Super Meat Boy is easier with a gamepad only if gamepad is the input device you are more at ease with generally speaking, that's all. A few top players (Breakdown, Joe) play on keyboard and it's pretty obvious it doesn't hinder their skill. Oct 01, 2013 Super Meat Boy creator talks of hands-on time with Steam Controller 'I could play any game I wanted with it just fine,' says Super Meat Boy creator.
Hey guys I'm new to running SMB and I've checked out a couple of the videos that are posted but one thing I've noticed is that the 'A' 'S' keys trick is super useful. I'm using an Xbox controller since it feels more natural to me but I don't see any way to switch the bindings on my controller and it's extremely clunky to have to reach away from my controller and hit A on the keyboard. I want to change my 'X' button my controller to 'A' on my keyboard and the 'Y' on my controller to 'S'. Do you guys know of any way to do that?
Super Meat Boy’s controls can get pretty annoying, especially on the PC. Fortunately though, one very clever person has written a program that allows you to change it! Here’s how to download and use it:
Step One: Download the program

I can assure you this program is safe to download.
Step Two: Launch and set directory
Once you’ve extracted the file, run the program. Now click “Set root directory”. You’ll then be prompted to find the folder where Super Meat Boy is stored. Here’s the directory:

Then click ok!

Step Three: Remap the keys
This one’s pretty easy. Just click the drop-down menu with the key you want to remap and the select the new key! Do that for all the buttons you want to change, then click “Remap keys”. Done!

Step Four: Launch the game and be shocked at how amazingly it worked
Launch the game and have fun playing with your re-mapped keys! If at first it doesn’t seem as if the program worked, just double check that you clicked “remap keys”. I made that mistake. *Cries silently*
