Gunjuror and "The Scrambler" Problem
Not sure if it's intended but if you shoot the gun, "The Scrambler", at a Gunjuror (The Red Wizard that catches your bullets) and he shoots back that bullet or "egg" into a wall the new bullets spawned will be considered his. They'll home in on you whilst looking yellow as though they were yellow friendly bullets, as opposed to being the red enemy bullets that every enemy shoots.

I know you're not supposed to shoot at the Gunjuror while his shield is up but I ended up taking 6 hearts or so of damage from a few shots which seems incredibly punishing, many times more punishing than when shooting the Gunjuror with anything else. It seems very inconsistent in that the bullets were yellow but also inconsistent in that when you shoot the Gunjuror with almost any other gun he'll shoot it back with a fixed speed and with abilities removed.

He shot the original bullet back at a fixed speed but it seems because that bullet spawned new bullets they were different. They were fast and super homing. They were super homing in that once I took damage from one bullet and had my brief damage invulnerability the others kept homing back and forth, essentially being glued to me.

It doesn't seem like this is supposed to happen because of the retained yellow colour of the bullets but even if intended it seems too punishing. It seems to be a fairly rare problem and i've only experienced it once but even so if you could fix the problem it would be very much appreciated.

This literally just happened to me. I lost a run with 7 full hearts, 2 black chest items that trivialized bosses (Au gun and Composite) and was breezing through the hollow with my trusty Scrambler when as the shot was in the air they put up their shield. Cue homing death. Unbelievably frustrating and it swiftly ended the single most OP run I have had. I sincerely hope this gets fixed. The game is brilliant, and even though I'm sure this is a rare issue, it's devastating.
