It’s kind of sad how Edmund doesn’t even have the rights to the massive indie icon that he created
Well, he did leave the ip to Tommy himself, nobody took it from him
@@mr.sentryanddispenserat most that is a mistake and Edmund did go on to make another very good platformer called " The end is nigh "
But he is the one that abandoned meatboy.

Ridiculon have worked on Meat Boy before. They did the music for the 2015 soundtrack. Plus, making a spinoff in a different genre happens, like, all the time?
@@jedisalsohere It's the timing, they're always doing the same thing just one step behind Edmund. Really feels like they're just chasing his coattails. Now obviously that's not empirical evidence, it's just the vibe a lot of people get.
It's a clear-cut speculation; no evidence. That said, adding _"empirical"_ to it really makes me chuckle.
Yeah I'm just making a cheeky comment, who really knows if Tommy is having Team Meat write notes on whatever Ed is doing.
Guess we'll see if Meat boy suddenly turns into an isometric tatic game, because they've apparently won't be making any more platformers with the IP.
Super meat boy is like that one ex that you glance at one every year and then you see them working at a sweatshop.
And Isaac is like her VERY RICH brother while Gish and Ash are the siblings that where locked up in the basement for 20 years since childhood like that one simpsons episode…
I guess Fingered and Tri-achnid is chilling
You guys lead some crazy lifes
and then the c word game (im just gonna say blue baby/ ???) is that one cousin that tries "borrowing" some money
This comment is so poorly written
The End Is Nigh is the only meat boy sequel in my mind
It’s even better than meatboy tbh imo
@@mikhail6920it's a sequel after all, an upgraded version of SMB, so it propably should be better than SMB. And it's actually made by Edmund.
@@plantplayer303 it’s more like a spiritual successor, ash moves way more differently compared to meatboy. I love both games tho for different reasons however the end is nigh probably one of the best platformers ever made tbh.
@@mikhail6920 I do wish we had multiple characters for TEiN referencing Edmunds other games as a reward by collecting the cartridges (like Spewer, Gish etc) but i love the game anyways so I’m not too worried about it.

The squirrel is literally just a short gag in the first game that gets reused and made into a whole damn subplot in Forever for absolutely no reason.
It's basically them saying "hey guys hey look remember this funny moment? Nostalgia, wow so cool right"
It's sad and pathetic.
And btw they do the same thing over and over again throughout the game.
They bring back the Poop (meat boy) guy.
And Dr foetus throws the middle finger twice as much. They killed his running gag.

I'm honestly surprised you didn't mention The End is Nigh at all. It's the true spiritual successor to Super Meat Boy by Edmund McMillen himself and came out in 2017. Ed himself thinks it's criminally overlooked and one of his best games.
I played that one when it came out, and its really what got me into precision platformers in the first place!
planning to buy it personally
Best of all, the main character was voiced by internet-superstar Rich "Dick the Birthday Boy" Evans.
Oh god that game got Massively overlooked, especially one year after 2017. Celeste just came right out of existence
that one just got its necked snapped by Celeste and Hollow Knight if we're talking about sweaty platformers.
I've got a feeling that they came up with the title for Dr Fetus's Mean Meat Machine and they made it under the pretense that "we wanna make a game with this title cause it's a funny reference" and nothing more
“Oh wow, remember Dr Robotnik’s mean bean machine? Remember that? We made our own version and we referenced it in the title! What a funny reference! We’re totally not desperate or anything!”

@@Cubeytheawesome HOW. DO. YOU. DO. FELLOW. 90's. GAMERS.
-schaffrilas, probably.
There's a reason "100% the game!" Is a different achievement than the boy achievements.
The original Super Meat Boy should genuinely be considered an absolute classic by now. I played it sooooo much on a crappy laptop with no controller as a kid, and I still get its music stuck in my head from time to time. I hope the series makes a _real_ comeback someday, because it deserves a spot on the pantheon of platformers.
as someone who loved super meat boy and bought forever on launch day...im re-experiencing the heartbreak all over again.
meat boy cant even have a legacy in tboi four souls anymore, because team meat refused to lend edmund the ip...it makes me sad
I feel you man…
well thats not true actually, during requium some one asked if he could do meat boy, to which he said something along the lines of "no I cannot" than the meat boy twitter responded with "hey we would love to to a cross over :D" or something... it was really awkward to see ngl
@@KirbySmasher48 huh, i dont remember this interaction. i couldve swore he reached out due to fan demand but nothing came of it. my guess is the meat boy social media manager was expressing excitement at the idea but tommy wasnt down?
You should try The End Is Nigh. It's not a sequel but it was made by the same dude and while its certainly a different vibe, its certainly more faithful than Super Meatboy Forever
@@Whispitt oh i love the end is nigh. great game that doesnt get enough love
Remember, The End is Night is the true secuel to super meat boy
33:38 one fun fact about Mewgenics is, that it originally started as a Team Meat project and may even have been responsible for Forever taking so long. McMillen eventually secured the rights in 2018 and continued development with Tyler Glaiel with whom he had previously worked on The End is Nigh.

@@saif_mpgs What
an actual sequel with the forever artstyle and hand-made levels would go hard, but oh well, good video!
But that may or may not come out in a very long time. But a man can dream....
...Using Trello and just yapping about SMBF Chapter titles had it not stray into an autoscroller.
the biggest misconception surrounding Forever is that it's a mobile autorunner. It's not :) The levels consist of _hand-crafted_ segments, which are put in random order (for each save). The levels are just like in the original game, and there also exists worlds and dark levels for each world, and the whole thing plays like a story campaign with bosses included. The only thing is that Meat Boy auto-runs to the right so you can't control his movement, but the levels fully embrace this and are ingeniously crafted around that. The marketing for this game seems to have been lacking and the word-of-mouth wasn't positive, so a lot of people have a negative thoughts about Forever without even trying it -- including me, before I got it for cheap and had the blast of my life :)
Its a real shame for super meatboy forever, if only they kept they the original mechanic from the first game and make you run around and kept the punching and sliding mechanic and the level design was like the original game, maybe it could have been at least decent
but the auto runner gameplay isn't even really that bad, I've played all of the first world and some dark levels and it's pretty fun
it just loses everything with the automatic level generation that takes away everything good
Honestly, considering that it's an auto runner, shouldn't there be moves where u can get to manipulate on where you will go and being able to stop and slow down? Maybe if moves like those exist in that Forever game besides "A" and down button, the game would probably be liked more like super meat boy.
@@iconica9516 Heres the thing. Unless Meat Boy series is a Autosvroller game in the first place that would be fine.
But it's not. It's already established that the series is a 2D hardcore platformer game not an autoscroller. Changing the fundenmental of what makes Meat boy Meat boy will not sit well with the vets and the newcomers that thing SMbF is a 2d platformer.
@@redactedgamersgd1788 counter point, mario 64, galaxy 1 and 2, and odyssey
these are all 3D versions of a usual 2D platformer game that are loved by many
they changed the formula and people love them
they don't love SMBF not because it's an auto runner, but because they did it wrong
auto generated levels made some levels feel jank and weird, it just lacked so much charm in the actual gameplay that made the auto runner idea feel like the main cause, when it was just poor game design
like I said before, I've played SMBF and I enjoyed it almost as much as base SMB, it just lacked the care that regular SMB had in its level design that made it lack in some parts of game design
levels end up being very unfun and feel impossible, the bandages end up being more of a chore instead of a challenge, ans it just sucks
@@iconica9516 the auto level generation isn't truly random. They consist of hand-crafted segments that are put in random order, so you can re-experience the game in a "fresh" manner. That's why the level design still is so amazing in Forever -- it's not procedurally generated, it's all carefully designed ;)
The lesson: don't add forever to your videogame sequel name

The funniest part of when you were comparing Puyo Puyo to Tetris was the fact that you were playing Puyo Puyo in PuyoPuyo Tetris, a game that comes with Tetris, but you use Tetris footage from a flash game
Honestly, I think Mean Meat Machine was made because someone thought of the title and then based the game around it which tied it to Puyo Puyo and to try and make it unique they threw in obstacles.
fun fact: before steve got his name he was called mr. minecraft they later on called him steve because of his appearance in smb!

Super meat boy forever is a spinoff and I'm tired of pretending that it's not
Nah. at least story wise it's more then enough though yeah it could've been better.
Super meat boy is great! I’m so glad that it was a single game and didn’t have any sequels!
Who's going to tell him?
It did have a sequel! it's called "the end is nigh"
apart from the art style, Forever is a worthy sequel if you embrace the new control scheme. It's NOT a traditional auto-runner, which the marketing had you and me believe. Meat Boy auto-runs to the right yes, but the game consists of actual levels, worlds, bosses and characters and secrets, and tons of stuff, and it's super hard and challenging, and rewarding :) the levels consist of hand-crafted segments, but their order is random, that is all. Try it out next time it goes on sale for $1, you won't regret it :)
For some time i thought that super meatboy forever was a remake of super meatboy. Then i found out that it was an autorunner sequel.
I remember thinking the same thing, interestingly.
i was under the same impression, until i finally got to _try_ Forever. It's NOT a mobile auto-runner. There are actual levels, worlds, bosses, and even characters. The levels consist of _hand-crafted_ segments, and the only thing is that the _order_ of those segments is random (for each save), and that Meat Boy auto-runs to the right, but that mechanism is fully embraced and the level design is geniusly crafted around it 😇 give it a try next time it goes on sale for $1 :)
Honestly, if you want a good sequel for Super Meat Boy just play The End Is Nigh (also created by Edmund)
Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine is such an obscure reference to make, no one under the age of 25 is even gunna get that and that's only cause they released it as part of a Sonic collection for the PS2, otherwise that age jumps up to to 35-40. They shoulda just ripped off Candy Crush instead tbh.
additional note: while meat boy forever was indeed in a timed exclusive deal with epic games, it still released on switch at the same day as it did on epic, likely because it was featured in an indie world direct. playstation, xbox, and especially steam still had to wait an entire year
love the thought process behind the sequels and spinoffs
"but what if he could PUNCH?? also no controls lmfao"
thing is, they FULLY embrace those new controls and the level design is geniusly crafted around them, and it's such a satisfying experience once you get to try it. Have not enjoyed a game so intensely in a looong time, and I was a die-hard original Super Meat Boy fan :)
@@zainmushtaq4347 why are you shilling the game under literally every comment
@@bootsowen686 it's gotta be Tommy's bot lol
@@bootsowen686 swear to god this guy has literally shilled in like 40 comment replies, it must be some new astroturfing bot marketing campaign or some shit.
I still have no clue why they invested nearly 10 years into SMBF’s development. The premise of a Meat Boy mobile auto-runner spin-off was reasonable in 2013, but to grind that concept out into the mainline sequel is bizarre. I have a bad feeling Meat Boy’s future is going to look like a bunch of spin-offs under the guise of continuity.
It’s like megamind vs the doom syndicate.
Unessecary sequel that we wanted, but quickly regretted once we got it, and they hyped it up because they all thought that’s what we wanted.
once you realize that Forever is NOT your traditional mobile auto-runner, but an actuall full-fledged game with levels and worlds and bosses and extra, and that the level design _is_ hand-crafted and super witty and hard and rewarding (only the order of segments is random), you'll realize it's worthy of being a sequel (but the art style isn't the best 😅).
Super Meat Boy, VVVVVV and Shovel Knight the grandfather of 2D Platformer Indie video games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I miss VVVVVV. I remember when it was still just a small flash game proof of concept on Kongregate.
Cave Story too.
@@Allen-jj7vv That's like the great-great-great grandfather of indie games. I love Cave Story but jesus is it hard.
“grandparents?” all of those games are from the 2010s lmao
Spelunky (2008), Braid (2008), cave story (2004), N+ 2005), Alien Hominid (2002), Shantae(1998), there were so many indie platformers that came out before those. The Shantae devs even went on to found Yacht Club.
Man I only heard about the sequel once and didn’t ever hear about it ever again
It’s just crazy how this game was once a phenomenon then dissipated
Forever is a great game, it's just that the marketing had you and me believe otherwise. Give it a try once you get the chance :)
Funniest thing is that Forever took like FOUR YEARS after its initial release before it was even available on mobile. The device it was originally designed for.
I remember playing the demo at pax 2014 I was so excited and when Tommy handed me that IPad,then I was so disappointed, but he was right next to be watching me play so I just said I loved it. That’s a core memory for 14 year old me.
You should've asked him "Is this an out-of-season April fools joke?"
Super Meat Boy is still one of my favorite 2D platforms ever.
It’s truly sad it never got the sequel it deserved.
Even though my controller and my nerves will hate if it’s similar, but in the end it would be worth it.
My favorite part still is the music. Especially themes like Battle of Lil Slugger, Salt Factory or C.H.A.Ds Lullaby.
i used to think the same and utterly hated Forever in every way, UNTIL i grabbed it for $2 on the eshop, and it was the MOST ENJOYABLE gaming experience i had in years. The game was nothing like what I thought an "auto-runner" would be, and that's because it really isn't a mobile auto-runner. There are actual levels, worlds, and levels consist of hand-crafted, wittily designed segments (that are in random order), and Meat Boy auto-runs to right. But that mechanism is fully embraced and everything is designed around it for fast-paced action-packed hair-pulling super challenging and super rewarding experience. Go give it a try next time it's on sale for $1-2, and I promise your controllers will fear for their lives ;)
I really like your editing, it's packed to brim yet not overedited. You're one of my most favourite fast-paced channels to watch
I’m so glad you’ve given more love to Forever’s art style! I have the development art book for the game and it is incredibly fun to flick through
The original Super Meat Boy is legitimately one of my favorite games of all time for its precise controls, its great level design and that INCREDIBLE soundtrack. Forever has NONE of those things, it's Meat Boy in name only. It's a shame that, with Edmund and Danny B gone, we'll probably never get a real Meat Boy sequel.
apart from the new soundtrack, Forever has AMAZING level design. I was blown away by how witty, how genius and how super hard and yet super rewarding the _whole_ game was. I used to be like you, utterly hating on Forever as a die-hard SMB fan, but once I got to try out forever for cheap on my switch, 30 hours went by just like that in a month and I had a blast completing the main game. There are actual levels in forever, and they consist of hand-crafted segments, but they're in random order is all. And Meat Boy auto-running to the right is fully embraced and the level design is carefully crafted to leverage that and introduce new elements that make it an intense experience. Up for the challenge? ;)
The End is Nigh is really the true perfect spiritual sequel to Super Meat Boy. SMBF was a huge letdown, but honestly, TEIN is my favorite platformer *ever*, even over the original SMB- It’s criminally underrated and I hope it gets more attention in the future.
In short:
*_Meatboy has joined RayMan on the "Lost Icons" bench_*
hurts my soul to see "Outer wilds" in the list of backlog games, you should definitely platy it. Also love the vid :)
I remember seeing this game called “Bird Tapper” that’s basically a good version of SMB Forever. Kinda cool.

Hey atleast we got the end is nigh imo that game is even better than the og meatboy
As someone who has participated in the community since 2018 and been creating custom levels for Super Meat Boy, I agree with some points.
The one thing that I usually hear when talking to other people about Super Meat Boy is that nobody has made a proper sequel or at least a proper spiritual successor to the actual game (I mean this in gameplay). I know that TEIN exists, but we're talking 1:1 or pretty close to 1:1. The closest I've been able to suggest in terms of more Super Meat Boy is custom levels, but that only goes so far and usually can't improve on core mechanics to provide a better experience. There is a mod that's being worked on called "Super Meat Boy: Revamped", which I hope will bring more people into the game and hopefully into the modding/level editing scene.
While Super Meat Boy is an excellent game, it has some issues that need fixing. The game can be very buggy at times and some levels like in Dark Cotton Alley aren't very fun to play.
However, in terms of Super Meat Boy Forever.
Super Meat Boy Forever isn't exactly the sequel I would like from a Super Meat Boy game. While yes, they can technically do whatever they want with it, it's such a stark difference from its predecessor that if it were to actually improve on anything, that it still wouldn't matter very much. The fact that it's so divergent will alienate people who played the original. I wouldn't say that Super Meat Boy Forever is exactly a bad game, in fact, I'd say it's okay. There's some things that I didn't like about it, but somethings that I did. I'll list off some of things that weren't already said in the video or that I disagree with. But most of it is positive stuff.
Some of the references in the level names are cool, "Didn't Wet The Sponge" or "V Will Come" are very cool, even if it's something very minor.
Some of the gimmicks can be very interesting if used correctly. I haven't played the game in ages, but I'm sure there was a level where if you jumped, you'd be running on the ceiling instead. Kind of like VVVVVV.
Dark Tetanus was one of the best chapters in the entire game, it was probably the only thing I played more than once that wasn't required for completion. The crates are super satisfying to use too.
Something that I did notice is that you never actually mentioned Tofu Boy in Meat Boy Forever. While I never played as him or got that far, I do know that he's the only character in the game who has different statistics, even if they don't help you very much.
While I didn't experiment with the level editor in Forever as much as the Super Meat Boy one, I appreciate that everything is available to use instead of having it restricted to a certain palette.
The Dark World levels are visually interesting. Instead of having a silhouette every two levels, you can now have a noir level or a gradient level. While you could technically go and do this kind of stuff in the original Super Meat Boy, it was never done officially in game and it wasn't to this scale.
Mean Meat Machine though, is pretty bad in my opinion, and is something I wouldn't want to play again. The fact that you are punished really hard for something that would've been better if you just lost that puyo is actually infuriating. I only went up to the Hospital before calling it quits. I got bored and it was just... not very good. I love Puyo Puyo, I like puzzle games, but Mean Meat Machine isn't it. IMO, this is my least favorite Meat Boy game, excluding Tofu Boy.
I probably screwed up somewhere along these lines, maybe I said something that I shouldn't have or have messed up what I should've said. I just wanted to get my thoughts out on this subject.
Good video Foekoe really feels like your normal videos but just super duper long which is very epic thank you

Hey, glad you’re back Foekoe! But yeah… what happened to Super Meat Boy’s legacy is tragic… from Edmund or Danny B not being involved. The first initial game was fantastic… the ost, the gameplay, everything about it screamed personality… then he left the team and the rights and all hope was lost.
So will Super Meat Boy make a come back…? It’s less likely now… but we can only hope.
Note to self: never make a game with the subtitle ‘forever’.
i know alot of people have said this but you should really try his spiritual successor the end is nigh, its clear that you have heard of it but IMO its probably one of the best designed platformers I've ever played, admitidelty there are no alternate characters like SMB but its still really fun, the music is amazing and as simple as the story its interesting too see and try and figure out what it means... although most of the community for The end is nigh already knows...
I played both of the meatboy games and I am really confused by the autorunner implemation in the sequal. The original was focused on your creativity with the slipery movement you got and thats just gone in the sequal. I still liked some of the boss fights,but I was lack luster in the grand scheme of things becasue the levels felt bland after a while. Since they had a lot of reused things from other levels.
i have to politely disagree. Each world introduced a new element and got progressively harder, while also being beatable enough for a satisfying reward experience. And the new control mechanism in Forever were fully embraced in the level design and gameplay, so while they were different from SMB, they still offer depth of their own. Forever is just more fast-paced bc of that, and that may not be your taste if you liked the slowness and careful platforming of the original game, and that's okay. To me, the fast-paced nature better suited my taste :)
I love your long form videos so much dude
Edmund did The end is nigh. Now THAT is a fantastic meatboy-style game.
I LOVED the original Super Meat Boy and I played it to completion (as well as most of the Bandage Girl levels) but when I saw Super Meat Boy Forever it just kind of made me sad in the same way that Subnautica Below Zero made me sad because the original is so good (except it wasn’t as bad with SMB bc Subnautica is literally my favorite game ever while Super Meat Boy is just a fun indie game I enjoy)
i used to think the exact same as you, having grown up with Super Meat Boy and wanting to defend it at every chance. But then it went on sale for $2 last year on the eshop, and I caved in just for fun, and the game turned out to be the best gaming experience I've had in years. The art style isn't my style, and the auto-running got a bit getting used to, but once I got into the groove, it was the most rewarding 30 hours in a long time last summer :)
@@zainmushtaq4347 I played it and did not like it lol but maybe that’s just me
It is the return of the king.
Nice to see a main channel video
You kinda sound like narrator of battle block theater and i love it
Will you %100 achivement Rain world? I got curious and checked your Stream profile only to realize Rain world's achivements is missing
Is it grindy or somethin? I am not a achivement grinder so I have no idea how difficult/tedious that is
I forgot you existed
Ngl, i kinda love the squirrel storyline just becuase it is the perfect mix of Dumb and cool
I grew up with Super Meat Boy, TBOI grew me up.
I've said this a million times to my friends: almost every single mechanic introduced in SMBF could've worked without the game being an auto-runner.
the auto-running took some time getting used to, but once i embraced it, it was a fantastic experience. As someone who hates precision in platforming, the auto-running guaranteed that i got the same results each time, making the game slightly easier to control, but with the level design fully embracing the new controls and still offering an intense gaming experience that was super satisfying once i beat it :)
@@zainmushtaq4347 I simply disagree
11:42 Oh cmon IWBTG is not that bad
I second this.
4:54 why is advanced warfare catching strays? that game is underrated af
Its so fun
I remember playing Super Meatboy went it first cam out on the xbox 360 , i was 5 at the time and i really loved it, I still remember how i raged at a lot of the levels that it had ,now a days i still think of it and seen videos about it here and their but I had no idea that it release 2 more game that were mixed in reviews, it is pretty sad to see the Meatboy franchise like this i still think it has a lot of potential for a second (not counting forever since it was originally a mobile game) Meatboy game to work.
pls give Forever a try. It's still a super hard game, just more fast-paced and slightly different in controls. There are actual levels, worlds, secrets, characters to unlock, boss fights, a story, etc. Nothing like traditional mobile auto-runners, which I also thought for years until I finally got to try the game. The great thing about Forever is that since Meat Boy is always auto-running to the right, once you die, you instantly respawn and start running automatically, so the action is non-stop and super rewarding once you finally beat a level :D
There are fates worse than death...
Great quote bobo
People need to stop shitting on the current team because "THEY STOLE MEAT BOY FROM EDMUND!!!!" Edmund chose to leave knowing he'd lose the rights to Meat Boy, this is not a Skullgirls situation. If you truly care about Edmund, you shouldn't be using him as an excuse to harass people that did nothing wrong other than making games you dislike.
6:41 I farted exactly as the same time as the sound effect, just letting you know
I heard that brief snippet of Hill when you talked about the evil clone Meat Boy lmao.
its kinda sad how the face of indie games the reason why we such some awesome indie games that are better than AAA games is now dead
and also there's another reason why super meat boy forever failed
the reason is that in the original super meat boy in the credits we could see that edmund was the artist and the MAIN level designer, tommy was the programmer and the level designer but tommy was less important because he wasn't the MAIN designer and, because edmund left team meat tommy is now alone he has less skill than edmund in level designing snd that's why the level design in super meat boy forever is kinda bare-bones
edmund now is "the isaac guy" and although i like isaac more than meat boy its kinda sad how meat boy is kinda... left alone in a bad sequel...
yeah tommy got handed such a big ip i can't even blame him for failing to handling it, the genius of edmund is unmatched
@@ItHamBoi i wish if edmund can release isaac and meatboy games in the same time
i was blown away by the incredibly witty and satisfying level design in Forever, to my own surprise. I went in expecting a hollow mobile spin-off, but got one of the most enjoyable gaming experiences in years :)
Tbh I kinda like Forever. Yeah, it's got a ton of issues, very little soul and it's certainly no masterpiece like the original, but I still had fun playing it through and through and feel its well worth the cost considering it often goes for 90% off on steam for a couple bucks. The real SMB sequel is still truly The End is Nigh though.
as a former die-hard SMB fan that utterly hated Forever bc of ppl saying it was a mobile auto-runner, once I got it for $1-2 on eshop last year, I can honestly say I've not this much fun in YEARS in gaming. I dare even say that it was _more_ fun that the original SMB, just bc I love fast-paced games, and the level design in Forever was soo satisfying, challening, witty and rewarding and perfect for playing handheld on the switch. I also got to try Celeste before that having heard a lot of great stuff about it, but it just didn't click with me.
Nice, never actually expected a meat boy video but was kinda hoping for one at some point ngl
Says something how I have had Meat Boy shape me into the person I am now since I was 8 and I've only played Forever once in my life, completed 1 world and never touched it again
2:05 you mean bloatware that, ironically, makes it eat RAM almost like Chrome?
all chromium browsers do that
