I was just wondering, in 2-12 (the silhoutte level where you grab the key that releases buzzsaw traps), is Capitan Viridian required to get the warp zone?

No unlockable characters are required for anything but speedrunning.

You sure about that? I remember reading somewhere that some levels in the game could not be completed using Meat Boy (with the exception of characters that work just like Meat Boy, like The Cotton Alley levels).

Some unlockable characters are used in order to get some warp zones/bandages (mainly these pesky bandages that require a double jump ability to get) but you don't need them to finish the game.

As for your previous question, you don't need Viridian to get to the warp zone. Hell, Meat Boy can go to it without much problems. You just need some good timing to jump through the leftmost gap and get the falling key opening the way to the warp zone. You should have more than enough time to make it to the warp before it closes.

Oh, that's where it is. Sorry, I assumed that it was in that area on the top where, when you grab the key that unlocks Bandage Girl's cage, you can faintly see some locks opening.
