Dec 12, 2010 The game's modding community has uncovered a 'devmode' within the PC build of Super Meat Boy, giving the keys to the kingdom to anyone willing to. Feature The Binding of Edmund McMillen. Super Meat Boy and Binding of Isaac creator talks blood, guts, genitals, Indie Game: The Movie, and why the Bible influenced his violent streak.
The creators of Super Meat Boy teased their followers with an RPG based on the arm wrestling movie Over the Top, but despite how excited some people were at the prospect of the game, it was all a joke.
The idea that Team Meat would create such a game wasn’t wholly unbelievable to the studio’s fans seeing how the core games the group is known for are centered around a meaty character avoiding deadly obstacles in a struggle against an evil scientist named Dr. Fetus. When Team Meat tweeted to say its actual new game called Super Meat Boy Forever was being wrapped up, it segued that into the strange “announcement” of the Over the Top RPG. People weren’t sure whether to believe it, but many were open to it.
We're wrapping up Super Meat Boy Forever and I'm happy to announce we've acquired the rights to the 1987 movie 'Over the Top'. It will be a RPG. God bless. pic.twitter.com/yGLLap19LB

After checking with Team Meat to make sure there was no truth to the teaser and that fans of the developers and the movie shouldn’t get their hopes up, Super Meat Boy designer and Team Meat co-founder Tommy Refenes confirmed to ComicBook.com that there aren’t any plans to create such a game, though that doesn’t mean he’s not open to it.

“For the record, I think it would be really fun to make an RPG based off that movie,” Refenes said when reached for comment. “The absurdity would be real. Maybe I'll call Warner Brothers after this whole SMBF thing is done!”
0commentsA similar answer was shared as on Twitter as a follow-up to Team Meat’s initial tweets to temper anyone’s expectations if they were hoping for the game to be a reality.
I was lying....we could only get the rights to Blood Debts and it's going to be a cooking game.

Based on the reception I guess I should call Warner Brothers at some point and see if I can actually get the rights. Truthfully I think it'd be hilarious to make an RPG around truck driving and arm wrestling.
