So, i beat Mom on my first try.

Oh,Binding Of Isaac. A 2D randomly generated Dark Souls. With permadeath, and many of your powers and status depending or your LUCK, it's not hard to see many people saying "Man, i took 8 hours to beat Mom." and things like that. Hell, there's a thread like that here on Giant Bomb! There are even some blogs out there using The Binding Of Isaac to discuss death in videogames and shit like that... But the thing is, i couldn't join the Dead Party until my second try...

I think the game makes it harder for you if ou are very lucky once. And now, i'm 8 hours without beating Mom again, *le sigh*.

But at least i can say: "Man, i beat Mom in my first try." like it was a real achievement.

Yeah, i didn't killed her. BUT... I Beat her, and now Isaac is standing on her sleeping body. 'Cause real heros don't kill. See: Snake, Adam Jensen.

I'm having the damnedest time even getting to her with Judas. I beat her with all three of the regular characters, but Judas is just too slow for success. I even had to switch from full controller to WASD for movement (more accurate than a d-pad) and just use the controller's face buttons shooting.
 
She's absolute cake with the Bible, but I almost never luck into it.

Bah, Bible is overrated.

Maybe because I've done it quite a few times, but Mom isn't that difficult. Just stay in the center and step aside when you see the shadow. The last times I played I took either no hits or one hit.

Her heart is harder than her because she summons that weird eye-things.

@MikeGosot: The Parasites? Or the the laser ones? Only thing you have to do is take care of them first. After that it's easier than Mom.

Laser ones. I only got to her heart once and with ONE heart, so, before i could kill them, they killed me.

Because you can shoot at it more often i think, and her heart has attacks that suck ass.

Well, when you get to the Heart if you have been playing well, you're pretty powerful. Just stay in one side and avoid the bombs it throws.

So far I have beaten Mom 11 times, beaten Sheol thrice. (Cain, Isaac, and Judas)

During my last attempt with Maggy I was set; I had Mom's Knife, Mom's Bra, the 9 volt battery, Mom's Contact, the relic, and 10 hearts coming into Sheol. But of course I had to go through the entire level before I found out where the Boss Room was. No one dropped a heart (I'm sure that's on purpose for the level.) I was still pretty confident, I mean that is a pretty nice line of power ups there. I have been killing all the bosses leading up to it before Mom's Bra could even wear off. But nope, I died. Haven't touch the game since.

If you have The Lovers card, you can save them for the Womb, as the card drop 2 hearts when activated.  I usually prefer Soul Hearts since i make many Pacts with the Devil, but still, The Lover is a good card for times like these.
