The developers of The Stanley Parable have called out players who cheated to clear the recent Ultra Deluxe edition’s most difficult challenge. Initially created as a free-to-download Half-Life 2 mod by Davey Wreden and William Pugh, The Stanley Parable would soon become a standalone title in 2013. The game tells the story of Stanley, a voiceless office drone whose ordinary life is turned upside down when all of his co-workers mysteriously vanish one day. Guided by an omnipotent narrator (voiced by British actor Kevan Brighting), Stanley must choose between following the path laid out for him or branching out on his own, unlocking several different alternate endings along the way. Even years after The Stanley Parable was first released, players are still trying to find hidden meanings within the game’s many twists and turns.
Developer Crows Crows Crows would give these fans even more, to ponder earlier this year with the release of The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe, an extended re-release of the 2013 original that added new branching paths and a further meta-awareness of its nature as a video game. To empathize this last point, The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe features an unorthodox and surprisingly challenging achievement dubbed “Super Go Outside,” which requires players to not play the game at all for 10 real-life years as an extended version of the original’s five-year “Go Outside” challenge. By its very nature, this achievement is impossible to complete until at least 2032 — unless the player in question cheats by setting their computer’s clock to that date.
