** Meatboy Lvl. 5--That's what some players call the severed body "generated" by The Shears. The reason behind it is because it used to be possible to have it constantly following you by acquiring five Meat Cubes [[GoodBadBugs via glitch exploitation]].[[note]]It's still possible to acquire more than 4 Meat Cubes, but now the fifth one you get transforms into a new rotating Meat Cube instead of upgrading your 4th Lvl. Meatboy.[[/note]]



* PromotedFanboy: Spider, the mind behind the [=SpiderMod=] program (a modified version of ''Isaac'' that runs in a separate .exe, is more optimized, and adds a number of features including various cheats and controller support) was hired to do coding work for the remake.
