loads of these items are actually good items, the only hard thing about this challenge is playing as blue baby.

The game crashes as soon as I attempt this challenge :/

@AGamerSoYeah Glad you like it :D Cathedral is scripted to give either Body or Soul. I dunno if I should change it. I wanted to mix things up in the last few levels.

On floor 1 I took soy milk and the game gave me Tech. On floor 2 I took tiny planet because it would only benefit me. Somewhere I got magnetic tears and Isaac's heart. The cathedral glitched for me and the challenge gave me the soul. The chest gave me tech X.
Soy milk + magnetic tears + tech X = a really interesting and fun game.
I also ended up with 3 bars of damage despite having soy milk.
I am in love with this challenge. Thank you O_o for making this.

@Eternal Dorkness Yep. I've gotten rid of items that could break the challenge.

@Wolfemaster1, done. As mentioned, Dr. Fetus can become a bit of a nightmare if you also pick up certain other items alongside it.

It's funny really, Isaac has so many shit items that you can create a run that consists entirely of them.

Why is Dr. Fetus one of the possible items? Also, could you give a list of all possible items in the description as a spoiler?

Bottom tier items synergize so well. I get great runs with this challenge. LOL

@jeremy_marr Yep. It can have interactions with a lot of other first-room items (Soy Milk, Tiny Planet, etc...)

@salty croco, thanks!

I really liked this one. It's always awesome to see people come with ideas to use some of the "bad" items. Well done ! :steamhappy:

docter fetus is actully good so i dont know why you can get it. maybe because you can get hurt by it but still its good.

@PotRoastPiggy, thanks! It's fixed now.

You should remove black runes, i used one at the start of a floor and it stopped me from progressing.

I'll look into the Basement thing.

For Cathedral and Womb - those are both intentional, I wanted to mix things up a bit after the Depths; the W1, W2, and Cathedral starting rooms are all scripted. W1 and Cathedral items are mainly there for an extra health boost. The Poop thing is partly there because it seemed amusing to have a choice between Poop and Poop, but it's also a way to get you to part with your current active item.

The Blue Baby boss...well, yeah, that's probably another mod. I can't even imagine why that would happen otherwise.

Bug report- after the basement i could leave the starting room without taking one of the items. My best guess is the Compass was doing it somehow? I had fruit cake, multidim baby, dr fetus, mr mega
Also, on Womb 2 both pedestals had the same item (the Poop). I think that goes against the whole "choice" thing but also don't know if there's a way to really prevent that.
On Cathedral, i got the Body and the Soul. I dunno if that's intentional.
Blue Baby, the boss, dropped Guppy's Collar and I was teleported to the void, although i'm fairly sure this is because of another challenge mod I have, because teleporting to the void at the end of a challenge is a recurring thing for me.

curious fact, I enjoy the challenge ¨brains¨ so I love this challenge. :D

I think something is wrong in this challenge, although there are no stores, but if there are golden rooms, I do not finish understanding the meaning.
