Super Meat Boy is planned for release sometime relatively soon onto both the PC and, more excitedly, Nintendo’s WiiWare service. As many propably already know, SMB is a hugely anticipated game for the indie scene, up there with the likes of Braid and World of Goo before it. Unfortunately, it’s not actually available to play yet so we are left here, alone, twiddling our thumbs in a derisively Meat Boy-less life… or are we?

For those who absolutely can’t wait to get there hands on Super Meat Boy there’s actually something out there that should hold you over pretty well. I am, of course, talking about the prequel flash game: Meat Boy. Yep, that’s right, a little over a year ago the same developers making Super Meat Boy created and released Meat Boy on NewGrounds flash game portal and it can be played by anybody who wanders over there.

So what are you waiting for? Go get your Meat Boy on and start honing those skills for when the real deal drops a little later this year.
