    A good platformer game but level designs are very simple and boring. Most of the places in the game that are made to be funny are not funny. But cartoon graphics in this game very well.

    This game is very good. it may not be a rage game, but it made me rage, though it is fun and fair. Every loss feels like your own fault and not the game being random like Cat Mario. 10/10

    The controls are definitely the best part of the game. Story is somewhat unintelligible and a bit too minimalist for my tastes but it's obviously not really a game where story is very important, and, well, you do end up wanting to kill the villain, so, there's that. New obstacles are presented rather quickly so the game doesn't bore you as it goes on. Difficulty is at a very pleasant levelThe controls are definitely the best part of the game.

    Thanks to its fast gameplay, it allows you to have a pleasant time. Even if it gets on your nerves sometimes, you play it over and over again thanks to your greed.

    Gameplay is challenging but its not a rage game, visuals are minimalistic but its not pixel art, music is really really good. One of the best platformers outta here.

    It may seem difficult to non this genres players, but it can test your might and patience. especially patience. i haven't done with it completely yet 'cause it's not a game that you finish it and don't come back to it ever

    This game is great it's one of the best true platformers of the 2010s, The game is difficult very difficult it will just keep kicking you down and down but it's so fun you just have to keep playing I felt as if I didn't even get mad when I kept loosing. 9/10 one of the best I've played in a while

    Super Meat Boy is good at what it does but what it does isn't super interesting.

    Aesthetically Super Meat Boy could have been pushed a lot further.

    I wouldn't really recommend Super Meat Boy.

    хадркод, костюмы, многообразие управления, вывереные уровни и просмотр твоей же смерти, когда всё таки получилось пройти уровень. Это всё было гениально

    Even if the level design and a lot of ideas are interesting and funny, the sometime unfairness of the game really drain you quickly. I don't see what's the point of making a game where you HAVE to die to understand of how things works, especially in the last worlds. Unfair levels, clunky controls and extreme precision needed to succeed is not what I call a challenge. It's not well balanced and you clearly don't get the point of completing it fully when you see how much time you need to invest in it.

    Games are supposed to be fun and challenging. This one has a lot of challenge (half of the time unfair) and some fun (half of the time also).

    So it's clearly not a bad game, especially done by two people. In 2010 it was a success but playing it today is not the best you could do, except for nostalgia, because since the first release, a lot of better and more balanced games were made.    … Expand

    This game does everything it sets out to do perfectly. It won't get easier over time, but you'll get better!
    The game's tight controls and unforgiving gameplay make it seem like no fun at first. But once you catch on and feel the first spark of motivation, there is no rest until you beat the level (and start the next one, of course).

    There is so much to do and some things seem impossible at first but it is all doable with enough practice. Few things beat the satisfaction of beating a level after over an hour of tries (and seeing your past failures all at once).
    The developers put a lot of their love of platforming, "motivational punishment" and gaming in general into SMB and it's always a treat to fire it up just to go 30 min on a single level (which there are more than 100 of - twice - with collectibles all over)    … Expand

    a man goes to the doctor. says he's depressed. he says life seems harsh and cruel. says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. the doctor says "the treatment is simple. the great clown pagliacci is in town tonight. go and see him, that should pick you up." the man bursts into tears. he says "but doctor... i am pagliacci."

    Funny meat man is pretty fun to play. I really appreciate how there's never really a huge spike in difficulty and the game just gradually eases you into doing the impossible with ease without you even noticing.

    This is the first indie game I ever played. Hell, it is tough. The first stages are practically a tutorial for the nightmare trial and error that is necessary to face the second stage and so on.

It's instigating and makes you want to get to the end to face the challenge.… Expand

    Indie gaming at its retro-loving best, with some of the most cunningly-designed and purposefully infuriating 2D gameplay of the year.
