The bulging veins, the spatters of blood, the loose skin – he is an absolute master of the flesh. It is this keen eye for detail that makes McMillen such a talented artist of the monstrous. The art style is at once both impressively refined in its attention to detail, and yet also utterly horrifying.

As puerile and misogynistic as Cunt might seem, it certainly bears all the hallmarks of a McMillen game, as well as the McMillen sense of humour. This game’s snappy title is Cunt, a game which sees the player take control of a penis which rotates about the screen, shooting some rather suspect projectiles at a ginormous cartoon vagina in the centre.

The origin of McMillan’s career can perhaps be traced back to a wildly provocative flash game, produced as an affront to anyone who dared try to tell its developer what he could or couldn’t create. So, why are we looking at a game released, at the time of writing, an entire six years ago, and on Halloween no less? Well, McMillen’s own brand of cartoonish grotesquery undoubtedly played a huge part in the great success of his games, which whilst not explicitly categorised as horror titles, certainly display enough of the monstrous and horrifying to deserve a Halloween homage.
