Super Meat Boy Forever
Super Meat Boy is back! This time around Meat Boy is always running, literally it's an auto-runner. You will jump, dive, slide and punch your way through brutal levels and mean boss fights. We designed 5,000+ levels so you can play the game over and over without seeing the same level twice.

“the game that made me realize how unhealthy my masochism is love the soundtrack and art direction tho”
“I've always wondered why this game wasn't as well rated as the original, I figured such a simple and addictive gameplay loop would be rather simple to double-down on. Boy oh boy, was I wrong... Whoever thought turning…”

“I can definently understand the negative reviews for this. The auto-run is alright, but the quality is better than its prequel. There even more characters that you keep you hooked, and more levels that are even harder.…”
“Okay, I've got some things to say. More good then bad, but still. The game is great. It's fun, challenging, and overall pretty good. I wouldn't say it's better then the original but it holds up well. It shouldn't be in…”

“Если после легендарной первой части вы ждете от этой игры такой же хард платформер, то к сожжалению вы его не получите. Это по сути мобильная казуальная игра, где персонаж бежит сам, а вам надо только 2 кнопки нажимать.…”

“This game is literal trash. The original super meat boy made you rage in a good way, its free movement allowing you to adapt to the level whereas this game is an autorunner. This means that meat boy is constantly moving…”

“Got this game for $0.99, still a waste of my cash. Gonna be one of the worst games to 100%. Not a lot of achivements, but still annoying.”
“team meat once again proves they have no idea why super meat boy was a massive success, what are they doing? this game is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bad, it can be alright but at a VERY steep discount, i remember preordering this on…”
“It feels like time is being dragged out whenever I play this, not even worth the 79 cents I paid Their decision to make it an auto runner might've been cool when they started development for it in 2012, but now it just…”

“Probably the least interesting game I've every played. It's like Geometry Dash but with an extra button. At least in Geometry Dash you can enjoy the music. Here it's just hell and blood splatter over and over again.…”

— a player, Steam review · 9 hrs played“Please ignore any negative review whose basic premise is "muh, autorunner, bad". These are written by people who apparently can't read. Super Meat Boy Forever doesn't try to hide what it is and makes no apologies for it. And that's fine. If you really aren't into autorunners of…”
