aww man
you dont look at this and think
"yes this will give a shit ton of mult/chips"
bamboo
hi bountiful
竹
should i add canichatandobserve cross mod
sob
can you make it so that you can buy emerald with ¥
sure
cic and her sad little singular stalk of bamboo
True
per haps ...
Maybe make all exodia pieces instead give +1 joker slots
Pikachu :
Pokémon Rarity :
All Pokémon give Times 151 Multi.
Flavor :
Pikachu use thunderbolt
😭
Stuntman is weeping
Yeah because eletric rat took his job
U made stuntman join team rocket
True
oh damn I think I've accidentally come across whatever it is that causes the recent cryptid crashes that don't produce a crash log
Gonna add Stuntman Rocket
🔥 🔥 🔥
Stuntman Rocket :
Pokémon Rarity :
Gives 250 dollars at the end of each round per Pikachu you own. -2 Hand size.
Flavor :
We're blasting off again
😭
I combined stuntman with rocket and made him want Pikachu
aaand it's not being reproduced all of a sudden after reinstalling cryptid. ugh
too ass...
ice are you training to become the new lead cryptid dev
This is hilariously OP and I love it so much
if i were the lead cryptid dev i would
the lack of pepsi in cryptid is truly saddening
True should make it 1024 like the number there are now
they're multiplying
no I'm trying to make Kino crossmod content for it and it's just creating a whole lot of strange bugs
{151}1025 Mult and Chips
aikoyori
apparently there are edge cases in which cryptid starts checking cardareas an insane amount
I'm trying to make the most broken mod of all
aikoyori
:c
So obv even my most tame jokers are gonna be hilarious op
iroyokia
which I thought was my fault, but it turns out it isn't, haha. But now I wanna know if I can see what's happening and why, but it's not actually happening again after reinstalling it
What's so fun about these big numbers other than number go big
how do i make sure all my gemstone be there?
number go big
Because big numbers look pretty
tell me that 9#1.0e21 looks pretty
i think it's stupid
oh i see finnaly someone agreeing with me that too much OP stuff in balatro is less of a fun 😭
it's ass
What about
+90mult
×1.5mult if retriggered, 20% chance to trigger this on the retrigger joker
oh poor baby🥺🥺do you need the robot to make you pictures?🥺🥺yeah?🥺🥺do you need the bo-bot to write you essay too?🥺🥺yeah???🥺🥺you can’t do it??🥺🥺you’re a moron??🥺🥺
Why? What reference is that?
I think there's a novelty to it, like seeing how broken you can make something in a unique way
am i cooked if i write my essay on notepad
today i tested balala vanilla with only my mod today and found 1 gorillion bugs
😭
yes
this is what im saying
also having talisman really lowers my framerate lmao
It depends on the player. Some like Op power fantasy and others hate it
big number bros ,,,,
idk why it was l33t for a sec
n3
hi hayaya
i should put the bamboo
joyously spring
in those plastic buckets
joyful
people put bamboo in
that's basically the default opinion in this chat, haha
JoyousSpring JoyousSpring JoyousSpring
yes
How is this painfully accurate?
if reaching ante 8 is easier like playing on ante 0 permanetly, nuh uh
its fun to progress in the world of balatro
i strongly believe that any score with an e in it should require at least 5 different jokers or an insanely fixed deck to be reached
Hi n from Pokémon
it's fun to actually play the game i reckon
in yggdrasil i understand being OP cuz you have to grind it all
i tend to hide my more op jokers as legendaries for that reason
that's me
i tried to think of every major issue ai art has and slap it on a joker, especially pixel art wise
Ik theres already pokermon but my brain is printing crazy ideas rn based on pokemon abilities and their commonly used moves
there is NOT enough mixels
the shading has to look ass
all my jokers are OP but you need to read them
where are they
as in
shading too
add realistic shading for no reason
the color
the color is not weird enough
as in
Garchomp would have earthquake right?
I'm just saying
aikoyori
fivE
Me too. My jokers only work with certain builds or are insanely rare
feeling good about my mod so far
Honestly, if someone even try to create a AI bot tool for Aseprite and thne decide to use it to create a joker. What would be obvious.
I read somewhere that OpenAI's new image thingy just turns into a slop of sepia garbage if you ask it to make an exact replica of an image multiple times
show set up? is this cheated?
But yeah

I don't think it would happen.
five
i still dont understand how to specify what cards are in the booster pack
create_card be upon ye
we should be using that old image generator (dreamgen?) that just filled the entire image with eyes
dalle mini
Yes, but idk how to convert Sand Veil and Rough Skin into comparable Balatro abilities
i remember it for that horse head in the backrooms
from that one yahiamice video
balatro
bawatro
VoidCat, I really, really recommend starting off with some more simple aspects of modding first, just so you can learn the syntax and how things are set up, and also get more comfortable reading the documentation. It's not a problem to ask for help, but I think you might be in a bit over your head atm with the amount of code help and insight you're needing atm
80% blind requirement since sand veil = 80% accuracy
i guess i could try bug fixing my mod more
Blue archive?
yes
burning abyss
Peak
Yu-Gi-Oh player spotted
I've been able to reach some very insane scores in Kino-only runs lately, so I know there's insane shit in there, but I've yet to see other people make much use of it in screenshots or anything, haha. JoyousSpring's definitely gotten me into the e's multiple times, though. But breaking yugioh type things in yuigoh type ways feels very satisfying even if it's broken, haha
you should play JoyousSpring
#1338302514616995892 isn't made me a yugioh fan, that'd be insane
It hurts my head really
I'm sorry
aikoyori what are you sorry for
What's the fun when you're just wasting hours for hand to calculate
I don't wanna make too many negative abilities but at the same time it might be an option to balance the jokers
i obviously don't care much about balance but i want to make some archetypes less OP so people try out some of the new ones im adding lol
*wasting hours for hand to calculate for e19762
Did you add any old tier 0 decks? Like tear or something?
aka fucking worthless
Or spyral
I'm working on SPYRAL rn
at this point i think that the moment score hits the requirment it should stop sometimes
i may be cooked
thats what endless entropy in entropy is for
it stops you from attempting to proceed past ante 32
aikoyori your mod is not stupid
what was your mod again?
you're not stupid
PLAY AIKOYORI'S SHENANIGANS
im more stupid
all of you play aikoyori's shenanigans
Peak mod
(this might not actually come out for a while)
so entropiv
ante 1 boss 🤔
most of my op shit is locked behind legendary
or ahead
but ahead is purely a meme rarity so i get to do whatever i want with that
Perkeo can get E by itself and needs no deck fixing
no tooltips
i wanna see some real deepcuts as free agents, haha
monsters not even mbt is going to remember
Time to do more empress sleeve runs because
damp car d
it was good tho
Copyrighted funny
im pretty sure no one knows Searchlightman other than me
i should genuinely update the enhancement gfx for that 😭
Did you not see all my jokers that are Op have unique rarities they all rarer than legendary
it looks like ASS
but i literally go through the yugioh wiki and master duel for random free agents lol
You make it take a Joker and give you a random one
like bro whatisthis 😭
as in it stays in your joker slot
it looks so BAD
bamboo
Maybe make it be a resource like $
does this bamboo look like ass
-# please say no please say no please say no please say no please say no please say no

I'm adding BOFA to my balatro mod
oh, does this prevent your opponent from setting trap cards too?
Bofa deese nuts
(edited)
though i will assume flipping the card in your own turn doesnt really do anything
oh shit I do know this card, but only because the art is sick
It autocorrected to sofa by accident
neat
skill issue
sofa deez nuts
also
i should add google chrome to my balatro
to my . mod
where you can go to a webpage and it checks how long the page is in html
Just literally code the entire site into it
Like they did with Doom in Balatro
and gives Xmult per log64(page size in bytes)
actually I'm going to
put that ability
to pissandshittium
An infinitely long website where any part can be edited by anyone. Edit for free and with no signup.
Me about to get infinite multi
From knowing this
please
???
i
How I thematically add anything related to comedy in a game that's already themed are jokers??
was was was was was was
Oh, btw, Bepis, Yggdrasil crafting, how do the crafted objects work? Do they just give bonuses permanently and remain in your inventory across multiple runs?
comedy clubs are often associated with microphones?
i dunno
mhm
X 3.6 Mult btw
Yeah, hahaha, that'd work for art for sure. I'm mainly looking for a seal or enhancement concept
you can actually drag the relics to another area (crafting, delete, etc) to disable their effects
hence, the While in Inventory line
Superhero and Comedy are the last notable genres I don't have a design concept for, enhancement/seal wise
laugh seal, if you do a good play while in hand they laugh and give X2 mult, if you do a boring play they give X0.75 mult
might be cool for hsr fans idk
where is it bepis.
Ah okay, yeah, then I did understand it properly. I just wasn't sure whether they were supposed to linger across runs. So, what's the difference between crafted relics, and active abilities, design-wise?
anything but ARTTTTTTT
...active abilities?
active abilities would require you to manually trigger them, right?
Update it and I'll play it
uhh crafted relics sort of act like permanent jokers, i guess, idk
you won't get infinite mult
thats probably the easiest way to describe them
Oh I meant abilities that you've activated by buying them, haha. Very bad choice of words on my part
Ah okay. I have some ideas for Kino related items to craft, but I'd probably want them to offer single run utility. But there's probably just a dissolve I could call on them, right?
mm items are saved to G.PROFILES[G.SETTINGS.profile]["YggInventory"] or something, if you want them to have single run utility then you prob want to have a way to get that item specifically removed from there
There's an RPG where there is a boss that has a mechanic that cares about being dramatic in your combat, no? I seem to vaguely remember that, haha
...mettaton?
Not the one I was thinking of, but also, yes
oh, but the loot system is currently not crossmod compatible yet, though it should be able to implement
-# which means other mods currently cant add new materials and relics, sadly
Maybe comedy seals should just give you naninf score if the cards held in hand contain 7, 8 and 9
primarily due to no stuff preventing the inventory ui and such from loading items which come from other mods, and they will try to read information thats not available which cause crashes
I mean, I'd add any compat with regular abilities first before I commit to spending time on art, hahaha
lmao fair
So there's absolutely no rush
Also, I'd wanna see the art style you'd go for so I could make my stuff match

did you add bingo to your mod
not yet
day 1 of asking for bepis in bountiful
Ok iM adding it to my mod
why not
is there a joker from any mod that randomizes ranks i wanna see how they do it
okay what would it even do though
this is funny, go for it
we need more gameplay changing silly mods

i dont see aiko shen
this is such a stupid econ joker idea
This is the one AI Joker that’s actually pretty believable to be made by AI. It isn’t completely destroyed, but you can tell it isn’t perfect.
Even the description feels AI generated
no vanila:<
my mod is pretty vanilla
(true)
okay not really
it's more like
vanilla-balanced
vanilla-adjacent
The fork:
seemlessly vanilla?
decently seamless
like some jokers can get you far but they aren't really carries or naneinf material
Aggresively vanilla
and so Bunco
does prism having myth cards count 🤓
yeah but thats established
"we have xChips at home"
xChips at home:
xmult but blue and a cooler sound
it runs
I FORGOT CARDSLEEVES
FINALLY SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS
banilla
xchips sounds like rattling i like it
xchips sound is so satisfying
its vanilla now
who ever has my mod should update wink wink hint hint
and yeah TWO PAGES
finall y.
God, doing an updating segment display on the sci Fi cards is more work than I was expecting it to be
deciding wether to work on my commercial game project or my balatro mod
neither
where the devs at
is that a rickroll joker
bos
chat im cooking
whoever did the background, it looks pretty
this voucher feels wrong to be in a vanilla run
what mod r u working on this time 🤔
I'm scared.
do you consider MF and SDM0 vanilla?
i forget what mod you run
also i was planning on updating every mod I have rn but damn it would take so long 
morefluff is a no, idk about sdm0 though, never tried it
hey thats mine
why mf no?
hehe
colour cards
oh right
ik it isnt exactly vanilla but its really good
especially The Ticket
something that you can get at ante 8 to make the final ante much harder
@wanton rapids make ticket rewarding>:(
ticket will be unchanged
aw
im going to tweak
I kinda wanna see more stuff with it though
you can add your own dx blinds
i dare you to unlock the difficulty skill in morefluff with yggdrasil :3
this song and building vanilla modpack goes hard
it does replace every boss blind in endless with the dx blinds
epic blind if it wasnt epic
is garbshit in the vanilla modpack?
asking for no particular reason
unrelated but I need some pointers with making the text more visible
yes I could make the letters bigger but then Construction won't fit
Maybe make it bigger or add a border around the letters
are you vanilla?
im chocolate
those italian brainrots as Jokers
xchips aint vanilla:<
stracciatella is an ice cream flavour...
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
btw i think my mod is (mostly?) vanilla adjacent
is there any busted jokers tho?
at least i try to make it so
uhhh
i dont think so ?
a couple of the legendaries are quite strong
but i wouldn't say busted
adding garb then
better, thanks
let me know if there are any! balance changes can happen
unfortunately i haven't been able to get as much playtesting in as i'd want to
you better be
so any feedback is appreciated
love this
thanks
maths is scary ... ooOoOOoooOOoooOOOOooh
im releasing the pack in #1209506514763522108 soon
is that allowed?? i forgot
indeed, graffiti would also work
why not
Looks better yea
yeah fuck it
have you asked permission for all mods?
imma pack it all up first rq
and then ask
like look at this, it just doesn't feel right
^Vanilla Modpack
Chaos Enpowered Modpack
Fun Fair Modpack
i did put in messages in it though
- mult 4 ever, ca$h money, the cool s, and
chips
The J is actually based off of that anarchy A symbol, but it's a J here
for Joker
there's too much graffiti, the composition is messy
have you seen the freedom deck
yea I suspected as much
its for the chaos enpowered modpack
I did use my aseprite spray tool with some transparency to make it look like it was sprayed on the wall instead of an overlay
ykw I'll redo it later
I need a hand with something
My Balatro crashes whenever I select a card
I have a whole bunch of mods on but the result was the same when I switched them all off save for debug+ and talisman
I require Thy thoughts to be said about Thy joker
hmmm
Hey chat
does it upgrade first before randomise
Is it possible to make the joker sprite higher quality if i increased the x and y pixels in the atlas
Or will that make my joker bigger in size
Yes.
?
this is insane omg
It wouldn't. The px and py ask for the size of each joker in the atlas in pixels.
It randomizes before upgrades but I think the poker hand still stays the same
which thinking about it that doesnt sound right eh ill just move the context poker hand will stay the same
bingor
as opposed to mathisfun
so it will upgrade before and randomize after hoepfully that makes sense
Development will continue after i finish deltarune
good enough
cross mod synergy! hell yeah!
just had a new joker idea
‘Trash talk’
card gains2X mult if played hand triggers boss blind effect
how so
it’ll barely pop because i’ll probably do it like matador but it’s powerful to compensate for that
the jump cards allow for cards to take any place in straights
which mod has that
mine, they're releasing soon
they were out in beta for a while
patched them out yesterday and will add them in when they're done
nope
I am yet to play the garbshit updates but they look very cool just like the rest of the mod fr
I love that song
Handy and Galdur is a must
hey, im back in balatro. what are the best recent mods in the game?

hi bepis
hi th30ne
i hate my life 😭
and i am back on bug fixes that i dont understand
also, will you be makeing textures for your cards yourself or could i help with that?
think i broke my game after my last run, i started a new one and now it crashes whenever i start a new deck
jolly lil build
might need some joker textures when i get round to that, but we arent there yet
ill keep that in mind tho
fair
the hardest part of modding for me is making code that doesnt inmediatly crash the game
it's in
checkered/erratic/abandoned deck players:
intended synergy
Should have an unlisted chance to misfire and accidentally shoot you instead
or anti-synergy, depends on how you see it
can you win a "nan" blind?
yes, technically
im not sure how this isnt a shittier mr bones
I need some help, I have steammoded and lovely installed, and I have the balatro multiplayer installed, but when I try to add bunco I get an error. (if im in the wrong chat lmk)
doesnt require a percentage and also deck reset could be good sometimes
resetting your deck has benefit, in case you make some very bad decisions
this is rare not because of strenght btw, but because having too many death preventing jokers be easily findable creates way too easy cheese strats
better having it appear less
you generally spend the entire run trying to not have the 52 card standard deck so you must have really fucked up real bad if this is a preferable outcome
devil's deal
also useful as a pivot tool
what build works with a 52 standart deck?
so like
if you use the card you dont instantly lose the next round
the entire fucking deck synergy
well, imagine this, you're doing a flush build, your whole deck is spades, and you decide you want to build towards bloodstone, but doing so with no hearts is hard, so you reset the deck and boom, hearts
am i going to have to make my own art for this
or! you've thinned the deck too much, and now risk losing because of not enough cards
boom, fucking shoot jimbo
in the head
true
I think the joker is way too situational, but like a lot of jokers are
i now have 3 death preventing jokers
which isn't a lot
but i think i should stop
before this becomes comical
3 death preventing jokers is an increase of 300% from vanilla

how do we feel about some of these

are these boss blinds
they sound like cards
no they’re medals. yo-kai medals
Which page then?
intrastin
oh WOW refined deck HARD CRASHES
Impossible to know what they do because there's no mechanics tied to what they are, and they reference card types we don't know
god bless HEAVILY MODDED PLAYERS
ur in the modding chat what do u expect gamer

balatro star rail mentioned
so many mods to cross mod
i hate bala la
which ever shall i do first
No. If I don't know how these are obtained or when they activate, I can't grok anything about this
for rank do
for suit do
make card with rank and suit
end

Limbus Company
youve shown us a consumable that says "lose the run" without any context im not sure what you expect
that is indeed easy
are these like regular consumables?
To which degree is it a reset? Does it go to standard 52, or to the deck you had before round 1
standard 52
generated by some random mechanic you have in your mod?
well, these are yo-kai medals, and yes, they are regular consumables.
...i mean, this is good as temporary art, i guess
chat is this good
but... why would you flip them
you can find them only in medal packs, or if you have a specific voucher you can find them in the shop too
N' you cant just give us a card and expect us to know whether is good or not
play JoyousSpring :3
whats the synergy here
10/10 insane counter to that one finisher blind
ok!
you should make it a legendary
i konw theres a lot of flip synergies in your mod, so i literally cant judge sob
Why would I buy a voucher to be able to obtain a consumable that instakills me, is my first instinct
this is ASS
yeah thats the joke lol
https://balatromods.miraheze.org/wiki/JoyousSpring/Jokers/Subterror
:3
nice blind unfortunately i will flip cyber jar
unfortunately i shall flip fiber jar
well if you enter a shop and instinctively take q’wit then idk what you say
I find it a very anti-player mechanic that people will try once and not again once they realize the medals are there to negatively impact their run
As a developer, I'd yap on about how randomness is something players enjoy engaging in when the randomness feels in their control and two, won't be punished for trying new things that are random. Your packs do nothing but punish the player for choosing them, therefore being an anti-player mechanic and you should consider how long your mod will be installed to the average person who downloads it
man I wish haya is online rn I suddenly got an ingenious idea for a deck for their mod
clear an edition is not something we can judge unless you tell us why wed want to clear an edition
crash:
i mean, you can remove foil/holo from your blueprint
inspirited is something you made up so we also cant judge
I hate crash, though, tbf
did cryptid straight up remove crash
shame we can't choose the joker, but yea there's nothing inherently wrong with removing a joker effect
there should be a trade-off tho
its a random joker's edition, so uh, very risky
so inspirited is an edition which like, makes it so the card or joker has a 1/3 chance to not score
and most of the times, i will doubt that it even hits the right joker
considering you usually have 5+ jokers
removes your negative effect get owned
Having an unwanted edition on a joker, being able to remove it, and then applying another one seems also like a sufficiently niche chain of events that it's never worth playing for
yeah
youd onlt want it if there was a detrimental edition or you had edition specific synergy modded jokers
So why would a player ever want to buy any of these medals, then?
high ante play wouldn't mind it
I suspect I'm missing a key part of the equation
im not taking off holo on my blueprint to maybe make it negative in the future
but edition control is, yeah, really niche
i forgot to mention that inspirited cards that DO score give x3 mult
Okay, that's the one benefit your mod gives out of a pack full of pain
erm, mod... I mean pack.
High level play wouldn't waste economy on a booster pack that has a 1 in X chance to remove an edition, I'd say. Unless you meant naninf runs as high level, instead of high stake?
yeah that's what i mean
what the hell is the point of the skip blind consumable if you can already do that in game 😭
it's a mid-game save-me button
"oh no i can't score out and dont have a joker"
oh wait yeah
if you have a particularly bad boss blind or just a bad blind in general then, just use legsit
Never mind thats good
hey chat
ok whats the point of wazzat or qwit?
i just thought q’wit would be funny… but i guess not…..
it's not lol :V
it's funny as a punch in the face
Messing with the player's run requires thinking what would be the most chaotic option, but not the most lethal
I don't blame you for wanting to try it, haha, but a thing I try to keep in mind with adding jokes into game design is that a joke probably won't be funny after a few uses, but it will pop up in the game still. Cryptid has the Crash code card, for example, that crashes the game, and it's funny once, and after that it becomes an annoyance in any run for filling space in booster packs or the shop
make it common
i think i might make it so wazzat targets jokers with editions primarily
make it not consider negative edition
oK but whats the point 😭
i probably can make 100 Bad Game Design jokers
is it also a joke
> Horse walks in
to remove unwanted editions
There's potential utility in removing an edition, but generally speaking yes, not wanted
there's probably editions you don't want in other mods but in vanilla that is useless
If you don't want chaos, make your packs niche utility that service in weird ways
maybe it would be useful if it targeted inspirited or something
yknow what, yeah
infinite hands
1 in 2 chance to instantly murder half of your face cards
what if we includes morefluff's blunder in it
why don't you include every finisher blind effect into it xD
every blinds effect applies
when sold: trigger anyway
actually
I think the best player downside mechanics are either for blinds, or as some sort of mechanic you're warned about. The insta-death jokers in Kino all have flavour text indicating there's negative consequences, for example.
If you want it to be an active choice for a player to pursue a downside, during their run, you'll want to make it a trade off, I'd say. The other option is a forced choice. For example, every ante, open a pack of 'downsides' that you can't skip. That way you get to choose your downside. But for a general consumable, you'll generally wanna lean towards positive utility. You have to remember that in the shop, you don't have to buy it, and in a booster pack, your design is competing against the skil button
well shucks
Yes, but it's description also does and you don't know whether it's current description lines up with its current effect
there's more to Bad Game Design than Bad Joker That Kills You Instantly
- 5 Hand
wasn't it just Bad Joker That Makes You Win Instantly 😭
wait no
yes that's one of those things
here's bad game design:
Creates a Immolate if a Steel Jack of Clubs played
HOly i just got a really stupid iea
That's parasitic design, it only interacts with itself
Either means inspirited jokers are annoyingly common, or that the use case is incredibly niche
here's bad game design:
+10 Mult for every time you click on this joker
Creates an Exotic joker (regardless if you have cryptid or not)
what if there was a joker that lets you use a hand to flip face down cards
mfkaa even
I mean, nothing wrong with that as a design approach. Might just be too niche for this consumable to be very useful
good for you , I am BAD at making joker effects!
i suppose it becomes a choice in its own pathing inevitably then yeah
Not sure I get what you're saying here, haha
+10 chips for every day since Bougainville became independent (it hasn't yet)
Thinking as a player in decision making i see things like threads to pursue
pathing = threads
snow spect-hare applies inspirited to playing cards so maybe i should make wazzat work with both jokers and playing cards
Bad Game Design:
You must watch an ad for JoyousSpring every time you play a hand, x10 Mult
I think you should keep the utility of cleansing random editions so you can still do cleansing intrinsic first, but,
Try on the description maybe "Cleanse a random Joker of its Edition"
and then in the code you can check for intrinsic first, then if none, do random edition removal instead
that's good game design 😡
(also, the edition effect of 2/3 chance of X3 mult, or 1/3 chance of nothing means you'll almost always get out on top playing them. In a hand of 5, you can assume basically an x27)
i see.
Set Game Speed to 0.5, +50 Mult
Edition cleansing is such a niche effect, I'd just make it so you're able to pick your target
Bad Game Design:
if it is past 4 AM, x19 Chips
what if the consumable was like
It's not possible to select jokers so far as I'm aware outside of a mod
oh i guess LOL LEFTMOST OR RIGHTMOST
that's how you select em
When at 5+, +2 Coin Power
what if the consumable was Remove/add any edition of selected Joker
It definitely is, I've got it as a mechanic for consumables in Kino
...
how do you think
you sell
jokers
.
listen to me i ran out of coffee
bonks you on the head
When at 5+, +7 Chips
im functioning at 25% capacity
Tbf, it is not possible to select a Joker when you're opening a booster pack and also using a controller
there should be a wild card but for ranks
Unless you move over to use your mouse
oh
I have to go to the store but that involves facing the SUN
I have an ingenious idea
Bad Game Design:
Does not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not create a random consumable
i probably won’t change chicken chukket or skulleidoscope
the amount of nots is random per day
since chat is in an analytical and thinking and Intelligence smart intellectual mood I need your thoughts on this joker. i feel like its a little OP
-# this is the last time i will post this joker im sorry
skulleidoscope gives one joker polychrome but inspirits another
i think its fine
its not as op as you think
uncommon jokers are supposed to be staples of builds anyways
Bad Game Design:
You must pay a $50/week subscription, you can quit any time after 2 years. 1 in 200 chance to wipe your save file every minute. x2 Mult
its definitely a good staple for straight builds
Also, I definitely think it's sometimes better to just implement your ideas and play with them to see if they're fun, rather than try and get feedback on the ideas. Helps with developing a sense for what works and what doesn't
thats fair but people might have different perspectives and strategies
but yeah you're right i should probably play around with it, still would like to know your thoughts
yeah but balancing to your level is still a good start
if you can get an e score in ante 4 with your joker you should be nerfing it a lot
but im not sure how many straights you can form if the ranks are randomized when you play one
When at 5+ Gros Michel, +7 Chips
yeah, definitely do this. My idea of fun is very reserved to my own nonsense
lol thank you I tried to make it sound like if ChatGPT came up with a joker
Bad Game Design:
Makes everything have the Holographic shader
even the text yes
and the buttons and the shop and the blinds and the
this is what i do, I don't trust anyone with feedback on preliminary ideas
mm well, dunno, if you are good with deck fixing then you can definitely get straights consistently even with bingo's effect
hell, i actually think its pretty weak with that randomize effect
this guy should play Kino
Game Design:
Remove everything except the text
^^ hard agree on this. i do runs with my own mod all the time for testing and i think the plantian dev did gold stakes on their jokers
Hold on
Let me go ask them myself
I have an idea
its pretty easy leveling though
Yeah, for sure. And no one here tends to have enough context for mod-specific mechanics to be able to judge them.
poker hand levels arent as hard to get as you think, trust me
making a mod that prevents straights from scoring in the month of June
that one voucher + planet packs, blue seals (ESPECIALLY blue seals)
Good way to start spending most of your dev time on discord talking about the ideas rather than making them, as well, hahaha
is yggdrasil mentioned
What are the biggest Balatro mods? Cryptid, Pokermon, Paperback?
has anyone played balatro star rail yet
and it doesnt help that straight is just an overall hard hand to buld around anyways
on youtube i mean
bunco and prism also
although the code is definitely there, the art arent all finished yet
I'm in the process of trying to white stake every joker I added, and that's a time sink, man, haha. I can't imagine doing that for Gold stake, hahaha
does this look good enough to be playable or do i need to tweak it more?
you have like 200 something though, right? plantain has 15, 25 including wave 2
oh wow light colors definitely dont go well with the background lol
you could play a march 7th with this...
the technology..
I'd maybe have a generic lighter spot around the suit and ranks in the corners, to help readability
hm... touhou face card
makes sense I'll do that
balatro star rail joyous blossom crossmod content
Oh, damn, I thought plantain had like 40. But yeah, I have 262 implemented atm, hahaha
woah
5 way crossmod content 
is pokermon the one with the most jokers?
time... to code
or is there another one
i wish
I thought you had it beat, at this point
according to the github they have 3 more
but they implemented more since then i think
challenge for modders: make a NORMAL joker mod
next update im beating them for sure
Ok
I can definitely do that
Eh nah
no special mechanics, no love shenanigans, nothing
ah
Op jokers allowed then
b-but... but my mod is normal...
Limbus Company mod when
how to make a mod just wondering maybe?
there seems to be a suspiciously large overlap between balatro modders and project moon fans
I thought that was obvious
we're like Jojo fans of the past
I'm so deeply uninterested in adding true vanilla-like content, haha. If I wanted to play more vanilla, I'd play vanilla, honestly. (Also I'm not good enough at game design to make stuff that works well enough in Balatro's higher stakes)
hey! my other mod is relatively normal with no weird mechanics
Annoying, Invasive, somehow everywhere
https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade is a very useful reference for looking at how to do all sorts of vanilla functionality with SMODS
are you sure
I'm sending you to the rift raft void
If I make another mod after Kino, I'm adding 0 jokers. Just too many overly complex mechanics
Is this a reference
If not I'm losing it
welp

i believe i can just copy code from another mod i have
i like playing with vanillish/vanilla+ mods a lot because it's fun to see a feature that could realistically exist in vanilla but doesn't. makes me feel like i'm playing an update instead of just fiddling around with mods
honk shooooo
honk shooo
I do see the appeal there, though I feel like with those in mind, as well, the space left to explore becomes even smaller, haha
the code in question
Ik it's op it's meant to be. The flavor is the main thing in my mod
Honk shoo
mod idea: they moderate a discord server
hm
I still like the idea that came up a while ago here that was all about jokers who's effects directly tied into a mod specific discord server for it
i disagree, there's so many joker ideas i throw out it's insane. there's already plenty of out-there jokers in vanilla, there's a lot of room to make some weird stuff. also, i find that new mechanics that don't mesh with vanilla tend to lead to a lower density of interesting choices in runs, but that's probably just my sensibilities taking

Add Bleed to a random Joker
Bleed : Debuffed after 2 rounds
Rage Bait
Gains X0.1 mult when a member of the Balatro Discord Server uses a slur
(Currently Xnaneinf)
Is this a Joker or is it a boss?
everyone in the balatro discord is nice and amicable (i dont go outside the modding chats)
Genshin Impact server then 😁
well, first. i need this to be in the joker area and not in the hand
i've had a funny idea for a challenge involving shoot the dealer
a consumable I just thought of after seeing #⚙・modding-general message
