  • gameplay
    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with many praising its smooth mechanics, challenging levels, and engaging cutscenes, while others express frustration over issues like the lack of a reset option for levels and occasional performance hiccups. Some players appreciate the game's advancements and aesthetics, but note that it diverges from the original's mechanics, leading to a learning curve that can be frustrating. Overall, while the gameplay is enjoyable and well-crafted, it may not appeal to everyone, particularly those who prefer the original style.

    • “The game got cool cutscenes, nice gameplay, and lots of cool mechanics.”
    • “Its got a fun storyline and the gameplay is challenging but not frustrating.”
    • “Amazing, gameplay it's smooth and just as difficult as the original PC version.”
    • “My one complaint is there's no way to reset a level automatically when doing S-rank attempts. Instead, I have 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.”
    • “I really like the gameplay, but it's terribly infuriating that there isn't a setting to start the level completely over when you die.”
    • “I was hoping to enjoy Super Meat Boy on the phone, but it actually quite sucks due to the lack of tutorials based on the new horrendous punching mechanic. It doesn't teach you much about the differences between dive hits and slide hits, making me stuck on a level for 5 minutes because I didn't realize I was doing a dive punch, which wasn't even implemented. Even for 90p, if you barely have a short temper, this game is really going to frustrate you.”
