Developing for Mac has become a pain in the neck for indie devs as of late, due to Apple's shift over to the Metal API.

PIZZA.BAT posted:Man I was expecting The Forgotten to be difficult but not as bad as The Keeper or The Lost but jeeze this game really wasn't built with melee in mind. That was probably the easiest post-it to fill out of any character. What a great way to finish it off. On top of that during my Lamb run I nabbed the D100 and abused the hell out of it to get the Platinum God achievement as well. Now I only have seven left to hit 1,000,000%: Knocked out Dedication ez pz. Tonight I decided I was going to start working on ZIP! and decided Azazel was probably my best bet. First run all my devil deals were worthless familiars and I reset when I hit the Womb as I knew it wasn't happening. Second run, first devil deal: Motherfucking Mega Blast Took me 13 minutes

The one item left that's going to be really difficult to get is Greed's Gullet. Does anyone have any advice on this one? Just play as Isaac and keep rolling for MissingNo or play Greed mode attempting a chaos break? I have about 340 hours in this game and still have never seen it in the wild afaik. I know it normally only spawns in secret rooms. I ran into a Greed fight today which wound up spawning both a Head of the Keeper AND a Steam Sale. I picked up both items and didn't realize I still had the D6 until the moment after I picked both up

Isaac start, try to find the Basement 1 secret room with your free bomb, try to get as many items from the room (pedestals, Greed fights, buttons) and reroll them. Reset until you get the gullet.

If you've unlocked every item already it's probably best to keep playing Greed Mode until you get a D20 to break the game open, yeah. I think there are some items that never spawn in greed mode though so watch out for those.

Alternately, fish for a shop break and combine Chaos with MissingNo. That's how I quickly found Eye of Greed.

Ordinarily I'd say the best way of getting most items is to break greed mode, but check a wiki for the item you are looking for just to double check if you need to break greed mode and buy out the shop or reroll the treasure room. But I've just checked because I was curious, and guess what item doesnt appear in ANY greed mode item pool? Soooo, it looks like the only way to get greeds gullet is to legit find it in normal play. I reckon some variant of Psychedelicatessen posted:Isaac start, try to find the Basement 1 secret room with your free bomb, try to get as many items from the room (pedestals, Greed fights, buttons) and reroll them. Reset until you get the gullet. is probably your best bet, yeah. Find a secret room with an item, D6 it. Recharge the D6, D6 it again. If you find any items that spawn pedistal items (Present, appropriate floor Pandoras box) use them in the secret room, then D6 what they spawn. I dont know how rare it is, I've had greeds gullet a few times, but thats the nature of RNG for you. Edit to Add: I'm not sure if a greed mode chaos shop break would work either. The wiki says "When playing Greed mode, items that are available only in the normal game will still not appear despite Chaos; the modes' different item pools stay separate." which implies to me that as its not normally available in greed mode, you are still poo poo out of luck.

I thought Greed Mode would start to pull from other item pools if you exhausted the shop one?

PostNouveau posted:I thought Greed Mode would start to pull from other item pools if you exhausted the shop one? I'm not an expert on the under the hood mechanics of the game, thats why I default to checking the wiki for specifics, but that line from the page on Chaos implies not? I do know from personal experience that breaking the shop starts getting quite breakfasty faster than I would expect if it did pull from other item pools, but thats not definitive.

So this happened last night:  What would have happened if I didn't have any bombs? Game over? I've never seen a room like this In other news all I have left to get every achievement is Immaculate Conception. The game *really* doesn't want me to get it

PIZZA.BAT posted:So this happened last night: I think that room always has a bomb on the ground near the entrance, you might have picked it up without noticing. Of course if you screw up and use that bomb wrong then I think it would be game over. Hell, looking at that room there are plenty of opportunities to waste your bombs. I just need glyph of balance and mega blast to finish the triptych, but they haven't shown up for weeks on end. Gotten godhead like 5 times looking for them, though.

God the new art style looks to be as much of a leap forwards as from the original flash game. This almost feels like Binding of Isaac 3

 Made it to the chest with default damage and tear rate. 2 good familiars made it possible but it was a miserable run to this point. I think this is where my ~30 run streak is going to end.

Had a run snowball HARD last night. Been playing on a second file after getting 1000000% on my first. Ran Lillith and by the time I reached The Dark Room I had two Incubus, a Succubus and a leech and was still holding Box of Friends (bad shop luck meant no car battery but I did get BFFs). First floor item room had gotten me quad shot and I found Cricket's Body around the Depths. In the Dark Rook I managed to snag a 20/20. I was already fairly broken at this point. Then I got Continuum, which was kinda "meh." Then the next room got me motherfucking Jacob's Ladder. The Lamb and Mega Satan did not stand a chance.

I've said it before, but the easiest fix to the Keeper would be to simply let him get additional coin containers when you get a red heart adding item. You'd still be forced to avoid damage to prevent your pocket from taking the hit, and it would be like taking a full heart's worth of damage on the first six floors. You could also increase the risk-reward by making him a use transformation like The Forgotten to heal his health from his current coin stash. So if you've got five empty coin containers and are holding 16 cents you may abstain from healing in favor of using your stash on a shop item. Conversely you wouldn't be screwed if RNG causes a coin not to spawn for eight rooms in a row.

Nigh infinite health in exchange for not buying shop items sounds kinda broken. Maybe at like 2 or 3 to 1.

Any mention if Repentance is coming to Switch yet? I've been playing on PC through remote play a lot but I'd much rather go back to the Switch version if it was going to get it. Although I'd miss the mod that shows item info. Chin Strap fucked around with this message at 21:29 on Jan 25, 2021 |

Augus posted:new blog post up with a bunch of gifs showing off item combos  Oh hey they actually buffed Cursed Eye. Well, if you combine it with a bunch of other items, at least. For reference, according to the wiki, Cursed Eye pre-Repentance only has the following synergies and interactions: Gamepedia posted:- Black Candle: Teleport effect is removed.
