More information about Super Meat Boy for mobile

Team Meat has come out to give a few more details on what exactly the touch version of Super Meat Boy, their incredible challenging platformer for XBLA, will entail if it comes to life. We say ‘if’ it comes to life mainly because if Team Meat isn’t happy with the results, they will scrap it and move on.

In a series of six rather quick tweets, Team Meat let it be known that the touch version of Super Meat Boy will not be a direct port from the console version. This will probably make a lot of people happy considering the game is ridiculously difficult as it is with a full controller. So what will this mobile version be?

“It won’t be a simple game like “doodle jump” it will be a larger more traditional game…if you liked SMB I’m sure you will enjoy this (if it’s good enough to continue on)” – Team Meat

According to Team Meat, the mobile version will be a re-envisioning of the game onto mobile devices which they are developing from scratch. This means the gameplay will suit the controls that will work well with touch screens. We can also expect it to retain its difficulty level but just geared towards mobile play. However, if the game doesn’t turn out the way they want it to, they will scrap the entire thing which is a bold move considering the work that goes into making a game, even a mobile one.

Right now the game is currently being developed and prototyped for mobile play.
