The weirdest thing happened today when I played Binding of Isaac.  I was in a super secret room and I used the 2 of diamonds, and it gave me like EVERY upgrade.  Isaac became this huge hairy beast with so many familiars and flies that you could hardly see him.  I left all kinds of creep, I could fly, and my shots were huge and random, everything from fireballs to huge sickles, all randomly charmed.  When I touched rocks, they crumbled, and naturally the game was totally easy after that. All kinds of hearts, keys, bombs, and money was constantly being dropped in front of me too. I cruised through all, killing moms heart with tons of health and 99 coins. WTF happened?  i can't find anything on it.
Not impossible
just highly unlikely
I'm not calling you a liar because I know you wouldn't make stuff up, but that totally sounds like a "my uncle works at Nintendo" story.

You play on the 3DS right? That version is sort of infamous for the bugs and glitches in the game and doesn't have nearly as many updates, and handles memory things way differently. Sounds like it just bugged out some item values or something.


I asked my friend who has at least a couple thousand hours into the game series and that was his input

I'm glad you believe me, I just don't know if this was something that was supposed to happen or if the game malfunctioned.  Like, did the game glitch when I used the 2 of diamonds, or was it supposed to do this as some hidden thing?  I wish there was a way to look up previous seeds so I could go through that run again and try to replicate it.  I thought that I would be able to find info on this online just like every other thing I run across in this game, but no.  Otherwise I would have written the seed down and taken a pic of it or something.

Yes it was 3DS

Or maybe it didn't have so much to do with activating the card in the super secret room, like it was indirectly related vs being the trigger. 
I can be more specific than describing Isaac as a hairy beast.  He was about twice as big as normal, and orangeish brown, and round.  It almost looked like he had a lions mane or something.  It truly was like I had EVERYTHING.  There was so much going on, so many familiars doing different things.  Rocks I broke by touching turned into coins, and one of my familiars kept picking up the coins and turning them into other things.  I had so much going on, some of the abilities were recognizable because I've had them but others not.

There definitely are some weird little secrets in the game. What did the room look like? was it just a room that showed up when you blew a hole in the wall? What sort of other items did you have before that all happened?
And my shots changed randomly after changing rooms. A couple of time I was throwing HUGE sickles.  I also had big orange balls that shot out in threes.

My friend says he recognizes all the abilities you had so far and can name them, just give me a sec

but from the sounds of it, the game bugged and gave you pretty much every item. Depending on the order of items you get, it changes your appearance, some override others.

I had the blue map thing that shows you where all the secret rooms are, and I also had the 3d glasses that open up all the secret rooms for you without the need for bombs.  The super secret room I was in was red and the floor looked like one side of a five-sided die, but I don't remember what number it was showing.  I also don't remember if I got the two of diamonds in that room, or if I was carrying it with me and just decided to activate it in that room.

he said too Rebirth is buggy when it comes to companions. If you have too many companions, he said when you switch rooms it'll sometimes just give you more items that you didn't have before

oh you found the dice room? one sec
It was a super secret room that was red and the floor was a huge die face

yeah the way those rooms work is it re-shuffles your items completely. So every item you have is SUPPOSED to be switched for a random item. However it sounds like the game bugged and instead of just reshuffling your current items, it shuffled much more than that and gave you randomly a bunch of items.


Also, the three dollar bill will shuffle your tears every room
I just remembered that I couldn't fly as a result of the 'glitch'.  I could fly because I got the horse head later on while on that floor.  So scratch the idea of having literally everything from the glitch.

As for the big hairy thing, that's from one of the signs (leo), it also lets you break rocks

money dropping from rocks is another seperate items

having a companion pick up money and drop items in exchange is another item

having 99 of everyhting is, yet another item haha

it also reshuffles trinkets and stuff too. It's possible that you just got very very lucky with the reshuffling, or the game bugged and gave you much much more

two trail items, bum friend, and some other familiars also come to mind from what you described
So maybe it wasn't a glitch then, maybe it did exactly what it was supposed to.  Going into the room I had way more than my trinket and chargeable item, I also had a shitload of passive items from previous floors, like ones that change your stats or appearance.  Like when you finish and it shows you all the stuff you found on that run. It sounds like all that shit just got swapped out for a bunch of much more dramatic shit.

you just got very very lucky with the items it gave you, which triggered even more items for you based on the companions

do you remember if the room shook and went dark for a second? and then faded back in?
Sweet thank you and thank your Isaac oracle friend.

no i don't remember if that happened
A lot of the stuff it gave me is stuff that I never had before.  I wonder if those things were counted as found on my file, or if I have to find those things the hard way for it to count.
I had blue flies and at least one red fly.  I think I had about 6 familiars.  One left white creep and another one left red creep I think.  I left yellow.
