Trailers: Platform Heaven

it's coming out for pc/wiiware too, if you mean smb

There's no such thing as “too many good indie games coming out.” ^_^

I like the ending of the Super Meat Boy trailer. :P

Fez – WHEN IT'S DONE

Well damn hahaha

Make climbing in Fez a bit faster.

Also, pc or gtfo. Seriously.

Super meat boy is insta buy :-D Damn that commercial is great!

these games look great, but nobody loves me

All of these look great! Can't wait for SMB. Super Crate Box looks pretty frantic as well, and Fez just looks charming. Thankfully I'll be able to get my hands on SMB next month for the Wii, but is Fez still in the “Duke Nukem Forever” developing stage?

“Shake it baby”

I want to hold off for the PC version, but it looks pretty awesome!

Cool 90's commercial, but Super Meatboy.. meh.

SMB looks good, but having grown up in the 80's and 90's, I'm not sure what's supposed to make it a “90's commercial”

Unless you take the view that all 90's commercials were annoying and overly long, I guess.

sounds like a really awesome premise… FOR A PLATFORM GAME

Action Replay for fez and your problems are solved.

Still, the old SEGA! commercials were better than that. This went on too long and had too many cheesy effects. Rather reminds me of any number of bad commercials for local haunted houses that crop up this time of year.

Better than I could do, though, I guess. Looking forward to SMB! And Fez… [drool]

FAST

FOOOOORWAAAARD

Thanks for the 4chan response. I guess you are gonna buy it too. We should play it together.

Is there multiplayer.

Flash games usually don't have multiplayer.

It's ganna be ok, Wobble. Shhhhh

Is there ever going to be a point where people who play and/or make video games are going to develop an actual sense of humour? One that doesn't involve simply making hollow references to nerd shit?

This video seemed funny until it starts going “Hur hur hur are you a bad enough dude to rescue your girlfriend? Did you guys get it? We made a reference to the fact that Bad Dudes exists! That's the whole joke! Did you get it? You see it's funny because we pointed out something that you as a nerd are aware of! Isn't that hilarious and amusing? We can't think beyond video games and the internet!”

The game itself is absolutely full of this sort of snivelling, shitty, internet dipshit, reference based humor and it is just horrendous. It's not a bad game, but the developers should just be beaten senseless for this kind of crap.

So uhh … lol

Anyway, played the demo for SMB — it was really really fun. Gotta say, awesome job Team Meat! I'll definitely buy the full game when I have the money :)

SMB: I too, will “buy” the full game once it hits pc.
Fez: unless it comes to pc so I can “buy” it, I don't care in the slightest.

When i played MB flash version, i was a sceptic and i actually slated the game in review because i thought the controls were a bit crap.

HOWEVER, i picked up SMB and its brilliant, its so polished and its just plain FUN.

props edmund!
GO BUY IT!!!!

Super Meat Boy is really well made. I like the really simple graphics because it is a statement about how games don't need to look good to be fun. The gameplay is pure genius, I never thought about it before, why does a platformer honestly need anything to it? Running and jumping should be it. Super Mario Bros. pisses me off because it had power-ups. Kiddy bullshit. I also can appreciate all the game references to make, because if you reference a game I like, I will associate that game with your game and love it just as much.

To be honest I wasn't going to buy it, I mean it didn't look special to me. I am glad people told me about it though and shoved it down my throat, now I love it! It even has my favorite indie all-stars like Gish! I never heard of Gish before but they're an all-star I guess. All the music is really good too, the three songs I've only heard so far after playing for maybe a day. For $15 this game is a steal. hell I would pay $60 for it. It's ranked higher than $60 games right now so it's totally worth that much to me.

I really love how challenging it can be too. Like sometimes you have to do something pixel perfect and then you slip into traps because the controls are really slippery and jumping isn't very responsive. Controls that sort of work but not always really add to the challenge. It's so brilliant and polished of a game, it makes me almost forget it was made in Flash, although the cutscenes sure help, as well as most graphics in the game.

This and VVVVVV are the best platformers in the past ten years. I don't like it when games have too much to their gameplay. Power-ups are really confusing, and same with using more than two buttons. If Super Meat Boy had any more to its gameplay than it already does, it would suck. The magic comes from how it has nothing to it at all, and for that it is brilliant. It makes a deep point about the game industry and how nobody understands how to make games except for Team Meat, at least that is what they told me on their blog. See games usually have artificial difficulty, giving you lives and shit. What is that crap? A game should be hard because the levels require absolute perfection, not because you only have a few chances to play through a game. I want 300 levels of trial and error, not a few really well designed levels that focus on the gameplay elements that are there and are skill based. Graphics don't need to look good, and Super Meat Boy just proves it. I can tell they only spent maybe a day drawing everything for the game, but that's okay! It's called style? Hello?

All and all, Super Meat Boy is the best game I have ever played in my entire life, and if TIGSource and Newgrounds aren't shoving this game down your throat enough, then do not worry, I am here to do it too. We can all do it, spread the word! I am also looking to Fez because it also makes use of just one gimmick, and that is all I need in a game.These games are indie gaming at its finest. Cave Story? GAY Story. It had WAY too much to it and it also didn't remind me enough that it was an indie game. Super Meat Boy constantly pushes it on me that it is an indie game, and for that I can appreciate it. If I didn't know it was an indie game I probably wouldn't ever play it, but just because it is I am going to play it daily and convince all my friends to spend their money on it so Team Meat can make their next game. Here's a suggestion for Super Meat Boy 2, please remove running. I don't like that there are TWO gimmicks in this game. Wall-jumping AND running? It's an overload.

If you hate this game you probably suck at it? Probably. There's a lot here for $15, 300 whole levels! 20+ hours of gameplay! Those 20 hours are spent on levels that are all exactly the same but still, that's a lot of play time! Giant Bomb even says you may never beat this game, and that is a sign of a good game. Overall, Super Meat Boy gets an 11/5. Indie gaming gold.

Also I'm a fucking idiot.

It should say “Product of the USDA”, retro never looked so good.

I don't understand why people who hate everything posted on TIGsource keep reading it.

It's like if I read some football blog and constantly ranted about them posting stupid meathead jock shit all the time.

I have this theory that Blake, WobbleWahoo, and Ugon2 are actually the same person.
