Trivia
- The Breath of Life refers to God breathing life into the soil to create the first human.
- Breath of Life initially had a different animation, almost exactly alike to Chocolate Milk's effect. However, this animation has one frame of Isaac holding his breath that isn't found in Chocolate Milk's sprites. It even has its own .anm2 file, paralleling Chocolate Milk's. The finished effect for Breath of Life is a gradual change of Isaac's skin tone, from perky pink to hold-my-breath blue.
- Depleting the skill's charge turns Isaac a similar color to ???, who is implied to be Isaac after suffocating in his toy chest.
Bugs
Bug! This item does not work with Broken Remote. Bug! Replacing this item with another active item, switching into another active item with Schoolbag, or directly removing it via debug console while holding the active item key causes Isaac to take damage, even if the charge bar isn't depleted at all.
