![]() ![]() It's also funny, in a way that manages to be both dark and completely absurd. The visuals are simple but clean and appealing, and the soundtrack is fantastic. It's a great incentive to keep playing and see what it comes up with next. Each level constantly throws new twists at you, such as forcing you to play a level entirely in silhouette. Super Meat Boy isn't just punishingly difficult, it's extremely imaginative. People would be lined up outside your door with torches and pitchforks otherwise. Buckle up, buttercup we're in this for the long haul.Īnalysis: Let's be honest you can't make a platformer that the average gamer is going to fail approximately one billion times at without also making it inventive and charming. As you squish your way through the game's 300+ levels you'll find warp zones that'll take you to other games, bandages you can collect to help unlock new characters with special abilities, and once you've beaten a level you may want to check out its more challenging Dark World counterpart. Of course, Bandage Girl doesn't have to be your only goal. You'll need to run, leap, wall-jump and bravely dash your way through every obstacle, and at the end of each stage you get to see a video of all your level attempts trying (and probably failing) at once. Just be careful since a single hit for Meat Boy from either foe or hazardous environment will kill him and force you to restart the level. The game is divided up into themed worlds comprised of short but fiendish levels, and the goal at each (except the boss stages) is always to rescue Bandage Girl, wherever she may be. Frankly, if you can manage to beat the game with a keyboard, you're a better person than I am, Charlie Brown. The game offers you both keyboard and gamepad control options, and both I and the game recommend the latter. Which will be a great many times, since the level design in Super Meat Boy tends to be, as a rule, spite made manifest. no matter how many times you're reduced to a pile of gory chunks in the process. As Meat Boy, you'll do anything to get your adhesive beloved back, and you set out to rescue her. You also have Dr Fetus, who nobody loves, and decides to abscond with Bandage Girl. You have Meat Boy, and his girlfriend, Bandage Girl, who loves him. The story in Super Meat Boy is pretty simple. Fans want to know is it worth your time and cash? Short answer? Yes. That's right, kiddies, everyone's favourite blob of the red stuff is back in this quirky, tricky follow up to 2008's original. Who's in a hard platformer for all to see? SUPER MEAT BOY!

SUUUUPEEER. With a game spanning 12 different worlds and almost unlimited combinations of games, then you got a lot of meat on this burger.Ooooohhhh. As you will die, a lot seriously, I stopped counting after 65 times dying to one boss. That’s before we get to a meat pounding bloody boss, then the game really gets messy. I no doubt feel this will make some Super Meat Boy fans unhappy.Įven with these simplified controls, the game is still excruciatingly hard to beat and will test nerves and timing to the limits. Making gameplay it’s self simple and hopefully appeal the more people. It feels form like and endless runner as it is now just two buttons, jump/punch and slide/dive.It has a draw pretty big flaw some level areas can be impossible due to how it was generated. I know it gives more levels for players to play through and therefore longevity. Levels are now procedurally generated and not hand made bespoke levels.In terms of gameplay, Super Meat Boy Forever has made two meaty changes: The story is actually really bloody good with a good hour of cutscenes. When Super Meat Boy and Bandage Girl awake, they set off to get Nugget back and kick Dr Fetus’ arse. Fetus sneaks up on the pair and knocks them out with a shovel, and steals Nugget (I guessing he was hungry but not too hungry?). ![]() The duo has a recent addition: Nugget, a wee baby bit of meat! One day Dr. Super Meat Boy and Bandage Girl are living a quiet life years after the events of the first game. In his lastest rage quitting insatallment Super Meat Boy Forever. He is back!
