[icy geyser]

Hell yeah

[pliant snow]

Like it goes from retriggering 2 times to 3 or 4 times

[icy geyser]

Next ones Im making are Chessboard and Checkerboard, which will turn played 2s into Queens and Kings respectively

They won't be nearly as interesting visually, I suspect

[sturdy kiln]

this is a legendary right

[rocky sorrel]

same

i love the shading on yours

[icy geyser]

Very pretty

[rocky sorrel]

really sells the metalic

[pliant snow]

What if it enhanced 2s instead?

Or made enhanced Kings and queens?

Because promotion

[rocky sorrel]

i have about 200 elo on chess.com but im almost sure that you don't promote to a king in that gmae

[icy geyser]

I feel like enough jokers already synergize hard enough with Kings and Queens tbh, just making basic ones is pretty nice (and just play enhanced 2s to get the others enhanced)

[sullen swift]

I was thinking rare, and adding -$5 at end of round
was double guessing on if the -$5 was too severe

[icy geyser]

Yeah that's what Checkerboard does instead

[rocky sorrel]

so it sinergises with itself?

[pliant snow]

True

[sturdy kiln]

the -$5 isnt too severe i think

[icy geyser]

When it's +.25X per 5 bucks you have you should need to earn those 5 dollars lmao

[frail raptor]

Oh my god

we need a reactbot joker

[nocturne cosmos]

Holy colours

[sullen swift]

Commemorative Coin - Rare
X0.25 Mult for every $5
-$5 at end of round

[sturdy kiln]

which one (poll)

[paper hound]

Is this Loss?

[graceful lava]

what no

[graceful lava]

...

[paper hound]

[leaden atlas]

I heard loss quick repost the funny-

[sturdy kiln]

i fucking hate you for making the background of the first panel four fingers

[rocky sorrel]

loss but in the ISS

[graceful lava]

omg youre right lmao

[leaden atlas]

[sturdy kiln]

FOUR FINGERS IS NOT LOSS

[icy geyser]

It's so good tho

[leaden atlas]

I mean

Don’t most hands have 5 fingers?

[sturdy kiln]

says the guy who made four fingers into loss

[icy geyser]

They lost one finger

[leaden atlas]

Exactly

This guy gets it

[graceful lava]

the loss of a finger

[graceful lava]

what is this meme even from

[paper hound]

loss named finger

[icy geyser]

Anime

[graceful lava]

well no duh

[sturdy kiln]

how the rest of the people at the poker table look at me when i play a flush house

[tired blade]

i think they’re asking which one

[sonic badge]

dont know

[icy geyser]

OOOHHHH, of course

No clue

[graceful lava]

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/is-this-a-pigeon

[hazy seal]

for me is flush five

[graceful lava]

huh, interesting

[paper hound]

When I'm playing blackjack and the dealer pulls out a 11-card 21

[icy geyser]

I don't get why the casino wouldn't +15 Mult my score when I placed a banana on the table

[graceful lava]

so the original line was comparing a butterfly to a pigeon

[sonic badge]

the 5 polychrome lottery ticket kings with a red seal

[sturdy kiln]

i cant believe the dealer didnt let me destroy two cards i had a tarot card and everything

[sonic badge]

wdym i cant get my 65 chips from my ice cream

[sturdy kiln]

no no theyre just saying you only get 60 because you miscounted

[icy geyser]

I ripped the joker in half, gimme 20 mult

[graceful lava]

mommy I want an ice cream!
I HATE PISTACHIO

[hazy seal]

me when i arrive to the poker table with a sheet of steel, two golden bars, some papyrus and a piece of glass

[sturdy kiln]

me when i set the chips on fire because i beat the blind in one hand

[icy geyser]

Me, adding my lucky cards to the deck because I ripped up a face card

[hazy seal]

me making more chips than atoms in the universe and cashing out for 5$

[graceful lava]

me when I arrive to the poker table with tarot cards, a to-do list, a baseball card and some guy's drivers license

[hazy seal]

the drivers license is also expired btw

[graceful lava]

no wait

[sonic badge]

me when we start talking about bringing random items from a video game into a casino instead of posting art in an art channel

[graceful lava]

I got a better one

[sonic badge]

i need art pls

i need my daily nutrition

[sturdy kiln]

lmao

[sturdy kiln]

im working on it im working on it

[graceful lava]

me when I arrive to the poker table with an illegally tampered voting ballot and a picture of a jester

[hazy seal]

im not an artist but i made this and im proud of it

I want to make a series of 10 jokers based of the middle ages

[graceful lava]

looks very cool

should have an ability related to jacks

plus the jacks need it

[sonic badge]

very nice

[graceful lava]

but again, just one small issue

[sonic badge]

simple fix

just make a small paint brush

[graceful lava]

or...

[hazy seal]

both ways are correct

[graceful lava]

you could opt for a feather

[hazy seal]

oh thats nie

i could make another one

ive also made the guillotine

im very proud of ir

[sonic badge]

the mouth is usually a flat color i believe

[graceful lava]

you could even do it like this and then make the feathers look like the jester hat with the colors and such

[hazy seal]

thats very good

but i guess im not that good drawing

[graceful lava]

it's not that

it looks good, it's just not correct that's all

or I mean... I should say it's not how most people would expect them to look

[sonic badge]

didnt you say you dont draw much?

[graceful lava]

yeah honestly for a first attempt this is very good

[sonic badge]

i dont think most people are supposed to be exceptional at things they do for the first time

[graceful lava]

exactly

[sonic badge]

if you think you're bad just practice

[sturdy kiln]

guys

[hazy seal]

I understand what you say, what im saying is that that type of helmet also exists

is a Gallic H

used by centurions if im not wrong

[sonic badge]

didnt know that

the more you know

im learning history by gambling

[hazy seal]

yeah i know, but art its not my main thing and i rather take time practicing programming

[sonic badge]

thats alright

it still looks good for being your first time

[hazy seal]

thanks :)

I guess the guilotine is simpler and better

[graceful lava]

so... Canio but better

[tired blade]

technically not strictly better

canio gains more per face

[graceful lava]

wdym its directly better

yeah but this feeds itself

[tired blade]

but it would be better than canio

generally

[graceful lava]

Canio does not

[tired blade]

its not directly better is what im saying

[sonic badge]

its easier

i think is the correct word

[tired blade]

directly better would be like how agate is directly better than gluttonous

[graceful lava]

doesn't easier equal better-

[sonic badge]

cool guillotine btw

[sonic badge]

no

[graceful lava]

how so

[sonic badge]

popcorn is easy mult

but i would argue the other joker mults are better

like the ones that start at zero

[graceful lava]

I guess thats a fair point

[sonic badge]

i can prob think of a better analogy

[graceful lava]

either way, I think the ability could use some reworking

to better differentiate itself from Canio

other than that the art looks amazing

[sonic badge]

if you already had an easy way of destroying and replenishing face cards then canino would be "better"

[graceful lava]

if I could just suggest one thing, you should add his hands cuffed in the guillotine

[sonic badge]

depends on the situation

but generally i would say canino is better since its not too hard to find a way to destroy face cards

[tired blade]

technically yes

but isnt a DIRECT upgrade

[graceful lava]

I just don't see why it needs that ability when Canio already has it

[tired blade]

yea

[graceful lava]

like why make a slightly less legendary legendary I guess is what I'm trying to say

[sonic badge]

i agree

[graceful lava]

I have an idea

[sonic badge]

concept is cool

[graceful lava]

what if instead this card GAVE you face cards

[sonic badge]

that would be funny and fitting

but def not worth a legendary

[tired blade]

wouldnt make sense cuz guillotines dont create people

[graceful lava]

no but they give you heads

a.k.a. faces

[rocky sorrel]

morbid!

[sonic badge]

this

[graceful lava]

gore? in my Balatro???

alert the parents!

ignore the drunkard!

and... the gambling

[tired blade]

ermmmmm face cards arent heads

[graceful lava]

...

[tired blade]

they’re full people

[graceful lava]

whats a face on

[sonic badge]

its fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine

[tired blade]

what gambling

[graceful lava]

poker

[sturdy kiln]

wheel of fortune

[graceful lava]

I know it's not REALLY gambling

[sturdy kiln]

youre from pegi arent you

[tired blade]

not gambling

[graceful lava]

but it's still poker

[craggy skiff]

currently making card skins. Is this good?

[graceful lava]

plus I'm just pretending I'm a stupif parent

[sturdy kiln]

it was clearly a joke

[graceful lava]

woah thats cool

are those... slices of cake?

[craggy skiff]

?

[graceful lava]

the kings

[sonic badge]

i cant see the purple card

[craggy skiff]

those r supposed to be tv monitors

[graceful lava]

oooh I see that now

[sonic badge]

the bloom is intense lol

[craggy skiff]

3d pixel art on something small is hard :P

[sonic badge]

i do not know how you came to that conclusion

[tired blade]

sorry i just see so many people call bakatro gambling

hard to tell whats a joke or not

[graceful lava]

maybe you could add an antenna on the TVs

[vale bronze]

1️⃣ 2️⃣ or 3️⃣ (these are supposed to be little spectral modifiers on blinds)

[sturdy kiln]

portal brainrot

[tired blade]

joke…or

jokor

[graceful lava]

that would definitely help them look more like TVs I think

[graceful lava]

WHAT

[sturdy kiln]

i like 3

[graceful lava]

"America did WHAT!?"

[sturdy kiln]

lmao

[craggy skiff]

these r all the aces btw

[graceful lava]

gives some Cyberpunk vibes

I like em

[craggy skiff]

i was thinking of making it its own enchanced card

[sturdy kiln]

the glitch on the diamond ace specifically was strong enough to affect the text

[graceful lava]

are they like glitched cards

[sonic badge]

lol

[graceful lava]

or whats the term

[craggy skiff]

i tried to give them a more tech vibe

[sturdy kiln]

have fun making all 52 cards look like that lol

[craggy skiff]

and also the glitch is gonna be on all the cards, just taking a bit

[graceful lava]

so are you gonna call them glitched cards then

[sonic badge]

just copy and paste the symbols

[surreal grove]

I can't tell the difference

[craggy skiff]

i was gonna call them "Chromatic Cards"

[sonic badge]

and only 9 number cards

[graceful lava]

alright

[sturdy kiln]

oh true

[sonic badge]

rly?

[graceful lava]

do you have a plan for what they do

[craggy skiff]

not really yet

[graceful lava]

hmm...

[surreal grove]

yes

[graceful lava]

what if they were like... "gives a random number of chips between 1 and 50"

[craggy skiff]

i was thinking, and i might make them like a harder to play with

[vale bronze]

1 is dark on the outside light on the inside, 2 is light on the outside dark on the inside, and 3 is the same as 1 but there's an extra layer of blue

[pulsar vigil]

Ah these are rad

Custom aces ftw

[graceful lava]

and then based on the rank it could be "2 and 50"
or "11 and 50"

[craggy skiff]

i was thinking, "if the card scores, the Suit or Rank of the card randomly changes"

[graceful lava]

ah ok

wouldn't be easy to synergize with but interesting

[pulsar vigil]

I'm still yet to do my broadway card skins hahaha

[craggy skiff]

it be like a challenge deck

[sonic badge]

cool

also how do you guys implement these in the game

[sturdy kiln]

thats so cool

[sonic badge]

do i need like steam modded and stuff

[pulsar vigil]

Yup

[sturdy kiln]

yes

[craggy skiff]

yee

[pulsar vigil]

Thanks, im probably gonna do the royal cards related to the symbols in the aces

Big fan of these fellas

[sonic badge]

i like the club one

birdies

[graceful lava]

so wait are these enhancements?

[pulsar vigil]

I also like the clubs

[craggy skiff]

wait u just reminded me that i was gonna retexture these too

this gonna take forever ;-;

[pulsar vigil]

No they're just card skins

[graceful lava]

ah ok

[pulsar vigil]

What do you mean?

[graceful lava]

because I thought it was gonna be something like "this card counts as a face card"

since it says monarchy

[pulsar vigil]

Monarchy is the name of my mod :p

[craggy skiff]

like with my cards, i was gonna make the enhanced cards look similar to the base card

[graceful lava]

ah gotcha

[pulsar vigil]

Oh i see. You'd only need to retexture the base of the enhanced card

[craggy skiff]

ya

[pulsar vigil]

The sprites for the suit ontop and the card under it are seperate thank god lol

[craggy skiff]

ikr

just imaging you needing to remake each enchancment for every 52 cards ;-;

[pulsar vigil]

I still need to get around to doing the face card art

Ive just been on fire with my jokers lately

[sonic badge]

is it gonna be a modpack

cuz itd be fire

[pulsar vigil]

Yep, almost onto my 5th page of jokers

[lavish carbon]

Singularity: Gain x2 Mult for each time base 9 hands have been played (Reverse of Supernova)

[pulsar vigil]

Only 1 page is functional atm but

[graceful lava]

wait you're doing a 5th?

nice

[pulsar vigil]

Lol

[sonic badge]

what happened to the vu

[lavish carbon]

Sucked in💀

[sonic badge]

lol

[lavish carbon]

also cool

[sonic badge]

what happens if they both collided

[pulsar vigil]

No idea

[lavish carbon]

Did we base ours on the same picture💀

[graceful lava]

the cards would stack on top of each other

thats it

[sonic badge]

i would think so

[pulsar vigil]

Yeah

Lmao

[sonic badge]

time to also try my take on it so i can jump in this bandwagon

[graceful lava]

I don't think a pair of infinity is gonna fly at the blackjack table

since, ya know, infinity is WAY WAY more than 21

[woeful nimbus]

Gravitational Wave (uncommon)
When hand is played, add 2 levels to a random hand and remove 1 level from a random hand

[pulsar vigil]

My spacey boys

[copper granite]

now with descriptions

[sturdy kiln]

why is there two "are"s in festes desc

[copper granite]

I am stupid 👍

[pulsar vigil]

Also these again wahoo

[rocky sorrel]

are are are are

[graceful lava]

are are are are are

[pulsar vigil]

Are are are are are are

https://tenor.com/view/fnaf-freddy-default-dance-gif-8476480527387892754

[orchid skiff]

finally, Baron 2

[tired blade]

why not just make lucretia 4x per queen

[sonic badge]

i can beatbox it

[tired blade]

well

yea

[graceful lava]

please don't

[copper granite]

lets just pretend that never happened

[graceful lava]

is there a reason as to why you gave them these abilities specifically

[copper granite]

jester relevance (Lucretia historically worked in a pair)

[tired blade]

oh

okay.

[sonic badge]

i think chip multiplier is fun

[tired blade]

it is loterally the same as xmult in this case

[pulsar vigil]

Your mum

[sonic badge]

well no

[sturdy kiln]

well yes

[sonic badge]

it would be very different

[tired blade]

fine aside from plasma

but thats it

[sturdy kiln]

incorrect

[sturdy kiln]

yes

[graceful lava]

like did you research the characters and person before giving them the abilities or are they just kinda random

[copper granite]

Yeah

lucretia was the queen's jester and worked in a jester duo, hence queen and 2X

trinculo was a fad character who was ridiculed away from his city, a character who was envious of those above him, hence discards and enhancements of other jokers

Feste was a house jester who knew alot, especially his home owner's secrets. Hence why he knows what's in your deck (kinda a stretch but then again so are some of the original ones)

[sonic badge]

even aside plasma

[tired blade]

no

not aside from plasma

i want you to tell me

what does Xmult multiply

[graceful lava]

these are pretty good

[sonic badge]

base chips and base mult are not gonna be the same

[graceful lava]

though, shouldn't a house jester maybe have something to do with full houses?

[tired blade]

so?

[sturdy kiln]

xchips and xmult are the same thing and amount to the same exact score

[copper granite]

100% considered that but couldn't figure out a good gimmick

[graceful lava]

ah ok

[lavish carbon]

Okay, here's the thing with Xmult and Xchips

[sonic badge]

if it were 4x mult per queen

[copper granite]

like I thought about it for an hour but everything felt too much in the realm for rare cards instead of legendary ones

[tired blade]

mult literally IS xchips dude

[sturdy kiln]

4x mult is the exact same as 2x mult and 2x chips if not in plasma

[tired blade]

thats like… the whole point of mult

[sonic badge]

that would be crazy scaling on the mult

[tired blade]

to multiply your chips

[sturdy kiln]

wait youre on my side

[tired blade]

jimbo explains it in the beginning

[sturdy kiln]

wait

[lavish carbon]

Let's say you have 50 chips and 50 mult, x4 chips would give you 200 chips and 50 mult, if you had x4 mult you would have 50 chips and 200 mult

which is the exact same value

[tired blade]

he says something like “hands have an amount of chips multiplied by an amount of mult”

[sturdy kiln]

ok who agrees that xmult and xchips are the same im confused

[sonic badge]

am i reading the description wrong

[sturdy kiln]

outside of plasma

[tired blade]

i agree

[copper granite]

I should preface that I also chose to do 2x chips AND mult because I did her design first and she's blue and red. thought it would be cool

[tired blade]

while they srent technically the same cuz of some weird niche cases they sre fundamentally the same

[teal island]

I mean its silly but who caares

[sonic badge]

so you said why not make it 4x mult per queen?

since its the same?

[tired blade]

it would be the same 99% of the time

aside from plasma

[lavish carbon]

Easy way to fix this while keeping the 2 is x2 mult, each queen held in hand triggers twice

[sturdy kiln]

yeah i like it

[teal island]

How is it "fixing" it

[copper granite]

also that it's emphasizing the concept of duos and including both chips and mult felt appropriate

[teal island]

Like, that implies its broken

[sonic badge]

imma do a test

[teal island]

When in reality if its just silly, its silly

[lavish carbon]

xchips is not something in base balatro, nothing wrong with the idea

[teal island]

But not necessarily in need of fixing

[teal island]

Neither is Lucretia, thats the core of modding

[sturdy kiln]

guys what are you talking about let them include their xchips

[teal island]

That you can add things that arent base

:)

Or fanart

or whatever this is

Either way, who caaaaare

[lavish carbon]

I never said they couldn't add it

[teal island]

But you implied it needed to be fixed

[sturdy kiln]

itd be simpler to just be 4x mult yeah but the theming

[copper granite]

thats why I wanted to add it in, if you think about it negative consumables weren't a concept prior to Perkeo

[tired blade]

me.

[copper granite]

I feel like the legendary status of the card prompts completely random ideas outside of the usual ball park

[tired blade]

wrong reply.

[sturdy kiln]

boss blinds werent a thing before chicot

[teal island]

I think quibbling over small details stifles creativity

[sturdy kiln]

assuming you meant to reply to "either way who caaaare" why do you care

[tired blade]

i dont

i just jest

[sturdy kiln]

oh

[lavish carbon]

I apologize, I only suggested it because I thought the reason you disagreed with the x4 mult was that it didn't keep the 2 symbolism, not the fact that it was against your plans

[teal island]

A jester, in my joker server? Inconcievable

[sonic badge]

ok ye you right if you dont consider any other factors

[copper granite]

Also I mean lets be real, 2x chips is not that groundbreaking. I considered doing "Queens trigger twice" and "2x mult" at the same time but thats written weird in a small 3 sentence desc AND the symbolism would be a little weaker

[sonic badge]

my brain dont work

[copper granite]

Plus this is a hypothetical and who doesn't love introducing new unnecessary gimmicks 👍

[teal island]

Me when I completely shatter the meta, immersion, balance, and game feel by multiplying number 1 instead of number 2

[sonic badge]

i thought for some reason there was mult also being added

[pulsar vigil]

A fool in my funny server? Preposterous

[copper granite]

Balatro will never be the same 💔

[sonic badge]

because i love shoot the moon

[tired blade]

it does make plasma better which it doesnt deserve

[rocky sorrel]

hey anyone know if aseprite has a posterization feature

[lavish carbon]

Ok now you're just taking things out of proportion, I don't think that was ever implied in this conversation

[sonic badge]

imma step away from balatro since i play too long

[sturdy kiln]

whats that mean

[teal island]

I was making a joke

I'm a little bit of a joker

[rocky sorrel]

reduce the amouynt of colors

[copper granite]

Ok so like lucretia is devil's advocate but like are the other ideas fine?

[sonic badge]

and by that i mean drawing balatro cards instead

[sturdy kiln]

ohh

sorry i dont know if it does

[copper granite]

not that I know of

[rocky sorrel]

sucks

[sonic badge]

reducing detail in a sense but for colors?

[teal island]

What are you trying to achieve, scott?

[rocky sorrel]

aseprite has 256 color limit and im trying to add shit to a gif

blatro thing

[copper granite]

someone could've made a script for it on itch.io but most colour filtering effects I've had to do manually (aside from the adjustments menu)

[teal island]

It only has a colour limit in the Indexed Colour Mode

If you want to add more stuff, you could try and changing the colour mode from Indexed to RGB

[rocky sorrel]

oh shit that worked instantly

thankyuo

[teal island]

If you load a gif into Aseprite, in my experience, it loads with Indexed colour mode by default

and you gotta swap to RGB manually

For future reference

[rocky sorrel]

how i me specifically feel me opinion subjective

god damn discord is not working for me

[copper granite]

your art is fire bro

[teal island]

i mak jokker

so far so good

[dark crescent]

joker in the top right corner like its his name on the test

this is a really cool card

you guys make such cool unconventional jokers

[rocky sorrel]

i think i only have like 2 weirdos

i gotta make more

[wintry thunder]

so 4x mult

Ah thats a site that makes my device sentient and make it want to kill every human

[sullen swift]

Really good, but you forgot the joker text I think

[teal island]

Did I forget?

What do you think is encoded in the QR

[lament fable]

Idk probably a link to a rickroll or something pretty overdone

[dark crescent]

ii like the detailing for the square colours

😮

[sullen swift]

that is probably the most clever way to add the joker text
well done

[lament fable]

Insane

[surreal grove]

what might it do?

[dark crescent]

somethign related to money effects i imagine

but i just art

gain half of your gold in chips at the start of every round, every 10 chips gained grants +1 mult

plus a downside, maybe you lose the gold

[teal island]

My total Joker collection so far

[dark crescent]

trypophobia joker?? for real

[livid elbow]

Now let's see how it looks so far!

[dark crescent]

got me dumb

[sullen swift]

Does anyone know how to add texture to paper like Brainstorm or Lucky cards?

[teal island]

I just scribble

probably not the best way to go about it

but it looks okay

[livid elbow]

SWEET MOTHER OF CHRIST WHAT IS THAT

[teal island]

Squeezy Pete

[livid elbow]

OH

OH IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS.

OH NO.

i am appalled.

[dark crescent]

bahahaha so clever

[teal island]

Betcha didnt know Panic Pete was actually a clown

you can see his ruff and buttons

[graceful lava]

What's that third one?

[teal island]

and big clown smile

[teal island]

Bad rendition of a memory card

[graceful lava]

Ah ok

I like the sad clown one

[teal island]

Pierrot

[graceful lava]

Heh, Infinite Jest. Nice

I've wanted to call a card that too

[atomic storm]

Fan made joker card doodle idea.
Lonely Fiend: when hand contains three of a kind face cards retrigger all cards in hand.

Might be better phrased as 'Contains three of a kind face cards' ?

[teal island]

That joker is Hat Trick

[graceful lava]

So I assume it has something to do with doing like... It's 2 in a row right

Or is a hat trick three

[dark crescent]

3

[teal island]

a hat trick is 3

[graceful lava]

Ah ok

[sullen swift]

Remake of Doodle

[granite fable]

Depends if they want it to synergise with Pareidolia ig

[graceful lava]

Ha I like that

[teal island]

looking good. Maybe try and break the mold on base jimbo a little, experiment

[graceful lava]

Only complaint is you should sharpen the corners

To make it square

[atomic storm]

Your right 👍

[teal island]

Pareidolias whole point is synergy, so it probably should

[graceful lava]

Or maybe give it more of a... "To-Do List" look

[teal island]

those corners are already sharper than base joker

[graceful lava]

Oh wait you're right

Hmm fair enough then

[granite fable]

Tru

[graceful lava]

Is it just me or does the joker have like a slight wave effect on its texture

Is that intentional

[livid elbow]

WHO MADE THIS HORRID HOMUNCULUS 😭

[graceful lava]

Like I genuinely can't tell if I'm actually seeing that or not

[teal island]

I love Panic Pete

He looks so fucking scary

It wraps around to being funny

[granite fable]

I see it

[graceful lava]

Hold the fuck up why is there a baby picture in there LMAO

[granite fable]

The darkish lines

[teal island]

The Ultrasound?

[graceful lava]

Would... Balatro be allowed to show that? Lmao

Idk how censorship would work with that

[teal island]

Ultrasounds arent nsfw

like, pregnancy is a normal thing

[sullen swift]

Yep, texture

[teal island]

I dont think it's out of line to reference the concept of pregnancy in the form of an ultrasound

[graceful lava]

Ok good, I'm not crazy

[graceful lava]

That's probably true

I would assume it does something like
"Every 8 rounds, blank"

Or "every 8 hands, blank"

[teal island]

It was actually inspired by my cousin showing me ultrasound images of his unborn child

[graceful lava]

Something like Loyalty Card

"This joker gains +3 mult after every 8 hands played"

(currently +0)

[teal island]

I've had people suggest that ultrasound should make flipped cards transparent, letting you see what they are

[graceful lava]

That would be a very niche ability

[teal island]

I've also had people suggest it should create a Wee Joker

[dark crescent]

hehhehe wee joker

[graceful lava]

LOL okay so...

What would be a fair amount of turns for a wee joker

[granite fable]

Idea for ability:

Ultrasound
After 9 rounds, sell this card to create a Soul card

[graceful lava]

Pfft

[dark crescent]

love that

[graceful lava]

That might be good actually

That's like genuinely interesting

Idk if 9 rounds is worth it though...

[teal island]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[granite fable]

I chose 9 because that’s how many months pregnancy typically lasts

[teal island]

It's not hugely important to me, I'm in it for the art

[graceful lava]

Then again 9 rounds would be 3 antes

Assuming you don't skip any

[surreal grove]

Ultrasound
After 9 rounds, sell this card to open a Soul pack (lets you choose from 4 legendary jokers)

[graceful lava]

lol nah

If that's gonna be the case it should be atleast 2

[teal island]

3 antes for a legendary joker seems sweet

[graceful lava]

It does

[teal island]

Since legendaries are insane

[fresh nova]

Just to ask, who is this based on?

[graceful lava]

Can I suggest something though

I propose that it should count skipped rounds

[copper granite]

Uhh I mentioned who above that

[graceful lava]

I know invisible joker doesnt do that

[teal island]

Well I'm not modding these in atm

[copper granite]

the conversation went out of control there

[graceful lava]

But this is 9 rounds

[fresh nova]

Is it the Roman?

[copper granite]

here

[graceful lava]

I think it should at the bare minimum count skipped rounds as ticking down the counter

[copper granite]

"Lucretia the Tumbler" to be more specific

[fresh nova]

Oh, Nevermind. I was sweating bricks for two seconds

[copper granite]

There is another lucretia indeed

[graceful lava]

Nevermind? Nirvana reference?

Anyways

[vale bronze]

TATTERED GHOST DECK:

All blinds are given a spectral-based "wisps" that make the blind harder (1 for Small/Big, 2 for Boss, either 4 regular or Black Hole/Soul for Finisher)

Beating a blind grants a buffed spectral corresponding with it's wisp(s)

Selling a buffed spectral rerolls the wisps on the next blind

[dark crescent]

:F want

[severe radish]

1/2 chance to create a soul, 1/2 to create a random rare

[copper granite]

all of the "Lucrecia the tumbler" name variants link back to the roman one sadly

[fresh nova]

Learning about that one had me like this

[severe radish]

???

[copper granite]

Truly LMAO I picked her out from a list on wikipedia, had no idea the other existed until yesterday

[granite fable]

That might be a bit frustrating?

[graceful lava]

BUTTERED TOAST DECK

[vale bronze]

thanks

[graceful lava]

Anyways that does sound interesting

[fresh nova]

Yeah, I search it. Mary I’s jester. And Mary I is someone that I will argue to this day wasn’t nearly as bad as people say she was

[graceful lava]

So wait you said this makes them harder?

[wintry thunder]

ok bethany

[vale bronze]

also drawing those spectrals on like a 9x9 canvas

is like kinda rough

[vale bronze]

holy inspiration!

okay but like is it cool

[graceful lava]

These make the boss harder right

[granite fable]

Speaking of tboi…

[golden oyster]

This so good!!

[granite fable]

Are we going to have tainted versions of each deck?

[graceful lava]

Oh wait nevermind I see

[vale bronze]

yeah they make blinds harder in exchange for getting guarunteed spectrals

[fresh nova]

Also, does anyone know a good alternative to Aesprite for iPad?

[graceful lava]

So it makes it harder but you get rewarded

Interesting

[granite fable]

With corrupted gimmicks and all that?

[graceful lava]

Do you have control in what wisp is added?

[vast musk]

They done puttin champion enemies on balatro

[vale bronze]

nah you can just reroll them by selling the spectrals

I've tried to balance them to where they can't end a run on their own

[vale bronze]

(haven't gotten around to painted :( )

[granite fable]

So beautiful!!!

How do you unlock them?

[vale bronze]

idk yet actually

as of now they're unlocked by default

But that's also because literally only one of these is implemented

[half oak]

can I just say that I fw tattered Anaglyph & Erratic’s designs alot

[vale bronze]

here's that btw in case you're wondering

[dark crescent]

space one can be related to how high you level a planet in a single run

[vast musk]

Somethin feels off about the abandoned deck one

[vale bronze]

Anything you can pinpoint?

[zealous trench]

Omg is that a Tribal Deck replacing Abandoned Deck??

[vale bronze]

I didn't have any better ideas 😭

My thought process was like "Abandoned deck = old, make it MORE old"

[surreal grove]

The Mirror Consumables [so far]

[zealous trench]

I love tribal shit so myuuuuuuuch

[neon scarab]

ghost deck kinda freaky ngl

💋

[lament fable]

You’re just insane

[vale bronze]

It's actually supposed to be an eye if you can believe that

[surreal grove]

I am willing to take suggestions for design changes

[vale bronze]

Like with it's iris splitting in half

[vale bronze]

Might be easier to see in this one

[surreal grove]

Exotic Mirror doesn't feel exotic

[sturdy kiln]

first joker ive done thats not a strict joker format

[lament fable]

You willing to hear my stupid ass idea for a possible painted

[vale bronze]

go ahead

[sturdy kiln]

yeah sure

[vale bronze]

its price better be $7

[sturdy kiln]

it is yes

actually im adding cents so i can make it 6.99 exactly

[vale bronze]

Oh that's real fun

[lament fable]

It starts off unpainted and getting jokers of a certain color fills it in and get an easier time (I should probably look at the other decks to see if that even fits in with this)

[vale bronze]

That's like really funny

[sturdy kiln]

not sure how you would implement that but thats really cool

[vale bronze]

1 hand size for every 2 unique colors in joker slots

[lament fable]

Coder’s nightmare (a trillion “if: then:” lines)

[sturdy kiln]

star man when i get a polychrome and it fills in all of the colors

[vale bronze]

holy infinite hand size !

[lament fable]

Genius!

[neon scarab]

if you get too many of one color you get debuffed

[lament fable]

(Only one extra hand size)

[vale bronze]

ALSO I'm gonna make a shader for the buffed spectrals but I also have to learn how to make shaders

But it's gonna be really cool trust

[lament fable]

I’m trusting

[surreal grove]

I like how glass, water, light, and anti-mirror look. not so sure on exotic

[snow harbor]

🫦

[vale bronze]

WHY DO PEOPLE SEE LIPS I DON'T SEE LIPS

AM I INSANE

[worthy jasper]

i see them

[lament fable]

They are Delusional from staring at cards for over 40 hours

[vale bronze]

okay do you have to try to see lips or is like "oh these are lips" when you first look at it

[worthy jasper]

the 2nd one tbh

[vale bronze]

:(

How do I make it look like an eye

[snow harbor]

i saw it immediately

make the pupil more round

[graceful lava]

I see an eyeball tbh

[sonic badge]

i saw it as lips too

[vale bronze]

Because the point is to make it an eye with it's iris splitting in half

[graceful lava]

Ah okay
Hey I got it correct

[burnt sable]

i see lips until i try to see it as an eyeball

[graceful lava]

I mean tbh

Initially I just kinda saw it as like... A generic portal

But the eyeball makes sense

[robust skiff]

Another preview for my mod, I'm planning to have this Joker switch between three different effects after each ante

(By the way, if anyone knows any good tips for pixel art shading please tell me because for me this doesn't look that good)

[robust skiff]

Shit I just realized it's a bit off-center

[graceful lava]

Is it supposed to be like an R Type thing

[robust skiff]

Yes

[keen wolf]

not the best at pixel art but I've been enjoying drawing my own Jokers

[teal island]

enjoying it is what matters

and these arent half bad

[shy yacht]

I still need to come up with an ability for him, but I've made my first Legendary joker!

https://fxbsky.app/profile/misterfennex.bsky.social/post/3lhzpoxe6ds2m

[teal island]

oh my fucking god

i was just working on a joker inspired by BTB

I love steve :)

[shy yacht]

Steve my beloved ❤️

[hardy iris]

HES PERFECT

[vale bronze]

better?

does it actually look like an eyeball and not lips 😭

[zenith crow]

These are actually really nice! Art is going to the right direction^^

[keen wolf]

thanks! I like the look of a lot of them in-game. Though I think my accidental favorite ended up being Mothman, because under most situations in Balatro's lighting, it looks pitch black except for the eyes, but under the right conditions, you can see it more clearly, and I think that adds to the theming of the card

[graceful lava]

That's cool
Only problem

It's uh... Black

[zenith crow]

Idk gives it a charm in a way

[keen wolf]

yeah!

[surreal grove]

I think the mirror consumables are more or less coming together

[teal island]

Greasepaint

[graceful lava]

No no wait

[sonic badge]

what is the reference

i feel like ive seen this before somewhere

[graceful lava]

Please I can explain

Actually could you like delete that I know it's a joke but that actually is like way too out of context

[teal island]

Greasepaint is the type of paint that clowns and jesters wear

[graceful lava]

Thank you

Anyways

[teal island]

The joker is inspired by a scene in Bigtop Burger where the clowns all wash off their greasepaint

[sonic badge]

ah

[graceful lava]

Hey guys can someone send the meme

You know the one

[sonic badge]

i must be mandela effecting rn

[surreal grove]

I do not know

[graceful lava]

The color meme

[toxic scroll]

gains X2 mult per every enchanted face card deleted

[graceful lava]

The Balatro shade of black meme with Barnacle Boy

[teal island]

there

whoops

hit enter too early

[graceful lava]

BRUH

THATS DISCORD GREY

[teal island]

There's a screenshot somewhere of one of the old admins of the Enter the Gungeon discord saying something similar', but he was talking about mimics in the game, which are ranked by color

[surreal grove]

is this what you want? #4f6367

[graceful lava]

Yes

Now leave me the whole bottle of it and scram

gulps down pixels

[hoary star]

this one was fun

[graceful lava]

That does look cool

[hoary star]

ceremonial dagger does not look fun at all

[snow harbor]

it still looks like lips to me, but not biting lips anymore

[hoary star]

the double outline makes it super hard

[rocky sorrel]

could just

not have it

[ebon elm]

I don’t know why, but that C hurts me

[hoary star]

what C

[ebon elm]

OH

[neon scarab]

the E i assume

[ebon elm]

I forgot it’s an e

[rocky sorrel]

JOKCR

[ebon elm]

New card just dropped

Please, ignore my stupidity, lol

[graceful lava]

I did want to suggest that one but I wasn't sure if you were ready for the REALLY hard ones

If you wanted you could adjust it to have less green stuff

And just give it more of a glowing aura around it instead

[vale bronze]

literally how

[graceful lava]

Bro don't listen to em, it doesn't matter

[vale bronze]

fine

[graceful lava]

Whether it looks like lips or not it's still cool

[vale bronze]

Does the eye look wonky or anything btw

[graceful lava]

Nah not really

Also idk if this was intentional but I like how the electricity looks like the eyelashes

[vale bronze]

Like I'm looking at it and it kinda looks flat and weird but idk maybe that's because i drew it and i can't give myself a break

[graceful lava]

Maybe if it had a little more of a glowing gradient around it?

[rocky sorrel]

i can see it

[vale bronze]

that drawing still looks like an eye to me 😭

[teal island]

A yonic symbol

[rocky sorrel]

then just

[neon scarab]

the two halfs of the pupil should be more seperate imo

[rocky sorrel]

what a horrible thing to draw

[neon scarab]

like they're looking in opposite directions

[graceful lava]

What?

[vale bronze]

lmao

[rocky sorrel]

from me i mean

that sounded rude

[vale bronze]

i know what you meant because that's cursed 😭

[rocky sorrel]

yeah and when you take the red away like

you can kinda see it right

[vale bronze]

yknow what

[hoary star]

what is this bit on the dagger? is it like a leather bind or weird shading

[vale bronze]

yeah

[rocky sorrel]

just seems like knife

to break up the shape

or it could be the hand guard yeah

otherwise it would look flimsy without it i think

lazy edit

[hoary star]

I broke up the knife

[hoary star]

we just went over this

[snow harbor]

obviously its the knife's blood

[graceful lava]

Oh wait this version removed it

My bad

[rocky sorrel]

yeah

[graceful lava]

That's why I was confused

[rocky sorrel]

mandela effect

[graceful lava]

No kidding

[rocky sorrel]

but yeah i think its to make the back of the knife look less flimsy

[vale bronze]

idk

double iris > split iris?

[snow harbor]

there we go!

[graceful lava]

That doesn't look too bad

[snow harbor]

(for the record i want it known that all the art has been great)

[graceful lava]

... Idea
What if you made it like a yin yang

[snow harbor]

all iterations

[vale bronze]

idk if that would fit the theme

hmm

[graceful lava]

Yeah fair point

[hoary star]

is this a deck cover or a joker?

[vale bronze]

Deck

[hoary star]

very nice

okay I shrunk it

why it look like dora the explora in reverse

[neon scarab]

arolpxe eht arod

[hoary star]

dora what did the ydo to you

woah

[thin bloom]

THEY MADE DORA A KNIFE

NOOO

[sonic badge]

you can do both worlds

make it tear into 2 seperate irises

so like it stretches apart

[hoary star]

slight alterations

i think thats a wrap on ceremonial shiv

[sonic badge]

i couldnt use the same pixels but something of the sort

just a suggestion

[vale bronze]

that's kinda hard to do with the pixels 😭

[rocky sorrel]

honestly i keep reading the 3 rays up as fingers but thats me

[rocky sorrel]

party knife

[still lion]

https://tenor.com/view/peak-it's-peak-mid-it's-mid-shaking-head-gif-14930609437819582275

[hoary star]

im not really happy with this but I also don't think I've ever used this joker so its fine

[sonic badge]

ik ik

but

im confident in your amazing pixel skills

that you can do your own version

of stretch and tear

if you so choose that path

[rocky sorrel]

you fool you didnt make the pole go above the white border

you die now,..,. sorry,.. your fault,..,

[hoary star]

that was one purpose

I think other than thunk

[teal island]

Public Bathroom

[rocky sorrel]

the 2 geners

[teal island]

Joker and Triangle

[still lion]

where does joner go

[still lion]

Awesome art though that brickwork is great

you've got real depth and texture to it

Just, great shading overall

[hoary star]

5 I specifically love the limited color shading where are dark area on light is the same as a light area on dark

if that makes sense

[granite fable]

🚫 and 🔺

[hoary star]

what does it do

[granite fable]

I’m hope something based on Kings and Queens

[neon scarab]

coloring mistake on the middle of the sprite?

[hoary star]

oh ye

[neon scarab]

it should be grey but it's white

[rocky sorrel]

oh yeah the e

oh

[hoary star]

cause its the same color as teh background and I did the light last

[rocky sorrel]

well.the left E is missing a px lol

[hoary star]

lol

uh Loyalty card is next in the collection

has lettering but it shouldn't be too bad

[teal island]

No plan

[rocky sorrel]

so true

[teal island]

I drew this just because I thought it was funny to play on the stereotypical woman figure

Taking it literally as people whose bodies are massive triangles

Hence Jokers, and Triangle Jokers

[rocky sorrel]

aint we all 🚬

[toxic scroll]

i feel like a consumable set based on hanzi (chinese characters) would be pretty visually interesting

[vale bronze]

idk

It's very hard to do that rip effect in like a 5x5 pixel area

[teal island]

Symbols feel more like Blinds than consumables

[toxic scroll]

it could be based on wuxing too https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuxing_(Chinese_philosophy)

[toxic scroll]

true but i like how blinds have their own set of symbols

[teal island]

Blinds use the Phoenician alphabet

[toxic scroll]

THEY DO?

[teal island]

yes

[still lion]

Mhm

[toxic scroll]

oh shit

[still lion]

Except The Flint

[toxic scroll]

how did i never recognize that

[still lion]

which is made up

for some reason

I dunno

[toxic scroll]

im a linguistics nerd

[toxic scroll]

or a fake one i guess

[still lion]

Oh probably not enough letters

that makes sense

[toxic scroll]

is there any correlation between the letters and the blind names or is it just pictographic

[teal island]

Hence why I said that non-latin characters feel appropriate for blinds

[toxic scroll]

right

[teal island]

A lot of the blind names are just 1-1 what the phoenician character can represent

[wintry thunder]

ye is cool

[teal island]

Like the Needle is just a phoenician letter that can mean needle

Same with wall

[toxic scroll]

holy shit youre right

well the symbols are based on hieroglyphs which are pictograms so it makes sense but damn i had no idea

[teal island]

Well even some english letters have their origins in pictograms

[toxic scroll]

yk the latin alphabet ultimately comes from the phoenician one right

[teal island]

Yeah

Because they're all in the same language group

My point was just that it shouldnt be suprising that individual letters can have unique meanings

[toxic scroll]

oh yeah for sure

i just didnt know the blinds came from phoenician which is sick as hell

[hoary star]

Disloyalty card

[toxic scroll]

negative mult every round. fuck you

im surprised there isnt a joker design based on dark side of the moon

[rocky sorrel]

idk i dont like nirvana or whatever

I have a whole mod of jokers based off of albums!

Negative Joker - Common

+60 chips. This card becomes negative after 9 rounds.

ah.

[gaunt osprey]

lol

I AM JOKER ❌

[teal island]

"Every Joker with the word joker in its name gains +5 mult"

[half oak]

why so sad?

[shy yacht]

Why not?

[wicked token]

I wanna see what the negative of this joker looks like

[pulsar vigil]

Normal joker colours i think

[wicked token]

I still wanna see it

[pulsar vigil]

I used similar colours on my negative film joker

[teal island]

I wonder how balatros negative joker shader works

Because its not straight colour inversion

[pulsar vigil]

It's a closely guarded mystery

(i dont know)

[shy yacht]

tada

[wicked token]

Yay

[teal island]

he should have a unique appearance where he smiles while negative

[shy yacht]

ironically if I was gonna program something like that, it'd be the opposite

smiles when not negative, and when he turns negative, he frowns, because he's "become negative"

[wicked token]

What if negative jokers gave -1 card slot lol

[graceful lava]

But they already do

They... Take up a card slot

[rocky sorrel]

MORE

[tall dome]

I'mma be the funny man and say you should make an album joker based on the They Might Be Giants, Here Comes Science album.

[graceful lava]

Here Comes Jokery

Dude I loved that album

And I still listen to it

[wicked token]

They currently do +1 card slot

[graceful lava]

After 9 rounds

[tall dome]

We need a good ability for it though, based on science.

[graceful lava]

Hmm...

[tall dome]

That or at least one of the science songs they did.

[graceful lava]

^1.2

That's too much isn't it

^1.1

[tall dome]

That should be fine.

[graceful lava]

Actually no

Ok I got it

[granite fable]

Literally Cryptid

these should be five separate jokers and when you collect them all you instantly naneinf

banger design btw

most balanced joker in cryptid be like

like exodia the forbidden one

Looks like he'd be on the sign for a gambling parlor in rural middle of fuckin nowheretown

Very evocative

• Sell this joker for $3 off rerolls next shop.

Blank Card

[teal island]

Sell this card in the shop to create a copy of a random joker, card, or consumable that is available for purchase.

[thin bloom]

[graceful lava]

I like to think it'd do something like "+10 mult if played hand scores less than the last played hand"

[toxic scroll]

it was mentioned earlier but you should do an uncle sam joker
