Jellyman Glitch

[Sataniel]

So I was excited, I had just got the Distilled Gunk on Floor 9, but was just about to finish for the 2nd time so I went about the process, keeping the Distilled Gunk with me...

Now on Floor 1 again, consuming the Distilled Gunk does nothing. No text, no effect, just emptying an inventory space..

Quiet sad, as Jellyman was is my favourite (as a Spellcaster in all games, this is my calling :P). Sadly, I have literally every other character unlocked now... Except Jellyman..

Try restarting the game and look if you got him as a starting character;

Time Stamp & Events

20:00 - Combine Green & Blue into Distilled Goop.
20:30 - Reach next floor (Floor 10 Boss).
20:40 - Defeat Boss.
20:42 - Pick up Loot.
20:43 - Pick up Sasquatch Statue. Unlock Sasquatch.
20:44 - Leave the Dungeon (through the door).
20:46 - Upon reentry of Floor 1, I attempt to Consume Distilled Goop.
20:46 - Nothing. Goop has "0" charges when displayed in Hotbar, and using it provides nothing.


I have just played through another full dungeon crawl with the same character, carrying the goop the whole way and farming for another green and blue mixture collection and even visited the mixing table. I tried the (old) goop after I mixed the new goop together, but it did not have any effect. I then tried the new goop and was immediately awarded with the Jellyman aswell as my form was altered.


IMO it is a glitch. The goop *should* work whether it's on Floor 9 or Floor 1, as long as the concoction is mixed.

My guess would be picking up sasquatch somehow breaks it

I used mine before entering Ava fight

Does using it delete your current character and replace them with the jellyman?

Negative. When I have the (old) Goop in my Hotbar it has a "0" beside it, indicating there are no more of that item present. When I have the new Goop in my Hotbar, it doesn't have a number but doesn't show depleted.


When you use the concoction, it turns your PC into a Jellyman. Yes, it did turn me into Jelly when I used the new Goop, and that's when I unlocked the Jellyman. Still required a client restart.


edit: I'd like to mention I kept the old goop until I could try the new goop side by side (and to do so I quit without saving, if the goop had no effect).

I'd like to mention, if you use a functional goop to unlock the Jellyman, you can avoid changing your current characters class by quitting after consumption and reloading your character from the last save.

Consuming the goop does nothing for me... at all. Don't turn into a jellyman, don't unlock anything (with restart).

IF it's the same cause as mine, I think it's because either:

A) you did not consume it before finishing the Dungeon (beating final boss and exiting the dungeon).
or B) you unlocked another character (such as demon, Sasquatch or undead) while having the goop in your possession

I was planning on doing repeats of the process to try and zero in on the bug (and see if it was fixed). I've since unlocked the Jellyman by redoing the mission and consuming the Goop immediately.

[Chairman Noodle]

Yeah that's probably it, I didn't try consuming it immediately because I'd read or somehow come to believe you were supposed to hold it for the next run. I already had every other character and didn't pick up the jade monkey when I was on that run. PITA getting the drops and then the apparatus, don't think I'll try redoing that.
