Trivia

  • The pickup quote "We all float down here... " is a reference to the Stephen King book 'IT'.
  • According to Edmund McMillen's first post-Repentance Lore Stream, the explanation behind the visuals of Transcendence (namely the lack of a noose and more importantly, a body) is simply that McMillen found the idea of a head flying around amusing.
  • If Collectible Scissors icon.pngScissors are used after picking up Transcendence, Isaac will have no visible body from which to shoot tears. Only a shadow and orbitals will remain.
    • (in Repentance) In Repentance, however, blood gurgles will be spewing constantly from the body, making it much easier to keep track of it.
  • This item is used in Solar System (challenge #6).
  • In the original Binding Of Isaac, Transcendence was unlocked by beating Boss Mom's Heart ingame.pngMom's Heart two times instead of three.
  • The item sprite is a reference to the suicide method of one hanging themselves with a rope connected to an anchor point on top.
