Chapter 332: The Tortured Streamers
Lin Xue’s chest heaved as she struggled to calm herself down.
Who said this was a healing game? This was clearly a scam game, designed purely to torment players, just like *Flappy Bird*!
No wonder Chen Mo released it on April Fool’s Day—this was obviously his revenge on the world!
Lin Xue glanced at the barrage. Although the viewer count hadn’t increased much, the number of comments had skyrocketed.
“This BGM is killing me, Chen Mo did this on purpose, right?”
“Hahaha, Ah Xue looks so cute when she’s mad, but I can’t help laughing, what do I do?”
“Ah Xue, keep going, you can do it!”
“Don’t give up, Ah Xue!”
Many viewers were cheering her on, though it was hard to tell if they were genuinely encouraging her or just enjoying the chaos.
Lin Xue decided to keep playing. It wasn’t for the sake of entertainment value—mainly because the audience loved it, and she also had a stubborn streak, wanting to conquer the game to prove herself.
...
Within just an hour or two, *Getting Over It* had suddenly taken over all the major streaming platforms.
Viewers from various streams started flooding the chat rooms of big streamers, spamming them to play *Getting Over It*. The spam grew more and more intense, and these big streamers grew curious—what kind of game was this?
During their breaks, the streamers downloaded *Getting Over It* and began their own journey of suffering.
These streamers all went through the same emotional rollercoaster as Lin Xue.
First came confusion—what was the point of this game? Then bewilderment—holy crap, this game is so twisted? Then defiance—damn it, I’m going to conquer this game and show you all! Finally, collapse—I’m going to kill the person who made this game!
Different streamers brought their own unique styles to the experience.
Take a certain technical streamer, for example.
“A lot of people say *Getting Over It* is hard? I’ve only been playing for a few minutes, let me show you what fast progress looks like, what classic teaching is.”
“Hmm? No problem, we hit a small setback, no big deal, it’s harmless, let’s continue.”
“Ah, got stuck there for a bit, that was my mistake, I won’t make the same error again, harmless, let’s keep going.”
“Ah!!!”
“Okay, I’ve steadied myself. Every failure is a stepping stone to success. Trust me, as a technical streamer, I’m very close to victory.”
“...Holy crap!! No, I need to calm down.”
“Alright, we’re back to the start, but you know what? This isn’t the beginning, it’s the midpoint of our journey. We’re moving forward in a zigzag, you get what I mean?”
“I’m a technical streamer, my gaming talent is top-notch, you understand, right? I’m going to prove to you that this game isn’t hard at all in the hands of a pro.”
“Hook! Steady! Fly! Go!”
“Ah!!!”
“Can a little difficulty break me? Okay, no rush, extend the hammer, hook, don’t rush, hook x5, slow down, don’t be impatient, pull back, keep hooking.”
“Hook... ah!!! I’ll hook your mother’s banana peel!!!!”
...
A certain civilized streamer.
“Nice. This crappy game is absolutely no challenge for me.”
“Nice, see? I told you this stupid hammer thing can’t stop me at all.”
“Ah!!!!”
(Stares blankly for ten seconds, slams desk frantically, desk HP -100.)
“I’ll conquer this damn game today if it’s the last thing I do!”
“Mm~ oh! Ah!! Ow!!!”
(Calms down, lights a cigarette.)
“Ahhhh! Ahaha.”
“Slow and steady, no rush, one hook, hook, uh! Ah!!!!”
(Slippers slam desk wildly.)
“Heh heh heh, I’m laughing out of sheer anger.”
“Ah!!! Mm, ah!!!”
(Slippers slam desk wildly x3.)
“Ugh, so annoying! Bounce! Bounce! Sorry!!! No!!!”
“Sorry!!!”
(Heart-wrenching screams.)
“Don’t rush, please! Don’t! Don’t! Don’t!!”
“What... the hell is this!!!!”
(Blank expression, contemplating life.)
The barrage flooded with: “That day, he passed away peacefully.”
...
A certain rational streamer.
“Today we’re starting *Getting Over It*. I’ve heard a lot of streamers have been driven crazy by this game, but I won’t be, you know why? Because I have strong rationality.”
“A lot of people lose their cool and just swing the hammer wildly, but that’s useless. Mindset is key in this game. See? Just like that, we’ve already made it here.”
“No rushing here, slowly, boop! Didn’t make it, boop! Made it. See? Isn’t it simple?”
“This is a huge obstacle. Up! Go! No rushing here, take it slow... Oh crap!!!”
“Crap!!!”
“Stay calm, stay calm, stay calm... Phew.”
“Okay, after that last failure, we’ve got plenty of experience with this spot. Now we’ll use that experience to get through it.”
“Everyone watch closely, this is the moment of truth. Let’s go! Up! Hook! Ah!!!!!”
“Motherf***er motherf***er motherf***er motherf***er!!!”
“Finally made it! Hahaha! Hey!!! No!!! No!!!”
“Calm, calm, calm...”
“As long as! We! Stay! Calm! We! Can! Climb! Up! Smoothly!”
“Ah, wait, let me rest first.”
“Continuing, three, two, one, go! Go!”
“So, at this point in the game, the hard parts aren’t really hard. It’s all about whether you can keep your cool. If you can steady your mindset like me, you’ll find it easy, easy, hey! Hey!! No no no no ah!!!!”
“No!!!”
...
A certain collapsed streamer.
“Damn it, I’ve wanted to quit this game for ages.”
“But I just can’t help clicking on it. I want to see what’s up there.”
“I can’t control my own hand, I keep opening this game. I think... this might just be pathetic!”
“I don’t know how far I can climb, but my curiosity keeps driving me upward.”
“Don’t talk to me about mindset now. My mindset blew up ages ago. My only thought right now is to finish this game and delete it!!”
“Don’t fall, don’t fall, don’t fall! I’ve made it this far, I’m definitely deleting this game!!”
“Ah!!!”
“I’m playing your mother’s crap! Stupid game!!!”
...
A certain mentally unstable streamer.
“Life’s troubles!”
“Tell them to Mom!”
“Work stuff!”
“Talk it over with Dad!”
“Go home often! Go home often!”
“Hahahahaha...”
“Hahahahaha...”
