This is honestly the only way I've been able to enjoy and complete the unlocks for this character, well done.
Also, I have found a way to be able to cheese Double Pedastal rooms...at least the usual alignment of them in Treasure Rooms. Position and lock in place Esau to the far end of the room, being in the path of the item you want him to take, and the instant that Jacob takes the item you want him to take, let go of the Lock button to make Esau zip over to him, and he SHOULD take the other item. It's worked every time I tried it, at least in the usual DPedastal Treasure Room arrangement.

Bro everyones complaining like you dont need to download it

I mean most of the time you're gonna be always close to each other so it kinda doesn't defeat the purpose of the character.

AudomarIsGay 14 Mar, 2024 @ 10:51pm 
Mod, but the purpose of the character, it’s to be to play :|
YellyTheDuck 9 Mar, 2024 @ 9:51am 
Good mod, this somewhat defeats the purpose of the character, it's available to be fun to play :steamhappy:

Should make it so they can still be seperated via ctrl
so you can still take both items from options/alt path or get both the negative and the polaroid
Zergling Tostado 26 Dec, 2023 @ 12:39pm 
Thank you, I love their tainted version but getting it again on a new save is so painfull

MY GOD WHEN YOU HOLD CONTROL THEN LET GO OF HIM HIS LIKE A FRIGGIN MAGNET! it also reminds me of one of the asdfmovie jokes where he just gravitates to the cactus

That is the damn right function that the stupid developers should add it to this stupid character
Jason 5 Apr, 2023 @ 8:10pm 
Very good mod! Maybe add a button to switch the attraction between them?
ShadowDodger 11 Mar, 2023 @ 9:39pm 
I'm not sure if it's a cheat-lite mod or QoL mod, but it looks very helpful. I remember multiple runs ruined just because esau bumped into an obsticle.

for one very unfortunate instant, it looked like they were docking.

WHY DO THEY HAVE THEIR DICKS OUT WHAT THE FUCK
Jeskai 7 Oct, 2022 @ 9:14pm 
i hate this character so much... this mod at least makes them less annoying to play. i wish there was a mod that makes dying as one of them not dying as both!
MadameGhast4 22 Sep, 2022 @ 11:27am 
I'm sorry, not a big fan. Sure it is nice not being inconvenienced during combat as much but you loose out on all the upsides of Jacob and Esau. As a semi Jacob and Esau main, I feel like this looses out on what makes the character unique. No more double item takes, no double bombing, and less of a "single player co-op" feel. I am happy that this mod exists as an idea on how to buff the character but I feel like it just hurts the character.
If I was to advise on how to improve the mod, I'd suggest having a unique button that switches between "Hand-holding" mode and "Split-up" mode. This fixes the issue while keeping the unique feel of the character.

One last thing, if you were someone who doesn't care about the unique-ness of Jacob and Esau, I'd heavily recommend this mod since it is a good one. It just doesn't help my playstyle.

This mod definitely gives better control over Jacob and Esau, but it also makes some of their advantages (picking up two pedestals, separate bomb placement) a lot trickier. J+E are still totally unbearable for me, but this helps reduce the chance of dying because of movement significantly. I do reccomend it for those who want a better experience with these characters.

10/10 better than fiend folio, makes j+e GENUINELY PLAYABLE
Soffi 6 Aug, 2022 @ 6:07pm 
:repenny: PRO TIP FOR GETTING DOUBLE PEDESTAL ITEMS: :repenny: Position Esau right next to one item, get close to the other with Jacob and run up to it. Just before Jacob picks it up, let go of RT and Esau will be attracted toward Jacob and automatically pick up the other item. Remember you have 4 frames of wiggle room.

I figured this out just after two tries so even if it's a bit trickier than without the mod, it's totally doable consistently!
molly 9 Apr, 2022 @ 8:37am 
Could you add a option to activate and deactivate this mod quickly within the game so we could deactivate the mod when there's 2 pedestal item
Omar QP 8 Apr, 2022 @ 11:32pm 
thanks for creating this mod, it makes it playable jacob and esau

it's so dumb that this isn't in the game by default
