Super Meat Boy (BlitWorks) - €12.99/£11.99
Super Meat Boy is a tough-as-nails platformer where you play as an animated cube of meat who's trying to save his girlfriend (who happens to be made of bandages) from an evil fetus in a jar wearing a tux.
Our meaty hero will leap from walls, over seas of buzz saws, through crumbling caves and pools of old needles. Sacrificing his own well-being to save his damsel in distress. Super Meat Boy brings the old-school difficulty of classic titles and streamlines them down to the essential straightforward twitch reflex platforming.
Ramping up in difficulty, from hard to soul-crushing, SMB will drag Meat Boy though haunted hospitals, salt factories and even hell itself. And if 300+ single player levels weren't enough, SMB also throws in epic boss fights, tons of unlockable secrets, warp zones and hidden characters.
