Hi all!!!! :-))
I have been playing the 360 version for a period and wanted to know who the fastest players are on the steam version.  More specific who are the fastest based on character breifly.  I want to understand this before I buy possibly the steam version.  So who are the fastest????


Naija               Runman           Super Meat Boy   The Kid   Ogmo                       
1                   1                1                1         1
2                   2                2                2         2
3                   3                3                3         3
4                   4                4                4         4
5                   5                5                5         5


Flywrench    Alien Hominid    Captain Viridian    Josef
1            1                1                   1
2            2                2                   2
3            3                3                   3
4            4                4                   4
5            5                5                   5

Runman, Naija, and the Kid. Most others are too slow.

I actually calculated how many top times each of my characters have (most of them are from top 500), and here are the current results for the first 5 worlds:

Runman: 52
Naija: 49
Viridian: 25
Flywrench: 24
Meat Boy: 21
The Kid: 15
Alien Hominid: 7
Commander Video: 2
Tim: 2
Ogmo: 2
Jill: 1

I hate playing as Naija, though, at least for the most part. Her dash should not replenish when you bonk your head on the ceiling, but since it does, half the levels she's great at are only because you're able to mash the dash-button and just fly through everything.

Regarding Ogmo, the level he's perhaps the fastest in is 3-13, The Bend (and the Dark World version of that level as well). Using him, you're able to get past the saw blade when the blade is at the very bottom-left corner. I tried using The Kid to accomplish the same thing, but so far I've been unable to do so, perhaps since his double jump just works differently, or perhaps because his hitbox is a pixel or two higher.
