Today's Xbox Games Showcase saw the reveal of Super Meat Boy 3D, a new entry in the series that transplants our protein-packed hero into the third dimension. The original Meat Boy was always notable for its art style as much as the brutal challenge, and that's clearly been the challenge here: I like what they've done, even if I'm not quite ready to say I love it.
This feeling wasn't universal in the PCG Slack channel, with some finding the new aesthetic a little too clean and jolly, but I kinda think they've got it right. Meat Boy's trail of blood looks icky and sticky, he moves with the alacrity I associate with the character, and the deaths are just funny. Good thing too because, going by the breakneck pace of this trailer, you're probably going to be dying a lot.
