The Agony of Isaac (Development on halt)

Information

Welcome to The Agony of Isaac, a WIP mod for The Binding of Isaac Afterbirth† !

The mod is currently playable, just download the repository, put it wherever your Afterbirth† mod folder is and enjoy!

There's a lot of work to do, hopefully you can contribute and get your name in the credits! Check out our project boards!

(https://github.com/AgonyTeam/Agony/projects/1) Anything here that has the "APPROVED" tag has to be done, assign yourself and program away!
(https://github.com/AgonyTeam/Agony/projects/2) Anything here with the "BUG" or "NEEDS CODE" tag needs some work, help us out!

(https://github.com/AgonyTeam/Agony/projects/2) Look for the "NEEDS SPRITE" or "NEEDS ANIMATION" tags! If you have any concept art post it on our idea board! (https://github.com/AgonyTeam/Agony/projects/1)

We don't need any sound design as of now. Someone is already working on a whole new track for Agony, but if you're good at music/sound design, show us what you can do and we'll most likely find a use for it!

We're always looking for new ideas, feel free to contribute here ! (https://github.com/AgonyTeam/Agony/projects/1) Don't be shy, even if your idea is stupid, maybe it'll inspire someone else!

Identity
- More than anything, identity is very important when it comes to enemy/item design, even if something is not unique, is there a way to make it feel special ? (Think how Death touch feels super cool eventhough it's only piercing shot + dmg up)
- A strong identity doesn't mean the item has to be strong or bad, the butterbean has a great identity eventhough it sucks ass.
- Theme, visual effects and sfx are really important here
Bad items aren't bad
- It's important to have bad items, as long as they can somehow be useful in a specific situation
Random is fun but controlled randomness is more fun
- Think how the Discover mechanic in Hearthstone is way more rewarding than getting a random card
Go big or go home
- When designing/modifying something don't change 5-10%, big cuts are way more effective when it comes to balancing, trust me!

Agony adds a lot of content. We can't test everything, feel free to report any bug you find! Make sure you leave enough info for us to reprodue the issue!

Are you good at promoting stuff ? Then we need you, be it a video trailer, a montage, or even a Youtube let's play of the mod, it helps and we love you forever for it!
