Bugs

Bug! Glass Cannon can be used to steal Devil Room items by using it to set your health to half of a Soul Heart or no health at all before you die. In the latter case, picking up any item that isn't a health upgrade will kill Isaac. Bug! If Tainted Forgotten takes damage with the cannon held above his head, he will be unable to fire and unable to attack. Exiting and continuing will fix this. The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
