This is actually possible to beat, I’ve done it myself. there are 4 levels and there is even a good ending and a bad ending (It was hard enough to get the bad ending, so I wasn’t sure if there even WAS a good ending for certain until I checked online)
It’s more of a study into video game conventions than to deliberately annoy people. I’d call this a must play for any long time gamer, as it challenges you to not listen to your past memorized reflexes but to learn the game mechanics anew and how to use them in ways you wouldn’t normally expect.
