[BETA] Binding of Isaac: Birth

Instructions

▶ About This is a 'Scratch-ed' version of the classic dungeon-crawler game: Binding Of Isaac Rebirth. Of course it isn't the same as The Binding Of Isaac, but the music, items, enemies, and some of the gameplay are similar. ▶ How to play W A S D to move and arrow keys to shoot. -space- key to use an item (top right corner), E to activate a buddy's special ability. ▶ Passive/items Your item is shown at the top right of the screen, if you don't have any, you won't be seeing anything. Some items are passive, while others can be used by pressing the -space- key when the cooldown is ready (when the loading bar at the bottom is fully green). ▶ Buddies A buddy or familiar is usually a friendly entity flying close to you. Most of them will just assist you with shooting enemies simultaneously as you, although there are some that have special abilities that can be activated by pressing the E key. ▶ Weapons All weapons have different properties and can have very different play styles. ▶ Charms Charms are collectible items that show on your character. They give special effects that last as long as the charm is on. They can only be found in Angel rooms. ▶ Rooms Every 10 or 20 rooms, the background will change with the music. Every 20 rooms there will be 1 of 2 randomly chosen bosses for that room. The final boss is at room 100, I made the game intentionally hard to mimic the difficulty of the Binding of Isaac: Rebirth. Randomly you might get an arcade or treasure room (for more info, check treasure/arcade rooms) ▶ Treasure rooms Treasure rooms will appear randomly, they require 1 key to enter. Every treasure room will contain either 1 or 4 keys, so you'll always get back the amount you spent to enter the room. Additionally a collectible will spawn that can't normally spawn in classic rooms. ▶ Arcade rooms Arcade rooms will randomly appear like the treasure rooms. They open automatically when the room is cleared. They all contain arcade machines. There are 2 special machines: a lucky spin (randomizes your weapon, item/passive and buddy in exchange for a coin), and a donation machine (you can donate a coin to increase the global donated amount, this machine will get more of a purpose in a future update). There are 6 trade machines which you can give the item at the left of the sign, to get the one at the right of the sign. ▶ Angel rooms Angel rooms will randomly appear like the treasure rooms. They open automatically when the room is cleared. They might contain a charm item. ▶ Cursed items Any and all items have a 1/5 chance of being cursed, this will be shown by a cursed circle around Isaac when it is on the ground. This curse will modify the item's effect making it useless, worse, reverse it's effects, or add another negative effect. Usually you don't want to pick up cursed items, although some may be useful in some specific scenarios. ▶ Transformations When you have a buddy, item and weapon from the same 'transformation set' Isaac will change appearance and usually these combinations are extremely powerful. ▶ Arcade The Arcade is a secondary game mode where it is mostly similar to Survival, but instead of using arrow keys to shoot, you use the mouse. Thanks to this change in mechanics, very different and unique items spawn in the Arcade, that are all different than the ones in Survival. Note that Arcade items can NOT be cursed, and that once they appear, you have a limited time to pick them up before they despawn. ▶ Saving and loading progress You can save your progress before you leave with the 'save progress' button on the bottom right corner, make sure you write the code somewhere as it contains every information about your profile. The next time you open the game, just press the load profile button and all your profile information and achievements will be loaded. ▶ Achievements You can collect achievements in every game mode, go to the achievements page and hover over one to see the requirements to unlock it. ▶ Death Tier Every time you finish a run in either Survival or Arcade mode, your score is saved. Your high-score can be seen by hovering over the profile icon on the sidebar. You'll see, when you enter the Death Tier page that there are numbers under the items, if your high score is over that number, then you have unlocked that and it has a chance to spawn in either treasure rooms (Survival) or drop crates (Arcade).
