did you get fake png'd :^)

I did 😭

crude hazel
#

there, fool with transparent pixels cut off

#

you can use it for the card shape

buoyant saddle
#

If you want feedback about the card design, then imo the biggest problem is with perspective. It looks like tere are multiple perspective making it looking a little odd. All base cards are flat style also I'm not sure the cards are in correct scale. The main object should be bigger

crude hazel

#

wheres the closing parenthesises?

mint fable
#

Grammar mistake, it happens

mint fable
#

Is this any good as a background for the cards?

maiden socket
#

It's nice but repeats a lot
I might take a crack at making one too, seems fun

buoyant saddle
#

ha, that was my guess that you will do 😄

#

still, your cards are off with scale ?

#

ok I see what you did

the base size is 63x93
you made the graphic 630x930 which is incorrect, you should only scale picture by whole pixel
so 2^n

1x, 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x etc

you scaled by 10x times which is not whole pixel scaling

#

also you don't need to use frame if you are creating new card type, in your place I would use same logic as stone cards are using

limber bane
buoyant saddle
#

also draw always in 1x scale (smallest one)

gray socket
#

i will be drawing in 15x and using the square tool for each pixel

buoyant saddle
#

that would be a case but he drew in 10x scale, so you can revert it, you would need to redraw it if you would want to use it in game,
also slightly diffrent pixel size gives diffrent feeling

limber bane
#

Time to draw on paper, take a screenshot and scale it to 71x95 using a free online tool balatrojoker

gray socket
#

you can resize using nearest neighbour can’t you

burnt ginkgo
#

correct

buoyant saddle
#

from 1x to 2^n yes

#

or opposite

#

but if its like 15x it will not be perfect

burnt ginkgo
#

i just tried it at 15x and it looks perfect to me

mint fable
#

Next time I'll save it as x16

buoyant saddle
#

if you will look at bottom or upper card corner you will see the artifact of not perfect scaling

#

you can just zoom in for it to look normal when editing 🙂

worthy summit
#

10X works fine

#

1X works fine for me, but any integer is identical

buoyant saddle
#

for exporting I'm using 4x

worthy summit
#

I love seeing the art! It doesn't have to adhere to anyone's standard remember

#

Just as long as you created it and you want to share with the community - I appreciate your passion for the game 🙂

mint fable
#

Ngl I'm more hyped for the full release of Balatro than any triple A title in years

buoyant saddle
#

if you create in 1x there is not a problem, but if you create in 10x then there is as you can introduce too small pixels or it will just but cut off, the standard non whole pixel artifacts, so to prevent extra work for redrawing is to better knew that 🙂

#

there will be Hades 2, maybe not a tripple A title but would give it solid A title 🙂

mint fable

#

You've highlighted a single pixel mistake. Not to sound like an ass, but can you stop being so pedantic about fan art?

blissful wadi
#

wowwww

buoyant saddle
#

it's single per n line that will repeat and if you are unlucky it can happen to crucial element like eye or something else. Just explaining the scaling problem for non whole pixels

mint fable
#

Do you want the file to do it yourself if it matters to you so much?

making a little inspiration / ref board and man
i didnt know STS had so many cool potions. i loooove silly potion bottles

burnt ginkgo
#

that got a whole update with the addition of the last character in the game

#

was great to see all the new designs

maiden socket
#

yeah this wiki page is like crack

#

i loooove roguelike items i looove variance on a pattern my beloved

burnt ginkgo
#

lol

#

sometimes the game glitches a little and the dual-color potions have only 1 color

#

we say they've expired

maiden socket
#

i FINALLY found th epost i was looking for

#

half dozen really cool potion bottles n effects
I think this post is rad

#

Especially this one

uagh needle jumpscare

#

those are really cool otherwise though

maiden socket

Ack sry xwx its not tagged on the tumblr either

acoustic pier

glue one is funny lol

#

Anyway on-topic I think the alchemical cards from #1192276491120152646 have a lot of potential
Thinkin bout the alchemical processes too that would fit well, like Distilling (Select 3 cards of the same rank, combine into one with same suit but random enhancement?)

acoustic pier
#

yeah actually having consumables to use mid-round with temporary effects would be really cool and a great usage of consumable slots

#

lots of great design space there

#

and the alchemy jokers would go so hard...

maiden socket
#

for sure
been thinking about what palette to give them. I like Bolt's wood and gold palette but fear it overlaps with the tarot palette a little

#

Maybe a soft red?

acoustic pier
#

maybe a cool grey as a base colour, for stone and metal

#

which would make the components pop too

maiden socket
#

Hmm. Yeah i see where youre coming from

#

but I think any color would be able to do that if theyre subtle and desaturated, like the planet cards do this

acoustic pier
#

thats a good point

#

red could look really cool as like, fire

maiden socket
#

lemme slop some options up

acoustic pier
#

no slop emoji to react with 😔

it rymes with slop

maiden socket
#

remembering how fucked up symbols get when you get historical on em
A lot of alchemical processes share symbols with the zodiac

#

But there are several versions

acoustic pier
#

get silly with it, mix and match 'em

maiden socket
#

We'll see , I'll experiment but I'm hesitant to include the zodiac symbols purely because of the baggage (and Isaac I guess)
Astrologys cool and all but . Y'know

acoustic pier
#

yeah lmao

#

:33

maiden socket
#

sighhh. :33

crude hazel
# mint fable Is this any good as a background for the cards?

giving some legitimate feedback on this: i see some repetition in the wood grain, which should be avoided to make it look more natural. alternatively, you can tone down / remove the horizontal lines so it ends up being one whole plank. this helps with keeping the card simple enough so that the main object is then emphasized. in terms of colour, it looks like chocolate to me 😋. Chocolate tastes good but wood is obviously better for the colour. If you have trouble making an accurate wood colour, you can just google search for some hex colour codes for wood (it helps)

maiden socket
#

Yeah picking a palette is tough especially with this games consistent visual style

crude hazel
#

yea

#

i might try to make a random pack of card art when i get some time

maiden socket
#

Ooo fun

acoustic pier
#

swag!

maiden socket
#

yeaaah, not very happy with this, consider it a rough draft
but I do think it could use some rounded elements considering how many alchemical charts n stuff looove circles all the time everywhere

this is legit sick with it

my main gripe is I dislike how it meshes with the balatro blueblack , but a lot of the palette is reserved for other meanings

#

it just needs transition

Good thing I'm in charge of hiring for the art department because I was worried for a sec I might be out of a job

Ah yup

Theres like 12-14 cards in a pack i spose

I'm doing a think

most of the alchemy cards would (if done) be elements/minerals

the bolts are behind the value i think

#

so

pulsar vigil
#

they hold a bunch of markers and draw on the card

hushed moss
#

sarent the bolts behinf the value of the card

pulsar vigil
#

I mean bonus, mult and wild could just as easily be stamped on with ink

#

Nah

#

its always the same

hushed moss
#

huh

maiden socket
#

branding iron

rain salmon
#

For lucky they put your card in an air fryer

#

Make it crisp

pulsar vigil
#

Hardest part of these cards is the symbols i think

pulsar vigil
crude hazel
#

that looks very cool

pulsar vigil
#

Based on @maiden socket's distill card art

crude hazel
#

still looks very nice regardless

pulsar vigil
pulsar vigil
#

the next few up

#

i guess i'm shooting for 16-18

#

I'm also coming up with ideas for the effects as i work on them

sand crater
#

Evanesce, Seep, Flux, Deliquesce, Smelt

#

@pulsar vigil

pulsar vigil
#

Is smelt not technically melt

sand crater
#

true

#

Maybe infect?

pulsar vigil
#

I like evanesce and deliquesce

#

And possibly flux

#

Instead of seep maybe filter,

#

?

sand crater
pulsar vigil
#

I think theres a symbol for like, rot or decompose

sand crater
#

oh fucking duh how did i not think of decompose

#

in the same vein, Taint

pulsar vigil
#

I guess, Evanesce, Deliquesce, flux, filter and decompose are my last 5

#

Yeah gotta make them fit in the text area

sand crater
#

Rot will probably be easier to fit in the text

pulsar vigil
#

The symbols for all of them are proving hard

#

But i'm like halfway there so theres that

sand crater
#

vaporize can be some circles floating up and absorb can be the opposite

crude hazel
pulsar vigil
#

I could use the symbol for water for deliquesce

sand crater
#

emulsify kinda like a modified yin-yang
Flux is like a squigly line

pulsar vigil
#

Or Aquarius

sand crater
#

oh are the symbols from somthing

pulsar vigil
#

Well they're alchemical symbols yeah

sand crater
#

oh cool

#

lm look em up rq

pulsar vigil
#

But i might have to make one or two of my ownat this stage

#

Theres plenty of symbols for ingredients

#

But these are mainly processes

sand crater
#

this look like a good guide to check some?

pulsar vigil
#

Yeah ive been bouncing around a few sources

#

I cant remember off the top of my head what the cancer symbol is for

sand crater
#

these would be really good for vapor and absorb

pulsar vigil
#

Trouble is all of them will have prior meaning so its finding ones that fit

sand crater
#

ohhhh

pulsar vigil
#

The symbol i used for diffuse i think means mix or compose

#

Aerate is the symbol for air,

#

Cancer is solution, so it could work for emulsify

celest escarp
#

did someone made the baseball card in HQ ?

pulsar vigil
#

Okay i've got nearly all of them down, im missing one card to make it 16, but all except vaporize and absorb have symbols and ideas

maiden dust
#

That red/yellow/blue color palette is really cool, gives great flavor to the set of card. I haven't been following the alchemy thread for a while, they're still consummables intended to be used during rounds ?

pulsar vigil
#

Yeah

#

Thank Evkem for the colour scheme, she made the Distill card, i just decided to go the distance and make a whole set

#

I'll probably come up with my own effects for em all

maiden dust
#

I'm also learning a bit of lua, my main coding experience is creating algorithms in R. It doesn't sound too hard but the scary part is understanding how a complex program works.

pulsar vigil
#

Yeah im a bit nervous about learning it tooive

#

Ive not started, and i have little coding experience

#

its too much

pulsar vigil
#

i will nat

hushed moss
#

nooooooooooooo

#

please

#

for my health

pulsar vigil
#

im trying to decide if i give evanesce a symbol or not

regal creek
pulsar vigil
#

huh

hushed moss
regal creek
#

yes

hushed moss
#

no way

pulsar vigil
#

??

hushed moss
#

its evanesce

burnt ginkgo
#

lmao

pulsar vigil
#

evabescence

hushed moss
#

do you come up with them

pulsar vigil
#

Uhh, i came up with Absorb and Vaporize cuz i couldn't find ones for those

#

but the rest are alchemy symbols

#

ah yes, my favorite alchemy process, layer 6

#

I guess i could use Luna for Evanesce, the moon disappears

burnt ginkgo
#

i am not an artist. but i have used image editing tools before. i can confirm that layer 6 is when things start getting crazy

pulsar vigil
#

i'm far past layer 6

#

Fuck

#

i stuck the layers tab to the top bar and i can't unstick it

sand crater
#

rip

pulsar vigil
#

I'm not too sure about that one

crude hazel
#

the icon feels a bit lonely in the middle

sand crater
#

could be cool if the chain was behind the icon where the hooks on the icon are

#

in a way making it look like its hanging off the chains

crude hazel
#

how bout a beaker with a metal bar that's oxidizing 🤔

#

kind of liking the beaker / flask consistency used between the first four

pulsar vigil
#

Well yeah, its only inconsistent cuz i've only done 5 :P

#

they're not all gonna have glassware

crude hazel
#

that makes sense

#

or else they'll be named the glassware series

#

i guess my feedback for this will be to make the symbol not so isolated, as it looks like it's floating there (unlike the others)

pulsar vigil
#

Fair enough

#

Though its easy to make them look not isolated in the other ones, as they're just bottled

#

but it'd be tough to make them all bottled

#

I'm just putting the symbols in the middle i guess

#

also not sure about this one lmao

crude hazel
#

a mortar and perstle pestle i assume?

#

*pester pestle

pulsar vigil
#

indeed

#

pestle

crude hazel
#

oh yea pestle

#

forgot my terminology lmao

#

based on the art of emulsify, maybe make the oxidize art a platform or scale thing that supports a rusting chain / metal bar

pulsar vigil
#

More glassware

crude hazel
#

cool

pulsar vigil
#

Decanter :P

hushed moss
#

PLEASE STOP

#

ITS TOO GOOD TO HANDLE

#

AHHHHH

sand crater
#

yeah similar

#

does look good tho

pulsar vigil
#

Slowly fillin em in

maiden dust
#

Man you're cooking.

pulsar vigil
hushed moss
#

wowie

queen flare
#

I'm just a poker player with occasional titrations

hushed moss
#

hey gothic 👋

#

honestly this art is so good it looks official

#

is he local in disguise?

pulsar vigil
#

lmao

#

Nope fool

hushed moss
#

its all one giant coverup

pulsar vigil
#

Thats enough for today

maiden socket
#

Very cool ;0
ngl I didn't think the palette would persist the whole thing lol
Might make some from elements now that you've done so many processes ;0 v cool

pulsar vigil
#

Well the palettes persist across spectral and tarot

#

It makes them recognizable as a grouped pack

#

Plus i love the palette, it provides a suprising amount of freedom

#

My only gripe about my own designs is that they maybe blend together since so far the majority are glassware

maiden socket
#

Yeh for sure
Might give it the like . Image subject base leniency of Planets tho, where the main focus is allowed to change color within an otherwise set palette

pulsar vigil
#

I guess i'll try and keep it in mind moving forward

#

I'll have to work out some more abstract designs for evanesce and rot and such

maiden socket
#

They are a little samey but I do like them, aerate and filter esp are very cool
Could try different liquid colors ? Idk ;0
I wanna get my paws dirty sprinting some more soon but been working a lot on comms xwx

pulsar vigil
#

So that'll probably thicken the style out

#

If i wasn't working i'd probably be more done haha

maiden socket
#

Rot could probably be represented with a wilting plant

pulsar vigil
#

Yeah maybe

#

I was considering using a rotting suit sigil or something

#

I think it helps having effects planned out to do something like that

#

I think tarot cards were probably arted first and effected later, whereas spectral is vice versa

maiden socket
#

ooo yeah
I was def trying to come up with effects n arting what came to mind

#

Distill would be - When 3 cards of the same rank are played, destroy 2 and enhance 1.

pulsar vigil
#

My effects have been more temporary and powerful lmao

#

I was thinking Oxidize to be "make all cards in your hand into temporary mult cards"

#

Which im not sure how it would play with other enhancements

#

Maybe unenhanced

#

Cuz the red in the back of the mult is like rust

maiden socket
#

I don't feel great about temporary enhancements bc like . Reversion will be weird. Too many questions marks

#

but I like stuff like "Next played face card triggers three times" or smth

pulsar vigil
#

An idea i had for filter was to sort all cards into their suits

#

From smallest to biggest

#

For the blind

#

Obv

#

Cuz its just draw manipulation

maiden socket
#

Oo yea

pulsar vigil
#

Or rot being "select a card, discard all of that suit"

#

Just removes a possibility making it easier to find stuff for temporary power

maiden socket
#

like . "During next blind, Diamonds are drawn from the deck first"

pulsar vigil
#

I had in my mind that the cards were like potions only to be used during "combat"

#

So they'd have a front loaded effect that's fleeting

#

A crazy idea i had for Evanesce was "give all cards in your hand a temporary red seal, discard your draw pile"

#

Kinda finalizes the blind, but your held cards are twice as powerful

#

Emulsify would maybe be turning your hand into wild cards or adding the effect of the smeared joker for the blind

fallen frost
#

Could anybody who has the time draw a cat Joker?

fallen frost
#

Nah, I meant like just a cat

balmy charm
#

I know Balatro is supposed to be hard but this is just unsightreadable.

limber bane
balmy charm
fallen frost
#

Could I use that?

balmy charm
#

sure

fallen frost
#

Thx

balmy charm
#

i drew it for a different joker btw

mellow granite
fickle river
#

Man, even balatro’s not sight readable!

balmy charm
#

yea i saw like 3 other jokers just like this and i thought why not add to it

balmy charm
timber meadow
#

definitely looks pretty, but what is it portraying? what are the three things at the bottom?

slate shard
#

portraying straights that wrap around the ace (QKA23) and the four balls on the bottom are four suit colors in high contrast I think

timber meadow
#

where's the ball for spades?

#

the huge one in the background?

pulsar vigil
#

Another portrayal of this idea, pretty beat

#

Neat*

vocal marsh
pulsar vigil
#

before i go any futher, do we think this maybe is a tad gory?

#

@maiden socket Thoughts?

maiden socket
#

The art is nice but yea I'm not sure it fits tonally with btro

pulsar vigil
#

yeah thats what i thought

#

oh well

#

run it back

crude hazel
#

compared to the rest of the cards, this one has blue as the main colour rather as the accent which stands out

#

also i think that rot probably could be represented by something else

#

idk what tho

balmy charm
pulsar vigil
#

Not sure about this one, its a bit of an abstract concept to put into art

rain salmon
#

I get the idea

#

Reminds me of Déjà Vu

pulsar vigil
#

did another one, getting smaller as it goes upwards

rain salmon
#

Interesting that there’s dithering on the pink but not the blue. Adds a nice texture

hushed moss
#

i like that one

#

i can feel the smoke coming out of the screen

crude hazel
#

ye

slate shard
#

although idk if that fits the vibe you're going for

hushed moss
#

maybe not food

maiden socket
#

i still vote for a wilting flower

hushed moss
#

maybe make it more focused on the rot itself

hushed moss
#

yes do that

pulsar vigil
#

Yeah i'll give the flower a shot, i had it in the back of my mind

pulsar vigil
#

pov u forgot to water ur plant

maiden socket
#

oo i like it

pulsar vigil
#

could also make it the white

#

👻

maiden socket
#

lol cute
Any effect in mind?

pulsar vigil
crude hazel
#

ooh rot looks cool

pulsar vigil
#

Filter has been banished to the nether realm

sand crater
#

rip lil bro

pulsar vigil
#

I'll redraw it

pulsar vigil
#

havent yet found a place to put blue in this

rain salmon
#

Maybe around the symbol to make it stand out more?

autumn jacinth
#

Someone should do some concepts for the astral packs/cards that was recently suggested that would be cool to see

pulsar vigil
#

or do we like the blue better

#

blue with gold chips?

forest nimbus
alpine vessel
#

Nice art as usual. Rot or melt could be that -1 rank card many people have been clamoring for.

crude hazel
#

🤯

#

why are some of the tags not shiny ☹️

pulsar vigil
#

Cuz layering stuff

crude hazel
#

makes sense

pulsar vigil
#

They'll all have them eventually

Hey @vocal marsh / @hot walrus / @outer socket / @balmy charm ! We're going to do a fan art post on the official Balatro X account today, I'd just like to make sure you're happy for us to share your pieces? You'll be credited 🙂

balmy charm
#

sure

outer socket
#

Of course!

hot walrus
#

My ""art"" is just a discord emoji 🚢 copied 1-1 onto the joker card, but sure, I don't really mind 😹

also it's more of an inside joke in this server, so Idk if it would even make sense as fan art

sand crater
#

could be used as an advertisment to join the discord in a "join the discord to find out why 🚢"

vocal marsh
#

Lmao

#

I'm fine posting it but tbh I don't remember any art I've posted in a while

maiden dust
ivory igloo
#

but starts at zilch

balmy charm
#

Im thinking of making astronomy cards, what are your thoughts about htis one?

crude hazel
#

seems like the dimensions of the card might be slightly off compared to the rest of the other consumables

balmy charm
#

oh, thanks for telling

crude hazel
#

no worries

queen flare
crude hazel
#

They are should be… 🤔

timber meadow
vapid geyser
#

What are dimensions?

burnt ginkgo
#

its width and height, the size

balmy charm
#

im pretty sure these dimensions are correct

vapid geyser
burnt ginkgo
#

i don't know

balmy charm
#

i used 63 by 90 and a gap of 1 pixel on each side

maiden dust
#

tarots are 63x93

#

that's a cool idea btw, I think the biggest challenge would be making all the cards distinct enough at first glance

crude hazel
#

from there you can see the dimensional differences

crude hazel
#

lemme check the dimensions of the image real quick

#

yea the dimensions were wrong

#

this is in the correct dimensions

#

kept the art intact, but fixed the dimensions

#

(above: 1 pixel resolution)

#

bruh forgot to use nearest neighbour one sec

#

attached: 4x upscaled

#

@balmy charm what do you use to edit these images

young laurel
#

I would assume

crude hazel
#

i see

#

i used photopea on a PHONE cuz that’s what i have atm

#

to touch up the dimensions and stuff

balmy charm
#

tide two is right

young laurel
#

yay

balmy charm
crude hazel
#

no worries

#

hope to see the entire set soon

#

I've slowly been watching these custom card packs roll out and my God are you people talented lmao

pulsar vigil
#

Deliquesce is kinda rough

#

I've got like two options, ice into water, or mushrooms decaying into liquid

pulsar vigil
#

still working on that top card

#

but

crude hazel
#

ice into water feels like melt

#

i searched up deliquesce in the dictionary, and it's something become liquid through decomposition

pulsar vigil
#

in chemistry it's also something becoming liquid by absorbing moisture from the air

crude hazel
#

from oxford dictionary i assume

pulsar vigil
#

both are in that dictionary

crude hazel
#

(dw i got my definition there as well)

pulsar vigil
#

They're kinda sorting themselves into two colour groups

#

I think convert is one of my favorites

#

I'm curious if Thunk has some form of shinemap on his cards

#

cuz those Spectral cards are shiny

crude hazel
#

probably

pulsar vigil
#

And i'd love to replicate that on the gold and glass

crude hazel
#

very cool that they are sorting into two groups (glassware main, and brown main)

#

it probably is a shader, cuz by just looking at the images, i dont see any shiny thing on them

pulsar vigil
#

Yeah i'd love to put that on there

maiden socket
pulsar vigil
#

Well i assume that they were made from gold, and since the idea for convert is lead -> gold

#

it made sense to me

crude hazel
#

Pb -> Au

pulsar vigil
#

indeeed

pulsar vigil
#

this one isnt final but i thought it was funny

hushed moss
#

whaaaaaaaaaat

#

this is too good

pulsar vigil
#

dunno if i should use all the colours

pulsar vigil
hushed moss
#

4 remain

#

i love how it looks like there will be 8 light 8 dark

pulsar vigil
#

Yes

#

The hardest 4 remain

hushed moss
#

didnt you do filter?

hushed moss
pulsar vigil
#

I did, i didn't like it

#

Lmao

#

It felt too messy

hushed moss
#

maybe the symbol in middle should be a different colour???

pulsar vigil
#

Gotta be consistant

hushed moss
#

ehh not all things have to be

#

planets

#

i feel like adding distinction could be cool????

crude hazel
#

the symbols are the disctinction tho...

I had some thoughts about a Horoscope pack but I never made a suggestion

I remember thinking Gemini should add one or two copies of a card to the deck, since Death already exists

so cryptid

pulsar vigil
#

So true

balmy charm
#

i feel like Gemini would sound better for cloning jokers but thats just ankh

pulsar vigil
#

Im using one or two starsigns in my pack

#

Cancer and aries to be exact

Might add Taurus tho cuz im thinking of adding one or two more

great idea
arrows are replacee by suits, and then, at some part of a song, one of the boss blinds that debuffs a suit appears, making one of the arrows not give points, but you still lose them if you miss the arrows

did you mean DIY by chance

Cool effect

#

It'd be pretty strong with vagabond lol

vapid geyser
#

I guess you could bump up the stats but make it once per blind. Vagabond would still be strong but it wouldn't impact other jokers as much

#

Could also be once per joker per blind

very satisfying

so that's where the abandoned deck came from
