Free Halloween content coming. You can also demo the game.

The update will provide over 20 new items, 3 new bosses, a new playable character, more achievements and a new "final chapter" for those who have already completed the game.

Bravo!

Edmund plans to update the game at least a few more times too. I also know what some of the new content will be. I can't say what it is exactly, but it's pretty cool stuff. I will say one of the items is an actual melee weapon.

I finally beat what I THOGHT was Mom after 28 deaths (as Cain, naturally, and WITH #1 (pee) and hella upgrades) and now I find out there's a chapter 2. Holy crap, this is fun. I've turned the graphix way low so it's super fast, and it really makes the game hardfunner.

Playing with ??? is just going to be five hours of scumming for Book of Revelations + Battery, won't it.

Doom · « **Reply #47 on:** October 11, 2011, 01:57:38 PM »

It's practice for Mama's Boy! A shame "The Poop" is an anti-reward.

Got my Cave Boy yesterday and ???, I think once I get Isaac the D6 I'll have enough vigor to claim Dark Boy and Mama's Boy.

In-Game Update: Every time Kamikaze drops on the first floor an angel drowns in poop.

FUCKSHITHELL I DID IT

I got three cubes of meat on a single playthrough and it evolved into a walking, self-motivated melee fighter that would walk over to a nearby enemy and just stand there causing it to die of red flashes.

The second cube of meat only made it into a spitting, orbiting face. I'm wondering now if that's how you get the Super Meat Boy thingy (by getting four or five cubes of meat in a row and assembling him).

I'm sending this guy a dollar as soon as I have a dollar.

After a fucked up and stressed day, I sat down and played

I died 5 times in a row in The Basement, 3 of them being in Basement I. So I took a nap. Came back, beat the game, then immediately beat the game again.

Woooooooooow.

The Devil always seems to have one of the dead baby familiars for me, which I always grab, as they prove invaluable in The Womb against the Dopples. And generally just carpet-firing the crowded rooms.

Yep, you get the Super Meat Boy by collecting 4 meat cubes (which drop from Harbingers/Horsemen, so you have to find all four in the same run)

Just be careful, because if it walks over a bomb, it'll push it over.

Basement Boy, Spelunker Boy and.. Mama's Boy. Serious bullet time action and a level 6 shop Bible buy. At least I can stop worrying about wanting to delete my save data.

Dark Boy still held in the clutches of those stupid headless leaper assholes.

Also encounter Famine, Pestilence, War and... Cholex? COME ON!

Well, I beat Mom for the first time, finally. Did it as Maggie, and managed to have enough hearts to get both The Pact and The Mark before leaving the Basement. Then scored the Ph.D. and I don't think I found a single pill that wasn't Health Up or Balls Of Steel, so I still had 7 hearts by the time I made it to the Depths. With the Virus, the Common Cold, and the Inner Eye, even I could blunder my way through the boss fights without much trouble. Didn't even need the 1up I found on the last level.

I'm taken to understand that this is when the real game begins.

Just keep mashing in one direction, eventually you can push past.

Also, beating the game for the 10th time changes the ending song. It's not on the soundtrack, and it's kind of fucking creepy.

For those who enjoy evolving cubes of meat: Book of Revelations increases the chance a Horseman will be the boss to like 95% (I had Monstro once when I had it, but every other time it was a horseman)

I used the Teleporter as soon as I entered Depths 1 and it let me skip the whole floor:

According to the twitter the update is complete, and will be showing up on the 31st.

Double for being so creepy.
The Binding of Isaac Halloween Update

Cobalt · « **Reply #59 on:** October 31, 2011, 10:18:39 PM »

Update's up. There's new stuff.

First time playing after the update, I got brimstone, which replaces your shot with a beam like Gluttony's, but you need to charge it up first. It turns out if you get chocolate milk too, it eliminates the charge time.

[spoiler]Not that it helped much against the boss of Sheol.[/spoiler]
