Team Meat Working On New IP Rather Than Super Meat Boy 2
Despite the fact that Edmund McMillen and Tommy Refenes's Super Meat Boy is earning rave reviews and is most likely selling well on Xbox Live Arcade when combined with its launch discount, Team Meat is not going to follow it up with a sequel.
In an interview with Eurogamer, McMillen had the following to say:
"There will be another game but it won't be Meat Boy. It'll be totally new."
"We'd be lying if we said we hadn't talked about the next game – because we very much have. But thinking about it right now makes me want to stab myself in the stomach as hard as I can. With a gun."
Check out Eurogamer for more insight on the apparently hellish development process, or stay here to see our enthusiastic review of the game.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
