I beat the main game with 10 trinkets in 1 hour 30 mins. Doing this one trinket took me another hour and 30 mins. I wanted to send this to the game's developer, but this will have to do:

If you don't know what I'm talking about, check out this (not mine):

why do we pay money for torture^^
 
congrats to you :) I can only play this in very small chunks

So, that Meat Guy.
Any kind words?

I feel your pain. That part took me a

Oh man, that's hilarious. XD
 
I beat this game last night and the majority of that time was spent getting that one trinket. I don't believe I've ever felt so good completing a challenge in a video game.

Oh wow, this stuff reminds me only too well why these masochistic platformers aren't for me.

XD  Great job beating that one, it took me over 150 deaths.... 
  
This game is hard, but not the hardest I've played :P 

" Oh wow, this stuff reminds me only too well why these masochistic platformers aren't for me. "

Congratulations man! I was looking into getting this but I think the pain will be to much haha

Must... resist urge to buy....

I wish there were more parts like this. The rest of the game was fun but nowhere near as difficult

Well to be fair, it's mainly just this particular part (and it's optional). The rest of the game is nowhere near as bad. "

It's a travesty that this won't win GOTY.

I just decided to never get that trinket!

That part is brutal.

Heh I'm on that bit right now, soul crushingly hard... :(

Yeah that particular trinket is unholy man.... I bet the developer laughs his ass off everytime he thinks about people playing that part.

God damn that part, I fuckin beat it though. Beat it's ass. After 200 tries.

I recently decided to play it again in anticipation of Super Meat Boy (two more days :D) and went for all trinkets. This particular one took me well over 500 tries on three different play sessions. I obviously suck at this game, but I still love it :)
Getting that trinket is definitely one of my best gaming moments of 2010.

Hah, I played this part yesterday and it took me about 45 mins to pass. Strangely enough, I didn't even rage one bit. I think the fact that you respawn instantly when you die removes any and all frustration for me.

This game is a cocksucker. I don't hate myself enough to go for that trinket, but I did find the elephant..........that was cool.

" @benmatthews:  LOL, I would love to see your reaction when you try to unlock The Kid from I Wanna be the Guy in Super Meat Boy. XD "

I really don't see how people can bear to play such torturous games! When I play I wanna have fun an enjoy it, not smash my screen!

veni vidi exire - I came I saw I left.

" @armaan8014: It IS fun. Everything surrounding the difficulty of VVVVVV helps to make it not frustrating; the instant respawning after death, checkpoints in every room, the awesome music. Dying is not a big deal in this game. "

" @armaan8014: I guess you have to be really competitive to endure it and maybe hate yourself a little bit, too.   It didn't take me that long to finish the game, Super Meat Boy was a lot harder.. but the stories are both very entertaining, great games. "

Such a joy seeing other people's pain at this part. Ah...

" I feel your pain. That part took me a

vvvvvv

ery long time.

D: "

Just did this bit and it felt great when i got it :D 
I Got it in about 10 to 20 mins wich was alot quicker than when i thougth i would.

Probably took me about 300 tries until I finally got it.

I just want to say the cutscene you get as a reward for finding all 20 trinkets is really awesome.

I won't say "is totally worth it," because if you don't have fun spending half an hour on veni vini vici, no cutscene on earth would be worth that, but if you did have fun making gradual progress on that very difficult challenge, as I did, the game definitely rewards you.

I completed the game (with 11/20 trinkets) with a little under 1000 deths. 180 of them where getting this one shiny.

The fact that the game doesn't cut out the music when you die saves it from being unbearable, after I Wanna Be The Guy I have the first few seconds of Megaman 2 - Wily Stage forever stuck in my head.

Thats nothing, get a V Rank on that level.

Try staying in the gravatron for 1 minute lol. My best is like 8 seconds.

I beat Veni Vedi Vice 6 times in a row, it's a cake walk. Admittedly, I play the hell out of the game and practiced that part haha. Gonna try to make a video of me doing it blind-folding. First time doing that though was a huge pain in the ass, a lot of F words too.

It isn't even that difficult.

Veni vidi vici was such a good album. I used to love the hives.
