Good day, I’m Tommy Refenes. It’s possible you’ll keep in mind me from such video games as Tremendous Meat Boy and Tremendous Meat Boy Perpetually. I’m delighted to have the ability to inform you that the Meat Boy universe is returning to PlayStation later this 12 months within the type of a model new title referred to as Dr. Fetus’ Imply Meat Machine!
Meat Boy has had sufficient video games (for now). Now it’s time for Dr. Fetus to be a star. Dr. Fetus’ Imply Meat Machine takes place proper after the occasions of Tremendous Meat Boy Perpetually (proper after the ending, earlier than the submit credit scene, to be actual). Dr. Fetus desires to make clones of Meat Boy and he must weed out all the crappy clones from the gene pool to get pure, excellent, killable Meat Boys. I’m wondering what Dr. Fetus would do with a by no means ending provide of Meat Boys…hmmm…in all probability a query for one more time.
Buzzsaws, lasers, missiles, and different hazards
What this implies in follow is a Puyo Puyo-style match-four puzzler with a singular hardcore twist, courtesy of the nefarious Dr. Fetus’ devious contraptions. As you’re making an attempt to get your color-coded clones to the underside of the display and construct combos, you’ll need to cope with buzzsaws, missiles and a number of different hazards primed to destroy your clones if you happen to don’t play with the precision that the Tremendous Meat Boy sequence has all the time demanded. In different phrases, what we’re doing with Dr Fetus’ Imply Meat Machine Machine is bringing the hardcore problem Meat Boy is thought for to create a one-of-a-kind mix of puzzle and motion gameplay.
The genesis of this sport lies in a long-lasting relationship between Workforce Meat and our buddies at Headup. We’ve labored collectively for nearly 12 years in varied capacities and we love them. So once they approached us with this concept for a match-four puzzle sport, we had been fairly busy with launching Tremendous Meat Boy Perpetually however after that was out we checked out their pitch and prototype and fell in love over again. We merged their design and programming abilities – primarily Niko Panagiotopoulos and Mark Aldrup – with our artwork and design abilities and now we now have this wickedly enjoyable and delightful puzzle sport that we by no means would have even thought-about making if not for his or her wonderful prototype and need to make one thing new and superior.
It’s time to get pleasure from dying once more
The sport has over 100 hand-crafted ranges full of hazards and traps that can check your puzzle thoughts alongside along with your finger reflexes. It’s a sport within the Meat Boy Universe, so count on to die – time and again. When you have got lastly died sufficient your abilities might be second nature and you’ll begin beating ranges with no extra effort than taking a single, easy breath. You’ll really feel achieved. You’ll really feel…entire. At that time you’ll then need to battle a boss which is able to kill you time and again. You’ll know dying. It’s lots of enjoyable and fairly cute too!
In the event you’re already a fan of Meat Boy, first, thanks and, second, there’s going to be lots in Dr. Fetus’ Imply Meat Machine to please you. We’ve acquired a complete bunch of acquainted Tremendous Meat Boy and Tremendous Meat Boy Perpetually places just like the picturesque Forest, the Hospital, and Salt Manufacturing facility, all with dazzling backgrounds, animations and cutscenes created by the unique Tremendous Meat Boy Perpetually artists. We’ve additionally acquired an unbelievable soundtrack created by the proficient Ridiculon.
It’s been enjoyable to see Meat Boy heading in a brand new path in collaboration with a group who confirmed us a chance for the sequence that had by no means crossed our minds. What’s come out of it’s a sport that exists in a well-recognized style, however on the identical time is like no different sport in that style. The transfer to inject the hardcore meaty DNA of Tremendous Meat Boy right into a match-four puzzler is one which I believe few of you’ll have anticipated (heck, we didn’t count on it when Headup first purchased us the concept!). However belief me, it was a loopy sufficient thought to work and I can’t look ahead to you all to have the ability to attempt to survive Dr. Fetus’ twisted check chambers your self when the sport hits PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 later this 12 months.
