There’s nothing random about Super Meat Boy‘s highly regimented gauntlet of intricate murder machines and carefully measured series of gaps. However, the challenging platformer’s latest Steam update has thrown a bit of chance into the mix: Players can now “Enter the Unknown” via the game’s main menu, which creates a full 20-level chapter for them to play through using a random selection of levels picked from the Super Meat World portal.
The update also adds a chapter recommendation feature, as well as a new navigation option that lets you rank levels based on their fun or difficulty — two metrics which players can vote on after playing through a chapter. We think these two features will dovetail quite nicely considering our auspicious lack of skill at Super Meat Boy, as we’ve always wanted recommendations for the title’s least soul-crushing levels.
