    I can't believe the amount of effort they put into this game. In my first play through I was blinded by frustration and could not see the beauty and crude yet hilarious humor in this game. A true gem, the high reviews don't lie. The references and characters that are actually worth unlocking put the icing on the cake.

    The more amazing thing is that since Kirby got more and more popular than Lolo and Lala, Lololo and Lalala became more popular than them, even appearing as supporting characters in the Kirby animated series (Kirby: Right Back at Ya!) but there they were called Fololo and Falala, for some reason.

    Sort of ironic, actually, how The Binding of Isaac references a lot to Super Meat Boy, also by Edmund McMillen, and Super Meat Boy references to a lot of other games as you can see in this video, so The Binding of Isaac is sort of referencing to a reference itself.
