Edmund McMillen And The Binding Of Isaac Card Game!

Edmund and Danielle McMillen's Kickstarter for a Binding of Isaac card game is over 800% funded as of this writing. This interview was recorded hours before the campaign launched. Everything you need to know about the way the game itself is written on its Kickstarter page. My interview with the McMillens, thus, focuses on details such as the origin of the flu with which Edmund was sick when he drafted up the game's design. You'll learn the name of the office supply store in Santa Cruz, California where he bought the index cards upon which he scrawled the first prototype. He'll implore you to pirate the game instead of paying for it. We'll discuss whether or not US Military installations overseas use pennies in cash transactions (they don't), and I'll finally come within three degrees of separation from Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. I had a lot of fun doing this interview. Edmund and Danielle are good at talking. Maybe that has something to do with their success. The Kickstarter has 29 days to go. It's already funded. Don't back it if you don't want to. As Edmund himself says in this interview, you can just draw all the cards yourself with a Sharpie on some index cards.
