Boiling It Down: Game Design in Super Meat Boy

GP Blogger, Matthew Root writes, "With each passing year, videogame genres evolve as innovative developers add complexity and new features to keep their games fresh. Super Meat Boy bucks that trend with game design that goes in the opposite direction. Team Meat, the independent developers of Super Meat Boy, chose to strip down the mechanics that have been built around the platform genre over time and then construct their game with a minimalist design that offers a straightforward experience.

This is just plain sad, they are basically charging you for online and that's it, I guess this goes hand in hand with the "tell me you only play AAA games without telling me you only play AAA games"

Both Gamepass and Gold games offerings have gone way downhill.

Super Meat Boy was a Games with Gold title back in 2016..It's leftover Meat from 2016

I’ll give it another go.

Such a great decade for video games

IMissJimRyan1999d ago

Rayman Legends for me is the winner.

SyntheticForm1999d ago

Plenty of greats, but Ori hands down for me.

Hollow Knight a close second.

NecrumOddBoy1999d ago

They put Celeste in the honorable mentions. Such a shame, this game is premium in platforming. Rayman is also def a 10/10 platformer.
