Creator Of Super Meat Boy Announces New Project The End Is Nigh
Edmund McMillen, one of the co-creators of Super Meat Boy and The Binding of Isaac, today announced his new sprawling adventure/platformer The End is Nigh.
You play as Ash, a blobby “thing” who just wants to make a friend (in the literal sense; on his journey, he makes a friend out of pieces of people). Just like Super Meat Boy, it’s packed with levels, fun collectibles, and brutal challenge.
The End is Nigh will be available on Steam July 12. You can check out the trailer below and read more about the game on its Steam page.
Our Take
While I’m still sad about the cancellation of Mewgenics, this new project looks even more exciting. We loved Super Meat Boy, so we’re eagerly anticipating McMillen’s return to the platformer genre.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
