Ed McMillen: Ubuntu Store Sold Super Meat Boy For A Year Without Permission, Has Yet To Pay Team Meat

The latest Humble Bundle includes the Linux version of The Binding Of Isaac, the Legend of Zelda-inspired roguelike. The problem is, if you try to download it using Ubuntu’s Software Centre, you’ll be told Team Meat “declined” to have the game sold via the store. Except Team Meat didn’t decline, the game was submitted and rejected, the reason being it “wasn’t a good fit”.


What Happens When You Put The Binding Of Isaac In Team Fortress 2?

Glorious, glorious madness. You just gotta love mash ups that put two insane games like these together.


The Best Version Of The Binding Of Isaac Coming To Consoles

Edmund McMillen’s The Binding of Isaac gave players a horrific, addictive rougelike experience when it came out last year. After a planned 3DS release was scuttled, the only place to play the super-tough dungeon crawler has been on PC platforms.

One Of The Hardest, Meanest Indie Games Ever Gets An Even More Ornier Physical Edition

One of 2011′s more pleasant surprises was The Binding of Isaac, a game Totilo described as “a wonderfully warped Old Testament take on The Legend of Zelda“.


The Rules Of Religion, And Why The Next One Just Might Be A Game

The things that make us reconsider who we are and what we believe in are often bizarre, random, coincidental; sometimes completely unremarkable save for the sudden realisation that concusses you. Lately, things I’ve been reading and playing have coalesced into a divine cognisance for me. I’ve been reconsidering my faith.


Today The Binding Of Isaac Costs US$1.24

I had a friend tell me that Steam sales were directly responsible for him not having played almost 80 percent of the games he had actually purchased. It’s crazy, but there’s something about Steam sales — the ease of purchase, the awesome prices — something that just let’s loose the strings of our digital wallets, and sends our credit card bills skyward. Today? The highlight is most probably The Binding Of Isaac for a ludicrous US$1.24


The Best Game Music Of 2011: The Binding Of Isaac

We’ve done a lot of big-budget games so far in our Best Video Game Music of 2011 series, but there were some great indie soundtracks released, as well. One of the very best of those was Danny Baranowsky’s dangerous, dark, synthy work on the Zelda-esque roguelike The Binding of Isaac.

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:
