When i bought the game, i thought it would be the normaö game and not the siderunner. Personally i hate siderunners but this game is just a good game. The game got cool cutscenes, nice gameplay and lots of cool mechanics. I have encounteren no bugs trough out the game and i think that you should give the game a try if you have some spare money. Only thing i didnt like is that there is no fullscreen and just a nice looking border on the side, otherwise play the game its just great

At first i kind of expected it to be a boring runner game but not for long since the difficulty built up quickly. The controls are easy and since there arent any buttons you can see everything on the screen and it feels a lot more clean. The cutscenes are also fun addition to the game that also shows the player the MC characteristics, and it shows the character isn't bland. It's clear that a lot of love was put into the game. Other than that, you should add restart level next to the pause button

First of all, this is an auto runner type of game. I loved the original and while it's not a "true successor" to the first one in terms of gameplay. This is easily the best auto runner game I've played on a mobile. The difficulty is there and starts to ramp up quickly. You'll get those hard spots where you'll constantly die (and you will die, a lot). But it also has the "one more try" mentality while at the same time being able to play in short sessions without having to commit. Amazing game

First time playing a game from this franchise, having a great time. The movement is super satisfying. The game's UI starts to glitch when you're in a level for a certain amount of time. There's also colored rectangles that randomly appear. It can only be fixed by re-entering the world. ETA: Turns out that it was warp zones that caused it.

It's a well made game and has the same feel as the original meatbboy its skill based and great trying to shave off the extra milliseconds, perfecting a run. BUT ITS MISSING SOME KEY COMPETITIVE FEATURES :( - it doesn't show your total deaths or total time for a world - doesn't show your lowest deaths for a stage - strange how the default mode is a random seeding for obsticals, would be cool if there was a default seed so that your could more easily compare with friends

I was initially disappointed to realise it's an auto runner, but the game is much better than I thought it would be and the gameplay works well. There is one major issue though and that is the framerate cap will change itself to 30 for seemingly no reason. So every so often I've had to dip back into settings to fix it.

At first I was like eh Than I was like aaaaay. Brutal, fun, addictive, and utter bull $### wrapped in a fun little package. 1st experience with Meatboy and I'll be picking it up on steam as well. Edit: Tabbing away from the app and than going back to it without closing it can cause funky things to happen in boss fights. Haven't had an issue with it until the 3rd boss like others have, but I know not to do it again.

I love the game and I find it very VERY challenging, But one small issue is there if you pause the game during a level, turn your phone off, then turn it back on it causes the animation of dr fetus in the pause menu to speed up and go off sync with the audio also it kinda speeds up the game for a split second then the game returns to normal, not sure if anyone else has found this little bug or maybe it's just me who found it but overall the game is pretty fun.

Restarting a level locks the camera to the height coordinate you were at, sometimes resulting in a soft-locked death loop. Left side of the stage doesn't load when restarting sometimes. Controls only allow for swapping left and right, no idea why there's no option to tap the top left corner for jump/punch, and bottom left for drop/dash (or vice versa). Nothing is optimized for touch screens. It's very rough around the edges. Edit: bumping it down to 1 star cause my save file was deleted. Sorry.

I'm not sure if this is user error/"skill issue" but are some of the levels in the second world supposed to be unbeatable? Also, the game suffers from hitches that mess you up mid-play. After beating the 2nd boss and returning to the stage selection, everything becomes unselectable.

The camera glitch happened a lot. On the other hand it would disable the timer making it easier to beat levels on time. Also I got major slowdowns on the 60fps mode. For reference I have an s22. At points the whole screen would freeze and I'd die because of the horrible lag. Pretty addictive game though.

It's pretty awesome, but it's not fullscreen, it would be cool if the black bars on the sides of the screen were game art or something.. or just make it fullscreen. Edit: had to lower my review because of a bug with the camera when resetting levels, your camera gets locked in a bad spot and makes the level unplayable until you exit and re-enter

Really enjoyed this on Switch. On mobile, the game will occasionally freeze for a second. This is pretty bad for a game like this, but it's especially painful when it happens on a deathless attempt. Also, I'm pretty certain I got a seed without a warp zone in The Lab. The latest patch notes say this was fixed, but after running through all 12 levels at least a dozen times, the best I can find are areas where it looks like a warp SHOULD be. Addicting, fun game, but there are more bugs to fix.

Most if not all of the biggest issues I'm seeing in the critical reviews seem to have been fixed. I have not gotten into a death loop and my camera has not yet gotten stuck in one position. The game still is not full screen *but* they added a cute little border with a bunch of little meat boys in various poses. Much more visually appealing than black bars on either side of the screen.

Absolute blast of a game, great time killer and even better of a challenge. The game has quite the learning curve but an even better pay off. My one complaint is no way to reset a level automatically when doing s rank attempts instead having to pause and hit the reset button I think an option in the gameplay settings similar to the Speedrun timer to toggle would be great. It's a small nitpick but it would be a nice quality of life change for completionist of the game as I am trying to 100% it.

The moment I heard this was on Android, I jumped to buy it. But if I'm honest, it's not what I was hoping for. SMB was a brutal platformer that rewarded perseverance. Forever is just Mario Run with "red paint" and buzzsaws. Would be great to be able to control Meat Boy. Maybe the Original game can be brought to devices other than the dead Shield platform...

Great game! The difficulty is painful but that adds to the fun! I only have one issue and it's not with the game. I have an issue with whoever made that boss in the portal level of The Lab, called "Mega Bandage". This boss is so insane, it feels like it knows my next move. The only way I've ever gotten close to beating it was by purposely randomizing my movement techniques. If I do the same technique twice the boss catches on and throws a razor in anticipation. Did y'all make that boss sentient?

Not a game for everyone, the difficulty is high, but so is the payoff. If you wish to purchase this game, know that it's not gonna be easy to 100% it, and most levels require trial and error. Trust me, you'll feel amazing after beating a level you're stuck on. And, if you're getting frustrated, take a break and clear your head.

I usually find platformers aggravating and unrewarding, it's why I've become addicted to rougelike games, but this game is easily just as fun as Mario, except it doesn't cost $500 just to be able to play it, Cheap, Simple Controls, Soundtrack and sound effects are S rank and it doesn't pander its difficulty to the ridiculous ease of today's video games, Incredible job guys and gals, Games for Gamers instead of Profit and you can never go wrong

The best $1 I've spent for a game. The game is super fun and lots of replayability. Some fixes I'd make to the game is maybe trying to fix the random lag spikes. They're not frequent, but they happen. They sometimes crash the game. Another thing I'd add is a pop-up for skipping a cutscene to prevent accidental skips. I may have accidentally skipped the entire ending cutscene. I would recommend this game for people who don't want to play omega kaizo super mario world levels.
