Gimmick

Of course, every character needs their special little thing to make them stand out, and in Isaac’s case i chose to go for the Devil and Angel Deals.

Now, in TBOI, from the second floor all the way to the eighth floor, Devil Deals and Angel Deals spawn naturally (yeah you can get them on floor 1 or 9 onwards if you use a joker card or teleport 2.0, but those don’t count).

In normal conditions, the second floor is a guaranteed Devil Deal until you take red heart damage from enemies, the curse room’s door and the sacrifice room (blood donation machines don’t decrease your chances), and if you pick a devil deal item (each costing hearts), you’re never getting an angel deal again unless you get duality, an item which allows Isaac to take both Angel Deals and Devil Deals. Now if you didn’t take the Devil Deal, there will be a 50% chance on the next floor onwards that the room spawned will be an angel room (you can either increase or decrease this percentage by doing certain things), so I wanted to make Isaac in Smash interact with this mechanic.

I decided to go for this method: whenever Isaac dies or gets a kill, there will be a 12.5% chance of an Angel Room spawn and a 12.5% chance for a Devil Room to spawn (the remaining 75% will do nothing). Isaac will then be given a choice to get the item or not.

In Devil Rooms, Isaac gets Brimstone, a powerful blood barrage that deals tons of damage (3.5 on tick, 3 ticks per second and low knockback), but it requires 55 frames (nearly a second to charge) and once he takes the deal, he’ll come back with 85% health (that’s the best way I could translate an hp loss to smash).

However, in Angel Rooms, Isaac will be given Sacred Heart if he accepts it. Sacred Heart is a great damage up with homing tears, but also come with a tears and shot speed downgrade without any additional cost (the shot speed down can actually help the homing shots to be a bit more effective). If he gets Sacred Heart through a kill, he will also recover 45% health (of course in TBOI it gives a full heal but that’s just too much. The heal and damage values are the same as these when it’s in Stamina Mode).

Both can be rerolled back into regular tears via his Neutral Special, but I don’t think anyone would be stupid enough to reroll any of these, being the two best tear effects in the game.

Alternate Costumes

And as for costumes, i couldn’t have done anything other than making them the other characters from Isaac, those being:

Magdalene (or simply Maggy), Judas, Cain, Samson, Eve, ??? (better known as Blue Baby) and Eden, which can have many different hair styles (he gets a random one at the start of each match)

Down Taunt: Enters a Trapdoor, then comes out.

Side Taunt: Thumbs Up

Victory Animations:

1. This

2. Isaac finishes writing his will, and then Mom’s Foot starts chasing him, so he runs away.

3. Isaac uses The D6 while standing in front of an item (a smash item), and it’s rerolled into a random one.

4. He enters the glowing chest and closes it. That’s it.

Series icon:

Since the logo of the series is just the text, i opted for Isaac’s face

Let me know if I left anything major slide, I think that I’m done. I’m so glad I’m finishing this right now I’ve been procrastinating a lot simply due to laziness.

See you around have an EPIC day.
