Malware & Spam - The forgotten Modern Horseman of the Apocalypse [RGON]

Description
The forgotten Modern Horseman has appeared in the Basement!
The forgotten Modern Horseman of the Apocalypse Malware and his trusty steed Spam have appeared in the Basement, flooding your screen with malicious software, intrusive ads, and endless spam.

Like a virus burrowing into the heart of our digital infrastructure, they corrupt and consume, the digital embodiment of the modern world's relentless Pollution.

Face them in the Dankest of Depths or the Scarred Womb, and fight to keep the digital apocalypse at bay... for now.



*** THIS MOD REQUIRES REPENTOGON AND STAGEAPI TO WORK! ***



Features:
  • An entirely new and original Modern Harbinger inspired by the Modern Horseman of the Apocalypse from the "Fiend Folio" mod.
      Malware & Spam have 25% chance to replace either Horseman in the Dank Depths or Scarred Womb, therefore increasing your chances of fighting them when using Book of Revelations!

  • A Boss specific item: The Digital Pony!
      Let's you dash forward, leaving behind explosive pop-ups in your path that also inherit most of your bomb modifiers!

  • A brand new thematic trinket.
      The Locust of Malware spawns a light blue locust which on contact freezes enemies and their projectiles in random intervals, similar to the Broken Modem effect!

  • Unique mouse interactions!
      Using mouse controls, Malware's attacks can be interacted with, providing an additional level of Chaos and Fun!

  • Special mod support.
      Fiend Folio:
    • Has the chance of replacing Pollution as the digital equivalence!
    • Locust of Malware turns into Flea of Malware, spawning a light blue skuzz when entering rooms!
    • Using "Defuse" let's you defuse the exploding pop-up attack!

This mod was commissioned by me, Düpsy, for PixelPlz and Ferpe who brought my original idea to life in a way I only could have dreamed of! I am really glad with how this small mod and its features turned out and I hope that all of you have as much fun fighting them. :)

This is an interesting concept! However, I have a constructive criticism for you. As I compared Malware with the original horseman (I’ve done this with Pollution and Meltdown as well) I’ve noticed that the color palette is not consistent. I have not figured out what his signature color was until I saw the flea/locust.

If you ever need ideas, the Pony should definitely be The Web-Surfer or Review Bomber

most likely an issue with StageAPI since re-entering custom rooms can cause things like that

Don't know if there's a problem with this mod, that I like very much, but I got this crash reentering a run:
