The Binding of Isaac: Repentance for Android — version 1.6
WickedA big one: mods, a built-in guide, new control modes, save transfer from PC and a pile of fixes.
Highlights
- MODS menu on the title screen, like on PC: every built-in mod with its own switch and settings page.
- Your own mods. Resource mods (graphics, animations, sounds, music, fonts, texts) install straight from a zip inside the game. Export the game's files to edit them; turn mods on and off, reorder them and export them back. The modding guide has the details.
- In-game controls guide: the GUIDE tab in Options. 11 slides in 7 languages.
- Item spawner: switch it on in Tweaks, open it from the tab on the pause screen. Search, item pictures, one tap to spawn. Achievements are off while it is enabled.
- Save import and export. Saves from PC (Repentance, Repentance+, Afterbirth+) move to the phone and back.
Built-in mods
- Enhanced Boss Bars: a health bar for every boss, 35 styles, four screen positions, boss icons, status effects, 21 settings.
- Boss Rush Wave Counter: the current wave in Boss Rush.
- Planetarium Chance: the planetarium chance under your stats.
- Completion Mark Reminder: missing marks show faintly on the character's note.
- Specialist Dance: the dance and the music when a quality 4 item is in the room.
- Stats+: damage multipliers and the Tear Cap.
- External Item Descriptions is now a mod of its own with a 20-setting page.
Item descriptions
- All 20 description languages, chosen separately from the game's language.
- Bag of Crafting screen: what is in the bag, in the room and on the floor, and what it all crafts into. Tap to page through recipes, hold to freeze the list.
- Descriptions for TMTRAINER's glitched items.
- Hints show the buttons of your own controller.
- The panel can be moved; icons and lines are laid out more neatly; lots of small text fixes.
- The "No HUD" seed hides descriptions too.
Controls
- New touch mode BUTTONS: D-pads instead of sticks.
- New stick size: very big.
- Double tap for Mars, Hemoptysis and the like works on every stick type and on the D-pads.
- A freeze button for the second body: Strawman, Soul of the Forgotten, Found Soul, Tainted Lazarus and more.
- Hold your trinket to drop it fixed, moving sticks included.
- Holding pause to restart now uses the game's own fade: let go in time and the restart is cancelled.
- Restarting no longer breaks your win streak.
Controller and keyboard
- Full physical keyboard support with the PC layout.
- Controllers with digital triggers (Anbernic, Switch-style pads) and Xbox pads are recognised properly; two devices no longer get in each other's way.
- Rumble is back: the controller vibrates, or the phone if the controller has no motor.
- Every port page and menu tab works with a controller and a keyboard.
Interface
- New menu tabs: TWEAKS, ITEM SPAWN, GUIDE.
- RERUN can be tapped; "Yes" in Victory lap works again.
- Options scroll cleanly to the very bottom.
- The port's system windows speak Russian on a Russian phone.
Graphics
- Render scale can be changed from the menu to gain performance.
- POTATO mode for weak phones: original resolution, heavy effects off.
- Item effects no longer break after the game is minimised.
Saves
- The port's saves are PC-compatible.
- Damaged or foreign saves no longer wipe your progress.
- An interrupted write no longer corrupts the save file.
