow, climb the house, and challenge the pipe. There are two patterns to climb, and it's up to the player's skills to choose which one to use. While introducing techniques to overcome each difficult point, I'll also show you the stressful side of the game.

Strategy

Review of Last Time

I managed to climb up with momentum.

Trash Can

For some reason, a trash can is placed in the gap.
Let's call this area the "trash can" for now.

I can overcome this area by climbing down the rock below and using the momentum to grab onto the rock above. It's not much different from last time.

I did it. It's simple.

Red Iron Beam

Now, a challenging configuration awaits.
It's a steeply inclined (around 30°?) and slippery iron beam.

As you can see from the image below, the hammer can't even reach it.

So, what can I do?
Of course, I have to utilize the momentum from climbing up from below.

If I climb up with momentum and grab onto the beam like in the image below, I'll succeed.

Summary

My heart is broken
A sound is heard

This is the most stressful experience I've had since starting this game.
