Level Design

Super Meat Boy

Level 3

The idea behind this level was to force the player to navigate across the same areas multiple times but in different ways by using keys and gates.

To get to the second area on the left of the level the player must collect 2 keys. The first of which is placed at the end of the lock blocks it removes, while the second is found above behind a large saw. Access to the second key is restricted as the player must wall jump from the left hand side, but if they do not do it before the locks are removed they cannot make the jump. They could of course get that key first.

The second area includes some tight jumps between saws, both on the way up and the way down. Upon reaching the key at the top of the level access to the lower section is granted. To get there the player must first work his way down from the top, then jump around the large saw before grabbing onto the key platform. A small wall jump, followed by a last long jump across the middle area will end the level.
