An enhanced remake of the original Binding of Isaac that features expanded gameplay, pixel art visuals, and a variety of other new additions - including full controller support and local asymmetric co-op.
yes, but there's a lot of artistic choices in that game. what's with the preoccupation with cleft palates?
The game is one of my all-time favs, but that cleft palate shit was always really fucked up to me (and not in the way McMillen seems to think it should, more like "What the fuck, man?"). The art in general is the lowest part for me...and the story is pretty weird and fucked up in a lot of edgelord ways. Jeez, why do I like this game so much again?
It's weird how you become desensitized to the poop in this game. When the Afterbirth expansion came out, one of the bullet points on the list of features was "More poop!" And my reaction was, "Geez, was anyone pining for that?"
Now, in the Repentance expansion, there's a player character who is stuffed full of poop, whose primary attack is spitting poop, whose secondary attack is using pieces of poop he collects to power a suite of specialized poop attacks. And my reaction was a methodical, "Okay, let's see how this character plays."
@bdkmat: Same, I don't even register the theme as being in any way offensive or puerile anymore, it's one of those games I've played so much that it just all seems abstracted and normal.
