Not well at all.Īnd here I thought PETA had finally learned how to make a fun flash game. We have established that the story is stupid and the overall presentation isn't exactly perfect but the most important thing is how well the game plays. The hand drawn characters as you can clearly see at the top of the page are pretty lame and it is obvious that not much thought went into them. The menus are bare bones and only present the names of each level. Not much else to say in terms of how the game itself looks but it can be said that the menus and hand drawn versions of the characters are not much to be desired. Fetus have been altered slightly to make them look more evil. Actually the sprites look almost identical to those used in Super Meat Boy, except Meat Boy and Dr. It shares the exact same retro style of Super Meat Boy with simplistic 8-bit style backgrounds and sprites. The game's graphical presentation on the other hand is actually pretty good. Oh and by the way, isn't using the exact character names and likenesses an act of copyright infringement? A much better plot that actually took all of two minutes to come up with. So, Fetus kidnaps Bandage Girl and the rest writes itself. The chain catches on to Meat Boy's crusade and hire's Dr. Meat Boy is sad because of all of the animals that were killed in the process of his creation, so to make things right he decides to speak out against (insert restaurant chain here) in an attempt to make a mends. Perhaps I reading too much into this.Īctually, I could come up with a better plot than this that I think PETA would actually approve of: Besides, isn't mocking Meat Boy in a sense mocking the animals that were killed to create him? I mean it isn't his fault that he is what he is. But I guess vanity can be a harsh mistress. I mean to degrade Meat Boy simply because he is literally a piece of Meat is pretty stupid and for Bandage Girl to pity date then dump him for a more handsome character is pretty egotistical on her part. I really must say that this is a really weak, uncreative and ultimately immature bit of parody on PETA's part. Fetus) and is up to Tofu Boy to save her. In a fit of bloody, jealous rage, Meat Boy kidnaps Bandage Girl (A la Dr. The basic plot of the game goes a little something like this, Bandage Girl dumps Meat Boy (because he's ugly and smells bad) for the fit and sexy (PETA's words not mine) Tofu Boy. So let's get on with it shall we? This is Super Tofu Boy: Instead I will simply evaluate this as I would any other game (much like I did with New Super Chick Sisters). When I have decided to write this review, I told myself to take the high road and not go on a huge rant about what I think of PETA's protest policies and idealogy. Really PETA? You couldn't be more creative and go with a less obvious choice?

I don't know if this will help but try Right click the game in Steam and hit properties, then hit Local Files and then click Verify Integrity of Game Files.
Sep 30, 2012:D Okay so it's very simple! If you have windows 7/8 and it crashes then what you need to do is right click SuperMeatBoy.exe, click compatibility, check 'run in compatibility with windows service. The game just says 'Launching' and after some time it says 'Syncing' as if it was closed again. I just tried this myself and it does not work.

First they set their sites on Mario (Super Chick Sisters and New Super Chick Sisters) and Cooking Mama (Mama Kills Animals) and turned them into overly obvious allegories for the evils of the meat industry. The Folks over at PETA are at it once again. So, I have decided to write this review for a game I feel needs a good grilling. I mean considering that this is only supposed to be quick little internet flash game and probably isn't meant to be taken seriously as an actual video game but after spending about an hour with it, I really have to vent my frustration in some manner. I really don't know why I'm even bothering with this one. Opinions by GamesBeat community writers do not necessarily reflect those of the staff. This post has not been edited by the GamesBeat staff.
