As chronicled by IGN, content creators E1uM4y and Sharkov shared their successful run on the Chinese social media platform Bilibili, demonstrating their hardcore platforming skills and ultimately being rewarded with a special video for doing so. In it, Fares himself congratulates those able to clear the laser nightmare obstacle course, admonishing those of us who are only able to see it via video clips.
Like some kind of digital Willy Wonka, Fares promises that the first two people to clear the challenge will be flown to Sweden to check out Hazelight's next game. As good as his word, the director confirmed the duo's achievement on Twitter/X and promised, "We'll be in touch!"
At this rate, Hazelight will become one of modern gaming's most beloved developers. What do you think of this tale and the creative reward the studio put up? Let us know in the comments section below.
