I've seen that happen in one of Northernlion's recent videos. I suspect it combines with the bug where you get a regular room with enemies inside of the secret room, and then the game branches another room off of that.
Yeah, had that as well once, luckily i had bombs to get back. Seems to be connected to XL floors, because this is the 3rd or 4th time i've seen this "bug" and it was always an XL floor.
I feel ya man, this just happened to me...
If you were a tad bit more fortunate, you could have TRIED for a secret room below you, but you have no bombs.
There was a blue rock that used my only bomb sadly. At least it was only about 5 minutes into a run so it was more funny than annoying.
I'm more fascinated by the level generating algorithm and how it creates these satellite rooms on XL maps (I've had it happen two other times, but those times I did have bombs). I'm guessing that the additional rooms from XL spawn after the secret rooms have already been placed and treat those rooms just like normal rooms. At least that's the most logical explanation I've come up with.
