Fishsticks - Super Meat Boy

[Xenesis]

So, it's been revealed (spoilers guys) that Naija is unlockable in Super Meat Boy.

Damn you Derek and Alec. Now I have to really really weigh up if I want to buy Super Meat Boy on PC after already owning the Xbox version :|

(Super Meat Boy is a platformer where you play a cube of meat, saving his girlfriend who has been kidnapped by a Fetus in a Jar with a Top Hat and monocle) http://www.supermeatboy.com

Haha, oh wow... I played Meatboy back when it was a mere flash game, completely disliked it because of the pixel perfect jumping and timing... has this changed in the actual PC version at all?

[Xenesis]

The controls are much, much better than the Flash game and while the really hard levels have some pixel perfection most of them are a lot more...fluid.

Someone's posted some videos of playing with Naija.

So I bought this game and unlocked Naija, even tho it's not really noticeable with the choppy framerate in the YT video.
Her ability is pretty hard to control, you can't "run" with her, but when you use the run button in the air, you change form until you let go, then you suddenly fly towards the direction you're facing in a steep curve upwards.
Then again, whole Super Meat Boy is pretty bugged on the abilities of the game.

Though then again again again, this should be still possible:

And he makes it look easy!

[Xenesis]

Eh. I had both the XBLA and PC versions of the game so I've finished that warp zone twice now

And most of the character bugs have been fixed...if your computer lags a lot you might want to put in -lowdetail or -meddetail in the launch options...the game tends to get buggy if it's running slow 

[Alphasoldier]

I think I've tried that warp zone for a full hour, I just can't get it. :/

[Xenesis]

It just takes practice.

As an aside, I just got 100 bandages in the XBLA and Steam versions.

Minecraft ho!

[Alphasoldier]

If "practice" means you're supposed to first get carpal tunnel, then no thanks. :C

[Xenesis]

Nah, just get the controls really down so much so that you could fly through the other levels.

I won't lie, that warp zone is hard but it is not the hardest thing in the game.

[Alphasoldier]

Not even the hardest? Give me one example that's harder.

[Xenesis]

Four Letter Word comes to mind.

[Alphasoldier]

I don't know all the levels by heart, give me a world and level number. =p

[Xenesis]

Cotton Alley, Level 20.

If you're feeling sadistic, the dark world versions of 19 and 20 are even harder.

I signed up to these forums just to comment here.  That was me!  Sorry that I didn't really do Naija any justice, but I'm not all that good with her (I only did the run since I love Aquaria so much )
