Bennett Foddy has announced a new game at the Devolver Digital conference called Baby Steps. The developer, best known for the game “Getting Over It” – the game where players had to climb a haphazard pile of debris with a bald man inside a cauldron using only a hammer and notoriously difficult controls – has revealed a trailer that promises an equally surreal and frustrating experience as their previous game. It is expected that Baby Steps will appeal to streamers and YouTubers, much like “Getting Over It” did.
Baby Steps has been announced for a 2024 release on PlayStation 5 and PC. Expect nothing but frustration, hair-pulling moments, and absurd comedy derived from impossible controls, a trademark of Bennett Foddy’s career.
