Description
These familiar red shoes will significantly increase your move speed and give you an interesting health mechanic which allows you to retain hearts, but also makes things more challenging.

If you take damage while having only red hearts, or only soul/black hearts, all but 1 half heart will be dropped on the floor, you can pick them all up again to have not lost any health, but they will despawn if you take too long.

If you have both red and soul/black hearts the extra hearts will act as a shield (soul/black normally, red if you have crows heart) the shield protects you from one attack, but removes all your extra hearts when it is lost.

Due to a few issues (like there not being half black hearts in the game and the games code not having a way to count how many half black hearts you have total) taking damage with no red hearts unfortunately means any black hearts lost will just turn into soul hearts.

The health mechanic of these shoes ignores sacrifice room spikes, curse room doors, spike chests, razors and devil bum deals, it does nothing with the lost or the keeper and it might not work with some modded characters or items which affect how health works.

The length of invincibility by default is about 50% higher than normal, and it can be changed easily by opening the lua file and editing the 'invincibilityframes' value.


This is included in POTATO PACK 1.

Very interesting concept. it would be more fitting if the item would completely remove your life when you collect it (as with The Lost) and you would lose all your coins when you get hit, which you can then collect again but disappear after a while if you do not collect them. the dissapearing like Tainted keepers Coins from the enemies. And you die if you get hit with 0 coins.

This synergizes well with other "don't take damage" items such as Damocles from "Antibirth"... but you MAY want to take some speed-down items (and/or Libra), just so you don't accidentally run into the things you're supposed to dodge.

I did some testing, found that boosting I frames by about 50% felt good without being too strong, update should be up now, if you still feel like its not long enough you can alter the value in the lua
