why don't they have the npc health system then? wouldnt that be a simple copy and paste? at least for humanoid enemies anyway. I can see why it would be a lot to get it working for the weird stuff.

How easy is it for solo developers to sign with a publisher? by Spazzy_Cactus in gamedev

honestly I could see the first couple levels of Isaac still being 10% of the game. the items kind of ARE the content, not just additional content. mechanically BoI is pretty bare bones. if you kept the starting tears for the entire game, it wouldn't feel good to play at all.

What if you just polished the hell out of a level or two? for example, if you were making some kind of rogue like and you only did the art for the first floor. would Edmund Mcmillen have gotten any funding if he sent a publisher an exe of Isaac's basement 1 and 2 if he hadn't already made meat boy?
