Think I just got the worst combo imaginable. Chocolate Milk + Tiny Planet is absolutely goddamn atrocious. It is so impractical it ain't even funny.
You just discovered the Boss Rush room. Buckle up.

I've just stopped taking Tiny Planet unless I'm playing Azazel/have Brimstone. It's honestly terrible otherwise and ruins every run I have with it.
Tiny Planet + Lump of Coal wrecks faces though.
With soy milk and guppy it was a ton of fun!!
Oh, that was with 1 strength tears. Something I had was locking my damage down, not sure what. Didn't matter, really.
I'm curious to see how it pairs with the Cursed Eye. If it works how I'd expect it to, you'd have a absolutely lethal charged shot.
If player 1 is using a controller. Press Enter on the keyboard.
Can you do it with two keyboards?

I like how in the PS4 version you can move the minimap around with the touchpad when viewing it...is there an equivalent for the PC version (ie When bringing up the map using TAB) ?
The minimap kinda annoys me in rebirth, I wish they wouldn't have made it overlaying the gameplay and have it in a UI like the original. Ive fiddled with the opacity settings etc...but I still often have to press tab to make it disappear/reappear (which only works on minimum opacity)

I actually love how the map works on PS4, would never have thought of that, works really well at only exposing it when needed.
So I tried my luck on one of the D6 rooms (a one) and it rerolled my entire build into this:
Easiest satan kill ever. Instead of shooting tears I controlled that big green energy field with the arrow keys and it *obliterated* everything it touched. Also had a constant army of like 50 spiders. Just absolutely absurd.
Wish I knew what the heck it gave me, lol.

Big late-game spoilers:
So I got to the
fight with a pretty decent build, game crashed about 5 seconds into the fight. Thankfully the new "Continue" feature allowed me to jump right back in from outside of the room. So I head back inside, and once again, game crashed 5 seconds into the fight. Seems like I'm stuck in an endless loop of crashing an disappointment now.
EDIT: Fifth time's a charm. No crash, got the win. Coolest and toughest fight of the game, hands down.

Nothing here either, just the ending which you'll surely need for the Real Platinum God achievement.
first time playing as azazel and got tammy's head... so OP lol... cruised and beat
for the fifth time and unlocked everything is terrible..
A room also appeared and I entered it and it was the boss rush room... managed to beat it even tho it was intense
the music is growing on me.. the further down you go the better the music gets I think.
the unicorn/chariot music is utter fucking trash though

Anyone else got the regular brimstone and quad shot on azazel? Omg. Take up almost a 1/3 of the screen with lazers. Takes forever to charge though. Now if I can just find Lil brimstone, dark bum and gimp mask again I'll be set lol

Goddamn, I just got Dark Boy and Mama's Boy in the same run, thanks to a couple of really good defensive items. I don't have either of those in vanilla BoI, even after 200 hours.
Just was able to start playing. First two runs were a dud, because I have a Logitech G110 keyboard, and the game doesn't like them. Once I got that fixed up, went in and got...
Brimstone Baby
Infested Baby
Sister Maggy
Boomerang Shot (first item... blah)
Devil Baby (Was annoyed, then found it incredibly useful)
Guppy's Head (I think? Damage + Big Shots)
Roid Rage
Speedball
Caffeine Pill (hell yes)
Magic scab
forgetting some other items, but what a hell of a first run, right?
In that one run, I beat Mom, unlocked Azazel and Cain, and like 5 other items. I'm pumped. Love this game.

There are some pretty powerful new defensive weapons in Rebirth.
Holy Mantle, Infamy, and the Trinity Shield in particular
Looks like
ludovico technique
I got Tammy's Head along with Dark Bum yesterday and literally rolled through the Womb and Sheol without lifting a finger. That combo is OP as hell!

In the challenge level I had Tiny Planet + Soy Milk + Lump of Coal + Ring Worm + a bunch of shot speed and damage upgrades. It was a massive tornado of tears that took out enemies in a room instantly. I took a video of it. I'll try to post it soon.

Welp got splukner boy too now. Still no Samson. Got a crystal ball and robo baby to go with my uberbrimstone at least.
Man this game goes from "Oh I'm fucked" to "Oh I'm OP" really quickly. Was eve, getting shitty devil deals (some shitty babies). Took red heart damage, missed a devil deal only had 2 red hearts left. Then I come across tech, 3 cat pieces, tons of tears up pills and dark bum. Was smooth sailing.
Not a fan myself but not a bad item. Spammable like blue candle, but does damage and freezes instead.

I had homing tears (spoon bender) and ludo (or whatever it is where you control a single tear).
It destroyed my run. I lost about 6 lives on Mom (had dead cat) and ended up having to cheese her since it would just keep on going after minions and not Mom, making it especially difficult to control.

lol god damnit. Turned down whore of babylon, get guppy' paw next floor. Oh well don't think I'll need it this run.
I had some lousy luck; completed the room then went to the heart but I had such shit items:
The poo that makes items drop and some leech. I didn't have my tears powered up or anything like that either.
Damn RNG.
Dammit. I beat the third challenge then I pressed the sync button on Vita and it reverted to the save file I had before I beat the third challenge. 
And I had never played the game before and I beat Mom under another challenge (the computer-something one?) and didn't know that entering the door would not give me credit for killing Mom.
Playing for the first time seriously on Vita. Owned it on PCbut never played it more than 15 minutes really. I wish they'd updated the whole item description thing. I want to scroll through the unlocked items list and see what exactly they do. One complaint left over from the original flash PC game.

That list is for completion checking, not an encyclopedia. Use platinumgod.co.uk/rebirth if you want a cheatsheet

Satan defeated. Still need to unlock maggie. And samson >.> Has anyone got him without getting the four no damage trophies first? Cuz I have 3 so far. Should have saved my seed too, crap. That was fun but so op. Killed mom's heart in 2 hits.

This games seems way easier to me then the original. And I say that because I was really bad at the original but am able to get really far in the remake.
Not complaining though, I'm having a blast. I like how a lot of the new items are extremely unique and play around with the core mechanics.

I also read back through the thread and it seems my comments mirror some other people's concerns, lol.

So many games in a row with lousy pickups tells me I need a break from this game.

I keep forgetting to save my seeds. Just had a couple of good ones. First level: Big Mushroom, Little Mushroom, Halo. Demon Bum and Brimstone in the next two Devil rooms. Just face rolled over the whole thing. Boss rush was just raining soul hearts. Picked up Lil' Brimstone there just to make it extra hilarious.

Yep. Use a different character, try some challenges, unlock more stuff. It'll start unfolding for you. Just keep going.
