The Binding of Mewsaac?
It’s me, Tyrone, here to tell you about some stuff. The good stuff
We've been hard at work on the next patch for Repentance+, and there’s a lot coming your way. There are loads of bug fixes, optimizations to online modes, balance tweaking and feature improvements that we hope veteran and beginner players will both appreciate.
Here’s one cool addition that you can look forward to. You know how the Key Master and Bomb Beggar often get overlooked, because you don’t want to use up too many of your resources to keep gambling for their big payouts? Well, pretty soon you’ll be able to pay them with a golden bomb or key to receive their item payout instantly – at the cost of that golden status, of course. There are some more changes in store that I can’t tell you about just yet, but please look forward to the next update.
Some of you may have seen us messing around with AI-controlled Isaac over on my Twitch stream. We’ve enabled chat commands, where viewers can make Isaac move to specific spots, attack, bomb and use his active item, all through Twitch chat.
It’s been fun watching the community try to complete runs together. We’re working on more ways for chat to interact and team up. If you have specific commands you’d like to suggest, please let us know. More to come on that, too!
Now here is Edmund to talk a little bit about a project that’s near and dear to his heart: his next game, Mewgenics.

Edmund here. Sorry for hijacking the Isaac blog. I promise to only do it one more time.
So, for those of you who don’t know, I’ve been working for a very long time on an endless cat-breeding RPG called Mewgenics. If you love Isaac, you’re going to feel right at home in this one.
Mewgenics is built with the replayability, randomization and strategic depth that made Isaac so addictive. It has branching paths, tons of items, spells and mutations to discover. The game genre is completely different, but it’s designed to keep you coming back again and again, just like Isaac.
Mewgenics actually takes place in the same town where Isaac and his mother lived. So if you’ve spent any time getting lost in the lore of Isaac, there are definitely some cool connections to watch for. And the soundtrack by Ridiculon is the best they’ve ever done.
If you’re someone who loves the challenge of Isaac’s endless replayability, and enjoys unlocking new items and exploring new combinations, I really think Mewgenics is going to scratch that same itch.
There’s an absurd amount of depth, and you can easily sink hundreds of hours into the game without seeing everything we crammed in there. It’s got the same charm, the same humor and the layers of complexity you’ve come to expect from my stuff. It really feels like the culmination of my experience making games.
If you haven't seen the Mewgenics trailer I just released, please check it out and share it with your friends and family. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how familiar it feels, even though it’s something new. Go add it to your Steam wishlist and get ready because it's finally coming!
Alright, that’s enough from me for now. Stay tuned for the next Repentance+ patch, and keep an eye out for more updates on Mewgenics!
And here's the link ONE MORE TIME!
