Find Me a Secret Room

IDK if this is supposed to be like this but curse of the tower was proked by curse heart and found my glitch room for me but now it says there are 2 of them.

So close

Very, very nice little puzzle game! I appreciate the item system, and the new rules. I've only won once so far. Sometimes it's impossible to correctly figure out where a secret room is, but there's usually enough advantages from hearts and items to make up for that frustration.

The one room I think badly needs a change is the Black Market. The fact that it works on a percentage chance rather than being fully consistent has ruined multiple runs. It's already not easy to triangulate which room would be the mid-point of several different rooms, so I don't think adding random chance to that is necessary.

Personally, I would probably give Angel Secret Rooms and Devil Secret Rooms one more rule, particularly something related to whether they prefer spawning next to a special room or a non-special room. It's not really necessary for smaller maps, but it would really help eliminate some annoying guesswork on maps with three separate floors.

I've only encountered them a couple times, but Red Secret Rooms are kind of awful. It's very easy for there to be *loads* of possible locations with only one correct, and they've eaten through my hearts. I'm not sure what could be done about this without changing their rules.

One more thing- I'm not sure if this is a known issue, but Hermit Rooms seem to work weirdly sometimes. I've had multiple games where they didn't seem to follow the room distance rule.

I had a strange bug where the second zone appeared to spawn incorrectly, making the starting room secret rooms spawn wrong, as did the angel secret room.

Holy mantle "bocks" incoming damage xD

bro how is the hermit room not at the longest path of ten (its already red since i used it)(the red square at the very edge of the long room on the bottom)

Can hermit rooms be connected to other secret rooms?

Really cool concept, well done!

Found a bug where the curse of the tower clears the floor allowing me to move on (to a shop in this case for hearts) also I can't use anything in this situation 

Did my second hermit room not spawn???

are you planning to add a list of discovered items?

Found another generation bug. This time something is wrong with hermit rooms. https://imgur.com/a/UePDBF6

It's possible to get soft locked on the tesla fan challenge if you run out of charges on all of your items as there's no way to damage yourself to gain charges without the pickaxe.

Got an error in the Panic Buying challenge where I had Backpack, Car Battery, Mr. Mega, and Tech X when I tried to select a third active item, Dad's Key.  (This was on the second item room.) The music was still playing, but it seemed to get stuck on the screen and softlock the game.

Somehow outsider rooms have changed starter's room position by breaking the rules. https://imgur.com/a/CJCViGS

I'm so impressed how well this game keeps the spirit of Issac while being a completely different genre. So much replayability! 

A few suggestions / questions:

1. For the challenges, it would be nice to know what the equipped items do. A hover tool-tip on the right hand side or an 'item compendium' would be nice. 

2. I think the 'high/low/very low" chance that some rooms have should be removed and replaced with the binary 'most correct' or 'can't spawn'. A spot that better fits the criteria should always beat one that doesn't. (Ex. starter room 3 tiles away should always beat one 4 tiles away). It's challenging enough to have multiple spots that tie for 'most correct', try them all, and find out the actual spot is worse according to the criteria. 

3. The 'special room tiebreaker' for normal secret rooms would be nice to add to other secret room types as well.  Example: A devil room with 2 normal  room connections + one special room connection always beats a devil room with 3 normal connections. 

4. In the 'panic buying' challenge, my items do not get reset when entering a new shop, making the challenge extremely easy. 

Questions:

1. Do larger multi-tile rooms (like an L shape room) count as a single 'step' when calculating the longest path for hermit?

2. Do glitch rooms factor in to the 'largest min. distance' for outsider rooms?

3. Do previously found secret rooms count when adding up the adjacent rooms for 'Red Secret Room'?

---

Overall, I think the appeal of this game is as a logic-game first and foremost, with the only chance being choosing between multiple spots that tie in the criteria, not having the actual spawns be in a 'low/very low' probability spot. 

so like, it just kind of... brown screens randomly? either if i click tab, or just..as i said randomly

Please correct the triangulation of the Black Market. The treasure rooms and markets were making a perfect equilateral triangle and I wasted 7 hearts in the dead center of the space... to be revealed it was right beside the top end treasure room... which is the complete opposite of  the rules and description.

Plz explain this starter room

edit: i did realize the update of starter rooms so nvm

Mom, Mom, New update just dropped!!! I always thought not being able to hide the screen and see what rooms you missed sucked and felt like I was cheated, but this new update is awesome!! Keep up the good work!!

I absolutely love this game, I play at least once a day. That being said, every once in awhile Ill have a level generate to where I cant see the edges of some rooms, and they always have the last secret room I need. I'm  not sure if it is just a me thing, but other than that, I am in love lmfao!!!

excuses me?
