Description:

This mod features over a dozen brand new mechanics, which each make minor changes that bolster the base game and provide an increased challenge. These are wide in variety, and do not fit any particular themes. This is just *one* modular release part of the Absolution Overhaul!


Mod Features

All of the changes and additions detailed below have been documented on the official Absolution Wiki, which can be found here [tboiabsolution.wiki.gg].

Bosses and Enemies
  • Bosses that spawn in non-special rooms have 25% less health.
  • Monsters that are spawned by other enemies are given the same status effects as their ‘parent.’
  • The Stompy transformation (or similar rock-breaking effect) can be used to destroy Stoneys.
  • Grimaces and Spike Blocks are automatically destroyed after clearing a room they are in.
  • Enemies that are naturally on fire (such as Grilled Clotties) now slowly lose health.
  • Delirium now drops an Eden’s Blessing if the Void floor was entered through the portal spawned after defeating Hush.

Floors and Rooms
  • The base chance to spawn a Planetarium has been increased to 5%.
  • The first door leading to the alt. path is unlocked automatically.
  • Defeating a boss without taking damage will reward an additional item pedestal that contains a random Health upgrade, so long as the player is not playing as The Lost or Keeper.
  • Defeating an Angel miniboss after collecting both Key Pieces has a chance to spawn a random Angel Room item as a reward.
  • Bombing the statue in the Devil Room will now spawn a Fallen Angel miniboss, which have unique rewards (see below).

Items and Trinkets
  • Empty item pedestals no longer have collision.
  • If the player has collected at least one copy of Breakfast and does not have Binge Eater, subsequent Breakfasts will be automatically rerolled into a random item.
  • Defeating an Angel miniboss while holding Filligree Feather now guarantees the rewarded item will be of Quality 2 or higher.
  • Defeating a Fallen Angel miniboss will reward one of two Red Key pieces, which can be used to spawn the Red Key in a secret room.


This mod is just one small part of the Absolution Overhaul project, and more releases are right around the corner. If you are interested in other mods that belong to this series, you can find them here on Steam, marked with the [AO] tag.
