The Binding of Isaac

[Stretchysumo]

Edmund McMillen (most of you probably know him for developing Super Meat Boy) has announced that he's working on a new game, titled The Binding of Isaac. He hasn't released any info on the game yet other than "it's a play on his favorite game of all time", however, the game is supposed to be finished next month, and he plans on releasing more info next week.

First info released

I thought this was going to be rule 34 on Dead Space but whatever.

[idiot-monarch]

Great news. Big fan of all of McMillen's games, and him, Komix and Danny B make a great team.

[Stretchysumo]

The game is only going to cost $5.

Oh hell yes! Super Meat Boy was amazing on so many levels so I have very high expectations for this. Hopefully it will get an XBLA release, should do after how well SMB sold.

New trailer released.

Yet you still came in here for a look?

A 2.5 GHz? Really? Red Orchestra 2 isn't that high.

The game is out now, if anyone's interested.

I bought it and I am really enjoying it so far.
I love how there are so many different enemy types, cards and items.

I got this game yesterday and spent the first five minutes of it going "HOLY SHIT WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT THING".

[wafflecake12]

I just beat it for the first time. Personally one of my favorite games this year.

[cheese-man]

i got it, time to play it

[StrapOnFetus]

LoL I thought this was a Dead Space thread

[Warforger]

Except he will never be as cool as Isaac Newton. Newton freakin' founded the laws of Physics and in order to prove them he invented Calculus to do so. What did Isaac Clarke do? Be the main character of an imaginary universe that rips off so many horror franchises.

[StrapOnFetus]

Issac Newton is just a figment of your imagination He does not actually exist! Issac Clark however, is real and bad-ass, he kills so many more necromorphs than that imgainary Issac newton.

Question, if I can play the demo on Newgrounds, does that mean that my PC can run the game?

[Greenfrost6]

This game seems awfully dark.

Pretty much, it runs well for my computer

Also, this game is hard but so addicting, I love it. Probably the best $5 I ever spent

[desert116]

Really, really good game. But I don't understand why everybody keeps saying that it's really hard. Because it's not.

For the record Isaac Clarke is named after Isaac Asimov not Isaac Newton. Also what kind of prude motherfucker feels the need to censor the word ass?

[TheMajormel]

I plan to get this game but one question:can it save the progress when you reach a dungeon or do you have to do it in one sitting?

one sitting, but it works because every room is randomly generated. So every playthrough is never the same.

Oh yes, it's INCREDIBLY dark. There are many very dark things hinted at throughout the game.

[phrozonfire]

I am having intense amounts of fun with this.

Next to minecraft, favourite Indie Game of all time.

Gotten to mum once, but died.

If you beat it many times over, it gets hard and stays that way until you erase your data.
Just wait until you get to fight Satan.
