Plan B Anyone? Cheesing a Hard Game Boss vs Patched Exploit
Overview
This is a two-panel meme using footage from the classic animated series Tom and Jerry. The top panel shows Butch the black cat straining to push a door closed, overlaid with text that reads 'Me trying to cheese a hard game boss'. The bottom panel shows the door shattering apart, with Jerry the mouse standing behind the broken door looking angry, while Butch still holds the broken door pieces, with text that reads 'The exploit has been patched'. The meme humorously references the common gaming practice of 'cheesing' (using unpatched exploits or easy loopholes) to defeat difficult boss fights, and the relatable frustration that occurs when game developers patch those exploits, removing the easy way to beat the boss.
