Yep, complete with the clit instead of a head. (Edmund is a pretty fucked up guy.)

It's permanent by the way - it's like you unlocked that feature.

This update fixes the wall bug and saving issues added more options to controls and other minor fixes
I just beat The Womb for the first time, with Cain. Clearly it was the LASER EYES that did the trick. Having a 1-UP in a game with permadeath makes me feel so much more relaxed.

achievements work fine for me...weird stuff. Hope you guys figure it out.
Just finished the entire game, all characters unlocked now. Now to do it 8 more times. lol
The final boss is so easy but, lasers and floating shields (flies, meat) really do make all the difference in this game. The 4 _____ are pieces of cake too.
What I learned is past Mom forget more exploring and rush to other bosses. I only had bad experiences exploring the more difficult floors when I could already take out the bosses. Some of those deep normal rooms are much tougher than the boss.

I just ragequit for the first time ever in anything. My first 2 powerups were chocolate milk and bobby and i was tearing through shit once i kept getting dmg powerups and i found a 1up shroom in a secret room by accident after using it to bomb a room full of those exposed brain guys. Everything was dying in one charged shot. Made it to the depths 2, found an emperor card and used it to get to mom. Was nuking everything until i get stomped on by mom and then i disappeared off the screen while the action kept going. I was so freaking mad especially after getting stuck on caves 2 so many times. PORQUE! Everything was going so well.
Good patch, but i would like to see official Xbox Controller support with on Screen buttons. I don't like having to download 3rd party programs to get it to work.
Also another thank you to xelios for the giveaway in the Steamgifts thread.

Say yes Ed!

I still haven't finished it, but I love this game. It would be even better if we could customize it a bit, for example choosing our own powerups or creating our own levels.

God I suck at this. Can't even scratch the 3 different bosses I met. Any tips? It feels the game is really hard and not forgiving
My advice on the bosses would be patience. Get in whatever damage you can do safely, but then be sure you're on the move before they do their damage. Get used to their patterns and you should have a pretty easy time predicting when and where to move. A longer battle due to caution is better than dying.UnluckyKate said:
Some tips from a fellow noob:
Don't use a key to open up the store when you have too few coins.
It's better to try out an item that you don't know so you can find out what it does even if you end up waste it.
Don't pick up a full heart if you only need a half. they don't disappear, so if you get hit later you can go back and get the full heart - or if you beat the floor with only a half you can go back and top off.
Sometimes it can be better to use bombs on stationary enemies if you know they would otherwise give you a hard time and end up costing you a lot of health.
and in general be very meticulous and keep your distance.
In other news; is there a good resource for item info or something on the web? like a wiki? I would have hoped the game kept track of what the effects of the things you picked up where (in the collection screen), but sadly it expects me to remember them all. ;-/

Pretty much. But that's the price to pay for making a commercial game in Flash, of all things.3chopl0x said:whatadick

Totally worth $5.
Same thing happened to me. I think the patch toggled it on for some reason.

This game is fucking hard. Edmund really likes to make his game frustratingly hard.

The pad solution kind of sucks; I'm just using the keyboard for now. I'm sure there's a good reason for not having native pad support, but I hope it gets patched in soon. It was only $5 though, so I can live without it for now.

It's awesome because in Super Meat Boy he basically called PC gamers stupid for NOT using a controller.
Good thing I can laugh at these sort of things. :3
