Materials

Definition

There are huge amounts of different materials in Noita, each with its own special properties and effects. They all fall into the following categories:

Name	Properties
Solids	Materials that consist of solid pixels that do not move. They can be removed or be transformed into other types by spells.
Rigid Body items	Solids formed into a loose item that is subject to in-game physics, unlike terrain.
Powders	Materials that flow downwards and are subjected to gravity. They will naturally form piles on the ground.
Liquids	Substances that form flat pools and lakes inside suitable pits. They can be bottled in Flasks and often inflict various Status Effects
Magical Liquids	Similar to normal liquids, but all have some sort of transmutive or magical effect. Most of them commonly spawn inside Flasks on pedestals.
Gaseous	non-collision pixels that obey gravity inversly, flowing upwards instead of down and forming "lakes" in pits in cave ceilings.
Organic and others	Anything else that doesn't quite fit into the other categories, such as background objects, meat or fire.

Solid

Solid Materials
Name	Source	Hardness	Found as Rigid Body	Appearance	Notes	ID
Dirt	Surface	3 Medium			Can be displaced by kicking.
Ground	Various	3 Medium			Can be displaced by kicking. May be created by mud and lava touching.	grass
Rock	Various	4 Strong	Fragile stalactites in the main cave entrance. Spark Bolt damages them like with ice.		May be created by water and lava touching. Will slowly melt into lava while in contact with lava.	rock_box2d
Damp rock		4 Strong			Only found naturally.
Glass	Various, Flasks	0 Fragile	Lanterns, flasks	Depends on flask contents	Fragile solids can be cracked merely with Spark Bolt.	glass
Fragile glass	Snowy Depths, the Vault	0 Fragile	After being cracked like ice	Transparent	Rarely appears as the lining of a box structure (sometimes with a random amount of enemies, liquid and/or wand inside).
Nest	Forest	0 Fragile	Nests.	A hay-like appearance.	Only appears in the giant tree's nest (as we know of), doesn't appear anywhere else. Also the material of the corpses of firefly nests.	nest_box2d
Wood	Various	2 Light	Wheelbarrows, waterwheels, explosive crates, gunpowder crates		Flammable.	wood
Wood (Giant Tree)	Forest	5 Powerful			Wood which the Giant Tree is made of. Unlike regular wood, isn't flammable, and is unaffected by acid.	wood_tree
Steel	Various	5 Powerful		Brown-grey	Conductive. Slowly melts when in contact with lava, and rusts with water. Dissolved by acid.	steel
Dense Steel	Hiisi Base	6 Extreme	Contains an extremely large pool of Teleportatium (possibly other potions as well).	Blue-grey	Conductive. Does not rust in contact with water, is not dissolved by acid.
Rusted steel	Steel	2 Light		Slightly dark orange	Much more easily destroyed than steel. Only produced where water contacts steel directly, making steel objects only produce a thin coat of rusted steel.	steel_rust
Aluminum	Magical Temple	1 Very Light	Temple braziers		Flammable, burns blue.	aluminium
Rusted metal	Various	1 Very Light	Minecarts, explosive containers	Varies	Unique material separate from steel and rusted steel. Conductive, and explosive containers will react violently. Rusts when water touches it, though this seems to be only cosmetic.	metal_rust
Ice	Snowy Depths, spells	0 Fragile	Upon taking damage, cracks and eventually drops	Translucent light blue	Enemies turned into Ice do not deal damage to other enemies when moving fast. (Does ice form from freezing vapour + water?)	ice_b2
Toxic ice	Frozen Vault, spells	0 Fragile	Upon taking damage, cracks and eventually drops	Translucent light green	Will do damage upon contact but is prevented by the Toxic Sludge Immunity perk. Otherwise functions like ice.
Frozen acid	Sources of cold	0?		?	Deals damage on contact, though much less than acid (on par with toxic ice). Produced by freezing acid, using effects such as the Freeze Charge projectile modifier spell. Functions like (toxic) ice, cracking into rigid body objects upon being damaged.
Frozen blood	Sources of cold	0?		?	Produced by freezing blood, using effects such as that of the Freeze Charge spell. Functions like ice, cracking into rigid body objects upon being damaged.
Frozen slime	Sources of cold	?		?	Produced by freezing slime, using effects such as that of the Freeze Charge spell. Functions like ice, cracking into rigid body objects upon being damaged.
Dense rock	Various	4 Strong			Found as part of level boundaries. Unaffected by acid, but can be otherwise damaged by most spells that damage regular rock, though a bit slower.
Extremely dense rock	Various	6 Extreme			Found as part of level boundaries. The strongest material available. Unlike Dense Rock, only Black Hole, Matter Eater, and Luminous Drill can damage it. Explosion of Thunder can turn it to powder, but not destroy it.
Brickwork	Holy Mountain, Temple of the Art, various other	5 Powerful	Statues in Pyramid		Comprises Holy Mountains and various temple-themed biomes, including the Temple of The Art and The Laboratory. Acid, Black Hole, Matter Eater and Luminous Drill will destroy it, as well as giant worms. If too much brickwork surrounding the Holy Mountain room is destroyed, the gods are angered.
Sandstone	Desert	3 Medium
Bone wall	Desert	3 Medium	Giant skull in the desert
Packed snow	Snowy Depths	1 Very Light	None.	Blueish-white	Can melt into water. Isn't a powder like snow and so isn't affected by the Dissolve Powders perk.
Frozen rock	Various	2 Light			Weaker than most other rocks. Can be destroyed slowly by Spark Bolts.
Cursed rock	Tower	6 Probably very tough		Dark reddish gray with blackish spots	Similarly to toxic rock, you take constant damage while touching it, but also while in the area where it spawns. As with all damage, this can be blocked with ambrosia. Matter Eater does not work on cursed rock.
Greedcursed Rock	Curse of Greed!	? (most likely similar to cursed rock)		Sickly green with bright green edges and neon green glow	Also similar to toxic rock, the player takes constant damage while touching it, dealing more damage per second the more the player's body is in contact with it. Can be blocked by ambrosia, but is ultimately inescapable with the Curse of Greed perk.
Cheese	Spoiler territory.
Wax	Mines, Magical Temple, the Vault	1 Very Light		White	Candle or mushroom-like appearance.
Toxic rock	Mines, Fungal Caverns	4? Strong		Glowing green	Deals contact damage which is not prevented by the Toxic Sludge Immunity perk. Often spawns forming small caves containing a treasure chest or wand inside. Otherwise generates from contact between Lava and Toxic Sludge.

Organic Materials and Other
Name	Source	Hardness	Appearance	Notes	ID

Rotten meat	Red-blooded enemies	1 Very Light	?	Corpses collapse into this ugly pile. As with any powder, it can be kicked around, and may even spawn drops of blood.

Slimy Meat	Slime-blooded Enemies
Green Slimy Meat	Toxic-slime blooded enemies, Kolmisilmä			Consuming grants Food Poisoning.
Weird / Toad Meat	Toad enemies, Konna, Jättikonna.	?	?	Consuming grants Tripping effect. Used to create Berserkium. Currently not labeled in-game (labeled as ' or in other words no name given).

Peat	Various	0 Fragile		Appears naturally and goes in the foreground layer (meaning that things can't collide with it). When ingested, will cause the player to become flatulent and periodically fart flammable gas.	peat
Fungus	Fungal Caverns, Mines	?	hot pink	Slowly grows upwards. Blocks movement of liquids, but not solids - this can create highly effective 'potion baths'. Can be destroyed to create Slime. If eaten, audio and visual effects occur, representing a psychoactive trip. Fungus may also be found as a material in a flask called "glowing fungal spore", creating background elements on the surface and in the Mines. If these scenic fungi are destroyed, it spawns fast-disappearing liquid fungus. Liquid fungus applies the slime stain.
Blue Fungus	?	?	Cyan-Blue	Consuming grants food poisoning and gassy.
Fire	Various	N/A		Burns, melts, and/or evaporate some materials. Will combust most creatures and deal damage over time. Can be rarely found in a flask.

Sign fire	Forest, Mines Entrance	N/A		Background flames that highlight the signs showing the game's controls at spawn. It doesn't hurt the player or burn anything at all.

Plant Seed	Rare flask spawn	N/A	?	Wherever the plant seed falls it will grow small shrubs and bushes once you add water. Material shows up as "plant seed", and glitters every few seconds. Seed: 971784649 (5 o'clock from entrance to mines, under the oil container)
Hell Slime	Bled by Helvetin sylkijä.	?	Translucent Red	Starts as a powder then turns into a solid when it lands. Dissolves when in contact with Water. Becomes solid when it lands on Lava, allows Lava to pass through it while solid, simply moving out the way.
