Super Meat Boy All info you need about it is here
Super Meat Boy is a platform game developed by Team Meat and is the successor to Edmund McMillen's and Jonathan McEntee's flash game, Meat Boy, originally released on the Newgrounds website in October 2008. It was released on Xbox Live Arcade on October 20, 2010, and on Windows on November 30, 2010. Versions for Mac and Linux are planned for future release. The game follows Meat Boy as he attempts to rescue his girlfriend Bandage Girl from the villainous Doctor Fetus.
The game received high praise from critics. The Xbox 360 version currently averages an aggregate score of 90/100 at Metacritic and 90.42% at GameRankings. The Windows version holds a similar score of 91.67% at GameRankings. It received the award for Most Challenging Game from IGN in 2010 and also received awards for Best Downloadable Game from GameSpot and GameTrailers that same year. Critics lauded the game's precise control and unique retro art style. Reviewers generally praised the game's high difficulty, though some warned that not all consumers would appreciate the difficult levels.
Gameplay :
The game sees players taking on the role of a small, skinless, cube-shaped boy named Meat Boy, who must save his girlfriend, Bandage Girl, from the evil Dr. Fetus. Players must guide Meat Boy to the end of each level, using his wall clinging ability, while avoiding buzzsaws, salt, and other various fatal obstacles. The core gameplay can be compared to many traditional platformers such as Mega Man and N, requiring fine control and split-second timing. The game contains about 350 levels, which are split across various chapters. Levels in each chapter can be played in any order, but a certain number of levels need to be completed to access the boss stage, which unlocks the next chapter if cleared.
Completing a level within a certain time will earn an 'A+' grade which unlocks a harder alternate level. In addition to these, there are hidden warp zones featuring retro styled bonus levels, most with a limit of three lives. Clearing certain warp zones or collecting enough hidden bandages unlocks guest characters from other indie games. There is also a replay function, showcasing failed attempts simultaneously.
The Xbox Live Arcade version features an unlockable mode called "Teh Internets" which will be freely updated with new levels. A level editor for the PC and Mac versions will be released some time in January, featuring a level portal where users can upload, download and rate created levels. However, players can use certain means to access a developer mode allowing them to edit their own levels.
Characters :
Along with Meat Boy, there are several unlockable characters appearing from various video-games, each with unique abilities. In April 2009, Team Meat announced that Tim, the protagonist from Braid, would be the first unlockable indie game character. Later, Commander Video from the Bit.Trip series and Alien Hominid were revealed to be additional unlockable characters. Flywrench from Flywrench and Ogmo from the Jumper series were also recently confirmed as playable characters for the game.
Each character has different attributes, such as Commander Video's ability to float midair. These characters can be unlocked by collecting enough bandages or completing certain warp zones. Some bandages can only be collected by using certain characters. Some levels, such as warp zones and boss levels, can only be played with specific characters. Additionally, characters vary depending on the version played, or more specifically the game platform.
