You know how you have that one annoying friend who would always be like 'I'm so much better at Super Meat Boy than you' and 'If we could race I would destroy you!' Well guess what, get some potato chips, grab some controllers, and reluctantly call that friend over so you can shove his undeserving feelings of. One of the main reasons to make Super Meat Boy instead of any other project was that the original Meat Boy was by far the most popular game by Edmund on Newgrounds. Inspirations include: Mortal Kombat, Super Mario World, Street Fighter 2 (arcade, oh yes), and even Ren and Stimpy 4.
Super Meat Boy is a tough as nails platformer where you play as an animated cube of meat who's trying to save his girlfriend (who happens to be made of bandages) from an evil fetus in a jar wearing a tux.
Our meaty hero will leap from walls, over seas of buzz saws, through crumbling caves and pools of old needles. Sacrificing his own well being to save his damsel in distress. Super Meat Boy brings the old school difficulty of classic NES titles like Mega Man 2, Ghost and Goblins and Super Mario Bros. 2 (The Japanese one) and stream lines them down to the essential no BS straight forward twitch reflex platforming.
Ramping up in difficulty from hard to soul crushing SMB will drag Meat boy though haunted hospitals, salt factories and even hell itself. And if 300+ single player levels weren't enough SMB also throws in epic boss fights, a level editor and tons of unlock able secrets, warp zones and hidden characters.
