I bet it's just Cheat Engine

Nah, I used a different hex editor, I don't know how to use Cheat Engine ; ;

Not knowing that is not a bad thing... actually quite opposite :)

I kinda want to know more, but I also want to resist temptation to try and cheat with it.

Chubfish 01-24-2012 02:41 PM

I'd recommend only cheating after you've 100%'d the game, or you're just going to spoil the experience.

enchilado 01-24-2012 02:46 PM

Well.

Got to the devil demon evil dungeon chamber place beneath the Womb for the first time, with Judas. I had very high attack and a fair number of hitpoints, considering Judas only starts with one, and some other good stuff like Mom's Contact and Halo of Flies, but being unused to the behaviour of the new enemies I... well... I didn't realise until half my hitpoints were gone that the black leeches exploded.

At first I thought it's fan-made, but BoI really is getting a box version wow : o Too bad I already own the game

...why TWO discs? It's a 30mb flash game with about 100mb mp3 OST

enchilado 01-27-2012 12:52 PM

Cool. Though it's not a particularly nice box and I already have a DRM free version, so I won't be getting it.

Unless that realistic painting comes with it. It might be worth it just for that, although people might look at me very strangely.

Because you can't play DVD-ROMs on a CD player.

That fan art is included in the package as an A3.5 poster.

Actually that's wrong.

I think it was Sonic R, it had an OST that was immediately playable if you put it in your CD player.

MeechMunchie 01-27-2012 01:21 PM

Well colour me pink and call me Delilah.

But, you know, other good reasons for keeping the game and the soundtrack on seperate discs.

Oh, it's just fan art.

And after Googling it I discovered it looks better in that picture than it actually does:

Well, yeah. Putting them on the same disc is stupid.

MeechMunchie 01-27-2012 01:36 PM

And I'd say the weird looks you'd get outweigh any satisfaction you'd recieve from putting it up.

EDIT: Speedy shit

Nate 01-30-2012 03:23 PM

Have y'all read this?

Phylum 01-30-2012 10:33 PM

That sounds really interesting. I'm definitely excited about more content, although I'd like to have the main campaign finished a bit more thoroughly before it arrives.

Also, vectors. I'm even more excited about Team Meat's future projects now.

MeechMunchie 01-30-2012 11:06 PM

There's a speed of shot stat, not just rate of fire, that can actually be modified now

THANK YOU

MeechMunchie 02-09-2012 10:07 AM

Damn. I was doing well, with a high rate high damage triple shot and decent speed as Judas (plus Book of Belial, so I really was doing pretty well). Suddenly I get Dr. Fetus. My rate gets reset to 1, but I keep playing for the lulz. I fight Fistula (http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__...29/Fistula.png). First shot splits him into 4. Next shot (which takes ages to make because the rate is so slow, meanwhile I'm getting hit) splits each of those 4 into 2. So I'm now running away from my own explosions in a room with 8 fast-moving blobs.

Needless to say, I die quickly. Despite the appeal of infinite bombs: Worst. Upgrade. Ever.

Varrok 02-09-2012 12:01 PM

You're the first person I know who dislikes Dr. Fetus weapon

Also, It may not seem that obvious, but you don't have to pick up every upgrade :)

PS: How do you (which tag) make some text crossed (with a horizontal line on it)?

I know, but I'd never had Dr. Fetus before so I wanted to try it. I already avoid Chocolate Milk and most action items.

Varrok 02-09-2012 09:51 PM

I should've guessed that Thank you : D

I've achieved Dark Boy (which afaik is considered the hardest one) mostly because dr. Fetus - you just need to get used to it, train a bit

enchilado 02-09-2012 10:02 PM

Wouldn't Mama's Boy be harder?

Varrok 02-09-2012 10:07 PM

Surprisingly, not. You get prepared by "1 hit 1 heart" strategy and there are way less enemies which randomly shoot many projectiles... and first womb boss (scolex) is a joke :P

MeechMunchie 02-11-2012 04:33 PM

Another big step as a player: For the first time, I quit a perfectly good run about 3/5 of the way through to go and do something else.

This is important. It means that doing well is no longer significant to me... Which means I must be doing well most of the time. Woot!

MeechMunchie 02-17-2012 07:26 AM

Okay, I'll stop filling up this thread in a second, but I found a weird glitch.

http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/881/38156030.png

I dropped a bomb (I had 99 thanks to Skeleton Key and Bombs Are Key) and the explosion stayed there. It was an actual object and I could push it around.

Also, beat Mom's Heart in about 14 seconds, maybe less. That was funny.

Varrok 02-17-2012 07:37 AM

I've just noticed that item rock looks like a grumpy face (half of it, to be precise)

enchilado 02-21-2012 04:33 PM

Is it normal for a monster to still be alive after you defeat Mom? I've never noticed it happening before.


Varrok 02-21-2012 09:51 PM

It's not

enchilado 02-22-2012 12:20 AM

Hmm. Damn bugs.

Also, yay, that makes Judas and Cain:

http://s3.kkloud.com/gett/static/sca...c6peva38fr.png

I bought the Nail and decided I didn't want it, then bought the Nine Lives Cat by mistake. I did die once after that, but thankfully I'd also gotten the 1UP as well so I didn't lose any maximum hitpoints.

In the end I had every stat maxed out (as well as a lot of Tears Up pills on top of that, but do they keep having an affect after the bar is full?) except Speed, which was very close to it. I felt like a god until I reached Satan.

MeechMunchie 04-07-2012 10:05 AM

I gave up on BoI a few weeks ago. I really wanted to finish it, but there was just too much stuff.

I may buy this.

enchilado 04-08-2012 02:08 AM

Awesome. I can't wait.

Also: it's incredibly anticlimactic to let Satan stomp you to death thinking you need to kill him with each character to unlock the Golden God achievement and wanting to get all the other achievements before you do that only to discover you were rather wrong; I was saving Isaac's defeat of Satan until I'd gotten the three achievements I was missing - Spelunker Boy, Dark Boy and Mama's Boy - but when I noticed that he started with the Dice I couldn't help giving it a try. Anyway.

I've also discovered that I adore selling all my hitpoints in devil rooms, especially if I manage to find the Whore of Babylon and the Nail. Doctor Fetus is quite nice too, although I didn't get the hang of it until the third time or so. So much fun to be had with it, a Pony and the Ouija Board. Is it possible to get it in combination with the homing or mega bomb upgrades?

Varrok 04-08-2012 03:18 AM

You can combine Homing Bombs + Mega Bombs + Dr. Fetus + Ouija Board, if that's what you mean

Phylum 04-08-2012 03:50 AM

MM's post made me dig the game out. After dieing in the basement I managed to get a good run going. Chocolate milk, little sister, little child, 3 cubes of meat, 2 pretty flies and the Book of Belial make things fairly straightforward. On top of that I had maxed strength and range, a PhD, Mega Bombs, several life us and a fair number of soul hearts until I hit one nasty room in the womb.

Varrok 04-08-2012 03:55 AM

If you have lots of bombs, you can blow your way out the level you can't defeat enemies in

Phylum 04-08-2012 04:27 AM

It shouldn't have been as much trouble as it was. I stupidly moved behind a rock and got cornered. It was a bad room full of those worm bastards and flying things, but I shouldn't have taken as much damage as I did.

ie I was too close proximity to bomb by the time. When I realiesed how much trouble I was in it wasn't worth using one.

Cool. I thought Doctor Fetus might stop you finding the bomb upgrades and vice versa.

Varrok 05-28-2012 11:42 PM

So, the DLC-Expansion, Wrath of the Lamb, is up. Anyone else played it?

MeechMunchie 05-29-2012 03:37 AM

It's installing... Oh wait, now it's installed. That's a rarity for Steam.

Varrok 05-29-2012 04:04 AM

It's a bit dissapointing to lose all items and have to get 'em again...
The cool thing is there are some challenges, new enemies/rooms are at least ok
