pretty sure seals are made with wax

[north thorn]

yes

they stay on the cards

one of the random seals is just "no seal" btw

so there is a chance a card just doesn't get a seal

[fading rune]

ah yes
blank seal is official

[pearl saddle]

yoo really funny and pretty cute, keep it up !

[nocturne cosmos]

[pearl saddle]

oh woow ! 3D printer I'm guessing ?

[cursive needle]

looks like it, you can see the layer lines

how did you make this? i can tell theres multiple filament colors, was it a multi-head printer?

[fading rune]

i cant help but think if this was sold in ikea 💀

[vivid granite]

Yep 3D printed with only 3 colors Black, Blue, White

[pearl saddle]

Damn. I've got a 3D printer, if you're okay with sharing the files I'd love to get my hands on them !

[vivid granite]

Absolutely, I am working my way through all the Jokers. I have also printed Mr. Bones if anyone wants to see that.

[tall grotto]

Yes

[river condor]

you should've printed the eyes indented to they follow you

or like a separate print that you attach

[vivid granite]

I tried printing it with the blue raised and white lower but it just didn't look good

[river condor]

i see

[fading rune]

col uh im exi- WAIT MR BONES EXISTS??? :OOOOO

[fading rune]

Thank you

[cursive needle]

[granite geode]

i suck at patterns. which is better?

[river condor]

i like the one on the left more

[granite geode]

this card has a gun in it, for context

[fading rune]

i like the right one cause the crosshair aim
but i prefer left

[river condor]

oh if it's meant to be a crosshair, the right one

also it should be red because crosshair

[vivid granite]

Right one is more crosshair. Left one is x-men

[granite geode]

hmmmm. okay thanks!

[pearl saddle]

Hyped for Hologram and the legendaries lmao

[pearl saddle]

Sick ! Keep us posted on the future ones, I always love seeing IRL 3D renditions of 2D sprites !

dang internet, sent the second message but not the first...

[cursive needle]

I actually think that can be done by applying something like this:

Bruh why do you have Tiny and Orphan in there

[high robin]

not questioning the second to last row or goo and salmonella?

[timid yarrow]

listen the joker prompts just come from the stream of clown consciousness

today happened to be alliterative

[high robin]

so true

[solid heart]

oh cool they spell a word

[cursive needle]

im questioning "ouphe"

[worthy stream]

"ordinary noose"

The Noose (Rare)
Reduces hand size and gives xmult equal to factorial of number of played hands this blind (currently -1 hand size, 1X)

leaves just enough room to hang yourself if you're not careful I think

[ivory igloo]

demon baby
x1 mult for every sticker on your jokers

(currently x1 mult)

[slender ridge]

cool! It looks perfect.

[slender ridge]

Made a base card template for legendaries

A bit small, so I'm upscaling it

Here's the x10 upscaled version

I also made a piskel file for it in case people use that program

[molten sorrel]

hiya! first post here. not sure if anyone has caught The People's Joker, but I saw on Friday and haven't stopped thinking about it. Naturally, I had to make this:
https://twitter.com/BoobyPuppy_fake/status/1782533978374979635

booby puppy (@BoobyPuppy_fake) on X

Inside me are two brain cells: one is obsessed with @BalatroGame , the other with @thepeoplesjoker. Whenever I closed my eyes, this is all I saw, so I had to make it real.

Twitter · Apr 22, 2024, 10:16 PM

[slender ridge]

cool! But legendary jokers have to have this particular background behind them.

[molten sorrel]

i know, I took some liberties 🙂

she doesn't need the fancy stuff, she's a legendary joker for the people 😉

[slender ridge]

Cool. Although, this Joker is a little niche to be as powerful as a legendary, debuffing is actually not that common in this game. I do like the idea of a Legendary that changes Kings into Queens, but I think it needs a different buff.

Good work though! I oike the idea.

[leaden coral]

it should turn ALL cards into queens

that would be the right power level for a legendary i think

[molten sorrel]

it was more of a way to honor The People's Joker, not a real suggestion for the game 🙂

but thought this server would enjoy it too

[last stirrup]

dalmation stone next 🗣️

[slender ridge]

I do quite enjoy the reference, but I agree with Kevin that something like this would make it a pretty powerful legendary:
The People's Joker
1/2 chance to convert every played card into a Queen

[slender ridge]

still though, great job on the idea. I hope to see you make more cards soon, you have good art skills

[molten sorrel]

thanks! I agree that would've been a better power. I should've workshopped it here first 😄

[feral fiber]

Idk if I like these karin markers yet

[cursive needle]

thats awesome tho

[scarlet peak]

So good!

[slender ridge]

sick

Anyways, I'm experimenting with my Joker right now, how is this?

WIP legendary, I'm fixing the outline soon

[mystic tinsel]

cool

a bit ...crowded?

but still cool

[noble pebble]

nah I ain't even gonna

[night jungle]

orphan

nevermind

[sudden blaze]

First time tryna make something here, it ain't much, but it's honest work

Jimbo "The Joker" Johnson
Rare Joker
"Played Stone cards have a 1 in 2 chance to permanently gain 0.1x Mult when scored"

[fading rune]

his face is goofy 🤣

[sudden blaze]

I know, i tried to make it better but failed so just left him like that Lmao

Also wanted to use quotation marks but it didn't look that good

[worthy jasper]

how to E?

[mystic tinsel]

doing text for consumables?

[worthy jasper]

No, doing blinds for https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1231843350035042354

[mystic tinsel]

those just use the consumable font

[mystic tinsel]

this is what the "E" should look like

[slender ridge]

yeah the border crowds it up, that's the issue. It's supposed to be much larger and grander than the other legendaries (as they were features of the actual trickster God this joker was based on), but I worry that there is too much going on. Reduction will be my goal

[slender ridge]

You could use a trick I used when making my Joker and just exaggerate the hell out of the head and make it bigger

[sudden blaze]

Ooooo that would work ye

Can add more detail to it as well

[mystic tinsel]

seems like the arms/leaves on them, the starry pattern in the bit near the eyes, and the hat feather thingy are the worst parts, maybe try simplifying them first?

[slender ridge]

yeah I will do that first. Less branches, thinner vines, thinner plume, and less stars would do wonders. Big lips and hat can stay though because they are cool.

[mystic tinsel]

👍

[river condor]

this came to me in a dream

[green lava]

[rare pagoda]

A joke planet for "Oak of a Kind" (5 stone cards)

[tall grotto]

Should have named 5 stone card hand "Stone Henge"

[rare pagoda]

I like the pun with Ore Of A Kind

[tall grotto]

then 4ofstone

Maybe

[pearl saddle]

Been fairly inspired by the IRL stuff I've been seeing, so I want to contribute and make my own. Best thing I've got access to are HAMA beads, issue is the sprites are too big. I'm trying to downscale The Tribe to see if it'd look good and if I'd be capable to do some more, how does this looks ? Am I missing some key elements of the original sprite ? Was the energy of the card lost with the downscaling ?

oop hold on

[tall grotto]

Seems fine at first glance

[nocturne cosmos]

How much is this scaled down?

[pearl saddle]

hum 50% from a 1px/px size

[tall grotto]

35px wide compared to 69/71

[pearl saddle]

yep, plus a few px cause the outline got cut

its 36x48

thing is, I'd love to have it a bit bigger, but this is already like 1.5x a card's size, and I don't have an infinite amount of hama beads, so this'll have to do I'd say, in terms of size at least

[nocturne cosmos]

I wonder what one of the Jokers that has, well… a Joker on it, would look like downscaled

[pearl saddle]

huum...

[nocturne cosmos]

Like Jimbo

[pearl saddle]

jmb

rf-rf

[nocturne cosmos]

Actually, question, are you just downscaling these or recreating them at the lower size?

[pearl saddle]

downscaling for now, though for The Tribe I ajdusted certain elements to keep them visible, mainly the cards, text and border

not for the two previous ones though

these are just for fun

But the idea is to make sure they look like the bigger ones by downscaling the original, then keeping the main elements clear and the energy of the card similar, so I hope I did that correctly with the Tribe

[pearl saddle]

well, with a bit of tuning, we can get a d e c e n t jimbo. Although the eyes aren't the best and the outline is very strong

okay ears help a lot

it's missing jimbo's signature smug energy though

[tall grotto]

move the eyes to be horizontal and not vertical

[pearl saddle]

idk, on the original sprite the eyes mostly have the white on the top and on both sides, I feel like that's pretty important to the smug esthetic, although it's definietely not on my version so its more than worth a try for sure

[tall grotto]

No try = No way of knowing

[pearl saddle]

ooh I don't like the way he's looking at me lmao

[winged sinew]

here's the tiny jimbo i made for collectible card

[tall grotto]

Smug

[winged sinew]

autumn why did you eyes react i showed this in modding lol

well. the whole card. not the bimbo

[pearl saddle]

more than my old one for sure, yeah

hum, now that I look at it more it definitely looks very smug

[tall grotto]

You're welcome

[tall grotto]

Looks like a marketable plushie of him

[night jungle]

because i might enjoy lil jimmy

[tall grotto]

What if he was called Jumbo Jim

[final orbit]

mushroom operation...

[maiden dust]

I really like your bold use of colors

[sinful ivy]

trying to work on shading this, any feedback here?

[fading rune]

the right feels more pixelated
so i prefer left

[ornate ridge]

I think left is def better

Looks less blurry

Though at the same tome to prevent the rock from looking flat

You have to shade it as if the front is bumpy

[sinful ivy]

yeah that's what I'm struggling with

[maiden dust]

I'm not an artist but I feel like it maybe lacks texture (on the rocks and grass)
I also prefer the first one yeah, right looks blurry

[north thorn]

Balatrostuck x Codex Arcanum

[balmy charm]

try to add a bit more bumpiness (i usually do this by picking a slightly different shade and then setting the opacity very high and then just randomly painting on it)

[north thorn]

when i wake up im gonna do my own stonehenge

show y'all how its cooked

/lh

[high robin]

gonna credit you in ortalab as "balatrostuck gaming" and nothing else

[ornate ridge]

What if we had Balatro Joker compo where you’d be given a theme and you would have to make 3-5 jokers that relate to the theme in some way?

Im down to run something like that

And the community can vote

[final orbit]

are you sleepmessaging?

hypnospace outlaw be like

i did talk about joker jam earlier in modding

if there's enough interest maybe

[ornate ridge]

Should I make a signup sheet?

Would love to run it

[winged sinew]

don't need to sign up for compos, just have everyone send the submissions before a deadline

[ornate ridge]

Enhancement Concept: Sticky Card
1 in 6 chance card stays in hand when played

[rustic atlas]

nice idea

[rare pagoda]

ooh i like that

[final orbit]

cool idea, but that might be too low of a probability no?

[sour forge]

maybe

1 in 4?

it works for wheel of fortune XD

[final orbit]

yeah maybe, i could even almost see 1 in 2 but ykno, whatever you think

[final orbit]

true but wheel has like a really handy effect

[ornate ridge]

1 in 2 sounds reasonable

[final orbit]

staying in hand meanwhile, doesnt directly improve score even (but ofc could be really good)

[ornate ridge]

Or 1 in 3

[sour forge]

1 in 3 works

happy with that

yeah in retrospect 1 in 6 is too rare for something as basic as this

[pine granite]

Inverted Joker - 2s and 5s are interchangeable when scored. 6s and 9s are interchangeable when scored. (ex 2 2 5 6 9 scores as Full House)

ah

[nocturne cosmos]

Monomino

[shadow crow]

YEAH

[nocturne cosmos]

[high robin]

those aren't normal? news to me

[nocturne cosmos]

Tetr-is from tetra, or four

Pentamino, penta, five

Big difference

i see

[shadow crow]

I mean you probably won't find them in most standard tertis games

yeah

[nocturne cosmos]

Probably not as cursed as poyo poyo

just decided i'd give a follow-up on my bootleg balatro cards (No i will not sell these, these are mine, make yourself some if you want them that badly)

[sour forge]

man i really wanna do this sometime

at least for the novelty

[rustic atlas]

how did you make these? they look nice

[wise holly]

makeplayingcards.com and a lot of testing (if you want the folder of assets, i can give it to you)

[rustic atlas]

thanks for the offer man, I will check this website out

"strawberry orange"

How about
Ben and Jerry's:

[ornate ridge]

Ben and Joker's

[neon ibex]

are the cards gonna based on existing hands or are they gonna be specific groups that form a fragment of one (e.g. I piece being 4 aces, T being KQJ10)? either way really cool art. can't wait to see the rest of the pieces if you're doing pentos as well

[rain salmon]

maybe make em polychrome

nice ones tho

[vivid granite]

sorry

just not sure where to begin with remotely constructive critisisim

like, the shading, perspective, and like, color choices or smth like that are all just kinda generally bad

island shape also

my take on the stonehenge

[mystic tinsel]

9/10

grass seems too dithered, not sure how to fix tho

same with sky, tho you probably should use a gradient for it

[north thorn]

it's less noticeable from further away

[timid yarrow]

true!

[mystic tinsel]

Hee! Hee!
Hoo! Hoo!

[slender ridge]

Made an Aesprite file containing the default legendary background

Gonna try and create a better color palette so that I can have access to more colors

[tall kraken]

hell yeah! look forward to seein em

[pine granite]

Mad Scientist - If first hand of round has exactly 2 cards, destroy them then add a card to hand that has a random rank, suit, seal, edition, and enchantment from the destroyed cards

[sudden blaze]

So if my played hand was an Ace of Diamonds with Mult and Golden Seal, and my other card was a Jack of Spades with Steel, Purple Seal and Foil, it could give me an Ace of Spades with Steel, Gold Seal and Foil?

[pine granite]

I'm thinking maybe it picks the enchantment, edition, and seal at random, but it could defer to the left one instead

But generally yes

[sudden blaze]

It looks interesting, and probably giving it a set picking order is better than random so you can set it up to benefit you

[timid yarrow]

the thrilling sequel

[woeful ravine]

Hiiii! This is my first message in the server! Posting my Joker art bc they are very VERY fun to draw :))))

[nocturne cosmos]

That’s one spindly joker

[cursive needle]

yknow i met a mad scientist once.

it was understandable tho cause i broke into his lab

[woeful ravine]

I adore drawing spindly characters :))))

[nocturne cosmos]

Tassels be fun

[ivory igloo]

better effect: stone cards cannot be destroyed

this as well as referencing bedrock in minecraft works as interesting synergy with trading card (still gives money) immolate, and the card spectrals

[sudden blaze]

Ooooo yeah that sounds good, you can also add "or debuffed" so it's less niche and it also works against some bosses and stuffs

[errant pewter]

Stone cards count as all suits?

[vocal marsh]

how obvious is it that i have 0 clue what the hell im doing

[blissful wadi]

...

[vocal marsh]

yes, jimbo is animated by me

[blissful wadi]

I will never understand that game

[vocal marsh]

skill issue tbh

[tame mango]

Gf should be sitting on an ace of hearts, with a king and queen of hearts as the smaller speakers

[vocal marsh]

bruh i not animating all of that without reason 😭 (idc if its just copy paste)

the background doesn't even background

[solemn slate]

This is beautiful

[vocal marsh]

i got the background backgrounding (ignore the fact that its supposed to spin)

i kind of want to do this, but also i kind of cant make music 😭

[slender ridge]

@proud lodge Here’s the Joker I promised to make like days ago.

Spambot Joker
Stats are unknown as of now, please help suggest some!

[vocal marsh]

Crimson heart being naughty i see

[livid hazel]

¿tienes 14? activa cam? 😈

[lyric orbit]

https://fxtwitter.com/RealestPeas/status/1783260233290121503

[slender ridge]

Lmao. The joke is that instead of 18+ it’s x18 Mult, but that’s pretty good too

[slender ridge]

I love the third one especially, that looks great

[lyric orbit]

thank you!

[high robin]

"Wage war." based

[slender ridge]

I updated the Joker to make the 18 joke work better (I also came up with a very rough, wip idea)

Spambot Joker
If Mult Multipler is x18 or above after first hand, all played hearts multiply Chips by 1/18 Mult

[limber bane]

Lusty Joker v2

Maybe something like: “X18 Mult if all cards played and held in hand are Hearts”

[pale marsh]

lusty being a spambot is so funny

[slender ridge]

That’s too strong, but I used the hearts idea because that’s really interesting. Thank you for the help

[limber bane]

You’re welcome

[vocal marsh]

theres no 2 pixel white border 😭 (it will 100% look better with it)

[limber bane]

Maybe something like: “When hand played, turns 2 random cards in held hand into Hearts”

[slender ridge]

You mean like this?

[limber bane]

It looks a bit different on jokers in vanilla

[slender ridge]

Or like this?

[slender ridge]

Oh thank you! This is really helpful.

Freudian Joker
Chooses between three different outcomes per hand:
- Retriggers played Heart cards
- Retriggers played Spades cards
- x2 Chips and Mult
1/10 chance to lose all Chips and Mult

(I know that Freud was a psychologist, but I can make the Joker’s brain exposed to fit the theme)

[vocal marsh]

sounds like a lobotomy

[mellow granite]

FIRE IN THE HOLE

[blissful wadi]

me when oops all 6s

[vocal marsh]

okay so after a stupid amount of time, i have concluded that because the spritesheet is 1 single layer, i cannot easily change out the speaker (without extensive pain and effort)

[languid saddle]

uhhhh

[onyx aspen]

just found these on etsy https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/1700357414/balatro-game-hard-enamel-pins-joker?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=balatro+cards&ref=sc_gallery-1-1&frs=1&plkey=69678c7d5d53560b97f64d46d1470badb1148c5d%3A1700357414

I'd rather wait for official merch though 😄

[slender ridge]

The Clownfather

🇦 Mob Boss (Uses weakest Joker to fullest potential, but kills it eventually)
Every Boss Blind, destroys the Joker that scored the least this Ante besides itself
Retriggers the current lowest scoring Joker three times

🇧 Five Families (Sacrificing strong cards from every "family" leads to money and power)
If a played enhanced hand contains all four suits and a wild, destroys entire hand after scoring
Whenever a hand is destroyed, gains x5 Mult for one Ante and $25

Actually thinking about it that ability is way too powerful

Let me make some options

[woeful ravine]

I just got
"He cringe"
That's what I get for picking two together

[woeful ravine]

Did anyone else notice how they "fixed" Perkeo's eye here btw?

[formal elm]

You'll think Jimbo would want some Spice for his perishables?

[cursive needle]

id get one but i want his eye fucked up

[onyx aspen]

that's really interesting, why would they change it 😄

[formal elm]

Prop thought it was a mistake instead of thinking his eye is cocked

[woeful ravine]

All I can think of is "brain freeze" and a frozen Joker?

[night jungle]

so prettyyyyyyyy ugh

[languid saddle]

uhh i was thinking in the kindest words, putting life on hold

[velvet cedar]

piccolo bomb

[formal elm]

Thank you!!

[slender ridge]

really cool. What kind of spice is it? Is it like a real one or the Dune one?

[formal elm]

Yes, it's the Dune spice melange

[night jungle]

dune spice always makes me think of Spore

[winter forum]

[worthy jasper]

Mario your recking has come

[velvet cedar]

Badly drawn joker (sorry that its tiny and blurry) What it does: +4 mult 1 in 4 chance to give +8 extra mult rarity: common🔵

[worthy jasper]

for all those times you tossed us off those cliffs for a slight height advantage

[clear swan]

imagine someone drew an IOU Joker that local proposed around the 2nd demo

[nocturne cosmos]

“Cold Enter”

Cold Open (Uncommon)
Gains +50 Chips and +5 Mult when you play your most played hand if first hand played each Round is a [HAND]. Hand changes each Round. (currently +50 Chips and +5 Mult when you play a [MOST PLAYED HAND])

The hand you have to play to get the bonuses can never be your most played hand

[pulsar vigil]

still working on it but finally getting back into this damn thing

[formal elm]

Bussin

[pulsar vigil]

slkowly

[pulsar vigil]

probably will tweak it a little still but its there

[tall grotto]

Ah yes

The strategy to rival Baron Mime

Merchant, Idol, Hiker, Blueprint & Brainstorm copying Idol.

[proud lodge]

So this is a new series of Rare tier suit jokers?

[pulsar vigil]

Yep

I've done spades

just gotta sort the other two out

[nocturne cosmos]

Do they all retrigger suit under different circumstances or is it different effects

[pulsar vigil]

They'll have differing effects like the gems

i'll tweak them as i test but

[pulsar vigil]

Bloodstone, smeared, merchant combo

👀

[tall grotto]

Bloodstone
Smeared
Merchant
Rough Gem

The last one is also a synergy because it increases your money and thus merchant triggers

[pulsar vigil]

god rough gem would go to the moon with that you're right

[nocturne cosmos]

Merchant-money to retrigger diamonds
Knight-build an army of spades
club-???
heart-???

[tall grotto]

OH AND ALSO

OOPS ALL SIXES

Bloodstone
Rough Gem
Merchant
Smeared
Oops! All sixes!

[pulsar vigil]

Not sure what the other two will do yet

I was considering a cleanse effect for The Saint

like vampire, but i think it'd be clunky

drinking from the holy grail flavour

[tall grotto]

Wait

[nocturne cosmos]

For Hearts

[tall grotto]

is Saint club or heart

[pulsar vigil]

heart

peasant is club

[nocturne cosmos]

Cups=Hearts

[tall grotto]

"Remove enchantments from all non-heart cards played. For every echantment removed, give ×0.1 for every heart scored."

[nocturne cosmos]

xChips

[pulsar vigil]

nah no xchips

[nocturne cosmos]

xChips value of cards

Hiker, but deranged

[pulsar vigil]

:P

[nocturne cosmos]

How good is that set up looking like

[pulsar vigil]

Just realised the border is wrong

cuz i moved the foreground up a pixel

lmao

[tall grotto]

This WILL break naneinf

[nocturne cosmos]

Hmmmmmm, 10+ retriggers

[pulsar vigil]

and then when you get a thousand gold

just do this!

[tall grotto]

Actually

Rocket could work

[nocturne cosmos]

Put a negative somewhere ig

[pulsar vigil]

20+ retriggers!

[tall grotto]

lmfao

[pulsar vigil]

lmao

[tall grotto]

Wait

[nocturne cosmos]

Brainstorm

30+

Showman

???+

[tall grotto]

WAIT

[tall grotto]

Triboulet, All 6's, Bloodstone, Merchant, Smeared

[pulsar vigil]

red seal diamond kings

[tall grotto]

or ditch Bloodstone and go Idol, and then go Blueprint & Brainstorm

[pulsar vigil]

retrigger effects big funny

might need to cap it

[tall grotto]

WAIT NO

[tall grotto]

NOT RED SEAL

NO

GOLD SEAL

THAT

IT WILL BREAK THE GAME AND IT WILL BE GLORIOUS

[nocturne cosmos]

No

It’s a big pain to not spend all that gold

[nocturne cosmos]

ln e

[pulsar vigil]

Is it though

if you're already there

[tall grotto]

Thing is

When are you getting 100$ in real game

[nocturne cosmos]

No cap is funnier

[tall grotto]

^

[pulsar vigil]

i actually somewhat often get over a hundred

[nocturne cosmos]

Plus, $1000 for 10 retriggers seems fair

[tall grotto]

Plus a cap doesn't really make sense, since bull and bootstraps aren't affected either

[pulsar vigil]

yeah true

[tall grotto]

Ok but that still is 1

Try to double that without cracked temperance

[pulsar vigil]

i suppose playtesting will reveal if it's too busted

or too weak

[nocturne cosmos]

Reduce rate to retrigger/$50 if $100 increments are too weak

[tall grotto]

or retrigger/$125 or $150 if too stronk

but no cap

[winged sinew]

retrigger cost linear increases

100, 125, 150, etc

[pulsar vigil]

I mean, 25g for a retrigger is quite easy tho

[tall grotto]

I think he meant +25g for each subsequent one

so 100 for 1, 225 for 2, 375 for 3, etc.

[pulsar vigil]

I thought about that

Feels clunky

[tall grotto]

Yeah

...How reasonable would logs be?

Because

The Log (Uncommon, $6)
xMult equal to the log(x)10 of your current cash.

[errant pewter]

X1 Mult for each digit of your money

[subtle hull]

I just printed, cut and plastified the spectral cards and i have a little error on Photoshop making the template and for that there is like 4 cards with a gross red line, but for te rest pretty neat (sorry if bad english im spanish)

[tall grotto]

Oh nice

I can now make my own meanings for all of spectrals

[subtle hull]

Thanks

[tall grotto]

I also have meaning for Immolate: Many, oftentimes out of controll, sacrifices for a simpler and probably better life

[subtle hull]

I think the principal problem was that in Photoshop i use a A4 folio as template, maybe for the next time should i make a unscaled version of a A4 that fits with the original scale of the cards.

[subtle hull]

Good one

[tall grotto]

Familiar - You'll lose someone, yet in the unforetold future you'll see more unique people.

Incantation - You'll lose someone, but your life will become more exciting with more things to do than ever before.
Grim - You'll lose someone close to you, but you will become a master of something.

[subtle hull]

I see

[nocturne cosmos]

Soul - ?

[tall grotto]

Soul - A memory lost to sands of time returns.

Black Hole - You'll discover your hidden talents.

[nocturne cosmos]

Wraith - A new start with someone extraordinary.

[tall grotto]

Also in Spectral Reading, you choose to draw 2 or 4.

In 2, left one shows your past, right one shows your future.

In 4, the middle 2 are same as for 2. Leftmost, however, tells you the times before you were born, and rightmost tells you the impact after you die.

[subtle hull]

Ou

[subtle hull]

I didn't know that the spectral reading actually exist

[tall grotto]

I made it up

Spectral cards are Balatro exclusive, and I just gave them meanings like arcana cards

[nocturne cosmos]

And of course

There is more than one way to “lose” someone

[tall grotto]

Ectoplasm - A great benefit at a terrible price

AKA:
Ectoplasm = Monkey's Paw

[pulsar vigil]

Immolate, win the lotto, everyone dies

[tall grotto]

Immolate already has a meaning

Immolate - Many sacrifices, simpler life.

[high robin]

immolate: inheritance money is on its way (joking)

[pulsar vigil]

Didn't scroll that far aha

[tall grotto]

OH MY GOD

LMFAO

Coro you win the server

Let's get going, we can't top that comment.

[nocturne cosmos]

Deja Vu - You will have many experiences that seem similar, from which you will learn.

Trance - Looking within will grant you a deeper understanding of yourself.

Medium - By focusing on your role with someone you lost, you may find that which you gained in the end.

Talisman - You will find yourself in unfortunate circumstances that will nonetheless propel you towards your goals.

[subtle hull]

Pretty cool all your thoughts

Sometimes o ask to myself:
What was the thoughts or intentions of de dev making the spectral cards?

[nocturne cosmos]

Yes

[night jungle]

spectral cards seem to just be a catchall for Other Forms Of Mysticism, aside from The Tarot

[tall grotto]

I think they're just here for the dev to have his own thing

[woeful ravine]

Oh!

[tall grotto]

I'll say it differently

Saying sayonara

[nocturne cosmos]

Coma

[tall grotto]

What if I include fanmade spectral cards in spectral reading as an addition

[high robin]

brain buffering

[tall grotto]

Much like there's the minor arcana to the major arcana

[high robin]

would they be more similar to regular playing cards or just a continuation of the spectral theming?

[night jungle]

read my specter you coward

[tall grotto]

Continuation of spectral theming, but a 3rd addition could be playing cards

Since Tarots have 2 sets, Spectrals could have 3 sets.
As opposed to Tarots needing 3 cards for reading and Spectrals needing 2

[tall grotto]

Show your 2 or 4 cards

[night jungle]

(art by @timid yarrow not me)

[high robin]

so like spectrals, omens (2nd set of spectrals) and ??? (3rd set similar to playing cards)

[tall grotto]

Spectrals, Omens, Fates

[tall grotto]

What do they do so I can read what the omens do

[shadow crow]

but spectrals don't have dithering 🤓 😭

[high robin]

they end your run, you lose, its very sad

[night jungle]

Chance - Randomizes the suit, rank, enhancement, seal, and edition of each card in hand
Offering - Destroys half the cards in your full deck, +1 joker slot
Scry - Create up to 2 spectral cards (must have room)
Phantom - Create a negative perishable joker, but set all owned jokers to sell for $0
Mischief - Destroy a random joker, then add a random joker stamp to each remaining joker
Comedy - Add to a random joker, which gives +1 discard
Tragedy - Add to a random joker, which gives +1 hand
Whimsy - Add to a random joker, which gives +1 hand size
Entropy - Add to a random joker, which gives +$4 every round
Wonder - Add to a random joker, which gives +1 consumable slot
(there is also a stamp, which doesn't have a dedicated spectral card, which reduces blind requirements by 15%)

[tall grotto]

Chance - Your fate is uncertain and chaotic. Be prepared for everything.
Offering - Life will be flipped upside down, but you'll reach a greater peak, should you play your cards right.
Scry - You will flourish, but not without risks along the way.
Phantom - Even at the lowest bottoms you'll persevere stronger than before.
Mischief - A sacrifice awaits you to strengthen your bonds.
Comedy - You'll laugh through the end of a milestone.
Tragedy - You have yet to see your fall.
Whimsy - You have room to grow.
Entropy - Your fate will outlast other's demises.
Wonder - Fortune seems to be in your favour. Take your shot.

[stray girder]

[night jungle]

[tall grotto]

Oh hello there!

[worthy jasper]

little vote time, A or B?

[subtle hull]

Try to guess which will be the ability of this joker, this is only the background and the prototype name is Spectra Plus
Hint: try to match the meaning of the colours with the meaning of the shapes

[river condor]

bonus card spectral?

[subtle hull]

good shot

[worthy jasper]

Nice Shot!

[night jungle]

bonus cards give +10 chips for each spectral card used this run

[subtle hull]

its not what i have planned but is also pretty nice idea

[tall grotto]

Up to 2 selected cards gain +30 additional chips.

[subtle hull]

nou

my plan is: ||for each 5 bonus cards played gain one spectral card (current X)||

[tall grotto]

oh nice

[tall grotto]

Problem:
This probably outclasses Seance by a landslide

[subtle hull]

Oh

I forgot about that card

I never activate his ability in my whole life

Ok then change of plans

Nerf the card or change the ability

[grizzled nova]

All jokers outclass Seance by a landslide

Seance work against itself

[sudden blaze]

Would be cool if Seance had something like, idk, chance of giving a Soul card and getting destroyed? Probably too much but it'd be fun

[final orbit]

ive made seance work a couple of times, its not that hard

[final orbit]

i think itd be really funny if planets and spectrals were included in other games

[tall grotto]

btw

is Royal Flush only different to Straight Flush because unlock

[fading rune]

no

[tall grotto]

then what are interactions unique to Royal Flush

[fading rune]

hmmm
u got one of the very high natural hands
and thats it 😛

[final orbit]

i think ive heard it works as a different hand for purposes of the mouth and the eye

[high robin]

it is that hard ngl

playing with mods i've legit lost to not being able to draw my straight flush with 13 discards

searching for 5 specific cards in an unmodified deck is kinda insane

[uncut flicker]

Arrowed deck: Start with D6 tag and reroll surplus voucher

[last stirrup]

howlite rock. plus real thing

the little ones were kinda rushed im doing this in class :P

[subtle hull]

Me too (oh my god what a shitty face i just draw)

[last stirrup]

lol

[thin moth]

Is there a place where I can see all of the negative card art?
Not just jokers, but consumables?

[final orbit]

yeah thats why you modify the deck

[high robin]

or you could use the same amount of consumables to make your flushes better and more consistent than straight flushes?????????

any strategy works if you modify your whole deck around it, what matters is the difficulty of doing that and the payoff

like if everything lines up perfectly i could do straight flushes, or i could use 1 suit tarot and play flush houses

[last stirrup]

fixed it

[tall grotto]

Negative isn't a separate sprite, it's an effect on the card

Like foil or polychrome

[sudden blaze]

Was just throwing random stuff together and ended up with this guy

Dunno what effect to give him, something like "After x rounds, sell this to gain a Soul card" like Invis joker, or something that multiplies your Spectral card gains, idk

[thin moth]

It is an effect, but what IS that effect?
It's not a straight photonegative, cause if it was, Blue Joker would be Orange.

[tall grotto]

"Decrease sell cost by -5$ every 2 rounds. Give spectral tags equal to half the rounds this joker's been held in your hand."
Currently: 0

Aight so, what’s the inspiration for the bg?

[sacred mortar]

A small pixelart animation of one of my favorite joker 😄

[timid yarrow]

lets joe

[nocturne cosmos]

Small?

[uncut flicker]

Osmium is the densest substances, so i used a pattern of triangles pointing down. The makeshift symbol by me also look like an anchor

[crude hazel]

it looks like the grey semicircles facing up for the bg

i see the triangles, but the semicircle “holes” stand out way more

[nocturne cosmos]

Yeah, “negative” space withe the dark tone is the most eye catching

[rustic atlas]

very nice man

[uncut flicker]

also

Effect: Create a random perishable spectral card (disappears after 1 round)

[blissful wadi]

71 by 95 actually

and then 69 by 93 without border

Hatsune Joku
Played 3s and 9s increases Chips gained from Jokers and card abilities by 3 or 9 respectively

[mellow granite]

thanks i hate it (and love it)

[night jungle]

that art is awesome, but i dont get the reasoning for the effect

[slender ridge]

Hatsune Miku is associated with the number 39 because that particular number forms her name in Japanese (3 is “Mi”, 9 is “Ku”, so 39 is “Miku”)

[night jungle]

huh

never heard "mi" as 3

[slender ridge]

I made it a chip ability because her hair is blue and chips are blue

[night jungle]

teto joker that adds mult when

[slender ridge]

There’s multiple ways to say numbers in Japanese, they stretch it a bit to make the pun work.

[night jungle]

i see

[slender ridge]

That would be fun, but I’ve made enough stuff for vocaloids right now. I am going to use the eyes again though, they’re very useful for anime-ish jokers

i love how club is the only normal option

[rain salmon]

i didn't know how to mispell it so i just didn't

[night jungle]

spade but only because theres very minor strangeness in the rest
conceptually they're solid, but the fingers on heart look a bit odd, the club pillar seems weirdly flat given the dithering everywhere else, and the diamonds arent pointy :(

cluþ

[rain salmon]

oh true

i just couldn't get dithering to work on the outline

[pulsar vigil]

I still need to do my heart and club rare cards

[night jungle]

i do think that is a step in the right direction tho

[rain salmon]

honestly i didn't expect club to be winning i agree with it looking a little flat

[pulsar vigil]

I might do a vote to see which is the fav when i finish my suit jokers 🫠

[rain salmon]

if you look closely, the dithering near the club itself is all messed up

[worthy jasper]

considering people are doing suit joker art, if anyone wants to contribute to the art of these suits feel free to! https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1232902086191087769

[mystic tinsel]

i think he was referring to a rare suit joker thingy

[worthy jasper]

i can still self advertise

[mystic tinsel]

mhm

[rain salmon]

man club is dominating rn

basically 50% of the votes

Ok nvm now it is 50%

[last stirrup]

opal :))) no reference image cuz im sure u guys know what opal looks like

[mystic tinsel]

you should consider donating some of your great art to https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1232902086191087769

we need gemstone jokers

[last stirrup]

oh

you guys can use them :)

[worthy jasper]

epics

[worthy jasper]

this one fits perfectly with hourglass suit

btw @last stirrup could you post what you have in the mod post, makes it easier to find.

[last stirrup]

ok ^^

[rain salmon]

Honestly I didn’t expect that

[nocturne cosmos]

“Memetic Helium”

Pitch Shift (Uncommon)
If hand contains a 3oak or 4oak, all other played cards score and the hand type played becomes 4oak or 5oak, respectively.

Basically 3 turns to 4, and 4 to 5oak

[pulsar vigil]

dunno if i should make his robes orange or not

[nocturne cosmos]

Blue is visible

[pulsar vigil]

he is supposed to be diamond

[nocturne cosmos]

Fair enough

A bit more orange?

[nocturne cosmos]

That might be good

[pulsar vigil]

Idk i still think i like the blue more

[nocturne cosmos]

Blue was still a relatively bougie colour so yeah a merchant would definitely have some

[swift stratus]

blue lets the details/trim pop more, too

[timid yarrow]

chain of memories style jimbo

[slender ridge]

could work as a game icon, honestly

[patent crag]

reskinned a few modded jokers for fun

[nocturne cosmos]

Green stamp lets go

[patent crag]

how tf do i make this fit lol

[slender ridge]

sick!

[patent crag]

thank you :)

sorry in advance for my drawings taking up too much space lol

[slender ridge]

no problem. You should probably do what I did and post your Jokers on the Balatro subreddit or something

[patent crag]

alright, i was planning to anyway

[drowsy wagon]

First "serious" attempt, most of it is a recoloured drunkard, but I don't know how to draw pixel art so this is as far I got. I couldn't get a blunt to work so it's a literal stoner (this is the card art prototype for my joker idea Stoner)

[patent crag]

no way literal stoner

[slender ridge]

Try to format it like this or that so that they can see what it does in the same image:

[patent crag]

ah i see
well since theyre just reskins i can just screencap from the game

[slender ridge]

all jokes aside, great first attempt. Keep going at it and you will make some great art eventually

[slender ridge]

great! That sounds wonderful.

I present to you: Makeup-free joker

Look at my creation

[fading rune]

CAN WE MAKE HIM LIKE WE WANT
like customizing?

[drowsy wagon]

My joker? Or just jokers in generals?

[fading rune]

your joker

[drowsy wagon]

Sure? Do you mean like custom effects or that you want to drawn something on him?

[fading rune]

custom effects :3

[drowsy wagon]

Sure, but I can't code, so he'll never be in the game.

[nocturne cosmos]

Found a site that lets you pose one of those mannequins and it’s been great

More difficult to actually pose than if I had one irl but the convenience (portability) makes up for it

[fading rune]

well if he can have custom effects however u want (like a bunch of upgrades in the skill tree) then im fine with him not being in game

[hot walrus]

Remove enhancement of scoring card and add its effect to the joker
Just imagine how goofy stacked glass cards would be with this one 🗿

My joker gives me x32 mult but can self destruct at any point

when your in you're super gaming house, but tractor approaches!

[frail niche]

fortunately I drew a very powerful hand with which to defeat this boss

[cursive needle]

incredibly fortunate

[pale marsh]

love how this implies youve only been playing straight flushes

[frail niche]

update: it said my cool hand wasn't allowed and threw it out. I'm going back to playing normal poker

[pale marsh]

oh

[cursive needle]

wait NOO!!! u have ride the bus!

[pale marsh]

did not even read the

lmao

[frail niche]

ah crap, forgot about the bus

[cursive needle]

atleast it didnt score

though idk why u wouldnt use the two discards you have

[night jungle]

is this based on real events

[frail niche]

it is not, fortunately

have you heard of Balatrostuck™️

[frail niche]

no

[north thorn]

would you like to

[frail niche]

let you tell me about balatrostuck? yes, I think I will

[north thorn]

its a work in progress mod for the hit game Balatro™️ which adds Homestuck™️ jokers and such into the game Balatro™️

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1229122387308707930 you can find progress here

[ivory igloo]

is this one of the april fools mods
or an original animation?

[winged sinew]

latter

[ivory igloo]

It's really good

[forest nimbus]

This reminds me of Kirby 64

[forest nimbus]

What site

[tall kraken]

Scheming Joker
Uncommon
When you play a hand, search your deck for a card and put it on top.

[winged sinew]

updated sprite

The Bird (waso)
Apply a random sticker to a Joker each hand

The Ancestor (mama)
(Round * 1.5) cards in deck are drawn face down

[tall grotto]

noooo the ride the buuuusssssss

[tall grotto]

eternal on blueprint/brainstorm
Guess I'll pivot to Madness

[winged sinew]

going for a 1/3 i see

[tall grotto]

better odds than the wheel

[tall kraken]

thoughts on this?

[errant pewter]

too many screens

[frail niche]

seems like it would be one of those things that's technically good but annoying to use

[errant pewter]

it's like Scry in Slay the Spire

[frail niche]

like the swapping device in luck be a landlord

exactly

[tall kraken]

hmm

[frail niche]

just stop the game for a moment to accrue some advantage

[tall kraken]

maybe ill stick to tutor for hand, i just wanted to figure out a way to incorporate tutoring into balatro

[frail niche]

tutoring?

[tall kraken]

searching for a card

[frail niche]

perhaps something like "you draw a card matching the rank of the first card played"

[errant pewter]

e.g.

[frail niche]

play 63363, draw another 6 if one is available

[tall kraken]

that could be neat!

i like that

[errant pewter]

https://cards.scryfall.io/normal/front/a/2/a24b4cb6-cebb-428b-8654-74347a6a8d63.jpg?1701989302

is the originator

[tall kraken]

yeah

i come from magic where searching is a fairly common mechanic

and magpie is by far my fav card in inscryption

so i wanted to try and make something similar in balatro

[frail niche]

actually I have an idea of how searching could work UI-wise. there's the deck preview screen with all the suits and ranks
could have a thing where once a hand you can click on one of the cards in there to draw it

if there are multiple, a random one

[tall kraken]

when you click on the deck does it not show you every card, in which case you wouldnt need any randomness?

[frail niche]

oh true true

yeah that works even better

[tall kraken]

searching for a card with the same rank and suit on some trigger could be interesting as a rare joker

[frail niche]

so yeah I guess your original idea works well, just instead of 'when you play a hand', it would be 'once per hand'

[tall kraken]

👍

[frail niche]

fun if the trigger is a flush five but that seems iffy balance-wise

[tall kraken]

does the game track most played card? maybe something involving that could be neat

[frail niche]

it's probably not too hard to track if it doesn't

already tracks if a card was played that ante and if I'm making the game I'm storing that as an integer rather than a boolean

[tall kraken]

true, searching would already be a new mechanic though so i dont wanna have one card demand multiple new things

[frail niche]

now you got me thinking of something like obelisk. scaling as long as you don't play your most played card

[tall kraken]

ooh

[frail niche]

it would need to be highlighted in the hand though that's important I would think

[tall kraken]

for sure

hmm

If first discard of round is a pair of the same suit, put up to three cards of that rank and suit into your hand.

[frail niche]

discard two to get three hmm

[tall kraken]

a lot of hoops to jump through to get the upside, you need at least 2 of the exact card in your hand, and at least 3 left in deck

[frail niche]

doesn't seem like that much upside. +1 of the same card in hand

[nocturne cosmos]

Smth along the lines of JustSketchMe should get you there

[final orbit]

whats it do?

[drowsy wagon]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1233122847086612581

[final orbit]

oh thank you

[drowsy wagon]

Thoughts?

[final orbit]

seems cool

the chance could maybe be changed

oh also! it could be cool if the sprite had a lot of green (weed and also the balatro colour for chance)

[drowsy wagon]

The original drunkard had green and red, and while it is a reskin I don't want to completely copy drunkard, but it's a cool idea. If I ever work more on the concept, that could be changed.

[final orbit]

thats a decent point

what if the green was like where red is on drunkard and then the sashes could be blue or yellow?

[drowsy wagon]

Maybe. What do you think the chance should be changed to?

[drowsy wagon]

I feel like 1/2 chance would be kinda bad and not worth a joker slot.

[vivid granite]

Another two done and ThrowBack Joker will be printed soon just waiting on a color

[gaunt inlet]

Wow,Nice work!
Mime is my favorite Joker; I really want it...

[vivid granite]

I can share the model if you would like to print it yourself

[gaunt inlet]

Thank you!!
I'll start by buying a 3D printer. lol

[maiden socket]

Your local library may have one! They charge by the material

[outer socket]

Oh these are sick! That Sock n Buskin one looks dope too

[vivid granite]

Thanks. I'm a big fan of how sock n buskin and blue print came out

[final orbit]

wouldnt that approximately x1.5 your number of discards?

thats easily better than a drunkard (with the small downside that its unpredictable)

ey i randomly chose Alleviate Pelt too lmao

i got cursed mustard lmao

[tall grotto]

PFFT

[tall grotto]

You got fermented jarate

[vale dust]

lmao

[tall grotto]

actually

Jarate (Rare, 8$)
Disables all jokers to it's left. Gain +1x mult for every joker disabled.
(Currently: 1x)

[vale dust]

"is this... MON DIEU"

[forest nimbus]

It’s a better Stencil

[tall grotto]

isn't Stencil an uncommon or am I dumb

...also I don't think it really is unless you have redundant negaives to disable

like negative shortcut and four fingers for 5oak build or the family for straights

[forest nimbus]

You can move it to the left when you want Jokers to apply

Then move back to gain xMult

[vale dust]

true

[forest nimbus]

With Stencil you can’t because you can own the other Jokers

[vale dust]

for stuff that triggers at the end of the shop or beginning of blind

it would make brainstorm not that useful though

[tall grotto]

huh

[tall grotto]

OR blueprint

Kinda

[vale dust]

eh

not like you'd want to blueprint it

[tall grotto]

Still, making it rare probably makes it worth being better than stencil, if stencil is uncommon

[last stirrup]
