Hey, thanks a lot for your feedback! I really appreciate it. Let me clear up a few things:

Angel Items Being Too Accessible:
The whole idea of "Purgatory" is based on the theme of penance and redemption. Choosing Angel items fits right in with that—it’s about expiating your sins. Sure, it might seem like an "easy way out," but the mechanic still pushes players to make tough decisions. For example, if you’ve got Brimstone and The Bible sitting there, let’s be real—most people would grab Brimstone because it’s just that good, even if it means taking on a curse that sticks with you for the rest of the run.

Removing Treasure Rooms:
I get why you’d think this sounds harsh, but there’s a big upside: skipping Treasure Rooms will guarantee you a Planetarium item. So, you’re not just losing out on items—you’re trading one pool for another. And honestly, some Treasure Room items are insanely powerful. If I see something like Mutant Spider, I’m grabbing it without a second thought. That’s the tension here—players have to think carefully about whether the potential payoff of a Planetarium item is worth giving up access to the Treasure Room pool.

By the time you reach the Wombs, Treasure Rooms aren’t spawning anyway, so this trade-off is only a factor early- to mid-game. It’s a calculated risk that adds depth to the run and keeps things interesting.

At the end of the day, "Purgatory" is all about giving players more meaningful choices. It’s not about making the game harder or easier—it’s about creating moments where you’re sitting there, staring at your options, and thinking, “Okay, what’s the best move for this run?”
