How it feels

A chaotic party game that blends precise jumping and punishing difficulty with darkly comedic game show stakes.

What players say

Players say Pain Party is a brutally unforgiving one-hit-death platformer that feels like a sadistic game show. Single-player has a grind for skill points and levels unlock slowly, while multiplayer is reported as dead. The jump has a delay players get used to, and some levels like 'unnamed goose' are widely disliked.
