First, let me let you know, that I know, that I am a little crazy. I am not particularly masochistic when it comes to video games. I don't often go above the normal difficulty, and GOD forbid Very Hard! but I have a weird habit when it comes to these types of games. My freshman year of College I picked up the original N (the ninja game) on my Mac Book and before Summer vacation, I 100%ed it. Was it fun? I can't remember, but I know that I HAD to beat it.  
 
I thought I kicked the habit. I never wanted to be the guy. I restrained myself from buying N+, but now I have a new vice. Super Meat Boy.  I've relapsed and hot DAMN does it feel good.  
 
So here I am, 4 days and I thought I jot down my progress and thoughts on the journey so far. Before I get started, know that I am playing this game like a crazy person. The guys mentioned on the podcast that you need to let go and leave some things behind. You need to leave a few bandages behind, not make the A+ time on some levels. Maybe even miss a WAAAAAARP ZOOOOOONE or two.  I Unfortunately don't have it in me to do that. I wish I could, but even now when I'm simply thinking of it I'm gritting my teeth and my vision is getting a little fuzzy. I am slowly truckin' my way through this game, for better or for worse. So here we go. 
 

• Chapter 1: 100% complete. I wish I could tell you a little more about the dark levels, but when I look back I just remember a lot of high pitch screams and a lot of flailing. 
• 1-5x Creamsoda: If you have 19/20 bandages, chances are this is your last one. HOURS went into looking for this bandage and I stumbled upon it on accident. 
• Chapter 2: I'm 100% with ONLY the light world. I have 11 bandages and 3 warps. For some reason it says 13 bandages. Anyone know why?
• Warp Zone: Blood Shed. it sucks sooo bad when all you want are bandages. 
• 2-16: SNYJ is the only level so far that I've had trouble with getting the bandage and getting the time so far. Let it be known that I hate propellers.
• 2-18: Destructoid's bandage can eat a dick. It took me forever to find the secret passage and when I did I felt like an idiot. Did feel all super spy when I got it though. 
• 2-12: Above. If this trickery is what is in store for the rest of the game, I think I may have an aneurism. That warp zone wasn't a piece of cake either.
• That second boss fight was pretty funny
• I played 2 levels of "TEH INTERNETS" and now I see why that's optional
• Unlocked Gish and Alien Hominid with the Bandages so far. Gish seems super useful while AH seems like he's only in there cause HEY NEWGROUNDS
