The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth news & patch notes

Well hello there! its me! Edmund! Ive noticed some of you are VERY MAD about some recent changes to the game, and some of you are not so mad, hell some of you are even please! . so i wanted to pop in and clear up a few things. From this point forward, when we update the game with content / balances, we will make sure there is a long list as usual.. AND a short bullet point list of all the biggest changes so you can see how the buffs outweigh the nerfs, in hindsight i think if we had done that last update you may have noticed more of the improvements and let a few of the nerfs slide. that said, we do hear you.. and as an olive branch id like to offer a small little update, an update that you have control over! Tell us your top 10 most useless/horrible trinkets.. and we will buff them! Also please let us know your top 3-5 evil deals you NEVER TAKE as well! Post these in the comments here, or make a video/reddit thread and link them to me on twitter. I hope you all understand that these updates, though at times feel jarring, are a fun way to experiment with power level, balance and add challenge and excitement back to a game that many of you are still playing daily. not all changes are set in stone, but changes can keep things exciting and fresh! The team is eager to please and always listening! Stay tuned for more! ------------------------- while i'm here id like to signal boost this recent mewgenics preview video. "Mewgenics Is the Most Exciting Roguelike I’ve Played in a Long Time" -IGN Many of you responded to the trailer with "SHOW US GAMEPLAY!" and "BUT HOW DOES IT PLAY!?" well this 10 min video should give you all you need! We should be announcing a release date in the coming months via a fun lil trailer and then maybe start streaming at the end of summer to build the hype and answer questions. till then please wishlist mewgenics on steam so you get notified about our updates and help us push the game into the algorithm! xoxo -Edmund

Good morning/afternoon or evening. It is I, Tyrone. A little light reading while you're sitting on the toilet this afternoon. Alex was on there for a while today. Too much spicy Mexican, I guess. You'd think that going from v1.9.7.10 to v1.9.7.11 would be a very small incremental change. Like, "Hey, we fixed being able to drop bombs while typing in online chat, you're welcome!" But noooo, the Isaac team has been working tirelessly to bring you the following improvements: Features/Balance Changes: Adjusted the behavior of Cod Worms staying hidden for long periods of time Adjusted the behavior of Kineti to only use their rock-grabbing action if they are on screen with the player Adjusted Blood Cultists to not fire their blood attack from off screen Lowered the tear height of red champion Mega Fatty’s puke attack so that it doesn’t always fly over Isaac’s head Siren will no longer charm Isaac’s Heart or Lilith’s Incubus The Amnesia horse pill will now unidentify all previously identified pills Tainted Maggy’s bleeding hearts now provide half the charge of a regular heart container when used with Sharp Plug Tainted ??? will now swap poops and keys when using a Bombs Are Key pill Added a 1% chance for Wheel of Fortune to spawn a Crane Game Gave Punching Bag back his ability to block shots Removed Glowing Hourglass and Book of Shadows from the Tainted Lost pool Using Meat Cleaver on an angel will now award only one key piece Delirious has returned to a fixed 12-charge item. Bosses have had their health and damage overhauled. They will take 1 damage per hit and 5 damage from explosions. Spikes, fires and red poops do no damage to them. Their health will deteriorate steadily and their color will slowly turn more gray until they reach 1 health Delirium Mom’s Foot is no longer sped up when Delirium gets enraged. A minimum delay of one second has been added between transforming into the foot and the stomp attack. While in Mom’s Foot form, Delirium cannot fire additional projectiles. These same behaviors also apply to Satan’s Foot Replaced Mars’ shield bubble with i-frames which will still allow free entrance into Curse Rooms but will not allow free plays to Devil Beggars and Blood Donation Machines. Impact from a Mars dash no longer creates fissures that destroy rocks. It instead creates a ring of fire that applies the burn status effect Jar of Wisps has returned to a 12-charge item. Its first use will grant two wisps and every wisp spawned has a high chance to be of a special variety. Pausing the game with Gitched Crown will not pause the item rotation, and will instead give the rotation a burst of speed Adjusted the proc chances of several Abyss locusts that were too powerful Knockback from farting locusts has been increased Adjusted the stat boost from Star of Bethlehem to match Hallowed Ground Wisps spawned from The Bean and Kidney Bean will now expire when changing rooms Completing a Secret Room with a Greed fight will now allow access to adjacent Challenge Rooms Added enemy spawn indicators for Boss Rush, Challenge Rooms, Great Gideon and Greed Mode Golden keys and bombs can now be spent at the Key Master and Bomb Bum to guarantee an item drop Item charging with Battery Bum while holding multiple active items now prioritizes filling up each item before overcharging Pause (the active item) now synergizes with Black Powder allowing circles to be drawn while a room is paused Added a very low chance for most bosses to drop a thematic item on death Increased the range of Dr. Fetus with Number One and Pluto Ludovico Technique now grants a .2 shot speed increase If the Mega Satan door has been been opened, using Forget Me Now and restarting the floor will keep door opened Increased the rarity of D20 in the Greed Shop Added an option in options.ini to disable the Ascent voiceover Fully rerolling a character with D4, D100, Dice Room, Missing No., etc. will no longer reroll the starting passive items of a character if they have unlocked them. Using a Stars? card will also not consume starting passives. Starting active items can be rerolled. The items that will not be rerolled are: Cain: Lucky Foot Eve: Whore of Babylon and Dead Bird Samson: Bloody Lust Lazarus: Anemic The Lost: Holy Mantle Lilith: Incubus and Cambion Conception Bethany: Book of Virtues Using Clicker to change characters now provides that character’s intrinsic passive items. These items are lost when changing characters again. Reduced the chance of Clicker removing the most recently acquired item to 50% Added various new sound effects Daily Runs: Using Meat Cleaver during daily runs will cause each resulting split monster to give half of its normal score Frozen enemies will count as being killed and will award score in daily runs Killing Uriel and Gabriel during a daily run will now only award score the first time each is killed Stage bonus in daily runs has been modified to accommodate different end goals Stage bonus is fixed for each stage. XL stages now award the stage bonus for both floors. Using a Forget Me Now or a 5-pip Dice Room will not award additional stage bonus Using a Forget Me Now during a daily run will now award half the exploration bonus during the repeated floor. Any additional replayed floors will not grant any exploration bonus Fixed an issue where using Forget Me Now on the final floor of a daily run would result in an incorrect time on the score summary Fixed an issue where quitting a practice daily would reset the daily win streak Exploration bonus from red rooms opened with Red Key, Crystal Key, Soul of Cain and the Moon? is capped at 2,000 points, after which they award no exploration bonus Added Alt Path, Home and Delirium to the daily rotation. The new schedule is: Monday: Mother Tuesday: Tainted Characters Wednesday: Delirium Thursday: Home Friday: Hard Mode Saturday: Grab Bag (random character, end goal, difficulty) Sunday: Mega Satan Bug Fixes: Fixed an issue where Glowing Hourglass was not expending charges correctly in some scenarios Fixed an issue where Gigante Bean would apply to enemy farts Fixed an issue with Jacob and Esau classic controls that would cause cards and active items to be used together Fixed an issue where dashing items were not properly stopping when attacking Mega Satan head-on Fixed an issue where R Key could be used while picking up an active item, allowing both the active to be acquired and the R Key to be used Fixed an issue where Wall Creep and Blind Creep would infinitely devolve into each other Fixed an issue where using Genesis after a completed Ultra Greed fight would completely reset the floor Fixed several issues which allowed Lemegaton wisps to exceed their cap Fixed an issue where Lemegeton item effects were retained after using Genesis Fixed an issue where mapping items granted by Lemegeton would not activate until entering the next floor Fixed an issue where shrunken champion enemies could still damage Isaac when killed Fixed an issue where Tainted Eve would not refund the appropriate amount of health if Rotten Hearts were turned into clots Fixed an issue where leaving the room while a crane game was paying out could result in the item dropping but the machine not advancing Fixed an issue where Tainted characters would not receive charges to their eternal item from Battery Bum unless they were holding another active item Fixed an issue where taking too many of a single pill type could prevent the run from being exited and continued Fixed an issue where Vanishing Twin could spawn an item pedestal on the same tile as the trapdoor Fixed an issue where Dead Bird could persist between rooms if the player had only soul hearts Fixed an issue where Monstro’s Lung would fire arching shots from Ipecac and Haemolacrya directly at Isaac’s feet Fixed a softlock that could occur when using Eraser on Dogma Fixed an exploit with The Bloat’s hitbox that allowed players to safely stand on top of him while repeating the same attack Fixed a softlock that would occur when using Dataminer to reroll Dad’s Note Fixed an issue where Echo Chamber’s stored effects were lost when exiting and resuming a run Fixed an audible skip when looping the Mother fight, Isaac fight and Devil Deal music Fixed an issue where jumping into the Mother fight played a teleport sound effect Fixed a desync with Plum Flute and Book of Virtues Fixed an issue where status effects were double applied in some cases when entering a new room Fixed an issue where players could get golden trinkets from champion monsters before they were unlocked Fixed an issue where bombs could be dropped when typing in online chat Fixed an issue where Lil’ Portal could spawn directly in front of doorways Fixed some issues with Found Soul and Clot familiar positioning when teleporting between rooms Fixed an issue where Found Soul was able to get and lose Abyss locusts Fixed an issue where Epiphora was not resetting when changing firing direction Fixed another instance where the D4 could change the pool ID of items, allowing them to be rerolled into a specific pool Fixed an issue where Mama Mega and Flat File effects could persist into deathmatch Fixed a crash when using Clicker, gulped trinkets and Jacob/Esau Fixed an issue where Milk! was higher priority in the familiar order than Incubus Fixed incorrect challenge names displaying when creating an online game Selected challenge name now appears in lobby list details Fixed an issue where the number of quints could be exceeded and turned into followers for Tainted Lazarus Fixed an issue where the chance for Glitter Bombs to drop a consumable was reset when exiting and continuing a run Fixed an issue where Glitched Crown removed items from pools when encountering story items Fixed several crashes that could occur with a C-Section and Spirit Sword combo Removed Urn of Souls from Metronome payouts Perfection progress is no longer interrupted by Lost Soul, Strawman or Soul of the Forgotten taking damage Guppy’s Eye now correctly updates the contents of chests when the D1 is used Fixed an issue where kills from a Gello whip would not give Jar of Flies a fly Fixed an issue where the Blue Womb shop was not an appropriate variant when playing Tainted Keeper Adjusted Mega Satan’s phase 2 fire attacks making their visual line up more closely to their hitbox Fixed frozen enemies not properly triggering the on-kill effects of Charm of the Vampire, Lusty Blood, Toxic Shock, Jar of Flies, Samson’s Lock, Eve’s Bird Foot, Bat Wing, Sigil of Baphomet, Vasculitis, Death’s List, Berserk!, Red Stew, 4.5 Volt and Jumper Cables Thanks to everyone who pointed out issues and made suggestions!

It’s me, Tyrone, here to tell you about some stuff. The good stuff We've been hard at work on the next patch for Repentance+, and there’s a lot coming your way. There are loads of bug fixes, optimizations to online modes, balance tweaking and feature improvements that we hope veteran and beginner players will both appreciate. Here’s one cool addition that you can look forward to. You know how the Key Master and Bomb Beggar often get overlooked, because you don’t want to use up too many of your resources to keep gambling for their big payouts? Well, pretty soon you’ll be able to pay them with a golden bomb or key to receive their item payout instantly – at the cost of that golden status, of course. There are some more changes in store that I can’t tell you about just yet, but please look forward to the next update. Some of you may have seen us messing around with AI-controlled Isaac over on my Twitch stream. We’ve enabled chat commands, where viewers can make Isaac move to specific spots, attack, bomb and use his active item, all through Twitch chat. It’s been fun watching the community try to complete runs together. We’re working on more ways for chat to interact and team up. If you have specific commands you’d like to suggest, please let us know. More to come on that, too! Now here is Edmund to talk a little bit about a project that’s near and dear to his heart: his next game, Mewgenics. -------------------------------------------- Edmund here. Sorry for hijacking the Isaac blog. I promise to only do it one more time. So, for those of you who don’t know, I’ve been working for a very long time on an endless cat-breeding RPG called Mewgenics. If you love Isaac, you’re going to feel right at home in this one. Mewgenics is built with the replayability, randomization and strategic depth that made Isaac so addictive. It has branching paths, tons of items, spells and mutations to discover. The game genre is completely different, but it’s designed to keep you coming back again and again, just like Isaac. Mewgenics actually takes place in the same town where Isaac and his mother lived. So if you’ve spent any time getting lost in the lore of Isaac, there are definitely some cool connections to watch for. And the soundtrack by Ridiculon is the best they’ve ever done. If you’re someone who loves the challenge of Isaac’s endless replayability, and enjoys unlocking new items and exploring new combinations, I really think Mewgenics is going to scratch that same itch. There’s an absurd amount of depth, and you can easily sink hundreds of hours into the game without seeing everything we crammed in there. It’s got the same charm, the same humor and the layers of complexity you’ve come to expect from my stuff. It really feels like the culmination of my experience making games. If you haven't seen the Mewgenics trailer I just released, please check it out and share it with your friends and family. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how familiar it feels, even though it’s something new. Go add it to your Steam wishlist and get ready because it's finally coming! Alright, that’s enough from me for now. Stay tuned for the next Repentance+ patch, and keep an eye out for more updates on Mewgenics! And here's the link ONE MORE TIME! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6743820/b709f3ae1930f6a997207731438bcdda5eaeac27.jpg

Sorry for the delay in posting this update(got a little sick, I blame Alex). It was more important to get you the patch than to hold it up with patch notes. Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where Berkano locusts could persist when used with Glowing Hourglass Fixed an issue causing The Stairway, Card Reading, and Isaac’s Tomb to not function properly Fixed an issue where the Karma trinket could show up in daily runs and challenges if the trinket pool was depleted Fixed an issue where force quitting a daily run would not reset the win streak counter Fixed an issue where the restock machine would still double reroll if destroyed via coins instead of bombs For Modders Game():RerollEnemy(Entity) no longer crashes Added Lua enums for Deathmatch and Lil Portal backdrops, NUM_BACKDROPS now works as intended Level:AddCurse() will now apply the modded curse instead of always applying Curse of the Unknown EntityPlayer:QueueItem() no longer crashes ItemPool:RemoveTrinket now properly removes modded trinkets Setting the challenge mid-run can now properly set to the ID of a modded challenge log.txt no longer logs an error if all attributes are not provided Updated the Lua ButtonAction enum to match what's in code Fixed an issue where wrong kerning value could get applied to a character set

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6743820/bb071b860f52f1f963884da1ebf18d7b5112c38e.png Herro, it is I Tyrone. As promised, the new Repentance+ free DLC update is here, today, now! You’ll need all the previous DLC to run it. This is a full-featured release, but we’re calling it a Beta still, because we’re still looking to refine things and squash any remaining bugs. You can do your part to help us by reporting any bugs, desyncs or crashes to [email protected] with the subject line #Repentance+Beta v1.9.7.4 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6743820/cdd5bf5495040a851a21f2d88c5cbe555006a6b8.jpg Please Include the version number in the subject line and be as detailed as possible when describing the issue. An example of a bad bug report would be “I crashed when fighting Monstro.” A much more useful explanation for the devs would be “In an online match with 3 players, I crashed when I used Crack the Sky during the Monstro fight.” Include the seed if possible and your crash log that can be found here: Documents\My Games\Binding of Isaac Repentance+\crash_dumps. This helps us greatly in focusing on the issue at hand and getting it resolved quickly. If you played the Isaac Online Alpha back in January, you already know how some of the online stuff works. But a lot more features have been added since then, including support for all game modes, lots of filtering options (when creating or searching for an online match) and a new emote wheel (press the left Alt key or click the Right Stick on a controller to access it). We even added separate “group” leaderboards for online Daily Runs. And that ain’t all. Look for lots of balancing adjustments and item upgrades—all buffs!—that’ll turn some of your least favorite items into some of your new favorites. Details in the changelog below. Also, some Commonly Asked Questions below (Edmund calls them CAQ, rhymes Ipecac!) We’re going to have lots of fun playing Isaac online together. See you in the basement! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6743820/47b44b3171810c1001e348f2e4a191d8334bd65c.png Q: What can I do online? A: What you do online is between you and your webcam. But as it related to Isaac, you can play Normal, Hard, Greed, Greedier or Challenges as well as Daily Runs and seeded runs with up to three friends or with strangers. Q: Can I earn achievements in online play? A: Yes! All unlocks that can be earned in solo play can also be earned online. Be aware that you’ll have to be in a match from the beginning in order to be eligible for unlocks; joining a run in progress does not allow achievements to be unlocked. Q: Are there things in online play that don’t appear in solo play? A: Online play has a few differences from solo play. Defeated bosses will drop an item for each player in the match. If a match is joined in progress, the new player will be granted several items to catch them up based on how far along the run is. Players can spend coins at the revive machine in the starting room of each floor to bring back dead players. Be warned, however, that the cost goes up each time the machine is used. Defeating a boss at the end of the stage will also revive any dead players. There might be some other special things to discover online as well! Q: Do I need the online achievements to unlock Dead God? A: If you have not yet completed your Dead God file, you will need the online achievements in order to get it. If you already have Dead God, you will not need the online achievements in order to keep it. Q: Can I play with mods online? A: No, all mods must be disabled and the game restarted in order to play online. Q: Where are my mods? A: Repentance+ has its own mods folder located here: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\My Games\Binding of Isaac Repentance+\mods however, it is empty. Mod creators will need to update their mods for compatibility. If you copy Repentance or AB+ mods into this folder, you DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK as things are likely to break. Q: Did anything change in solo play? A: Yes! There are many item improvements and reworks to experiment with, and many fixes and quality-of-life adjustments made to both solo and online play. Q: What if I desync or find a bug? A: If you encounter any issues, please submit a report! Send an email to [email protected] with the subject line: #Repentance+Beta v1.9.7.4 (or newer if you are on a more current version) Be as detailed as possible in your report, including what occurred and when, a seed, what items players had and any relevant files. Zip the desync log found here: Documents\My Games\Binding of Isaac Repentance+\online_logs Crashes should generate two files, a .txt file and and .dmp file. They are located here: Documents\My Games\Binding of Isaac Repentance+\crash_dumps {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6743820/d2327493f7749a626d442b8bcd0c4a9e8e6648c8.png CHANGELOG Item Changes: Tammy’s Head - Reduced the duration of the animation when using Tammy’s Head, allowing Isaac to fire more quickly after use. Lemon Mishap - Slightly increased the size of the puddle. Also, the puddle will now persist until Isaac exits the room. Mega Bean - Creates a catastrophic fart that sweeps the entire room. Milk! - The familiar now follows closely behind Isaac and blocks shots. After 10 hits, the glass will break and give Isaac a Tears upgrade for the remainder of the floor. Delirious - Summoned bosses will now persist through rooms. Only one boss can be active at a time. The charge is now variable, based on the quality of the previously summoned boss. Jar of Wisps - Reduced to a 6-room charge, allowing the wisps to stack up to the maximum number more quickly. Abyss - Item quality now impacts the damage of the summoned locust. Locusts now inherit many different effects based on the item destroyed by Abyss. Flip - Charge has been reduced to 4 rooms for Tainted Lazarus only. Portable Slot - Removed from the Shop pool. Added as a possible reward from slot machines. Void - Charge has been reduced from 6 rooms to 4. Epiphora - The Tears upgrade from firing in a single direction is now a smooth increase, instead of being staggered every few seconds. God’s Flesh - Doubled the chance of shrink tears firing. Shrunken enemies now briefly flash white before growing back to full size. Enemies that explode, fire shots or summon minions on death can no longer hurt Isaac if they’re killed while shrunken. Hushy - While held in place, Hushy now fires radial bursts of shots. It Hurts - After taking damage, Isaac’s tears will now leave behind small pools of blood creep for the room. Mars - In addition to being invulnerable when charging, Isaac will gain a 1-second bubble of invulnerability after the charge. Hitting obstacles also causes a knockback effect to clear any threats from the surrounding area. Evil Charm - Isaac now gains immunity to spider-web slowdown, flame attacks, fireplaces and poison mushrooms. Isaac can also stand in enemy creep for 1 second before taking damage. Vasculitis - Friendly radial shots fired after killing an enemy will now appear as blood clots to more easily distinguish them. Lil’ Portal - Has been completely reworked. Double-tapping a fire button is now required to launch Lil’ Portal. After it has consumed enough items and the room is clear, a single portal will spawn and the familiar will now disappear for the remainder of the floor. Entering this portal now takes Isaac to a room where he can pick up or drop off items. This room persists throughout the rest of the current run. Linger Bean - The fart cloud is now deployed after 4 seconds of continuous fire (instead of 7 seconds). The cloud starts small and potent, and will grow and deal reduced damage over the course of 10 seconds. Jupiter - Now heals 2 red hearts instead of just ½. Butter Bean - Recharge time has been reduced from 3 seconds to 2. The Bean - Can now be re-used after a 4-second cooldown (instead of a room charge). Kidney Bean - Can now be re-used after a 4-second cooldown (instead of a room charge). Dead Bird - Will remain active between rooms as long as the player is at ½ heart. (Note: Eve requires 1 full heart.) Data Miner - Using Data Miner in a room with an item pedestal will now reroll it into a glitched item. Fixes: Bomb rocks can now create bridges across chasms. Fixed a bug where Technology 2 and Mom’s Eye could cause backward-firing shots to do excessive damage. Fixed an issue with the D4 unintentionally being able to force all items in a particular pool to reroll. Parasitoid egg sacs can now be created from Technology shots and Brimstone beams. When picking up cards/pills/runes with tainted characters who carry eternal items, the consumable is now placed behind the item and can be manually selected, avoiding unintentional uses. The Tick trinket can now be removed by picking up the Lighter trinket. The 404 Error trinket now shows which trinket it is emulating. The Short Fuse trinket now makes Bombs deal 15% more damage. The number of hits required to make the Tonsil trinket create a familiar has been reduced from 12-20 to 6-12. Increased the chances of the Wish Bone and Bag Lunch trinkets spawning an item. Lil Delirium now contributes to the Conjoined transformation. Once it’s been unlocked, the Void portal is now guaranteed after defeating The Lamb, ??? and Mega Satan. Added several new Eden hairstyles. Fixed Hush attacking more aggressively than intended when below 50% HP. Fixed Pay to Play challenge incorrectly requiring Mr. Mega to be unlocked. Removed E. Coli from Scat Man challenge, as it made the player virtually invincible. Fixed enemy tear projectiles not having the same collision size as blood projectiles. Fixed being able to reroll some enemies that shouldn't be rerollable (i.e. Eternal Flies, evolved Blood Puppies and Rag Mega's purple light beam attack) Reverted Flesh Death Head's base HP from 30 back to its original value of 50. Increased the shadow size of Ultra Greed's coins to make them easier to see when falling. Ultra Greed's coins can now be devolved into coin pickups using the D10. Stone Eyes now do a full turn before they start firing their laser. (This prevents some unfair damage scenarios when entering a room from the bottom door.) Fixed Shell Games showing an outdated sprite when the prize is Skatole. Added Skeleton Key, Best Bud, Angry Fly and Sharp Key to the Key Beggar's prize pool. Fixed several items that were missing from Greed Mode's item pools. Added several baby familiars to the Baby Shop pool which were previously missing, and removed Sacrificial Dagger from the Baby Shop pool. Fixed Guppy transformation not granting flight when obtained from Kid's Drawing. Fixed Candy Heart and Soul Locket not updating stats when dropped and picked back up. Adjusted the price of several items in the Stairway shop. Lowered the devil price of Ocular Rift. Lowered the shop price of D12 and Pause in Greed Mode. Fixed D Infinity displaying the wrong number of charges when first picked up. Fixed Death's List, Sanguine Bond and Member Card not working with Tainted Lazarus when held by his inactive form. Made Goat Head, D7, Poke Go, Child's Heart, Mom's Pearl, Black Lipstick and Bible Tract unobtainable in Greed Mode. Made the Amnesia and ??? pills unobtainable in Greed Mode. Fixed Bird's Eye, Cube Baby, Poke Go and Blood Puppy not being summonable by Lemegeton. Fixed several familiars not being summonable by Monster Manual. Lowered the mimic charge of Soul of Judas from 3 to 2. Lowered the mimic charge of Hematemesis from 6 to 4. Increased the mimic charge of The Tower? from 3 to 4. Increased the health and damage of wisps spawned when using Mega Blast and Delirious with the Book of Virtues. Made adjustments to several unfair rooms, oddly configured rooms that would very rarely spawn, and added several new rooms. Added a SMALL amount of boss armor to ???, The Lamb and Mother. Why are you still reading? Go play with yourself and/or your friends :)

ISAAC NENDOROID!

im a huge action figurine fan and goodsmile has always been the pinnacle of articulated figurines ( i have a full collection of overwatch figures by them! ) so as you might assume, turning isaac into a Nendoroid was a HUGE bucket list item for me! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/3871154/b76bed34c834a8abf3c24de303d83e3344eb6db9.jpg Preorders have started today and those who preorder gain access to 2 limited edition four souls cards and a really neato backdrop. grab your figure here. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/3871154/104450e71280004333c0351dbe403b9e6f427e3a.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/3871154/f5c3fc2bedce1cc85c7b5368dd45b398c49546b5.jpg

MEWGENICS!

For those of you unaware, I've been working on a new roguelike for the last 6 years called Mewgenics. its a turn based strategy rpg that is hyper focused on replayability, in many ways it feels like an extension of what isaac is so i think there will be a good deal of overlap with isaac fans. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/3871154/3f08248ea8567a13b83049ac7087d45bd27b3ce0.jpg if this is at all interesting to you, please wishlist mewgenics on steam and check out all our dev blog updates. wishlisting really helps us get visibility on release so dont neglect it if you like what you see :) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/3871154/63c7cc44c6e57d71c61ac1e1c69855e2e2bbd45c.jpg

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6743820/d097b5aae1b7912fc5300640a06822cc15957c72.png Welcome back to the Isaac Online BetaAlpha! We have some bug fixes and game improvements ready for you all! As mentioned last time, this is a Beta Alpha, so not all planned features and game modes are available right now. We also STRONGLY RECOMMEND that all players participating in the Beta Alpha make backup copies of your save data files in a safe folder. For those who have made backups but lost their progress marks, the steps to get your back is at the end of this post.

Here's how to start playing online: Step 1: Have The Binding of Isaac: Repentance installed in your Steam Library Step 2: right-click on the title in your library and select Properties Step 3: go to the Betas tab and type the beta key into the Private Betas box and click Check Code. Step 4: Click the button that will appear that says "Opt in to . You should then also see in the Betas Participation box in that same tab. Following this, your game should update, and the next time you launch it you should see "Online Beta" at the title screen, and the "Online" option at the main menu. To return to the standard release version of Repentance, simply open the Betas tab again and set the Betas Participation tab to "None". Be sure to use the new password: theyvegonetoplaid Keep reading if you need help with other stuff! See you online XOXO. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6743820/2c29d409f79af7c4a3014bfb98b58d1aafe6b682.png Lost Completion Marks Here are the steps that should help in restoring your missing Completion Marks, if this issue has affected you. Step 1: Have your save file backups handy! Hopefully you heeded our advice in the Online Beta announcement post to make save file backups before joining the Beta, because without them, this method will not work. Step 2: In your Steam library, right click on The Binding of Isaac and open the ‘Properties’ window Step 3: On the ‘General’ Properties tab, click on the ‘Steam Cloud’ switch to temporarily disable the Steam Cloud function. Step 4: Open the folder where your active Binding of Isaac save files are kept. Take the backup save file you want to use, and copy it into this folder. Rename this file “persistentgamedata1.dat” for it to take the place of your slot 1 save. For save slots 2 and 3, copy backup saves to this folder and rename them “persistentgamedata2.dat” and “persistentgamedata3.dat”, respectively. Step 5: Next, launch the game. At the save file select screen, you should now see your backup save files restored, and when you go to the character select screen, you should see your Completion Marks restored as well. Step 6: Close the game, then open the ‘Properties” window again, and click the Steam Cloud switch again to turn the Steam Cloud function back on. Step 7: Launch the game again. Steam should notify you that the Steam Cloud files and local files do not match, and will prompt you to proceed with either the local files or the cloud files. Choose ‘local files’, and the backup saves you just copied will overwrite the Steam Cloud files. From there, the game should again function normally, with your Completion Marks restored.

https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/6743820/74cee1c809773c22a030ad0057d7cbccec556a50.png It is me, your amigo, Tyrone Hello and welcome to the Binding of Isaac Online Beta! The Nicalis team has been hard at work getting Online working for your favorite game. This beta program is for anyone who owns Repentance on Windows+Steam. This free update allows you to play the game in co-op multiplayer mode online, with friends and/or other players online. I want to go over some details regarding the Online Beta here. This will be a longer post, but I'm hoping you make the time to read it as it will be useful for your experience. SAVE BACKUP Before you start, please keep in mind that this is a Beta, and not all features may be available right away. We also STRONGLY RECOMMEND that all players participating in the Beta make backup copies of your save data files in a safe folder, in the event of any bugs that could cause you to lose hard-earned progress. https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/6743820/7384f0c98955d5dda574cbb42468106b76819ad8.png BETA SCHEDULE The team will continue to work towards a release candidate into the future. That said, the beta will generally be available two weeks out of each month and offline the other two weeks. The Nicalis team will work on fixes and improvements from feedback and bug reports during the Beta. So please send whatever you can find :) A new opt-in password will be posted here or on my Twitter account, X, whatever you wan to call it, around the end of each month for the subsequent version. This cycle will repeat until we feel online mode is ready for its official release, near the end of 2024. BUG REPORTING This is VERY IMPORTANT and I can't stress how much we would love your help to make the online experience better for everyone. Where to report bugs: [email protected] Subject line: #IsaacOnlineBeta 1.9.1 https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/6743820/bc546d67c2812cb2bd01231497058b6b9dcb503c.png The subject is very specific for filtering, to ensure it gets seen and properly flagged by the Nicalis development team. - Do not add any spaces between words in the hashtag. - Do not change any format of the subject line, such as removing the hashtag - Do not create your own subject line For example: Yes: #IsaacOnlineBeta 1.9.1 NO: #Isaaac Online Beta1.9.1, #IsaacOnline Beta, #OnlineBeta, #BetaIsaac, I found a bug in Isaac We need the exact string in quotes "#IsaacOnlineBeta 1.9.1" (without the quotes). The only thing that will change for your subject line with future updates will be the version number. BUG DETAILS OK, so your game crashed, desynced or something else—describe the issue as thoroughly as you can, and include the seed number if possible. Including links to videos or screenshots of your bug can also be very helpful to us. Please DO NOT attach large files as they'll get filtered and deleted. As a reminder, this mode is in beta and bug encounters are expected, so we highly recommend making copies of your save data files in a safe backup folder. Details about this at the top of this post, in case you missed it We know most of you are not professional testers and that's OK :) but the more info you can provide in your bug reports, the quicker we can fix bugs in online mode. Here are some example bug reports: Great!: game crashed on Caves 2 when picking up Breakfast item after beating the boss boss was Peep seed was XYZW-0123 3 players: Isaac, Azazel, and ???. Isaac and Azazel were in for entire match, ??? joined on Basement 2 happened immediately after pickup animation finished log file and save data are attached Good: game crashed on Caves 2 when picking up an item 3 players: Isaac, Azazel, and ??? happened after the pickup animation finished Bad: game crashed In these three examples, the last one "bad" is completely unusable as a bug report. We can't do anything to fix it without more details. PLAYABLE MODES For the initial beta release, Normal mode will be available to play in Online Beta mode. We plan to make more game modes available in 2024. ACHIEVEMENTS AND UNLOCKS IN ONLINE Achievements will still be available in Online Beta, with some caveats. Players who join a match already in progress will not earn achievements for that run. A special icon will appear to let you know that you will not receive achievements for the current run. COMPLETION MARKS Completion marks will be available in Online Beta, but these ones will not cross over with the ones that appear on your singleplayer character select screen. Online multiplayer will have its own separate collection of completion marks! Similar to achievements, players who join a match in progress will not earn completion marks for that run. UI UPDATES We've made UI and HUD changes for online. Several options have been added to the Options Menu to make this UI more customizable, including making the display HUD for your co-op partners' health meters and pocket items more compact, more minimal, or even hidden if you prefer. VERSION COMPATIBILITY The Online Beta is being developed for The Binding of Isaac: Repentance, and will not be available for past versions (Rebirth, Afterbirth, Afterbirth+) ever. This update does not include new content such as additional new items, characters, etc. However, the Online Multiplayer does have a few updated game mechanics to improve the fun of playing Isaac in co-op mode. ONLINE BETA OPT-IN With all that out of the way, how do you play? https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/6743820/a86635110ce56a7b6640d8886f0dd9b595e7402f.png Step 1: Have The Binding of Isaac: Repentance installed in your Steam Library Step 2: right-click on the title in your library and select Properties Step 3: go to the Betas tab and type the beta key into the Private Betas box and click Check Code.

To return to the standard release version of Repentance, simply open the Betas tab again and set the Betas Participation tab to "None". That's it! I think?

G-G-G-G-G-FUEL! It's me, Tyrone; I've logged into the Steam backend to give you an update on, um, the 1.7.9 update. Welcome to the long-time-coming Repentance update! Below you'll find probably the single biggest update since its release! Highly recommend you scan through below to see what's been updated, changed and improved. Some highlights include: C Section fetuses now only deal 75% damage every 10 frames Lil Dumpy now has a secondary, larger detection radius that can cause it to randomly trigger from nearby enemy projectiles.

General fixes: -Vengeful Spirit deals a lot more contact damage, before it was dealing much less than intended -hostile enemies spawned glitch items no longer deal instant damage, so the player gets a small amount of time to get away from them - Fixed Vanishing Twin being able to turn into Dark Esau - Fixed Locust of War + Brimstone Bombs being able to damage the player when spawned by Cricket Leg - Fixed a bug which caused the first two floors of the alternate path to always share the same variant, making it impossible to see both Downpour and Dross in the same run General modding changes: - Mods are now stored in a "mods" folder in the same directory as the rest of the game files - This directory can be easily accessed by right clicking The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth in the Steam library, then clicking on "Properties", "Local Files", and finally "Browse..." - Mod save data is now stored separately in a "data" folder, meaning that updating or unsubscribing from a mod will no longer cause its save data to be wiped - The name of the subfolder used to store save data is determined by the "directory" property in metadata.xml - Added a loading screen that appears when installing or updating mods from Steam Workshop XML changes: - Players (players.xml) - Added the following properties: - broken: Number of broken hearts this player begins with - pocketActive: Gives this player the specified starting active item in the pocket item slot - birthright: The unique description that should be displayed when this character picks up Birthright - bSkinParent: If present, marks this character as the "tainted" version of the regular character that bears the specified name - Usually, this should be set to the same name as the character, unless the tainted and regular version of this character bear different names - If there is no regular character to attach to, this character will not be available in the character selection menu - hidden: If set to "true", hides this character from the character selection menu - Custom coop selection graphics can be set for all modded characters by supplying the following animation file (non-tainted characters only): - "content/Coop Menu.anm2": Must contain one animation per character, each animation must bear the same name as the character it was made for - Custom menu graphics can be set for tainted characters by supplying the following animation files: - "content/CharacterMenuAlt.anm2" - "content/CharacterPortraitsAlt.anm2" - "content/Death Screen Alt.anm2" - "content/Coop Menu Alt.anm2" - "content/CharacterMenu.anm2" and "content/CharacterMenuAlt.anm2" no longer require a "Background" layer as the game now renders the paper background automatically - Items (items.xml) - Added the following properties: - shopprice: Sets a custom shop price for this item - initcharge: Overrides the initial charge for this item (this can be used for active items that do not start with a full charge) - chargetype: Can be set one of the following 3 values: normal (recharges on room clear), timed (recharges over time), special (never recharges automatically, cannot be recharged by batteries or item effects) - passivecache: If set to true on an active item, evaluates the player's stats on pickup like a passive item rather than when using the item - hidden: If set to true, cannot be obtained in game unless explicitly spawned or given to the player - persistent: If set to true, temporary effects tied to this item persist between rooms - quality: Sets the quality of this item (0 to 4, where 0 is the lowest quality and 4 is the highest) - tags: Adds one or more tags to this item (see items_metadata.xml for reference) Lua changes: - Added a new include() function which acts like a "raw" version of require() and will always load the specified file even if it was loaded before - Fixed the spelling of EntityPlayer:GetMaxPocketItems() and EntityPlayer:DropPocketItem() * Previous spellings are still present for backwards compatibility but should no longer be used - Sprite:SetFrame() can now be called with only an int argument, this will adjust the current frame for the current animation without stopping it - Vector multiplication is now commutative (number * vector is a valid operation) and supports element-wise vector by vector multiplication - Color(R, G, B, A, RO, GO, BO) has been updated: - Only the first three arguments (R, G, B) are required, A defaults to 1 when omitted - The offset parameters (RO, GO, BO) default to 0 when omitted and are now in the 0-1 range instead of 0-255 for consistency - Mods that use this feature will need to be updated - Added constants Vector.Zero, Vector.One and Color.Default for convenience purposes - Updated Isaac.GetPlayerTypeByName(string Name, boolean Tainted = false) - If Tainted is omitted or set to false, only matches non-tainted characters - If Tainted is set to true, only matches tainted characters - Tear flags are now represented by the BitSet128 data type, this was a necessary change due 64 bits no longer being enough to hold every tear effect in the game - Most AB+ mods should be backwards compatible, however due to a limitation from Lua, expressions such as "Tear.TearFlags & TearFlags.TEAR_POISON == 0" no longer work correctly - This can be quickly fixed by either replacing "==" with "<=", replacing 0 with TearFlags.TEAR_NORMAL, or using the convenience functions below - The following convenience functions have been added: - void Entity_Tear:AddTearFlags(BitSet128 Flags) - void Entity_Tear:ClearTearFlags(BitSet128 Flags) - boolean Entity_Tear:HasTearFlags(BitSet128 Flags) - void Entity_Bomb:AddTearFlags(BitSet128 Flags) - void Entity_Bomb:ClearTearFlags(BitSet128 Flags) - boolean Entity_Bomb:HasTearFlags(BitSet128 Flags) - void Entity_Laser:AddTearFlags(BitSet128 Flags) -

MC_GET_SHADER_PARAMS will now only skip remaining callbacks when returning a table - Updated arguments passed to MC_USE_CARD (int CardId, EntityPlayer Player, int UseFlags) - Updated arguments passed to MC_USE_PILL (int PillId, EntityPlayer Player, int UseFlags) - Updated arguments passed to MC_PRE_USE_ITEM (int ItemId, RNG ItemRng, EntityPlayer Player, int UseFlags, int ActiveSlot, int CustomVarData) - Updated arguments passed to MC_USE_ITEM (int ItemId, RNG ItemRng, EntityPlayer Player, int UseFlags, int ActiveSlot, int CustomVarData) - If a table is returned instead of a boolean, the following fields can be set to a non-nil value for extra functionality: - Discharge: Determines whether the item should be discharged or not after being used - Remove: Determines whether the item should be removed from the player or not after being used - ShowAnim: Plays the default use animation if set to true (equivalent to simply returning true in AB+) - Updated PlayerTypes.ActiveItemDesc - Added: - int TimedRechargeCooldown: Number of frames before an item with a timed cooldown can recharge again (used by Spin To Win to pause its recharge after fully discharging it) - float PartialCharge: How close the item is to gaining another charge (0-1 range, used by 4.5 Volt) - int VarData: Holds extra information for some active items (such as the number of uses for Jar of Wisps) - Removed: - boolean Lock - Updated EntityPickup: - Added: - int OptionsPickupIndex: Any non-zero value causes the item to form an option group with any other item with the same OptionsPickupIndex value. When an item belonging to an option group is picked up, all other items belonging to the same group disappear. 0 is the default value and means the item doesn't belong to any group. - Removed: - boolean TheresOptionsPickup: see above - Updated GridEntity: - Added: - RNG GetRNG() * The object returned from this function is now a reference rather than a copy - Sprite GetSprite() * Same as above - Removed: - RNG RNG - Sprite Sprite - Updated Sprite: - Added: - string GetAnimation() - string GetOverlayAnimation() - Updated EntityPlayer: - Added: - void ChangePlayerType(PlayerType Type) - void AddBrokenHearts(int Num) - int GetBrokenHearts() - void AddRottenHearts(int Num) - int GetRottenHearts() - boolean CanPickRottenHearts() - void AddSoulCharge(int Num) - void SetSoulCharge(int Num) - int GetSoulCharge() - int GetEffectiveSoulCharge() - void AddBloodCharge(int Num) - void SetBloodCharge(int Num) - int GetBloodCharge() - int GetEffectiveBloodCharge() - EntityPlayer GetMainTwin() - EntityPlayer GetOtherTwin() - boolean TryHoldEntity(Entity Ent) - Entity ThrowHeldEntity(Vector Velocity) - EntityFamiliar AddFriendlyDip(int Subtype, Vector Position) - EntityFamiliar ThrowFriendlyDip(int Subtype, Vector Position, Vector Target = Vector.Zero) - EntityFamiliar AddWisp(int Subtype, Vector Position, boolean AdjustOrbitLayer = false, boolean DontUpdate = false) - EntityFamiliar AddItemWisp(int Subtype, Vector Position, boolean AdjustOrbitLayer = false) - void TriggerBookOfVirtues(CollectibleType Type = CollectibleType.COLLECTIBLE_NULL) - EntityFamiliar AddSwarmFlyOrbital(Vector Position) - int GetNumGigaBombs() - void AddGigaBombs(int Num) - CollectibleType GetModelingClayEffect() - void AddCurseMistEffect() - void RemoveCurseMistEffect() - boolean HasCurseMistEffect() - boolean IsCoopGhost() - EntityFamiliar AddMinisaac(Vector Position, boolean PlayAnim = true) - void SetPocketActiveItem(CollectibleType Type, ActiveSlot Slot = ActiveSlot.SLOT_POCKET, boolean KeepInPools = false) - Updated all enums (see enums.lua) - Many more additions and changes to existing functions, the full list of changes can be found here: https://pastebin.com/748vEEdR
