Super Meat Boy Forever Gameplay

The classic indie platformer returns with Super Meat Boy Forever from Team Meat. Sequel to the brutally challenging game from Edmund McMillen and Tommy Refenes. Originally planned as a mobile game, Super Meat Boy Forever developed into a fairly larger game and is now available on PC and Nintendo Switch. The title released a day or so ago, and there are some minor technical issues, but nothing that can’t be fixed. If you are facing the Super Meat Boy Forever not launching issue, here is how you can fix that.

This new entry is even bigger and far more complex than the original title. It will take some time to get used to the auto-run mechanic of the newer title, but the earlier levels give you a good idea of how the game works. There are over 7200 levels in total, and a lot of work has been put into the game.
