Of course, by enter I don’t mean…enter, but since this is a game by Edmund McMillien (creator ofC*nt), anything’s possible. How these guys will be implemented remains to be seen, but what we do know for sure is thatAlien Hominid(fromAlien HominidandCastle Crashers) andCommander Video(fromBit.Trip Beatand the upcomingBit.Trip Core) will join Tim (fromBraid) as playable guest characters inSuper Meat Boy; the super WiiWare upgrade of last year’s Newgrounds hitMeat Boy. Also announced is the method for unlocking these little bastards. All ofSuper Meat Boy‘s guest stars will be unlocked by finding warp zones that lead to secret levels based on their games. These levels will be super hard, and involve play mechanics unlike those found in the rest of the game.

Awesome.

For those keeping score, there are still approximately nine indie guest stars yet to be announced forSuper Meat Boy. I can’t think of three bigger names in indie gaming than Tim, Hominid and Commander Video. Any guesses as to who’s going to show up next?
