As Team Meat co-founder Edmund McMillen has stated, "we have been playing with the idea of porting SMB on the iphone for some time," but over the weekend he confirmed Super Meat Boy: The Game for iOS devices is now fully in the works.
Initially, it was the team's intent to simply port the game over to the platform, but they found the game didn't translate to the system's touch screen well enough.
"So, we decided to totally remake the whole game instead, from the ground up," McMillen said.
Just what's in store for the game in terms of controls? We'll have to wait and see, as McMillen says Team Meat have just begun work on the new game. Here are some things we can expect, though (from McMillen's blog):
What the game is:
- A feature length touch controlled platformer SPECIFICALLY designed for Touch devices.
What the game isn't:
- a shitty port of an existing game with non tactile buttons spread all over the screen blocking the players view and making for frustrating controls.
- the Super Meat Boy you're used to, there are aspects of Super Meat Boy in there, obviously, but this is a brand new game with new art, new sound, everything.
