Passive — Fish Pouch

A fish every 15 kills (up to 2) (level 1).

Grows by itself with level: a fish every 15 kills at level 1 and every 11 at level 10.

Stores up to 2 fish in the pouch, which last the whole run: you start with 1 and get another every 15 kills (at level 1). If something was about to take a heart, you lose a fish instead.

Tips

  • It has the lowest fire rate of the eight, so lean on its pouch and its special rather than on rapid shots.
  • It holds up to 2 fish, and a fish takes the hit that would have cost you a heart. It earns a fish every 15 kills at level 1.
