I haven't played Monster Sniper Season 3—no one has yet, except its creator—but I can already tell you it's the worst game ever made. That's not a value judgement; it's the stated goal of the project.
Starting in November last year, TikTok creator Everywhere Nowhere has set out to deliberately make the worst videogame they possibly can, combining their own pet peeves with suggestions from commenters. Each video in the series shows the developer adding new dreadful features to the game that make it even worse each time.
As it stands, it's a 2D platformer about a poorly drawn rat with a boomerang and a rocket launcher. Here's just a selection of its infuriating features:
And, genuinely, that's not even a full list of all the maddening things that have been added between November and now. The irony, however, is that currently Everywhere Nowhere is inflicting all this on noone but themselves.
In order to test the levels, EW has to actually play them—and the game is so infuriating and tedious that they seem to be creating a private hell for themselves. One attempt to beat the first level, very early on in the game's life when it was still mostly just a basic platformer, took 145 tries. A more recent attempt to beat level 2 took over 1,000.
If you want to help out in the building of this digital torture device, just drop your suggestions on the latest video.
