Alright, I finished Super Meat Boy. The last full-length world is called Rapture and is set after Dr. Fetus starts nuclear war to try and get rid of Meat Boy. I think that, like World 4, it's quite tough but the difficulty is sort of concentrated among a few particular levels. I had a lot of trouble with one where there's an invincible flying guy (he kind of reminds me of the angry sun from Mario 2) who chases you throughout a long level where you need to run back and forth across the full length of the stage gathering keys. The boss is a trio of giant earthworms that you have to bait into leaping from their burrows into saws. It took me a little while to figure out how to get them to kill themselves effectively, but it wasn't too bad after that.

Once Rapture is done with, you move onto The End, which is just five levels, but they're five long, rough levels. Longer stages in this game can be pretty demoralizing, since it's easy to make it most of the way through the stage, make one little slip-up, and then have to start over. The first, second, and last stages of The End in particular drove me crazy, and the final battle against Dr. Fetus, which is really just a normal level where Dr. Fetus is on the screen but he move so slowly that he's not really relevant, was also really hard. I used up all the patience I had for slowly building muscle memory to get through narrow gaps between saws and all that kind of jazz just beating those last few levels, so I've decided not to go back for optional goodies or play the bonus post-game world, Cotton Alley.
