Trivia[]
- "<3" is the ASCII/Emoticon representation of a heart.
- According to Edmund McMillen's first post-Repentance Lore Stream, the visual appearance of this item is a reference to the movie 'Raising Arizona' in which the character of Glen passingly remarks about an orphan child with his heart born on the outside of his chest.
- McMillen states that this remark left a lasting impression on him when he was younger, and as such he wished to incorporate it into the game in some way.
- This scene itself is a reference to the rare birth defect 'ectopia cordis' in which the child's heart is located either partially or entirely outside of their chest.
