oday we are going to talk about Super Meat Boy, an indie-game I can’t keep my hands off of! The platform game was originally released as a flash game called “meat boy” developed by Edmund McMillen and Jonathan McEntee back in 2008. It was rated high upon thousands of users on Newgrounds.com and received overall good criticism.
Being developed by Flying Wild Hog, and Devolver Digital this first person shooter is set to blast it’s way back onto PC’s this fall minus the controversy and stereotypes though. Why? Because lawsuits. That’s why.
Race the Sun plays a bit like a racing rendition of Star Fox with polygons and a calculated lack of textures that gives you a really cool virtual reality type of feel while playing. Each race has multiple objectives, and you don’t have to complete a perfect round to get to the next stage. So there’s replay value in that alone since you may find yourself skipping ahead once you’ve met the requirements for a level, then backtracking in order to truly master that same level. The game also features an intense online system including a login system with leader-boards and even more features. No worries though, as you can also play without all of that if you don’t have time to sign up during your first run through and just want to see what all the fuss is about.
