'I told you so!': As Mewgenics roars past 250,000 copies sold in less than a day, Edmund McMillen says 'I knew this game would eventually see the light of day, and I knew it would be my best work'

Edmund McMillen in his office in 2025.

A bit after that he warned that Mewgenics was still "a few years" away, and, well, eight years later, here we are.
