Awakening

TBoI: Awakening offers small tweaks to every item in the game, many bosses and characters, and much more! It also introduces twenty-four brand new items, three new characters, and one dozen new challenges.

****************************************************************************************************

A description of the mod:

The goal of Awakening is to refresh and slightly reconstruct Isaac for added challenge intended toward veteran players.

I highly reccomend you use this mod in conjunction with "Hardmode Boss Patterns" for additional changes and challenge; also, Project ReRebirth (the other mod I have published) is included within, so you do *not* need both.

While this version is technically the full release, this mod is still a work in progress, and I have many more changes planned for the future, and I am open to any and all feedback – feel free to leave a rating and a comment!
