You Have to Burn the Rope was a finalist for the Innovation Award at the 2009 Independent Games Festival.
Nevertheless, Justin Davis of IGN noted that there were a surprising amount of people who did not realize they had to burn the rope to win and complained that their axes did too little damage. Kian Bashiri, the game's developer, had stated in interviews that he wanted the game's entire experience to be spoiled by the title. The current speedrun world record is tied by users "i_o_l" and "CrystalineMind" at 26s 533ms. The entirety of the game is often shorter than the credits song itself, which runs for 2:13. However, the health bar regenerates too fast for the player to drain it completely.Īt the end there is a short section of credits which includes the original song "Now You're A Hero", composed by Henrik Nåmark. The character can throw axes which lower the Grinning Colossus' health bar.
To beat the Colossus, the player must touch one of the torches on the wall and use it to burn the rope attaching a chandelier to the ceiling, dropping it on the Colossus' heads. At the end of the level, an enormous "Grinning Colossus" awaits the player, shooting him with lasers coming out of his eyes, though they don't kill the player, only temporarily incapacitate them. You Have to Burn the Rope is a platform game in which the player must guide a character through a comically short level through the very simple winning conditions of the game are humorously summarized as text on the walls.
