How to get the "Mom's heart" endings after unlocking "It Lives!" - Message Against Bullying

So, I've unlocked It Lives! before getting all the endings for beating Mom's Heart. Is there any way to unlock them now, or is it no longer possible?



Best Answer

No. It Lives does not lock you out of anything that you would get from Mom's Heart, as It Lives is just a more difficult version of Mom's Heart. Defeating It Lives will count for all unlocks that are contingent on beating Mom's Heart.

From Gamepedia:

It is a stronger version of Mom's Heart that summons bosses alongside regular Womb/Utero enemies.

Lower on the page, it lists all of the Mom's Heart-related unlocks as related unlocks for It Lives, as well.

If you are referring to the endings, as @Pinckerman stated, you should have unlocked the Mom's Heart-related endings before unlocking It Lives. It is not possible to miss any of those endings while still unlocking It Lives.

How many times do I have to beat moms heart?

You have to beat mom's heart 11 times, after that, it becomes a harder boss called It Lives. Then you can go to two new final levels with two new final boses. Kill those two boses five times each and you will unlock another new final level for both of those paths, so two new final levels and bosses. Enjoy.

What happens after beating it lives?

After beating It Lives you can continue on to Sheol/Cathedral. If you're lucky you might get the trapdoor the Sheol spawn before you've unlocked It Lives, but that's quite rare.

Answer 2

As far as I know, after killing Mom's heart 11 times it will be permanently replaced by It Lives. So if you've unlocked It Lives! you should already have the first 11 endings.

From Endings:

Endings 1 - 11 are available after defeating Mom's Heart. Each time you defeat the boss a new ending is unlocked.

But if you mean that you still miss Mom's Heart related achievements, you can unlock them also beating It Lives!, as you can see here It Lives! has the same bunch of achievements for Mom's Heart.

Answer 3

Found this out on my own. The game doesn't tell you, but after beating It Lives, you'll recieve a Note that an item has appeared in the basement. That item is the item you would normally unlock by beating Mom's heart. You can also watch that item's ending through the Stats menu.
