It's Binding of Isaac without items! ...Almost. The Wafer is used for later chapters and for certain bosses/floors that were too hard, I allow a trinket. Some of the early floors also pick up trinkets before I decided to ban them too. Cards are mostly allowed. Pickups like bombs and soul hearts are allowed (and later floors start with them). Goal is to clear every single room of the floor, and then fight the boss.
This series is just as much to show off the game's content as much as my own skill, so don't take it too seriously when I cheat and start with an advantage or segment up a run. Usually that just means it was too hard for me to do normally.
Mods featured:
None! Revelations features in its own chapters though.

Silksong is here! Training for Steel Soul, I decided to record relatively clean battles vs every boss. Rules for each are simple; no tools, crests, or skills besides the default Hunter and Silkspear, no healing, and my attacks deal half damage (via mod)
I thought this would be way worse than it was. I was fearing Id have to lift a rule to make this reasonable, turns out primarily melee works just fine and silkspear is actually very capable here.")

Barely-a-boss. It has very low health and only 1 attack. If this gives you trouble this deep into the game, I dont know what to tell you.")

Skipped the waves of enemies that come before (and definitely healed up during that portion) because the boss is hard enough and the runback is terrible, even with the hidden bench. Good fight though, shame about the more frustrating elements surrounding it. Nail arts can be done as he emerges, dont be too aggressive otherwise.")
