Just got Blood Clot Boy after about an hour's worth of attempts. I started at 2-3X (Buzzzcut) because it's so easy to die on that level. I went 3-20, then 1-2 (I originally skipped Agent Orange-Cher Noble-The Moon [5-7] and went straight to Grape Soda, but then when I came back, I kept dying at The Moon of all levels). Here are some things I found helpful:
For Grape Soda, don't get too close to the needles at the beginning because when you jump up, they'll hit you even though they shouldn't.
Use Captain Viridian for Agent Orange, Centipede and Dust Bunnies. In Dust Bunnies, you can basically just run straight to the end with minimal dodging (you should practice it first though before starting your run).
Remember, the Kid can double jump even after running off a platform. It makes jumps like the ones in Kracken easier.
And of course, use Jill for Pinkeye Falls.
Other than that, I used the Kid for everything else except Electrolysis and Tenebrae, which I used Meat Boy for.
Hope this helps someone out there.
Edit: Oh, one other thing. The faster you do Crawl Space, the easier it will be for you to get back to Bandage Girl (after a while the ulcers all hover over to the left side; one of them even went into the hole Bandage Girl was in).

Thanks! It helped me very much...great tips with captain viridian...those levels aren't to hard with meat boy but then again...there was no pressure when I played them  I'm willing to help others too. So if someone is interested in getting some of these achievements let me know and I'll give my best hints and tips

Currently I'm trying Missile Boy. I figured out which levels are a problem to me, and with what character is a level easiest to get. In my opinion 6th level is not hard but I get very often killed so yeah...let's start with 6. Same thing with the 4th, 12th and 20th level. After beating these 4 levels you can start from level 1 passing the rest of the levels using these characters: The Kid (1, 3, 6, 7, 9, 12, 13, 14, 16) Meat Boy (2, 4, 18, 19, 20) Captain Viridian (5, 15, 17) Runman (8, 10) Flywrench (11) Why Kid, SMB and Viridian in those levels..you'll figure it out once you see the levels. Why Runman...the fastest character in the game. You just need a little practice and the 8th and 10th level will become very easy. He is also useful for getting better times in some levels  And in the 11th level I used Flywrench because it's very easy to jump from the wall over the saws back to Bandage girl. You can try this one with the Kid, but I think it's easier with Flywrench  Good luck to anyone out there who is trying to get this achievement...I know I'll need it

Woah. I didn't know you could use other characters in these runs. I definitely have all but four (dark world salt factory, dark world hell, dark world rapture, and dark world cotton alley), and I've been doing it with just Meat Boy.
Also, does anyone know why there isn't an achievement for Cotton Alley light world?

I'm going to save you the effort of looking at smileys. I have gotten all of the achievements.
My advice to anyone is to do them in order. Hard ones, long ones, easy ones. It really becomes a grind. It's a good thing to change it up a bit, and not work too hard at it.
Beyond that, play in offline mode when doing things that aren't iron man runs to avoid looking like you have no life!

I've not had much trouble at all so far (Finished all of the light world and about half of the dark world) and it just means i'm going to try. Doesn't mean I'm going to get them anytime soon, but I plan on adding this game to the 100% Completed Category on steam some day

This achievement is called Girl Boy. If you count all the achievements on steam you will see that there is 40 of them, but there says it's 41. Girl Boy is that hidden one

Missile Boy has been spanking me for 7 hours straight.. This is way too much of a step-up from Maggot Boy or Blood Clot Boy. I've already got 1500+ deaths with no success  This is ridiculous considering I got the other eight Iron Boy achievements within 1000 deaths in total. Already set up the appropriate characters to make each level as easy as possible, and trained myself to the fullest - I only need to not screw up. Here's my character usage: Meat Boy: 8,9,10,18,19 The Kid: 1,2,3,4,5,7,14,15,16,20 Flywrench: 6,11,12,13 Captain Viridian: 17 Hardest levels: 2 (jumping through the sawblades above and below), 3 (same as 2), 9 (screws me up while climbing up), 14 (dropping through the sawblades), and 20 (dodging the fast homing missles at the end) Easiest levels: 4 (memorized the timing.. rarely get killed), 5 (zero danger if you use The Kid), 7 (whenever you fall or miss the key, just press esc and restart), 10 (same as 4; I never get killed), and 16 (just make it to the key and then you are good) Tricky levels: 1 (dodging the flying sawblades), 6 (with flywrench this level has very little danger, but you can still screw up fairly often), 8 (dodging the homing missle coming from the upper right part gives me some trouble), 11 (flywrench is so heavy it sometimes misses bandage girl and falls), 12 (screws me up fairly often), 13 (nerve-wrecking), 15 (when I fail to climb above the left moving wall, I slide through the sawblade launcher block), 17 (memorized the moving sequence with viridian, but still prone to make mistake), 19 (same as 17)

Definitely use Captain Viridian in level 5. You just go straight up to bandage girl, without collecting the keys
