Creep is a fluid produced by various Monsters, Bosses, and Collectables. It affects either Isaac or Monsters and Bosses in certain ways when they come in contact with it, unless they are Flying. All Creep will dissipate after a set amount of time.
Types of Creep[]
Red Creep[]
Red Creep is the most common type of Creep, differentiated from regular blood by its glowing nature. It can be left by explosive red projectiles, or a trail behind certain Monsters as they move. Red Creep deals a full heart of damage to Isaac upon touch and is harmless to Monsters and Bosses.
