Fucking figures that on a great run I would accidentally pick up the cat.
Was on my best run yet. One bad room left me with three hearts. So I battled Mom's leg with three hearts. Needless to say, I didn't fare so well.

Yeah, this has to be bugged, I'm positive that I've done a bunch of these...[/QUOTE]
There has been a bug where people haven't been given achievements. Ed has said its saved to your game and you'll get them when its fixed though.
Monstro II is fucking gay holy shit
he's really not that hard lol
I always die in the depths.
EVERY. DAMN. TIME.
That or I die at the hands of Monstro in the basement. I hate monstro
Beat mom's leg on my third playthrough, kinda weird how [sp]god stops her from stabbing Isaac to death[/sp] even though I DID make him take pentagrams and make deals with the devil.
"Everything is terrible!
The game just got harder!"
I was dreading that, start up to see how it is now... and got basement boy. uh..
Monstro is the easiest boss I think
[QUOTE=GoldenBullet;32596000]Monstro is the easiest boss I think[/QUOTE]
Larry Jr. or Gurdy (just hug the wall and move to another when he is about to shoot) are the easiest IMO
[QUOTE=Zondac;32593089]Uhh, I don't know a lot of actionscript, but I know enough to be completely sure that joypad support would be possible on it.[/QUOTE]
Well then you know jack shit because it isn't.
I hate those hopping meat things that spam blood projectiles everywhere. Especially when there is like five of them.
The easiest boss is the Duke Of Flies just because he doesnt directly attack you and the flies die quickly.
Also i never encountered him as a mini-boss ever, so i assume the game doesnt use him.
[QUOTE=GoldenBullet;32596000]Monstro is the easiest boss I think[/QUOTE]
Duke of flys is the easiest boss. You don't even need to try.
Monstro is like the third easiest boss. Larry Jr. being second.
Just bought the game, any tips?
Every boss is easy except that big pile of meat that spawns shit, I forgot the name.
Also my favorite character has to be the guy with the eye-patch, whose name also escapes me.
Don't get the cat.
I keep fucking getting speed upgrades and nothing else.
Some playthroughs, I'll have 15 bombs and 0 keys by the time I get to the first boss. On others, I'll have 0 bombs and a lot of keys. Why can't I have a lot of each?
Man harder game my ass, I ended up with full damage (thanks steve!) and a few other power ups (snakeshot etc)
Found a 1up and had poison touch so pretty much ran through every enemy not giving a shit then beat up the heart after using the 1up with 2 hearts.
My space item was a Gamekid which, by itself gets my vote of most overpowered weapon in the game, makes you invincable, one shot kills all small monsters, and heals you for each enemy you kill by ramming into them.
I really love this game - it just doesn't love me :(
Oh man this game is really creepy.
maybe this would actually be a good game if your chance of winning didn't depend so much on the 10 items that are actually worth something

This is another major problem with the game that I've noticed. The item system is a good idea, but it really ought to be less randomized. You ought to be guaranteed a weapon-booster (like the Inner Eye or Chocolate Milk or something) within the first two floors or so. I've gotten down the boss of The Depths with nothing more than tears and a lot of heart containers. (Literally.)
I feel like it's trying too hard to emulate roguelikes when it really isn't one in the first place... in roguelikes, you're actually a bit less dependent on items since there are usually tons of tactics for dealing with any given situation, and even if you can't find any half-decent loot early on you can generally will it out until you find some purely through smart playing. In this game, the only tactic is "strafe away from the enemies and hammer the arrow keys" so the only way to become stronger is to find better items.
Honestly, I don't know what to say. I really, really want to like this game, and I'd really like to say it has lots of potential... but I'm not even sure it does. The concept of a roguelike-zelda-shooter is great, but there's just so many design missteps that I think in order for it to meet its potential it'd really have to be rebuilt from the ground up.
Then again, maybe I'm just a huge pessimist.

You're new to the Roguelike genre aren't you.
no, i'm new to bad roguelikes though

if this wasn't made by edmund nobody would care about it but since everybody's obsessed by super meat boy they're willing to overlook the actual gameplay and masturbate to the art direction instead
i mean hell, that guy who beat it 10 times said himself that he restarts when he doesn't get a power up bonus on the first floor, just shows how unbalanced it is if it's not worth even trying to get through it without higher attack damage

While I agree that it isn't the best game, and has some balancing issues, you're coming as an arrogant dick acting like the whole world agrees with you because you're so right.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who sees this.
