would it be worth to make one? dont know much about the platform
It's very artist-friendly and very anti AI
Adobe got bullied off the platform
These are fucking sick holy hell
thank you dude!
sounds right up my alley!
which one do you like more?
Life's Start (Rare consumable): copies the effect of last voucher, spectral, tarot, planet, and Jard consumable
Life's End (rare consumable): level up your most played and highest leveled hand, make your most used neg consumables,
ofc man keep up the great work!!
can you combine perkeo and tribulet
Like a fan kid or like a Steven universe fusion type thing?
Dragon ball Z fusion
fan kid 😭 haven't heard of that concept in ages
LOL I come from a different community that uses it a lot
Hmm I haven’t actually watched dbz I’m gonna have to do my research on what those look like
The DBZ fusion that comes to mind is ||the one that involves wearing earrings and doing a dance from the kais||
I have no idea what that mean but that sounds right
nobody answers my question lol :(.
yeah that happens a lot when you ask a question to a group of people to nobody in particular
Opinion on my deck concept?
that's not your idea that's from scratch balatro
It's from my mod of a mod of scratch balatro
this particular deck is my creation
for anyone curious or wanting to follow my progress on socials I just went ahead and created a bsky at @/kleindesignco - insta is @/kleindesigncompany 🙂
Can you send me the link, me and my friends want to try it
hey, sorry for the ping, but i just found your website and i was wondering if you would make the case studies for this batch of posters
was a really cool read
so awesome you found it, that means a lot! yes I am definitely going to be going through and building a case study for all of them. I'm currently on the fence about building an entire site for this project in particular.
I'm pretty behind on them right now.
Marked for being somewhat suggestive ?? I guess ?? Idk just being safe. Anyways . I’m SICK OF THESE GUYS!!!!
tall x short
TRUE !
Throw rocks at twink
noooo, not the twink
I want him GONE
Peak
noooooo
Decided to make it a whole new joker (lol) only attainable after you previously had & sold Bull while having over +$100 when you first enter the shop.
I got so caught up in making this one card that I genuinely have no clue what it should even do
Definitely think it would do something the longer you own it after each Ante.
I was like “wait what I thought Imega made this” when looking at the pfp being different, then it hit me
wait this multiples your mult by 0 if you don't have at least $100
Yeah
Oh. Right.
Yes let’s kill him
I have never wanted to smug react someone harder
Still, this can utterly kill your run if you ever drop a penny below $100
I think I actually like that as a consequence
How do I follow someone's Discord account
omg hehe
I have an insta and a twt where I post my art :)
You can still survive it tbf, and I mean, its kinda hard to do that on accident besides ox which is fitting and the tooth which you are already close to 100$ that way
Yoo what's the instant graham called
I’m Omegaflowey18 on both ig and twt!
i know someone you could ask
Me when I don't get the reference

Oh yeah I’m also omega_flowey on TikTok but I don’t post there as often
TikTok more like stinky
should be (currently +0 chips and x1 mult)
You are correct
I have already fixed it in an edit
hmm... it should be an econ joker
since it's an antique
and it would also increase slowly too
wait a minute
clocks have hands
make it a time pun
maybe it should have something to do with hand size
what’s a doctors favourite time of the day? Two thirty
that's a dentist actually
While I’m personally not a fan of Jokers with more than one ability
I can’t get enough of Gros Michel-Cavendish jokers like this
Really neat
you should call it the Cash Cow
reminds me of an idea i had, so maybe use this:
grandfather paradox: jokers trigger before hand scores. rare.
since its a paradox you need to make it an unavoidable softlock
This Joker will trigger once for every chip gained, +1 chip
Retrigger self
was thinking that but its too boring
Hmm, retrigger every functions in Balatro
The grandfather paradox is killing your grandparent before your parent was conceived, right?
So what it should do is delete the game, making playing the Joker a paradox
Retrigger every retrigger /j
Woah that's cool
thank you
I bet the ability would have something to do with asking for a specific rank to be played
i havent really thought of an ability yet
Wait I have an idea
Karate Joe
Retriggers X card in played hand, card changes after each played hand (X = the card in played hand from 1 to 5, 1 being the first and 5 being the fifth card)
For example it can say that it's gonna retrigger the 3rd card in a played hand
Or the fifth card
Or the fourth or etc
i'm trying to think of something that ropes in rhythm
like a consecutive (something) ability
upgrade for every consecutive random hand played that changes every round?
peak
Updated (also here's another joker I did awhile back)
Membership Card
+1 booster pack available in the shop
Memory - Played hand must include a card with (random suit) as well as 2 other cards with the previous 2 given suits.
gaiisn xmult for the however many times you play it
im tired
That's incredibly fitting
I like it
But it's a bit complicated lol
Well maybe not too complicated
It seems like something that could be compared to say... Obelisk in terms of complexity
it's hard to not make a memory game complicated while also not making it easy
I think it’s actually impressive and commendable to make a card that could be as complicated as that
anyway one line jimbo
as opposed to 2 line jimbo and 3 line jimbo
He has really good one-liner jokes I hear
Missed opportunity to also make the joker text one line
hold on
If I could suggest you could also go for some more loops on there
For example...
Not the best example but something like this
maybe
i was trying to follow the original lineart just in one line
does anyone here have a refrence for how to write the text "Joker" in pixel art?
I'm trying to get the "k" in here, but the font in the image I'm making is to small, lol
I know I messed it up quite much but this is my idea.
Faulty blueprint: (rare)
Debuff all right jokers and retrigger all left jokers equal to the number of debuffed joker. Cards will be pinned when you play and unpinned after finishing a round
This sounds familiar
What happened to my clock bitch
God
Motherfuckin damn
I think I just found a resource for this, while it was a 3x5 font I think I can use it as refrence for how to make a 3x4 font
what a determined joker
maybe like
gives a random edition to played card if first played hand is a single heart card
some art for a mod I'm working on, what u think? It's my favorite sprite I've ever made I think
what a coincidence
WE'RE JOKER GUYS OF COURSE WE get sliced up in a paper shredder and blown from a leaf blower into a vfield of small birds
fun fact: the shading on the hat and face of sly joker and other subsequent chip hand jokers are irregular
could use more loops
+16 Mult, bought cards are replaced with a random other of that type and rarity
The amount of detail you create with such a small palette is insane. This one is so cool!
Do you have a version of the art without the joker text? I'd love to use it as a phone background if you do!
Same but without the joker
thank you so much, I appreciate it!
No worries
Nevernamed don't miss
i can conifirm

Saucy Jacky
its a bad day for jokes
groundskeeper willie?
who?
That is a lot of blinds i made wowzers
The roulette, the parallel, the stand, the brackets, the braces and the Ackerman
I've made them just this minute
To let u know the roulette and Ackerman are the only ones that have abilities, the others are still pending
In my head
Because I just made them
blind score is set to the number when n is plugged into ackerman function
(n is number of hands played this blind)
No uhh
It debuffs aces and 2 random number ranks
But that's interesting
Me suena el nombre pero no me acuerdo de que...
Ah the italians gave him that name
Latin lenguages overlap once again
A deck where all bosses are verdant leaf would be criminal
if you score more than 3 hands you fucking die
I think Squirrel deck woukd be a good name for it :))))
:D
this honestly would be a benefit half of the time
exactly ^^
While statement (rare)
This joker gives x1.25mult for each time joker to the right triggers
who is the right joker
Joker to the right...I mean
You are sent on an ancient quest to find the right joker
Haha
Diamond Jester (Common): Earn $1 for every card scored
thread: https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1356827449790300170
i fear i hath cooked i really like this one
netherite joker when
golden ticket will be netherite ticket
Ticket to Goddamn Hell
peak
Me when I get the complimentary vacation package and it contains a ticket straight to hell
To redeem it takes just The one Click
Now you couldnt be save with piglins anymore
Must be a part of the X-Men
I really like this design, has an icy crystal look to it, and the end bits being diamonds is a nice touch
should i add or remove the lil lines (the inspiration is the third card)
i think remove
thx doctor house
bower
Yeah I think removing the lines makes it look a lot nicer to look at
ancient quest? like ancient joker?
Plus the lines can be safely reserved for the shading of the house
i'd reccomend drawing at the same pixel ratio as the background
This already exists
It’s called greedy
Can't wait
shh
im making prototype... you wouldnt want me to mess it up...
😳
work in progress
Which is sexier, Jack Black as Bowser or Jack Black as Steve?
Imagine if that was negative wine in the glass
neither
just bowser
Oh cool
Ahhhhh that makes sense
Never seen a Joker at an angle before, so hey
but perfection is the enemy of good
Exactly
Besides, I've never seen a joker with a tilted head before, so that's unique
Well
diamond jester, full set!
How about perfect… goodness?
"Perfectly Good"
🤷♂️
i can be unique too
What happened to ya boi
I don’t even know what ability you could make up for this
Like, what even is this supposed to be
+1000 Mult
it rotates your screen by 90 degrees permanantly
If you lose with this Joker in your possession, John Balatro will come break your neck

the only way to remove it is by getting another 3 of these so it makes up a full 360
I’d be down for that if it’s the hot live action version
Me when reality isn’t real
when your boyfriend is so tall and also doesn’t know what hand holding is
Reality is an illusion, the universe is a hologram, buy gold, bye

I know it would be fitter for enhance table but nah
Joking table (Rare)
When a joker is created by judgment, gives it a random edition and destroy the leftmost and the rightmost joker

Is this a joker or a tarot card
Tarot
The problem with cooking this much fire 🔥 🔥 🔥 is that it makes it very hard to make stats/abilities when there's so many to take account of lol
@vale bronze is going to have a field day and/or a nightmare lol
It seems like something that would be the spectral card for tarot cards if soul didn't already exist
It is
Huh?
It's from the Paul Christian deck
Balatro vanilla uses the Rider-Waite deck, the most famous one
But that's not the only tarot deck
The Paul Christian Deck is another deck which focuses more heavily on egyptian symbols and ideas
Yep
Ooh it'd be awesome if they were their own thing!
They're just Tarot cards, but they're an avenue to expand Tarot Cards without just making shit up
Which I prefer
(Enhances 3 selected cards to Waxed)
(Waxed: X1.1 Mult + prevents Copper Grate cards from oxidising)
i like to lean into the mystic aspect, by using cards with precedent
Awesome :D
Is waxed a sticker or a seal?
Are waxed cards a thing?
Adds Waxed to 3 selected cards in hand
In my modpack, yeah :>
I meant like is it an actual thing that cards do irl lol
I don't really mess with card collecting that much so I wouldn't know
Ah okay I gotcha
Oh idea for a deck, though?
Hexagon Deck: Start with half of your cards with Waxed edition, at random
(btw, playing 5 Waxed cards with no retriggers is effectively X1.6)
Me personally I sometimes bolt straight for monsters
Whether its internet trends, classic hollywood or whatever the hell
Hence the Dweller Joker, Virtual Joker, and the latest Headless Horseman Joker I made which uses a Napoleon painting as a reference (lol)
Unfinished Joker
Uncom
+1
all errors are intented

hey, I'm mentioned, nice!
lol
Whatsisname
Whats This Joker?
It’s Jimbo
fuck how did i mess up relative pronouns
more wynncraft jokers :3
AAAAA I LOVE IIIIIT
did someone say SCRATCH?????? (im such a nerd at this point)
Oh no! Our Jimbo! It's Broken!
Uncommon
Creates a random Spectral Card when a glass card breaks.
This should be in Cryptid lol
I see
Fragile joker
Okay that's actually really cool
Idk if it would really be that good of a joker but it's interesting
It would definitely have you playing weird and getting random planets to sap them
flush five, its time to shine
i need a effect for this love live laugth joker
:D
i like my jokers drippy brah
hey btw how do you make a gif of a cad
The paint I don't mind watching drying
planet sapping is the idea yeah
hm? what do you mean?
I may be going to hell after that
hes got the drip tho
i really like this idea
thanks lol
Tinted Rock for Balatro players
joker that helps you get legendaries
Mathe with the big nose (Sniffer)
Flame with the big eyes/mouth (Dweller)
Who's next? lol

when are we getting a hero joker
when I'm done making the epoch tstack one 
gives 3 jolly jokers when blind is selected /j
that art is fiire though
Joker Name: Damirlan Corruptionist Rarity: Rare Cost: 5$ Effect: If there are 2 e-con jokers, destroys them, replaces them and copies their functions. The folllowing e-con jokers will fit in Damirlan's functions.
Me:
Sees it shaking, but the only pack is celestial pack and standard pack 😭
Why is jimbo so 👃
that's still a black hole which is always a take
Not always
in the case of constellation
And I mean, you could just get the planet you wanted anyways
tempting me to make a joke about my ocs
Nosey joker
he can sniff your fear
black hole doesn't trigger constellation?
oh right it's a spectral, not a planet
Yep
me with a flush house build'
bro with a flush house build
i have like one or two ocs that'd probably just look like that from the front, but slightly less cursed
Pig clown OCs go
fair point, forgot it was a spectral card
still I'd take it 9 times out of 10
Yeah same… but still wish for how rare it is that it was atleast cooler and unique like Soul
yeah it's a bit basic in that regard
"level up one hand by five levels and place the cards required to play it into your deck" or something
that'd be fun
Could pair well with Satellite too
true
Remembered that i still need to make some more blinds for my mod, and decided to take some inspiration from these
Heres The Parens (Parentheses), The Gate (Product), The Point (Bullet Point) and The Gap (Close up)
ai?
A human wouldn't draw like this
naw its cool but i think server has a policy against ai art
you shouldve said it was ai
imo
i guess so
what software did you use
i havent kept up with the tech
interesting
stop posting AI slop
ai isnt allowed in here
apologies all.
not the ai pfp too 😭
you getting cooked gng🥀
I think if you're genuinely passionate about the game and you want to show your love for it you should learn how to sprite yourself
But if you're just trying to get engagement or show off AI slop I don't think there's a time or place to do so here
Spriting is genuinely a lot of fun and it's something I've been doing for years now because it's a fun thing and it lets me make fanworks for things I love in a format that's a lot less stressful than full-blown illustration
ah, i've done spriting plenty before, but it's not appropriate for what i was generating. 🙂 I wasn't making up new card ideas.
I don't think generating is appropriate at all
You're welcome to that opinion!
If you want to show love for the original game you can do so by creating original works
There's no love or passion in generating a crappy image from a prompt
i mean, i 100% disagree with your opinion -- there's a vast difference to someone spending 3 seconds writing a few words, generating something and then spitting it out, vs spending a few hours crafting an exacting prompt, refining based on feedback/results and then tweaking afterward in traditional tools. The concept of ai slop is the extreme low effort variations... but so many people seem to think that everything output from these tools fits into that description, and it frankly doesn't.
I mean you're blocked
from what?
You're demeriting work actual people put into their art and as such I think you're not worth either my time of day or anyone else's
What you do is pathetic and doesn't even come close to rivalling works by some people here
You equating writing a prompt to drawing with all the fun and enjoyment and passion that you can express on a canvas is frankly disgusting
is it ok that GPT generates code? writing?
I have never used any form of crapware
I write my own code, make my own art and design my own ideas
The same goes for so many other people
If you have to supplement your art and programming with AI, I feel sorry for you, really
You're depriving yourself from the ability to fail and improve by holding onto an artificial crutch
And because of that you're blocked and I'm not pursuing any further discussion with you
And I will be reporting and inspecting any kind of art you post here on sight
Because it's clear to me you have no passion or love or respect for artists
If you think what you're doing with a prompt is even of equivalent value
you're very quick to make judgment. i suppose you must have felt the same if you were in Warhol's circle
hang on? if i draw symmetrical colorful lines on a canvas, am i offending the Realists or the Impressionists of the past?
nope this isnt quick judgement
generative AI has stolen from artists and bypassed copyright for ages
not to mention its fucking aweful for the environment
or perhaps if i flick color at a canvas, a la Pollock... i must not be worth it
deity help me if i was Jeff Koons....
Anyways chat look at this cool and awesome Joker for my mod, it's a reference to Homestuck
Very cool.
Awesome card you made yourself!
I sure did
I can even post the reference I used
I added that little WinXP bar as my own artistic touch because I love WinXP
Kinda fits as well
Yeah I'm very well familiar with the whole vibe haha
I also made this card
And I'm really happy with it because I actually made a 3D model for it
Based on this sprite
I really like making Jokers with mixed media
This is an older example but here's a full on animated joker with a rotating skull
The sprite kindve reminds me of something akin to something out of Banjo & Kazooie.
Also fun fact about this goober
This is the reference picture I used
Detective!

thanks!!
I think art is only beautiful when someone puts their soul and mind into it
The actual rendering quality doesn't matter
even the most armaturish sprites ive seen are more respectable than ai turbo slop
True as hell man
Art is like a little window into someone's world
The best artists are ones who give you that window into their world and you can look through it and see what they see
Like, even if the best art you can do is a crappy stick figure, what matters is the passion put into it
Yeah, putting it on the fast track, or putting it off does'nt help. Gotta take your time with it, gotta understand how it works.
There is a lot more, less forgiving, very annoyed stuff i could say but i will save it
Even if you just do little stickmen you can still be a successful artist, look at radxdflipnote or whatever their name was
there's a certain personal charm of amateur artwork of going "this is dogshit but it's my dogshit."
Yeah again art isn't meant to wow it's meant to be like a window into your world almost
Like, what you find funny, what you find interesting, what you like, dislike
raxdflipnote the goat
You can tell those things I think
It's literally a rule that AI content isn't allowed, I even showed them
My URL is being cringe but-
Yeah they weren't sorry that they did a bad thing they were sorry that the thing is considered bad here
Yeah and even then that dogshit lends itself to a natural progression
I can look at the few past years of my artwork and see why I do things the way I do them now
And it's a nice feeling being able to trace that lineage of my own work
Is that Caliborn from Homestuck
i know nothing about homestuck aside from the song black, and i intend on keeping it that way
I wrote that question and THEN saw your username lmfao
Ofc it's Caliborn
I have not heard of Balatrostuck but it sounds fun
don't particularly feel "annihilated" but you do you
I also made this little guy (sorry for repost I am simply showing this to Arachys)
@grave basin
no, you seem to think that the only art that is valid is the art that happens when you put brush to paper. I happen to think that's small minded. but again, you do you.
Casey!
Or Viceroy in this iteration
Casey is without the robes
bro is malding lol
Just ignore the AI bro and they'll go away
My bad... Should've put more respect on Viceroy Bubbles Von Salamander's name
Arachys do you like Vriska
Kinda
my god
Very Vriskacore joker
if misprint was god
While those were like the most recent ones I've I posted them as pointed examples of me when I'm not at my best
I've drawn some really good Jokers! I'm really proud of a lot of them! A huge part of amateur art is the small wins that sometimes surface, when you know for sure, you cooked
I like the regi one!!
objectively maybe my best Joker art to date
Oh is the JOKER text written in Braille? that's a nice touch
woah awesome!! and another Braille Joker :D
...you and I share such motion.
-# For I have put Windows XP into Balatro.
It's also a bit funny because yknow, there's no bumps so technically this would be unreadable in a regular Braille application 
yup, the Joker text is written in braille, and the effect is X5 Mult after 6 rounds
if the first one is a reference to what i think it is youre so peak
:33333
can you elaborate
An I Spy joker I made. Don’t know the effect but someone else can come up with that lol.
ÜN ÜN ÜN ÜN ÜN
lmaoo
I also made this Joker like 2 days ago and lemme show you the reference collage I cooked up for it
He's so slick and cool
I'm curious what the reference is that you've caught because that one's actually a card referencing one of my own original characters, the one with the broken dishes yeah?
jd vance
wrong
that's bernie sanders
i needed a guy with his fist raised up so i searched "raised fist pose" for like 15 minutes on google and i saw bernie
so i took the bernie image and i horrendously collaged it with karkat's sickle and hair
then i spent like 20 minutes carving out the shape out of this mess
If played hand contains [RANDOM CARD] in a [RANDOM HAND], then x3 mult.
-# Card and hand change each blind
when trump threw a plate with ketchup on it at the wall
worse idol
but yeah you literally have the power to draw anything from anything, and i think that's quite neat
I love homestuck
balatrostuck is like evil
balatro and sburb are kinda similar in that they both permanently ruin your life for better or for worse
lmaooo, no I am unfamiliar with that clip. the context for this card is basically "clumsy wait staff", it's called Rush Service
(1 in 3 chance to destroy each discarded card and earn $1, always destroys Glass Cards)
What does Jack do
noooooo
This might be peak
i will need to consult the massive spreadsheet
art is awesome
it so is
POLYGONDWANALAND!!!!!!!!
also for those who know
this is awesome!!!
:3
thank you im akai balatrostuck i make the balatrostuck with my team of evil creatures
there are also the aspects
The effect is amazing. I love it when tarot is used as more of a storytelling device.
Woahh, the aspects... So coo- is that piss
gent of piss, classic homestuck classpect
OH HECK YE-- oh.
Great, now I'm thinking of having the classes as tarot. bluh.
the classes are coming
to balatrostuck
im not sure when
but they are
balatrostuck is aiming to be vanilla homestuck experience
by which i mean it wants to be vanilla homestuck not vanilla balatro
what does piss do
Piss
what does the sideways m mean
summation
what does summation mean
sum(n) is equal to (1+2+...+n)
Piss, as an aspect, seems more tied to waste than the other aspects. Rot, and uselessness. This seems to have translated to the ephemerality of the associated paradox card edition, though its inevitable destruction seems more tied to doom, than wasting space.
(This is really cool!!! The edition I mean)
this has been plaguing my life for a year now
Anyway, made a bit of cards myself, but not many... I'm more of a painter, less of a pixel artist.
these bang
plus you get better at the whole spriting deal with practice
like my first ever balatrostuck joker vs my latest
you can tell i'm a lot more confident with how i do it now
than i was a year ago
Oh, yes. I gotta take some inspiration from things, though. Pixel art tends to get a lot more technical than the "f-it-we-scrawl" of paintliness.
the main thing to remember is that pixel art operates on limited color palettes
this will seem a bit limiting at first
but you can really do a lot with very few colors
one of the main things it does is it forces contrast in your work
Yeah. There are some specific colors in the painting world that are pretty much famous. Cool stuff can be done with simplicity.
my process still very much so operates on "f-it-we-scrawl" basis but instead of scrawling swaths of color i block in my shapes with pixel brushes
and i kind of carve into them as i go
and then when i layer lights and shadows i can do so the same way
this is a recent joker of mine that i am super proud of on regards to shading and forms
Also please don't take this as critique of your work I'm simply sharing my process in case it gives you something to think about
Sorta what I do with my paintings, lay a base, light and shadows, then normal layers adding more detail as I go. Which, might be difficult if I'm dealing with less than 1,000 pixels.
Yeah it's kind of a downscaled version of a painting process
Do you have Aseprite?
It is really, really cool seeing that as a joker.
I have Krita.
Krita's also alright yeah
I use Aseprite since it basically forces me to think in sprite terms
But I also use a lot of other mixed media
3D models, photos, Substance Designer for procedural textures
when the trading card:
It's a rule with an exception
Understanding the rules lets you make informed decisions when you break them
thunk uses a lot of gradients
Yeah, but there's thought behind them
and you also suggested that I use them
I also use a lot of gradients lol
I'm not saying it's thoughtless, just that it doesn't adhere to pixel art traditionally limiting its palette
I'm not saying it's a bad thing I'm saying it's a good thing to familiarize yourself with the base rules of the medium before experimenting further
We showing off Joker collections to show our evolution?
I can also see people finding it easier to follow traditional methods
I mean like I said it's not about what's easier it's about the medium in question
PIxel art has got a different set of conventions than oil painting or digital illustration
Understanding the conventions is useful
Because then you can combine your influences
aight brb
I think it's useful if you get deeper into it
If you're starting out, it can help, it can make it more difficult
YMMV
I think it's useful regardless, and pixel art has genuinely improved my art skill overall
I started by doing digital illustration
Here’s my collection of jokers, from oldest/top left to most recent/bottom right
Then I had a big phase for pixel art
oh these are nice!
We've got mythical creatures, online horror trends, video games, hollywood monsters, and whatever else I damn well please lol
(Admittedly, I am quicker on the draw at conceptualizing stuff. Better? Maybe, maybe not)
and then after that big phase for pixel art I went back to digital art and I really took the lessons I got from doing pixel art to heart
I starting thinking a lot more about general masses and shapes and how lighting is a shape as well
As I said, I do think it makes you a better artist, but people starting out don't necessarily have that goal
I'm the same, sometimes I start out with reference material while other times I start off with sketches (here's one for Transmodifly, for example)
If it's easier to finish your first pixel artwork by using a billion colors, then go for it and evaluate the result
Eheheeheh
Kafka reference
Yeah that's not my point though
My point is that it's useful, not that it's easier
You're arguing ease and intent I'm arguing usefulness
I'm not disproving your point and you're not disproving mine
Oh, I went with the classic movie Flies from '58 + '85, but yeah that's cool too :)
"piss"
I'm not trying to disprove your point because I agree with it
as I said
Heck, some of these jokers I've made even have goals tied to getting them
Then I don't see why we need to have the back and forth on this if we agree
Off the top of my head: Virtual Joker requires you to win a run using the Checkered Deck
(You can probably figure out which one is Virtual Joker :P)
Oh yeah designing the ability first and then building the art around it is a nice way to go about it
Sometimes its the other way around, like for the last 3-4 Jokers
Idk I gave a different suggestion to people starting out and we started talking to each other
When Balatrostuck was just me I mostly started with the art and then thought up the effect around the art but then it shifted to starting with the effect and concept and then me realizing the art for it
I personally do art last because art is harder and I might rework the ability partially or completely, so the flavor needs to match the ability
In the case of Balatrostuck art is last because the ability and whatnot acts more like a drawing prompt than an ability
We can always do another ability later
Even after the art is done
Because the art isn't meant to reflect the ability, it's meant to reflect the style and the thematics
So when we rework things, we rework them in such a way that themes and style is preserved
Even if the ability itself ends up a lot different
Oh yeah, on top of that--
HEY DOES ANYBODY HAVE THAT BIG IMAGE WITH ALL THE BALATRO SPRITES PIXEL SORTED INTO A COLOR PALETTE??
Lmao i had an idea for somethin like this
Its on computer il fetch it tomorrow
araki when he runs out of tarots while making part 3 of jojos
I am yet to find one with the hex codes
Oh, that's fine if there's no specific hexcodes. Color picker magic.
there is an image I've seen going around, but different parts of its color squares are different colors
That's alright. It doesn't have to be a specific shade at all, if I do need one, then I'll refer to the wiki.
there are too many
if you just want the colors from jimbo then just color pick idk
is this what you're looking for
YES THAT ONE!!!
someone made a Joker out of it
something seems off here...
"My name is Obmij, and I am evil!"
make the joker text upside down
smeared joker : )
this seems familiar
That is so dope! I wonder who made it?
I know there was another Mardi Gras -esque Joker but decided to attempt to make one myself, calling it “Jimbeaux”
WIP
new jojer what the FUVK do i call him
showing the asset wont work good but i can post the video of it ingame
does it look any different when you have pixel smoothing on
Oscillopsia? Maybe? It’s when an image appears to be moving but isn’t actually
i like this
as long as it does the same effect with pixel smoothing
this is how it looks
alr
Yeah the name works
i like oscillopsia
Fiend folio sprite
hmmm yeah
Ohhhhhhh funky
Prototype (Rare): All Jokers to the right are retriggered
thread: https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1356827449790300170
DAAMM
inb4 flood of "isnt this just bp but better"
fucking knew it
holy shit
welp, it is but still
DAAAAAAAMM
yeah lmao
ugh how do people not know what jesters are i should be world famous 🙄🙄🙄🙄
lol but no
maybe a legendary joker that retrigger all other jokers could be cool
too broken even for a legendary
the secret sauce
i took the joker sprite and selected every other pixel forming some sort of grid pattern
i then moved the selected pixels down to another space
and then i used soul_pos to overlay the second sprite over the first one, giving it the effect it has ingame
It should detrigger it too for good measure
including itself
its a cool effect, nice job
Mistborn Joker Art
Holy moly you guys
I’m making an entry for the balatro subreddit art thing
I fear I’m cooking
That gif is crazy LMFAO
AI slop in fan art channel 💔
you shouldve seen what was happening a few hours ago lmao
What did I miss?
jimbo doesnt like remeniscing on his high school days…
its you
Guys my friend drew my vtuber model as a joker I love it aaaaa
Cuteee!
I love how you can kinda still see some of the more unique jokers in here
like, there's a whole olive green stripe in the middle that's pretty much entirely made of turtle bean
it looks like its been knitted
Omg
Another joker that I just have no ideas for (based on a weird keychain I once saw)
all listed probabilities have a chance of happening
when random chance is triggered, have a chance to trigger 1/2 more times
When he was a children his father took him to a city to see marchant band ?
And make him swear that he would be the savious of the broken ? The beaten and the dammed ?
guitar solo
I hope you win Omega
And I fear your result that wind
haha thank you!!
each ace, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 has a 1 in 6 chance of giving X1.5 when scored
Crystalline Jester (Uncommon): This Jester gains x2 Mult for each scoring Glass card in played hand
thread: https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1356827449790300170
Woah seems really powerful to be an uncommon
the mod im making makes all the jokers broken
so the standard for rarities is higher
Jawbreaker
Glass cards are retriggered, self destructs when a glass card shatters
Ooohhh I see
Can't wait to see what you do with something like rocket
What lol
Sry
Like the mod adds op versions of regular Jokers and there will be at least one response saying that it seems really overpowered
No hate
Made a Baldur’s Gate inspired deck!
Bhaalist Deck: When a playing card is destroyed earn $3, when a Joker is destroyed upgrades most played poker hand by 1 level.
(Obtainable by losing a game by destroying all playing cards in your deck before completing Ante 8)
Oh
Nice
He makes you imagine blue stop signs
how am i supposed know
Lucky Stim - Common
If a luck-based check fails, it immediately re-checked.
Every heart card turns blue (Maybe it fits better with a papyrus)
Let's see what would Sans do...
Notice he’s looking left, like Brainstorm
🤷
Lol
I mean, that’s one more possibility
Idk why but I feel like Sans should have to do with stone cards
*Bone cards
maybe he retriggers aces a bunch of times or something
towards the consumables...
?
anyways yeah i have no clue, but its definitely not something that affects the cards
Each scored clubs deal you 1 damage
+1 Mult if deck has more than 26 (20 on Abandoned) cards, otherwise, score X2 Mult on each card held in hand
