McMillen's Basement Collection launches August 31 on Steam

Sinan Kubba — Wed, 22 Aug 2012 08:00:00 EST

Edmund McMillen, best known as one half of Team Meat, has announced a release date of August 31 for The Basement Collection. The bundle is an odyssey through his creative past, which will feature updated versions of eight of his previously released yet less recognizable games. The time-travelling portal of choice will be Steam, on which the compendium will be released for both PC and Mac for $4.

Already announced as inclusions are Time Fcuk, Spewer, Grey Matter, Triachnid, Coil, and the less super (but more original) Meat Boy. There are also two unannounced games, one of which will receive a considerable update in the form of "new music, graphics and gameplay." McMillen's website offers an overview of the updates for each game, as well as the announced extras, which include 15 minutes of unseen stock footage from Indie Game: The Movie.

Edmund McMillen game collection escapes the basement in August, finds solace on Steam

Jessica Conditt — Sun, 08 Jul 2012 16:30:00 EST

Before he made a game about a boy with no skin and a fetus with a monocle, Edmund McMillen of Team Meat created a game about a young emo boy and his interplanetary adventures, one about a lonely man traveling through time and another about puking, along with a few others. Eight of these titles will be available on Steam in late August as a bundle called The Basement Collection, for $4.

The Basement Collection will include Time Fcuk, Aether, Spewer, Grey Matter, Meat Boy (flash prototype), Triachnid and a locked, secret title updated with new content, soundtrack, difficulty modes and achievements. Each game will come with bonus content such as development sketches and early prototypes, and The Basement Collection will feature four "very large bonus unlockables that should make fans of my work quite happy," McMillen writes.

The Basement Collection will also come with a free soundtrack with bonus indie remixes. Try out (i.e. "play") all of these titles for free via McMillen's Newgrounds page now, if you can spare a moment for puketastic, interstellar, time-traveling fun.
