Super Meat Boy PC Getting Mr. Minecraft, Three Songs On Rock Band Network, Soundtrack Remix Contest

Team Meat's crushingly difficult (and insanely fun!) Super Meat Boy launched this week on Xbox Live Arcade to mostly rave reviews. A trio of cool meat-related announcements have been made recently that are sure to please fans.

Though the game is currently only available from Xbox Live Arcade, a PC version is expected to hit Steam sometime next month. Destructoid reports that after some public back-and-forth tweeting with Minecraft creator Notch, Team Meat was given permission to include Mr. Minecraft (the game's protagonist) in the PC version. Mr. Minecraft will join a playable-character roster already jam-packed with appearances from other indie heroes, ranging from the BIT.TRIP. series' Commander Video, to Tim from Braid. Read more »

Super Meat Boy Launching With 33% Discount

Team Meat's 2D platformer Super Meat Boy won't launch at its regular price of 1,200 Microsoft Points ($15) when it arrives on Xbox Live Arcade tomorrow, the indie developer has announced, but with a 33% discount bringing it down to 800MS Points ($10).

"We wanted to be able to do something special for Xmas, but it felt like a sale only 2 months after launch would be a kinda shitty thing to do to the fans who just bought it," Team Meat's Edmund McMillen explains. A sale straight away, though, would work nicely as "a way to reward the fans for buying the game at launch." Read more »
