Development on the new Super Meat Boy game for iOS devices has been 'officially' put on hold to make way for Team Meat's new project, Mew-Genics. Team Meat co-founder Edmund McMillen said that the studio has "decided to officially pause work on the next Super Meat Boy and remake Mew-Genics outside of flash, making it our new full time project". McMillen clarified to Joystiq that the 'new Super Meat Boy' in question was the iOS entry which, he went on to reiterate, is not a port but a "completely new Super Meat Boy game". "It's on hold 'til Mew-Genics is done," he said. The developer is yet to fully unveil Mew-Genics, but McMillen has described it as the "strangest game [he has] ever worked on," and revealed that "the game will be randomly generated, strange and involve cats." In a recent update, McMillen said, "We are currently about 18 weeks into development, we have a ways to go due to the games features, items, cats, characters, missions, etc. ballooning bigger and bigger as the days pass by, but we are both quite happy with this little monster and think you guys will really dig what we have planned."

Si esperabas la versión para iOs de Super Meat Boy, puedes seguir esperando porque Team Meat acaba de poner el desarrollo de dicha versión “en pausa” mientras trabajan en su nuevo título, Mew-Genics.

Según explica Edmund McMillen, Cofundador del studio, que el quipo ha “decidido, oficialmente, pausar el trabajo en el próximo Super Meat Boy y rehacer Mew-Genics, convirtiéndolo en nuestro nuevo proyecto a tiempo completo.”

Y para que no se emocionen mucho, ese “próximo Super Meat Boy” era la versión móvil del juego que sería, eso sí, “un juego de Super Meat Boy totalmente nuevo.”

Pero no se pongan a llorar, ya que McMillen especifica que cuando terminen de trabajar en Mew-Genics, volverán a trabajar en esta nueva versión de Super Meat Boy. El tiempo de desarrollo, esperan, será de 18 semanas.
