In the end, if the incredibly challenging campaign isn't enough then there's a great deal of supplementary content that'll keep you busy for weeks.Ĭonsidering Super Meat Boy came out five years ago, it's no longer the hardest game around. These warp zones are styled like retro games and some of them unlock new playable characters once you pass them. On top of all this, some stages have a hidden bandage to collect and warp zones to discover. Although that chapter is extremely difficult, you also gain access to more challenging versions of each stage (known as the dark world) once you beat the original versions in under the par time. Once you work your way through all of that (which will take quite a while), you unlock an extra chapter where you play as Bandage Girl.
The main campaign includes five chapters that are broken up into twenty stages and a boss fight each as well as a final chapter that has five stages and a boss. One of the most impressive aspects of Super Meat Boy is the massive amount of content. Don't worry, Bandage Girl Meat Boy's here to save you! Overall, Super Meat Boy is a joy to play with graphics that don't get in the way of gameplay and oodles of hilarity that frequently arise. There's also a cast of unlockable cameo characters such as Commander Video, The Kid from I Wanna Be the Guy, Tim from Braid, and Alien Hominid. Many game references are made which add to the levity including allusions to Street Fighter II, Castlevania, Adventures of Lolo, Ninja Gaiden, and Mega Man 2. Fetus inevitably swoops in to snatch her up again. Once he attempts to rescue Bandage Girl at the end of each stage, Dr. Fetus) and the love of his life (Bandage Girl). The sense of humour throughout his adventure is absolutely crazy as seen in the antics of his arch-enemy (Dr. I guess that's what he gets for being a skinless being made of raw meat. Meat Boy is quite small yet his animations are rather humorous such as the fact that he leaves a trail of blood everywhere he goes. On a visual level, Super Meat Boy's stages are clearly rendered with simplistic designs that help you focus on the gameplay.
That being said, it sure feels awesome to make any sort of progression. Upon finally completing a stage, a replay showing all of your attempts simultaneously will make you shake your head at how many times you failed. Each stage can take a matter of seconds to beat but that usually only happens after dozens of attempts. Interesting hazards slowly get introduced such as force fields that repel you, homing missiles, and locked doors. Almost everything in sight is trying to kill you but thankfully the controls are super-tight which allows you to overcome seemingly impossible situations given some practice. It's played like your standard 2D platformer except you can jump off walls. Anyway, if you're unfamiliar with Super Meat Boy then let me go over the basics.
Now that I've completed it again on PlayStation 4, I must say that I'm slightly disappointed that nothing noticeable has changed. 🧐 Some of these bonus stages are just plain ridiculousīefore we begin, I should mention that I played through Super Meat Boy on Xbox 360 when it first came out.
│ One of Video Chums' core principles is "it's better to be late and thorough than it is to be early and misinformed". Considering there's really nothing new to see, the question is will it be worth picking up for newcomers to the world of meat? Super Meat Boy is Cross-Buy with PS Vita and also available for Nintendo Switch, Wii U, and Xbox 360Īfter almost five years, everyone's favourite meaty adventure is now available on PlayStation.
