Bros what broking combinations did you find yet?
For the ranger the combination of attacks can't miss and the powerful attacks who miss like 50-70% is really strong, I got that twice so far and the only real op thing I manage to collect.
The most powerful was the ranger had marked (upgraded to hit all similar enemies) and I had a mage that would reduce spell costs so I could spam the attack like 10 times in the end, and basically one shotted the spider in the caves.

Is there any kind of tech I need to 100% be aware of?
Like how in BoI you learn what rooms have a secret room adjacent. Anything like that I need to keep in mind?

I think it's just for act one but boneyard and caves have different unlocks yeah.
Colourless cats aren't terrible they're just unfocused but some colourless passives can be pretty good like just giving them plat damage increases on their basic attacks.

Im about to complete my 6th dead god on Isaac (I have finished 3 on PC, and 2 on switch, I only have 2 characters left on my last file on switch). I've basically dedicated all my gaming freetime to isaac in the last 2.5 years. The addiction has genuinely crippled me. Something is wrong with me where I need to play this game an absurd amount. I want to get Mewgenics because it looks awesome, but I saw there was 3 file selects on the main screen. For the betterment of myself, I cannot buy this shit. My life has only got worse since I got addicted. 4-5 years ago I used to have sex occasionally.

Should I get Mewgenics?

>>732912635
Fighter that gets all stats up with allied cat death and necromancer raising an army of cats. Ended up with ~+30 all stats during spider, by that point the fighter was critting every shot. The wide attack made clearing zombie cats quick too.

>>732913491
Yeah, although it's been mentioned as a problem causer mini me can be absolutely legit.

Yeah it's like Issac. Every end-route boss has a class unlock tied for it (Collarless cats have to be in your party from the start).
From the empty spaces I'd assume every class has at least eight unlocks or so.

I'm assuming just like Issac too, the "end" of the route can be extended after enough wins (I'm guessing taking the Flesh cube to the end of the caves is part of this).

When you unlock Act 2 it's time to kinda start thinking about breeding.
General low-maint method is:
>Keep all your retirees in a room with stimulation and comfort as high as you can crank it
>Keep all your kittens and fresh cats in another room with comfort as low as possible so they fight often and gain extra stats before they're sent out on their runs (you can mulch the losers who get injured/die)
As you unlock more rooms you can more finely tune your breeding programs (keep all your strong cats in one room, keep all your smart cats in another, etc.)

Every once in a while add a stray to the mix to keep the gene pool diverse and reduce the risk of birth defects.

I agree with you anon, Ed's art style looks like shit. Isaac flash looked like shit. The pixelart Isaac (rebirth and the DLCs) was clearly the development team's interpretations of Ed's grotesque drawings, and they ended up lowkey cute.

From what I've gathered so far, this is how breeding works:

There's only 3 home stats that effect breeding: comfort, stimulation, and mutation. You're gonna want to segregate your cats into at least 2 groups: group 1 is your general pool/farming cats: these are cats you don't care about like strays or cats with defects or bad stats. They stay in a room with comfort as low as possible with negative comfort furniture, cat shit everywhere (lowers comfort), and overcrowded India train tier conditions because you want these cats to injure, grow to age 5, or kill themselves as fast as possible so you can farm unlocks. Those who survive can go into a group 2: these are cats you run through the sewers easy path only so they become veterans for more unlocks. Finally you have group 3, the breeding pen: with at least 5-10 comfort the cats will stop fighting and only breed. I kept weeding out cats with low stats/bad mutations/bad passives, and eventually I'm at the point where I only keep kittens with 0 'red' stats, only white and preferably green stats, and good mutations. I assume group 4 will be specialized breeding rooms in order to pass down specific traits and passives, but I'm not there yet because it takes forever to unlock house expansions. The downside is that like just like darkest dungeon, this game requires a shit load of grind in order to progress in meaningful ways, which is fucked.

I almost just tossed this piece of shit because he has red stats, only to discover that he's a primordial dwarf. Probably gonna become one of my strongest archers ever.

>think to myself that edmund's humor is very childish and stuck in the 2010s

Just stick to Act 1. Do the sidequests from the scientist. When you complete the sidequests, you get a good version of the quest item that you can keep.

>Can use leeches and eat corpses to recover HP

>Also has an extra gimmick build where you do a bunch of boosted moves while dead (not worth running this unless you roll into the colourless skill "Play Dead")

Cleric and Tank are both better at their roles as healer and vanguard in aggressive teams because they don't require the same setup time or resource management Necro does however.
If you're winning every encounter in like <3-4 rounds it can be harder for it to shine.

I think the only time thief really came in handy was when I rolled a passive that automatically collected all of the drops on the ground at the end of a battle, alongside the cut purse shot that spawns coins when you hit units with that skill. Came home with damn near a hundred coins and brought out every shop. But to really get mileage out of it, it feels like you need to have a thief eugenics program unlike the simpler classes

Thief is a squishy mid-range damage dealer that leverages its high mobillity to hit and run. Late run it's basically *teleports behind u* into *nothing personnel kid* unless you really fuck up the build.

It's just trickier to use because its higher damage options are more conditional than something like say, Fighter. Who just goes "unga bunga me big punch".

>>732916450
You need house stats to get good inheritance.
Comfort (frist on list) is what affects the kitten production rate, and Stimulation (second on list) is what effects the kitten quality.

As far as I can tell the meta for a while will be jamming all of your furniture into one room and keeping the good cats in there while other rooms host cats to be run or cats to be donated. Eventually you might get the furniture to get a dedicated mutation room or something.

I like tactics games but I hate cats and the artstyle is fucking revolting.

>>732916450
You need the first Tink upgrade to de-class the cats. Basically, this shows you on retired cats the stats they would pass down, which is the same as their colorless stats. Without this you're flying blind.

Next, you basically just need to max stimulation. Highest stimulation possible means kittens are more likely to obtain the highest stats from their parents. Combine this with the random variations and you slowly climb in base stats.

Next, you need appeal. Appeal brings in cats with higher base stats (and skills and such, no idea how these are passed down if at all, probably not at all honestly). This is necessary to not end up with a bunch of deep inbreds with the strategy above. You have to keep inserting fresh cats into your bloodline or they'll fuck up hard, and appeal is the way to do it.

Least important is comfort. Comfort makes the cats more likely to breed and less likely to fight. Which is mostly for convenience. It only -actually- helps if you've got a few cats you want to breed, but they hate each other (which is shown via the last Tink upgrade). But you can play around it and this just speeds up the process.

Stimulation is necessary or you won't even get stronger kittens.
Appeal is to prevent inbred mutations, though it'll slow down the snowballing from stimulation.
Comfort is just convenient.

Right now my best is a cat with five 7 stats, but it's too inbred for use.

Why do browns and zoomers get so mad at cats?

My best cats.
Yes they're all inbred, I need to break that with new cats, but that'll lower the average stats.
Still yet to see a single 8.

I don't think I've seen a natty 2 either so it seems 5 +/- 2 is the range.

this "negative" is amazing if you can get it on a fighter type cat
i was expecting them to go beserk but no it's just a straight up increase to strength and decrease to int

i can't believe edmund mcmillen has me spending this much of my personal time playing a fucking tactics game but here we are

>>732916450
Do you want spoilers?

Without spoilers it's good to keep cats with good stats and skills around especially positive mutations.

>>732918973
I think what I'll try to do is ignore my own advice, and go deeply inbred. Keep going until I get all 7s (I may need to insert parents with 7 str, range and luck).
Once I've got something horrifically inbred, then I'll breed it with literally any cat in a 15+ stimulation room and hope the cats kittens keep the 7s as I un-inbred it.
It'll have to be high comfort too so my all 7er doesn't get fucking killed.

Absolutely.

If a cleric has madness does it heal or harm an ally?

>>732919215
Harm.
It'd be too nice of edmund to make it random targets.
No, it specifically can't tell friend from foe, so they're all foes.
It can even heal enemies.

>>732917993
I was playing Menace just before this dropped, might be more up your alley if you care about the art style too much.

When do you decide to keep pushing forward or go back home? I'm low on coins, food, and haven't done alot of the upgrades yet. Should I focus on doing some hard/normal runs and stopping after the Sewers/Junkyard just to stock up on stuff? Last time I pushed Boneworks I lost everything because my cats aren't very good yet.

having to play hide and seek in the caves is so fucking stupid

how do you feed the burning orb to the man in the moon? do you just have to throw it?

>>732917993
I feel that people that hate cats would unironically like this game considering all the horrid shit you can do to them.

>>732919358
I think the point of TWO guys wanting retired cats (one from early areas, one from any) is so you can retire early and make significant progress, so don't feel bad about doing that at all.
I didn't and now I've got all sorts of time pressures, and barely any fucking upgrades.

Absolutely, I had an event which gave the entire party a -2 ranged mutation, which they'd pass on to every kitten when they mated (this was before I unlocked the guy who takes mutations.)

So can birth defects have pros/cons or are they usually always bad?

>>732919051
yeah and it was my mage that got it
maybe I can breed it into other cats

He's the first boss in the game that punishes you for building damage with no thought for utility. Which is why most people seem to be struggling with him. Alley, Junkyard, Sewer and Caves can all generally be brute-forced through with high damage.

haven't made it to the boneyard or caves yet, what should I be focusing on?

haven't really bred any winners

The soundtrack is top tier, right?

I genuinely don't understand how to play the game or what the strategy is. I can't be a tboi god and just dodge and remember synergies and items. everything feels like a catch 22 and I have 0 experience with games like this

>>732919873

How big is the fucking game?

can someone post the VA list

>>732919998
I'm gonna suggest something really boring, but it's honestly the best strategy as far as I can tell. Early in the game you should:
>max the everliving fuck out of the people at home
>injury furniture boy is lowest priority, it just expands his shop but I think he can still sell every item at all times
>top right is great for excess cats
>top left is something you want to grind for
>middle left you NEED to grind for
>bottom right is mandatory for breeding

So basically:
>Do a shitload of runs throwing your cats at the two guys on the left
>throw every fucking kitten at bottom right, who cares if it has good stats or not
>repeat
>repeat
>repeat
>now progress

I didn't and I'm deeply regretting it.

How much inbreeding is too much inbreeding?
inb4 until they start to cut foreskins and calling themselves chosen people

Man I might have to start doing Alley-only runs to get donation fodder.

How do you even get a grasp on the breeding? If I breed two cats with high intelligence will the baby be born with higher than normal intelligence? Is it that simple?

>>732919998
Getting to boneyaed or caves.

>>732920173
hmm I see, I'll take your advice and see how it pans out

>>732920084
If you can't figure out a turn based game and think ahead of what to do you might actually have low IQ.
These games are extremely simple to play, you plan ahead and execute your plan. Strategy is always to synergize skills across your characters. It's genuinely not hard.

ahahhaha seems guillotina will try to throw your cat into another cat's falcon punch. hahaha another fuck you huh

>>732920326
Only if you have high stimulation.
But yes, it's that simple.
I'll simplify it as much as possible for you.

>high appeal = cats wander in with a 7 in a stat
>high stimulation = kittens select the highest stats amongst their parents
>high comfort = more breeding, less fighting, even amongst cats who hate each other

You want high appeal first to get those 7s coming in. Then high stimulation to pass them down, and pass many down. Comfort's just for convenience.

explain the dates, does it mean anything? is it just for speedrun stuff?

also how does breeding work? should i keep cats that can breed with me and not retire them if they're good?
