The Binding of Isaac: my new favorite game!

Hey everybody, so I recently picked up a new game called "The Binding of Isaac". It is a game where, as the title suggests, you start out by playing as Isaac. The basic premise is that you have ran into your basement, because your mom is coming after you. (Ya, it's a little weird) So you start out in the first floor, the basement. The game is based around moving throughout the rooms on each floor, and then fighting the enemies who are in that room. The fighting mechanic is a little odd. You have a standard ranged attack, and most starting enemies can only hurt you by touching you. As you progress, the enemies get harder, but your character progresses too. You can increase damage, movement speed for dodging, rate of fire, range, and many, many more. The controls are flawless, allowing for smooth attacks, and interesting mechanics, like the ability to almost curve your shots. The game is randomly generated each time, which allows for instead of memorizing the game and not wanting to play it anymore, you can replay and have a whole new experience. A video of me playing and explaining the game will be going up soon, and I hope you all will watch and like it. To get the game go to Steam and create an account. Then buy the game in the store, and start having fun. On the plus side, because its a small game, it only costs $5. I highly suggest you check it out, and have fun playing! And of course, take care everybody!
