    ch.3 Dark World completed. Some great levels - superb balance of challenge and ingenuity. Not collecting bandages - will go back for those. There are some real stinkers I spotted! :)

    Onto A+ ing ch.4 Light world now. 

    Having a crack at Cotton Alley Light World too - on level 7 of that . A bloody propeller one.

    Rewatching my vids on earlier pages is giving me the shivers. Great to see others enjoying it. Top 10 all-timer IMO!

    Y'all should try The End of the World is Nigh if you like this. It peaks at a similar level, even if not quite three consistency. Its end game is top lols.

    Just got a couple of the first Dark levels of ch.4 done. Heh. Really cranking up .  I have still to A+ ch.4-20 in Light World. It's a bit of a puzzle that one - I have to time my run to enter the lava chamber as the level is low and is dropping otherwise I lose too much time waiting for it to cycle. Seems the quicker I get there the worse it is...unless it's possible to get through it on the first cycle. Have been close but doesn't feel possible*



    * Which probably means it is!

    Didn't start playing until later tonight so a bit tired. All but 1 of the first 7 Dark levels of Hell/ch.4 done. The one out of that 7 I haven't managed yet is 4-3X - the ascent against the fast rising tide of lava. The Light one is tricky enough but this seems to give you less time and there's a final jump through 2 buzzsaws which is the coup de grace.  :) Have got close but it's a real hand wrecker. The 3rd jump is a real killer - any mistake at all and you don't grip the wall enough to do the 4th jump.

    Have had a couple of goes at the glitch worlds. I can get past the first section of the first one but then I'm baffled - there's then a sequence of 1 brick wide towers with a spike on the top...going to be a real bastard to beat that one.  Got a decent way into the ch.2 one but have hit a real killer sequence of jumps that have to be performed perfectly to avoid hitting the ceiling - the worst type for me. :)

  • Loving the updates. Always hoped you'd succumb to its charms. There's still hope for @retroking1981 . I know he owns it but it's never quite clicked for him.

    Had fun with this one..

    The jump you have make just before you drop down the shaft onto the moving platform about half way is one of the toughest I've come across so far. It looks so innocuous.

    In a Teams meeting today in work and I was looking at the squares people appeared in and I imagined Meat Boy doing wall jumps off the sides of them.....this has got under my skin.

  • It’s such a great game. I bought a PS5 in the summer and since then I have basically played zero games on it and only played Meat Boy and Meat Boy Forever on my Switch. Each time I think ‘Let’s get into Red Dead Redemption a bit more’ and I just end up on Meat Boy.
    That was awkward and unsettling, never post anything like it again.

    Got 4-3X eventually. Will have to go back one day and get that bandage but good enough for now!!




    Progress is getting slower now. 2 or 3 levels per session but I'm still progressing. Up to 4-9X now.

    4-11X was a real bastard. At one point I thought I had reached my skill limit. But perseverance. It's amazing how skills improve almost imperceptibly toward making something impossible possible.. All credit to the controls and physics of this game. 

    cleared 4-12X quickly but 4-13X is a collapsing wall job which is going to be very tricky.

    Cleared a few more tonight. I have 2 Dark levels of Ch.4 to clear but I have also still to A+ 4-20 Light before going back and tackling its dark version too. I am at those levels with the annoying black homing missile that splits into shrapnel you have to dodge.  They feel a bit random to me so aren't as satisfying.

    Got the A+ on 4-20 at last.

    "Just" 4-17X and 4-20X to clear the dark world levels now before moving onto ch.5.  
    4-17X has that bloody mouth shaped homing missile that breaks up into 8 pieces and is a real cunt to deal with.

    Picked up a few bandages in earlier chapters too.

    61% complete with 38hrs on the clock...wonder if I can 100% this in <100hrs.  :)

    One more dark level in ch.4 to do.  4-20X. Quite puzzle like. There's a laser room which is proving tricky.

    Picked up some more ch.2 bandages and warp zones and have unlocked another character.

    You're kinda making me consider having another play through but I know my muscle memory will have gone so it'll be like doing it from scratch again and I'm not sure I have the mental fortitude. Enjoying the updates tho.
  • Last time I played I sailed through the light world stages in maybe 2hrs, so a certain level of muscle memory remains, but I know some of the dark world stages would destroy me.

    Cracked 4-20X. Have moved onto the ch.5 The Rapture and getting the A+ Lights pretty quickly. The dark levels will be another wall though. 

    Loving the soundtrack on ch.5. I prefer the 2010 soundtrack to 2015.

  • I'm also considering a return to this and you know what, I think I will. I assume this can be dl'd on a SX if I owned it on 360?
  • 4-20 blaze it etc etc

  • Davy, just watched your 420 (blaze it) clear uploaded ~1hr ago as it popped into my feed, praise the algorithm! Is that you I can hear going 'arghh' and 'yes!' or am I imagining things?
  • He definitely said 'ya bollix' in one of them.
  • That's what I don't get, it looks captured via console but then I hear a voice?

    Enjoying it.
