If you pre-order, it's only $9.99, which bumps up to $14.99 when it released on the 30th. | ||

From deliberately unexpected instant death mechanics to unfairly punishing level design to the direct mocking of the player via Dr. Fetus, this was a game designed entirely to teach you the true meaning of pain, of soul-rending agony. Oh Bandage Girl, woe have I endured to free you from his dreaded clutches, walls made of buzzsaws have I climbed, worlds of lava and fire like the nine levels of Hell have I traversed, many a time have I watched my animated bovine muscle tissue splattered all over the screen, but again and again I persevered, until we were reunited again, only to be rewarded with this promise of a sequel... | ||

The amount of anger that was generated by this game was so unfathomable, if there were a method of transmuting emotions into pure energy, I could have powered the entirety of Rhode Island.

For people who have not played the original on Newgrounds, this game is hard. No, not "I actually have to pay attention?" hard. This game is truly hard. Nintendo Hard. SNK Boss Hard. Playing this game brings back memories of the old-school classics like Battletoads and Contra, and I don't mean fond memories, I mean those repressed memories where you ended up getting into a fight with your brother over a video game and have now agreed to never speak of it again. Instant death, unfair level design, parts that require near pixel-perfect precision, this game uses every trick in the Platform Hell book and then some. If you are one of those people who throw controllers and swear incoherently, this is not a game for you. If you suspect you may have a heart condition, this is not a game for you. If however you are a gaming ace or a fan of platform hell games, then please go right ahead. And may I recommend I Wanna Be the Guy, which will teach you beautiful levels of pain. | ||

its hard in a.... "Here's a hard ass level. Timing will matter, holding jump a little too long will kill you, but everything is fairly straight up. You lost because you messed up, and this level didn't allow for mistakes." To give a more relevant example you might know of.... You know Ninja Gaiden for NES? You know that one ledge, where you jump down, and there is a bullet mid air traveling to kill you? You need to jump this bullet, but it is fired before you can see the bullet itself, or the shooter shooting it. Super meat boy does NOT do that kinda shit. You can see the level and know 100% what to expect. It will be hard, but if you are awesome, you could pass every level on the first play. No horseshit here, but it is hard. | ||

It's definitely hard though and the some parts of the game require perfection and robotic precision to get through. | ||
