When one is looking for inspiration, it’s always a good idea to aim as high as possible. Whether or not one manages to equal (or even surpass) the piece of art that served as impetus, simply having something amazing to aspire to can lead to great things, especially when developers take bold new directions rather than simply copying everything that worked in the original.
Here's our interview with Tommy Refenes of Team Meat!
In this interview, we discuss everything Super Meat Boy, Tommy's appearance in (the excellent) Indie Game: The Movie, his new game, Mew-Genics, and the act of tessellating someone's face.
Please enjoy this honest, insightful chat with a great developer.
Get ready for an awesome two hours with Edmund McMillen, creator (and co-creator) of some amazing titles over the years, including the recent hits Super Meat Boy and The Binding of Isaac.
