I havent done one of these in awhile. So Im going to do one. Right now. Right here [studio clapping and cheering] Please, please calm yourself. No need for that. [More cheering] Ok you can stop now. You can stop. [studio settles down]

 

Well that was dumb, anyways, The Binding of Issac is one of my favorite games. It originally came out in 2011, and has that good early 2000s flash game look to it.

However, we are not talking about The Binding of Isaac today, we are talking about its recently released remake, Rebirth. (Thats a lot of R's.) This remake includes a whole new art direction, while still keeping the style from the original, new bosses, new enemies, new items, new rooms, theres a lot of new stuff pretty much. Some of these things include the ability to save and load games, local 2 player co-op, full-screen support and resolution capabilities, hard mode, more controller support, "speed run" rewards, and a ton more that I could put here, but wont. Because there is a lot.

Moving on to gameplay. Now, I do not own this game, so I am pretty much going off what others have said and what Ive seen. (Yes, I know its kind of weird to be reviewing a game I havent played.) Gameplay is much like the original, but with a few tweaks. Smoother frames, more tears and power-ups, and more enemies to dodge and outsmart. There are still boosts and pills to up your stats, or lower them. And texture changes are few. The walls and floors have been redone, but thats not really a big real, rooms have been renovated to look darker, such as the arcade:

A lot of other rooms have been changed too. Speaking of rooms, they can now be different size, as seen here:

The bosses! As said before, there are a lot of new enemies, and with new enemies comes new bosses. Sixteen new bosses, actually. And 25 new enemies, if Im not mistaken. There's not that much info on all the bosses yet, as the game is still relatively new, so stay tuned I guess.

Thats about it, really. I would go through the items but seeing as there are over 100 new ones, I think I'll pass. Now for a ratting.
