There's a ton of streamer rage bait bullshit platformers like Jump King, Only Up, that Egg game, Baby Steps. Why are there no platformers that involve climbing up some long ass tower that aren't bullshit?
I want an actual 8-10 hour climb if you don't fall, and any falls you do incur are just a loss of a couple minutes max. Where's the casual climber game for old uncs like me?

because there are. you just wanted to complain about nothing because your life is full of hate and you're a terrible person.

Celeste isn't what I'm talking about at all. That's a series of separate levels and the levels require multiple tries. I said I want unc climb a tower simulator. I want something easy where you climb for a long ass time where a speed run would take 8-10 hours

Dev response:
It's a content problem. those games are 20m to 1h long, and you inflate with super high difficulty and reset to 0 on fail. A normal game with checkpoints to achieve 8-10 of content would beef to be ten times lager, with double or more gimmicks to keep interest
Also there are a couple of casual climber games

I get that it takes more effort, just wish someone would do it. What are the casual climber games?

Remember Icy Towers? God I'd love to play that again. Steam port when?

There's this one recently that is this pretentious it's all about muh depression but reading about what you want gameplay/presentation wise.

And I forgot the title. It's about rock climbing, the protag is a colored woman because of course and it got decent to good reviews. Haven't played myself because I don't think the game's for me.

Come to think of it. what about Mario Maker 2? Plenty of vertical levels there and you can make your own.

Jump King is genuinely good.
I don't watch streamers and I don't stream myself but I saw a clip of this randomly and thought I had to try for myself.
It took a good 6 hours to finish the first tower, double that for the second and and double that amount again for the third tower, but eventually you get REALLY good at it, you enter some flow state and everything becomes a breeze.
Only achievements I'm missing are the ones about not having a single fall.
Get it when it's on sale, forget about streamers and have fun by yourself.
The atmosphere and soundtrack are also really good.
