Bugs[]

Bug Bug! If Baby Plum is currently active when Tainted Lazarus swaps forms, Baby Plum will vanish. Once Tainted Lazarus swaps forms again, Baby plum will re-appear and continue her attacks.

If she was doing her spit attack, her and her projectiles will end up stuck in place and she will not stop attacking until the player leaves the room.

Bug Bug! If Baby Plum is charmed by The Siren, her animation will freeze, she will stop firing bullets, and she will only be able to deal contact damage to Isaac.
