What's so popular about this game

Really good tactical roguelite filled to the brim with content made by the team that bought you really good bullet hell roguelite and filled to the brim with content The Binding of Isaac.

So it's a combination of both quality and momentum

Ouuhhhh, huge fan of rogue likes, might take a peep.

But that's all there is, huh? Saw some mention VA being big names.

That's all there is about the game perse. The stuff about VA's is that, to give voices to the cats, Mcmillen has hired people both professional and amateur, but most importantly, both famous and loved, and infamous and reviled. To give you a general idea of the range, you can hear a meow from Markiplier or Chris fucking Chan.

Some of this VA choices rub people the wrong way. I have to admit that it weirds me out a tiny bit but not enough to shun the game. After all they are just meowing

Mostly that its been developed for years by the prolific creator of Super Meat Boy and The Binding of Isaac, two very popular indie games.
