Edmund McMillen’s The Binding of Isaac managed to be one of the creepiest, most f-ed up games come out in quite some time. So, it’s especially fitting that the co-creator of Super Meat Boy’s offering a sizable update on All Hallow’s Eve for his action-RPG shooter. Here’s what the update adds, from McMillen’s blog:
-Added chapter 5 (unlocked after 10 mum kills)
-Added 3+ new bosses
-Added 4 new enemies
-Added 20+ new items
-Added one new unlockable character (Eve)
-Added one new “FINAL” ending.
-Added 6+ new achievements
-Added 2 new music tracks
-Added updated collection viewer
-Added 4 new tarot cards (finishing the major arcana)
McMillen promised that he’d be rolling out fresh Isaac content if the game garnered a sizable following and this update follows up on that pledge. You can get the game over on Steam right here.

Tuesday, November 1, 2011 at 8:30 PMReally happy about this. Essentially free DLC for a game that only cost me $3. And not sure if this is strange or not, but I’ve put 25 hours into this game so far. It’s like crack!
One of the best games this year – and for sure the best indie title.
