"Super Dash! Pill Popper"- RunMan's description.
RunMan is an unlockable guest character in Super Meat Boy, exclusive to the PC versions of the game.
General information[]
Appearance[]
RunMan is a yellow humanoid creature in the shape of a rounded star.
Origin[]
RunMan originates from the RunMan series, starting with RunMan's Monster Fracas and most famously appearing in RunMan: Race Around the World.
Gameplay[]
RunMan can run extremely fast, and even faster when holding down the run button. But, unlike his own game, he doesn't automatically bounce (or ricochet) off walls while holding Shift. RunMan is one of the characters that has an equivalent character on the XBLA version, The Ninja. While both of them have a Super Dash or Star Dive for RunMan, RunMan doesn't receive the special aerial and running attributes The Ninja gets, but Runman has his own: by Dash Jumping. This occurs when RunMan Star Dives and jumps at the same time, and the jump spans incredible lengths. RunMan is also one of the few characters that conserves characteristics from his games: he keeps his trails when he dashes. It can also be noted that RunMan has many similarities to Starfy (from the Legendary Starfy series). When you finish the level with RunMan, a cloud with the text: "OH SNAP!" will appear over RunMan. If he is facing right, the cloud will be flipped horizontally.
How To Unlock[]
He can be unlocked with 70 bandages in the PC version.
Abilities[]
- Highly Fast: RunMan is one of the fastest characters in Super Meat Boy.
- Star Dive: This gives RunMan the ability to dash mid-air for a short period of time.
