Notes

  • The homing pellets will always track the enemy closest to the player, not those closest to the point of impact.
  • It's somewhat inconsistent how bullet modifiers apply to it. For items such as Frost Bullets Frost Bullets or Hot LeadHot Lead , the status effect will only be applied to the egg bullet, not the seekers.
  • Bizarrely, Homing BulletsHoming Bullets actually makes it take longer for the seekers to home in on an enemy.
  • If Red Gunjurers capture the bullets, they still retain their homing.

Trivia

  • This item is a reference to the popular philosophical question - "What came first, the chicken or the egg?"
  • This weapon appears to be a modified version of the Flare GunFlare Gun , sharing its overall shape and single shot clip.
  • This weapon's max ammo count of 120 may be a reference to how eggs are typically sold by the dozen.
