Just in case anyone else has been avoiding it like I have, guppy's hairball now actually counts towards becoming guppy, so I guess there's SOME use for it now

Edit: nevermind I made a mistake

Finally decided to switch to controller for better control of isaac and it's mostly been going really well. Except earlier today when I finally got the legendary poly brim on my blue baby run and thought I was set, then later in the womb I get my shoulder buttons mixed up and high priestess myself to death :/ At least I killed the boss rush though

Yeah. Whatever happened to the tutorial room showing you which button does which item?

Lol dog I know the game tells you that poo poo it's just a little bit disorienting after years of playing on keyboard

In other news cursed eye is actually a really good item (as long as you don't get hit)

Is anyone else having their game crash whenever they enter the hole in the wall after It Lives? :(

I believe a speedrunner tactic is to specifically avoid unlocking lovely items as long as you can.

To circumvent this speed runners are required to use a RPG save file lol. especially important when it comes to things like races.

Anyone know how to get the item in the trapdoor room that is completely enclosed by walls? Bombs didn't do it neither did flying.

Rooms like this

maybe if you had the pickaxe? idk

does anyone know if the baby plum trick works on other instances of that encounter, ie can I get the flute to drop during the boss rush?

drat i've been using platinum god for years and had no idea it had all those useful search tags. i would usually find an unknown item by searching for its item pool but this works better

just learned about the synergies between both dr. fetus + tractor beam and dr. fetus + varicose veins in the same run

i use the word "synergies" very loosely there. you might think tractor beam is good but sometimes while moving sideways the bomb just whips back towards isaac for reasons i'm not quite sure of (edit: the wiki says it's because of changing directions. i did not change the direction of the beam, i just moved, so what the gently caress i may have done this, doesn't matter, combination bad, do not take)

oh yeah, i've found out now on a number of runs that should have been broken auto-wins that tractor beam is a no-go

i have to say, having messed around with J&E a bit but not too much, I don't think they're that awful in most situations but I really can't comprehend how any of the bullet hell bosses would be possible with that movement style

forgotten is a really fun character. i probably play him the most at this point

i like how he kind of breaks the mom chase but not as badly as azazel

tainted forgotten is cool but could benefit from maybe just a little more item interaction. also i would appreciate if we could drop the skull in place instead of only being able to throw it
