Of course the first Tuesday I work in weeks has to be this Tuesday. :argh:

If you guys are into the speed running/racing community, Richard_Hammer and CobaltStreak are going to be playing and streaming Rebirth 24/7 in shifts until they 100% the game.

that sounds like a profoundly terrible idea that would suck all joy out of playing it if not life itself

Where does the item appear, in the level hat you are on? I can never find it.

What are those checkered flag rooms with the single spike tile in the middle? Why do some items have no effect like the lockpicks? What is the bad gas pill? What is anything. I don't understand this game and it doesn't tell you sh*t and kinda sucks.

It doesn't literally appear on your floor, just in the game from that point on.

Step on the spike repeatedly to find out.

No idea what you mean by lockpicks.

Bad gas makes you fart and all the enemies point and laugh except for the choking unfortunates caught in your noxious discharge.

All is vanity and artifice, we are simply delusion-plagued apes playing at gods.

You are incorrect and also you smell like expensive "acquired-taste" cheese.

which one

also pro tip, if you have a decent build with soy milk+guppy mode DO NOT GET BRIMSTONE

sure you'll be able to spit out brimstone by just tapping the button but the damage is so bad and you lose your fly capacity almost entirely

So, it turns out if you find a reroll room while playing the Slow Roll and you get the cursed eye, the spoon bender, and technology, you can hold down any directional fire key and everything in every room dies before you get to the next door/trap door. This includes bosses. Slow Roll, everybody!

i think it gives you invulnerability when you hold down the use button, just don't let the energy bar hit zero

I only have 2 challenges left to beat - Demo Man and Darkness Falls! Hopefully I'll be able to knock those out tonight.

I've said this before earlier in the thread, but: The Red Candle makes non-shooting challenges a breeze. That thing does SO much damage. Unlocks by donating 450 coins, and costs 15 to buy. It recharges constantly so you can use it multiple times per room, and it can kill most bigger bosses in 3-4 uses. It also leaves fire on the ground for more mobile bosses that don't stay still.

Working on Demo Man, I had a chance to buy a Brimstone from the Devil Room. I passed it up, because I assume that it won't replace my Bombs. Did I make a huge mistake?

Yes. Now you won't be making GBS threads out dozens of bombs at a time and killing yourself destroying everything
