Your Death Total?

[Saxorlaud]

I just beat the game today and I had an embarrassing death total of 375 by time I beat The Devil. I spent a good number of lives perfecting the first level and the first boss and Perilous Pier got a ton of lives out of me. What was your death total?

Would be nice if restarts were counted as deaths or at least as a seprate counter.
I'm positive all of us restarted fights way more than what the pool suggests.

There is a restart button 0.0?

Every time you hit escape and retry.

Wish I had know that before dying 400+ times.

What kind of person never pauses the game.... you never quit to map to change charms / weapons either? strange.

I didn't realize that retrying didn't count as a death, especially since the water pool specifically says, "this is the number of times you have FAILED/perished." Though I guess I should have figured it since I found out that exiting to the map doesn't count either. I'll just tell myself that I didn't give up and that's why my death count is so high.

I am always the persisent type where I refused to change anything I had until I won.

wow thats a cheesy way of rigging your death count (not that it matters)

i'd rather die if its quick then go through the trouble of reseting, the only time i bother is when i don't avoid an early attack

after beating the game, I checked my death count and had 170. I played through every level on Regular.

Do you really think I retry at the last second to avoid some silly death count?
I wish the death count worked properly, but I'm not gonna watch myself die like an idiot if I can save those extra 5~10 seconds of idle.

Wait, you can see the death total? I completely missed it.

There's a pool of water you can approach that should tell you. I know for sure there's one in the very start of Inkwell 2, next to the clown bastard.

Wow, cool. Thanks!
edit: Ok so apparently I died 126 beating the game on Regular, though I dont think it counts retries, which is fine by me, because most of my retries were getting hit right at the start of the fight by some RNG or such, or me pressing the wrong buttons because Im not used to controller.

tbh for me, itll be more difficult to get P on all run and gun levels than beat bosses on expert lol.

Only past the first island, and I'm already approaching 50 deaths fast. Likely going to end up within the 150-200 range after the endgame.
