Just to clarify on the Xbox port stuff: Yes it's happening, there's a team working on it. It won't be done for a while, and the work is done on a PC anyway so there isn't a need to port it to the PC, it'll just get released on the PC too.

If this is really true then gently caress, yes!

I think this is more just Flash itself rather than the art style.

It's actually all Ed's fault. Lemme find you a quote from someone who apparently understands it

Binding of Isaac hit the mother lode of bad performance.

Written in the AS2 language which was replaced 8 years ago, and forces the code to run in the old version of the Adobe virtual machine. Uses true vector graphics for everything which means they have to get redrawn from scratch each frame, which is much slower than blitting a stored bitmap to screen (and vastly slower than using direct hardware acceleration).

Doesn’t do any pooling of game entities, so they’re getting allocated and garbage collected wile in the middle of combat. And just to add some horror, it was all put together within the old style Flash authoring program so you end up with .fla files that buckle under the weight of an expansion.

drat, seriously? I've played 20 drat hours, and you're telling me there's a harder boss?

:allears: I have nowhere near enough hours played of this game but there are people who have spent hundreds of hours on this game :catstare: So yeah, by beating Mom you barely started playing the main part of the game.

Genesis 22:10 in the video refers to Abraham just moments before killing Isaac

Even the 30fps Youtube video looks so smooth :circlefap:

It actually looks like 60 FPS, YouTube added that feature recently and it makes the videos so much better to look at (not only Isaac's).

This is so good. I'm still leery of pre-ordering because gently caress that, but I have 2 months to cave in and do it and we all know how that's going to end up :shepicide:

Can you imagine how long it'll take for many of the combinations to be discovered and understood? Can you imagine how many BUGS will go unnoticed for weeks?

More importantly, I don't want to imagine how many more bugs will there be in Rebirth.

Because this doesn't explain the existence of spider mod community fixes and the community remix.

I just assume some people are crazy and/or crazily dedicated. A lot of fan works must've required hours and hours of tinkering with limited tools.

Holy poo poo, it's amazing. I wish all the songs were unlocked already. Just listen to it. Everlasting Hymn is beautiful.

I'm not familiar with other Nicalis games but the 20 or so hours I've put in the new game have been stellar. It's really sad to see some people are having problems, let's hope the devs will work out most of the kinks in the near future because the game itself is great fun.
