I just downloaded the demo the other day, it is pretty fun. I'll probably buy the full game. I know I am just looking to get frustrated, tho.

I just have one stage to go on this game. It's the Skyscraper warp zone, which is actually more difficult than The Kid.

Well, at 307 completed stages (not counting the glitch stages, that I have also beaten), I owe it to myself to complete these last ones.

I'll just chime in here, but the only "problem" I have with the game is the xbox controller, otherwise this game is just thumb numbing goodness.

Good job man. I don't know if I'll ever quite make it through this game.

Thanks. The game is really brutal. Just by completing the 310 stages I jumped to position 300-something on the leaderboards. And you have to consider the fact that there are many glitched times on the leaderboards (they'll probably wipe the impossible times in the next update). So, you see, of tens of thousands of people who bought the game, two months in and very few have completed it.

I'll say, however, it was totally worth it. All characters have something unique that makes playing with them really fun. Stages are well thought out and even cutscenes are cute. I laughed my ass off with the Pokémon parody on the beginning of The End.

Anyway, it's quite hard, but I'd say you should hang in there.

Another tough platformer game that you should try if you like the feel of Super Meat Boy's controls is Give Up Robot 2. It's by the same guy that made RunMan: Race Around the World, which was also a really good high-speed platformer (and a playable bonus character in Super Meatboy).
