I think anyone who expresses anti-intellectual sentiment is a person I don't mind blocking
Looks like horse shit
looks good!
Because if their response to me being passionate is to shut down that passion then I think they can go to hell
youre too hard on yourself
What's your reference?
go to redfit bro
let him out of that box he's squished 😭
is this why you keep getting blocked 😭
Ah got it that makes sense
Okay so I'd say you should focus on the overall silhouette rather than on the structure
I mean I tried doing that
if I was to make a mod I think I would make a mod about object permanence
Try to replicate the shape verbatim, just at a lower res
WDYM BRO 😭😭😭
oh my goooooddd
people are too hard to please nowadays
blocking nxkoo for breathing
mentally and physically
D:
blocking nxkoo for thinking
DDD:
Can confixm Nxkoo is on my blocklist
who?
He also made this #1379136953307500645 message
who
is this rizz
blocking nxkoo for making tangents
Im pretty sure Nxkoo goes by she/they
She also made this #1379136953307500645 message
good job
idk I just downloaded it to my desk top
Tomorrow
and then I click the ".h t m l" file
wsow thanks
but I havent gotten it to install into balatro correctly
idk just dragging it onto the executable just runs the game
I might dislike someone but I'm still gonna correct pronouns for them because there's a line of human decency
ethan stop baiting 😭
oh you just run the malware exe file
Yea I apologize
its all good surely you didnt mean it
do I need smods in the same folder as jokerforge?
hi green
no you dont you just need jokerforge
yes and you need glovely sequel to plovely
not even the balatro files
you need green lovely
which is a prequel to lovely
you can run balatro from jokerforge
I dont need smods? cool
play balatro with your mind
smods sucks anyways
Dawg just steal from VanillaRemade atp
balamod >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> smods
Please tell me that you're playing along 😭
vanillaremade is stolen?
you need blemmoded which is made by blemmo
green
I stole a lot of code from it
its green
noah
dont trust anyone named green
And people were fine with it
thank god im cyan
obviously not
hey whats the name of the horse from elden ring i forgot
ive been working on this godforsaken steammodded hell for a year and a half now i WISH it was an optional thing
idk horse
Jovial Merryment vs Unarmed
wait how do I drag vanillaremade opnto joker forge
What no
imagine a world where balatro released with steam workshop support and was beautifully standardized by localthunk from the start
press f5 and alt and the green key
paypal the creator 500 bucks
that should do the trick
greendows
I was proposing a different method of modding cro
Joker Forge > Import Mod > Mod Dropdown: Vanilla Remade > Save
Hope this helps!
i made tangents btw
Too late for that sorta deal. The community has standardized around lovely and smods. It would require a huge pivot and would likely not be totally adhered to. Would help with content distribution. Best case scenario I would need to distribute lovely on Steam (Like DFHack) but it still causes issues.
erosol
what
And any modding API is just going to replace smods, you would need a lovely replacement which requires code-level modification.
Bmodloader
balamod
balamod is an option yes
metherul youre breaking character
ethan lock in
FUCK
were going back in time to bring balamod back on the menu
you buffoon
What does Balamod script look like compared to Steamodded script
buffoon...
hey so I was trying to install busty buffoons but it kept asking for my id but im 14
busted buffoon.....
what the fuck is busty buffoons
but busty buffoons
just show green.png
is that actually real
Flowing Kings
they let anything pass
Busty Buffoons? Dawg I didn’t make that
I cant remember the name but yes
or is that just jimbos big naturals but shitpost version
go go plovely i choose you
man I need to make busty buffoons
I’m “BUSTED” Buffoons gang, I make the super powerful jokers
plovely and lovely are supposed to exist together 😭
they're lovers
whos this weirdo deny
metherul is calling
You did what to buffoons?
what about lolevy
enhance 1 selected card into a wild card
I am Busted Buffoons
can i install lolevy with lovely
this is so #lol 😆
busting buffoons as the counterpart to jimbos big naturals
ok
theyre busting to the big naturals
Is Busted Buffoons just gonna be full of Sex Innuendos?
I’m gonna have to rename my mod
medium
no not innuendos, it'll be explicit
Edged Jesters
i heard its incompatible with balatro plus though
so idk why youd install it
Because I don’t like Sex Motifs in my mod deliberately about super powerful jokers
sexmotif is like a leitmotif but with ... fucking
its also incompatible with fun mode
anyways sorry for being annoying, I've not eaten today so my brain is not working well
oh weird
im busting the buffoons for bringing illegal firearms across the border
why would you install that
jimbo would 100% do this
just eat?? ez
lets be real
you guys havent made the same mistake as me
dont search "lovely-injector" and see what mods people have made on obscure forums
get on my level im a level 100 eater
metherul you should go on the seafood diet
Im gonna trim down Crossy's mod roster because im not making any more jokers for 40 different deck skin mods that have extremely niche references
im vegetarian 😭
you sea food and youe eat it
lovely patch it
Ill go on a (gr)ass diet
It’s pretty difficult to put into words just how angry i am with you all.
wtf
I don't think fucking Nexus mods is obscure
Nexus is full of porn balatro mods
it was NOT nexusmods
WHERE
but yes
Angry or upset, what’s the right word?
links or i dont believ
loverslab 😭
is busty buffoons on there
is that lovers-lab or lover-slab
register on nexus >enable nsfw content in setting >you'll fucking see them
is that the gerber baby
etho slab minecraft 2012 april fools
holy shit that's @plush hound
bustING buffoons
busting buffoons
@grok is this true??
busting buffoons
as much eagerness as my friend nugget when they even SLIGHTLY hear of a latino in the area
Yo
nugget mentioned
the right term is lets not talk about this 😭
Nobody even clicked on the link ong
busting buffoons
busting buffoons
This is one considerably weird topic to talk about in a balatro modding chat of all places
horse is typing
horse
Should I leave this server?
Actually not considerably
burping buffoons
Just plain
We all probably should
youre not real
drats
I should invite pickle and stone into clams
even if for a bit
clams casino
i love how the presence of ruby is just a selling point now
ruby is in balatrostuck too

evil grandma
what the fuck goes on in uppercase stalker gamma
they got midas in the server
My fault for being born in 2006
they be turning the true guy into gold
no the midas king guy that turns everything he touches into gold

Oh, the ACTUAL Midas
who even is midas twitter
Just call him King Midas cru
Don’t.
i wasnt going to brotato
I will not say anything about him.
niche microceleb
Yeah I recently found out
sprigatito pfp iirc
That Xekanos is based off of a Homestuck mf named Lord English
Hence the eyes
And red spots I believe?
england
balatrostuck has lord english and the gang all there
so, I'm playing yahimod
I wish I was like 13 in 2006 so I could read Homestuck, Scott Pilgrim, uhh
i forgot how silly this sticker looks
But I keep getting yahiamice joker every other run
Old mfs be living the Y2K life and I experienced none of that
what does it do
banner is a good choice
stake sticker
I’m cooked bruh, my shit got pegged
gives you a random negative modifier every ante
Now everybody gonna call me a jit…
Why is stake sticker positioned like that
my chud son and his awful friends
Thanks
Just for fun or is there a reason?
For some reason getting yahiamice is trivial
np
i lament that i cant post gifs
A stupid lil’ jit who doesn’t know anything about Homestuck or Scott Pilgrim and is too busy hanging around with Newgen Undertale Deltarune Jits
why do you care
I fucking hate being not in the know
you should play balatrostuck its the perfect gateway drug to homestuck
I always thought that Homestuck is a “you shoulda been there” type of thing
I don't know shit about homestuck or scott pilgrim
its also just a good story
its insanely long though
“Otherwise the experience is just lame as shit”
its not
Me when I enjoy the things I ljke because i enjoy the things I like
Even when it’s too late?
Depends if you're in the right mindset ig
never personally read homestuck tbh, should i?
yes
alr
It's not too late, like sure there are stupid references all over the place but who gives a single shit
Perfect what now?
Start reading and see if you can stomach this bullshit first
also balatrostuck has the hardest going zodiac cards ever i think
Me when balatro modder adds niche reference about Mr Spoogento from the hit game bourbon whiskey simulator released for the gamecube but had 40% of its cartridges eaten hyenas during the tragedy of 09 and is now considered lost media in the bittlebop archive website
So fucking true
Oh yeah, I think I remember watching about “God forms” or something
godtiers
I was looking at the history of megalovania
but these are ancestors
And apparently those forms are “god tiers”
What are they? Complex Multiversal Interdimensional Overlords?
also all the zodiacs are subtitled in Alternian, the Troll alphabet
kind of but also just kids who played a game that ends the world and forges you into a god of a new one
through coming of age bullshit
Oh nah, this is a level of freakshit I’m too scared to hear about.
is this spoilers
Read*
4kids
forbidden texts
okay
I still didn't bother to read beyond canon
i lost my progress on homestuck when i was tryna read it
i like dirk's horse people
Dirk's fucking what
hes like a chill guy who doesnt give a fuck
this is 8000 pages long
i think i at least got past ||the part where megalovania plays|| or ||that really long flash animation broken into chapters||
arrow keys work
what am i looking at
that makes it easier
No I'm very disconnected with community therefore have zero knowledge on BC kinda
thanks
yeah so swiss is one of the horse people that dirk made to compete with rose's nymph species
the horses and the squids are at war
blaring light
Oh my god
this is so weird
i have beef with this guy bc of his frutiger aero video. bro said that it was a shitty aesthetic and praised vaporwave at the same time. he should just say he misses the 90s, chud
hes the chud, not you
he's also right wing and generally unpleasant so yeahhh LOL
Oh ews
fwiw im not crazy abt frutiger aero either but at least im not a hypocrite abt it
yes
Play a Balatro run without face cards
I’ve been fucking missing out on everything
I wish I was like the guy everyone knows that knows everything about everything
trust me read homestuck first it will genuinely like change you as a person
I hope not “entirely”.
I don’t wanna start worshipping this like it’s the Old Testament.
thats not how that works
its simply an incredibly good work that you will like
internalize
That doesn't happen with media unless you have bigger problems
i think my creative output has been heavily informed by Homestuck
I will start on Monday right after my first day of my second semester I think. (Cause I have other things to worry about tomorrow)
When the fake arms joke was included in the pilot for no reason but fan service
Sylladexes are awesome
Awesomeness comes from stupidity in this case
On a scale of “I’ll be normal” to “Kiss me on my lips”, how messed up might I get if I started reading? (For reference, almost my entire portfolio is now just Spinel)
hard to gauge
(Even my alt account.)
this is just getting more and more confusing
Roll a D20 rq
evgast have you played balatrostuck
yes...
homestuck is pretty fun
its a fduck navigating the pages though since my browser is slow
I will one day learn why John Egbert
Is this higher stake bullshittery? I only played lowest of blindside stake so far
no im just messing with shaders
Ooh
john egbert rose lalonde ascend descend rise up abscond dave strider jade harley they all play sburb and end the world
harlequin nanna bro mom dad youth roll grandpa pesterchum hella jeff and sweet bro
jodhn just topple his grandmas ashes what the fuck goes on in homestuck
Lmao
I mean, you should have seen it coming
its ok those are plot relevangt
i met the urns in the last slide
If there is an urn, it will fall
this is true this is correct
urns in media exist to shatter into pieces and dump dead person dust
WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN ITS PLOT RELEVANT
yes
heres a miraheze link
this is the magnump opus
best joker
this is the actual ingame effect too
How long did development take?
It’s been 5 months I’ve just made over 3 pages worth of jokers.
of mod?
Yes
Please tell me that this crusty description is a real thing ingame
I’m unsure if I can do my entire mod on my own…
All the art is mine
I did most of the programming but realistically I begged people to help me learn the basics of smods
yeah
Sick
Who are you trying to compete with 😭
Waow
why would you wanna compete
we're not competing
thats such an ass mindset
And I am the ultimate dust sweeper.
that's a very anime statement that does no one any benefits
Oh my god this is so sick
But am I emotionally false?
and this totally not ominous ball
really cool ui stuff. how'd you set that up?
I feel as though my own fruits are not worth keeping.
ignore the white text at the bottom
i mean
you can probably compete with shitty jokerforge mods
absolutely?
Does next 3 cards mean 3 cards that will be drawn?
So i can only compete with bottom of the barrel mods?
yeah its based on draw order
so you see your next 3 cards from the deck
it can also explode in your face
we're releasing mods for free. There's no competition with judges that vote, nor is there a revenue to be made to make sure your mod continues existing. Unless you're a die hard believer in some economy of attention takes, just assume people consume art in all forms because they're into it
there's also the "hope you like hammers dude" joker
well not exactly
Lmao
you're not competitors, co-workers, rivals or anything with people doing the same hobby as you. You're just people making art for art's sake, unless you decide there's some other sake to focus on
I’m attention hungry :p
i do everything for a couple of clicks from randos
You can compete with me
yeah, doesn't mean that everyone's in on the competition
it's a self-destructive mindset
my chud son CD and his dumbass effect
for funsies
every mod isn't exactly perfect
The only high quality mod is Qualatro
the idea that you can win at art is antithetic to what art is
Paperback, All in Jest, Qualatro, even ArtBox
evgast do you like apple juice
Yeah but the effort is still there.
appy juice
Maybe I’m seeing it differently.
Because I know a lot of people work on content mods
As in groups
😭
thats indicative of nothing
So then what do I do with my mod?
also @winged prism what do you think of my joker concept where you ragebait karkat
Do I bring someone over to help me? Or do I do everything myself?
personally, i think the reason to try to not fall for that mindset is not that there's anything wrong with thinking that people are 'better' than you at something, or to be motivated by other people putting out good content. But yeah, for sure, competition is antithetical to art. If it's a competition, you're motivated to not help other people make their thing better, or share new things you've learned. While the entire modding community here is build on having open source mods, and people sending each other code snippets, and writing APIs, packages, and guides to help you make something better. The cool thing is cooperation, and seeing it as competition is souring yourself on the shared resource of enthusiasm and knowledge that comes from other people
How are you so good with these ideas 😭
its not just me theres a couple of my friends too who did like
a lot on balancing
and shit
but i come up with the funnies
and draw them
oh also paradox cards are so fun
Kicker
+4 Mult
If played hand has an unscored
card, destroy one and give +30 chips
I’ve been taught that getting help will only make me dependent.
womp womp
also, a decent number of mods are solo-dev, no? Kino, Grab Bag, TOGA, JoyousSpring, Aiko, LobCorp. I think MF mostly as well, and Revo's. I could probably go on
kicker - kicker
mf is solo dev apart from some art
balatrostuck used to be solo dev when i was depressed and in a really bad situation in my life and then i did squat with the mod for like a couple months and then i put together a team and it was rough at first but now we run pretty well actually and its awesome to have people i can depend on
same ig
seems like you just want to feel a certain way and are finding reasons as to why afterwards,
my mod!!
you dont get shit out of being a contrarian shit
I believe I’m susceptible to hearsay, believing them and enacting their proposed sins and believing in the consequences.
...I basically am solo-dev of code and visuals, more or less, yeah. Though that doesn't stop me from assisting others where I can.
in fact if a mod is developed by an edgy contrarian im less likely to give it a try
my mods solo
you'll still try lovely 
its okay to get help
WE are all switching to the Manual Injector
biggest problem with getting help is making sure you dont lose your ideas in the process
NO
meth you are my favorite solipsist
also big difference between getting help and getting people to do things for you. I've got a lot of help from N, Eremel, Victin, Bepis, a bunch of other people, not to mention the people who spam all my bugs in my thread, but in most cases I've tried to not just accept the help, but also learn from what they're explaining
you are the only real person in this chat and we are all figments of your incredibly vivid imagination
SEE? That's what I've been saying for AGES
Manually injecting, tapping my balatro's bicep until I see veins pop up so I can inject kino straight into it
chat tag yourself which colour are you
I've been saying this as well but that just means you've been saying it, tbh
oh right ice you werent there for prelovely
why when I try to continue my run its crashing my game? using balatro mod manager, and this is the mods I got only this 3 mods
smods prelovely was a fucking warzone
-# Neither was I.
I'm second gen ✌️ and I'm defining second gen as exactly when I made Kino's thread
wtf is BMM-Compat
anyways I'm quite happy that I got the help of the wonderful smart and amazing and genuine ejw @exotic shadow and @daring sluice and also very thankful that @dusty token exists because he's amazing and super smart
lovely would literally not exist like it does toway without these amazing people 😭
that is NOT yellow
its a lovely patch shipped with bmm
One time I was told not to post my own art after someone already did post theirs, I said something along the lines of “everybody gets to have compliments but what about me?”
And the. Somebody said to me “People like you don’t deserve to draw ever” or something like that and I got banned off the server.
it runs shit every frame to check compatibility
it's more yellow than orange and brighter than gold
There are some issues with the BMM currently, IIRC. I'd also repost your question in #⚙・modding-support in case it'd get drowned in the chatter here!
they were just an ass and you shouldnt internalize their crap as gospel
probably rhe direct opposite of the color of money
so white
anyways evgast do you want more infodump on balatrostuck in dms
cheers mate
Sure lmao
I
why are the models fucking
Fucking WHAT
Uh…
oh same, what do yours look like
i cant post because gifs
just a screenshot will be fine
are u copying me /j
holy shit I can't overstate how much I love your 3d renderer
oh, now I'm curious if there's update on that shooter project you were working on, mf
you can send gifs just not tenor links
I was about to fucking relapse.
also tenor (api) is dying anyway
no need to apologize either, no worries
I have a tendency to fall into madness at night.
It’s just like that.
That being said, I am a bit jealous at everybody who can do art better than me.
same
Sometimes to the point of ||resentment|| but not in the Balatro community, everybody here is low-key chill as fuck.
just make sure you're jealous enough to motivate yourself, and not jealous enough to feel bad about the stuff you do make 😛
im going to be honest it is really quite simple
recognizing that is a good step towards confronting that feeling
exactly 😭
confront?
oh, btw, is there a balatrostuck thread? My search function is not showing anything, so I need to beg for a link like a loser
thanks!
Can you tell me if my Lapis Joker is kino or mediocre at best? Be honest, super honest.
guess youre balatro stuck on that
I think the search function is busted for me, at least in the forum
oh
Busted
the search function on discord threads just fucking sucks
Like the buffoons
the entire forum feature is so underbaked
it wont find anything that isnt like exactly what you typed
I've been burned hard about my own art long ago... back then, I actually felt motivated to try drawing. Shame the person that sparked said motivation ghosted me and snuffed the flame out. Such is why I just mash things together instead where possible.
why doesn't it autofill when i try to link a channel that's been inactive
unironically its easier to use the popup from typing # as a search tool lol
The style you're working with for TOGAs is very fun, Ali, so it worked out 😛
Ghosted you?
Actually don’t tell me anything about them, I don’t want to mess with your life.
it only actually shows things if you type a full, real word (in which case itll show you stuff that contains that word) or if you exactly type a word in the title of a post
My Kino art style is mostly based on me being into pokémon pixel art when I was a teen and then not improving for the last decade of my life, so I just internalized a bunch of shortcuts
Also, I wish I could pin a forum thread to always be on top. I really prefer my own mod to be the top one, but I just have to unfollow and follow it again whenever I follow a new thread
idk my artstyle is i think based on paper mario y
I drew Ruby.
Did you contribute to Pokermon?
Even in my case, some stuff I "conceptualize" ends being redone - this is what the Sealing Around Spectral would've resembled initially before being processed to the Balatro palette.
woa,,
is it possible to turn the background off in tangents
At the end of the day, much like https://mb.srb2.org/addons/windows-the-computer.3327/ , https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1307810407389593630 exists just because I can put new stuff in, regardless if popular or not. 😅
Having been made in Kart first, Windows is now here to compute through the game that started it all, sharing the same look and all, as well as bringing a mechanic or two over.
Note: This character is more of a standard platformer type than most...
lmao
😭⁉️
i think nxkoo was working on adding a config for it
dropping my art here too
i tried and stuff
my plan for all art that I'm not happy with in Kino is for the wheel of mods to land on it and then use that boost in popularity to bully someone who can draw faces into drawing a proper thanos for me
this is the book move for finding an artist actually
amazing
im jealous of thoise who can do art
I wonder if I should just get rid of my mod altogether simply because it requires talisman and cryptlib
thats not a good reason
why get rid of it? You can just decide its finished and start a new project, too
yeah
if you want to do something non-cryptid based
The project is not finished.
maybe overhaul it so its not a cryptid based mod or something
30 Common, 30 Uncommon, 30 Rare, 30 Dreamy, 15 Fantastic, 15 Grandiose, and 15 Secret.
May be easier said than done if the effects are specifically intended-
Ascension Power, Value Manipulation, Higher Operators, the like
also fixed rarity numbers dont matter as much if they're being added to a pool
As much as I think it's good to not abandon something, also no reason to adhere to earlier ideas, just because they came first
Strict 5 or 0 rule, number of jokers and such must end with 5 or 0.
Excluding crossmod
wtf is a strict rule
a rule they don't wanna break
the reason balatrostuck took us so long to get to the finish line is because of burnouts caused by not knowing what to do with joker space
design philosiphy in different terms
You must comply.

sorry i worded my statement wrong
> uses machine code
> gets a glitched anomaly 46
> 1 in 16.9 chance to get a negative legendary
> wins the roll immediately
i may be the luckiest guy alive
burnouts are bad you should try avoiding burnout
also i feel like if u try to meet a certain number of jokers the jokers wont feel as high quality
I think if you're making a mod for fun, there's no reason to pre-emptively decide how large it should be. Though there's something to be said for using a multiple of 15 for collection page reasons 😛
though that doesnt matter for individual rarities
you could have 18 commons and 12 uncommons
But imho, and I'm saying this in the sense that I also realized I don't really understand the nuances of game design for a game like this, I don't think most people here really know which numbers make sense for joker totals and jokers at each rarity. Nor what role they play in the game's spawn pools
Idk, I always felt like the more the merrier in how many you have.
i like your silly guys
how does that relate to fern tho
it's gonna sound hypocritical because I am aiming to release Kino 1.0 with 375 jokers, but I've definitely realized that having a lot of jokers isn't a boon to a mod
it's similar to Leafy's ability, but different
fair enough, whawt is leafys ability
same with Beach Ball + Bubble
A mod can have 1000 of Jokers... but if they all are just copies of Jimbo, then what worth is it?
You can dilute spawn pools, ruin mechanical synergies that way, have a lot of filler content, etc. It's a lot harder to design around.
Damn, I wish I got compliments.
Balatrostuck 1.0 released with 120 jokers, 13 Zodiacs, 13 Aspects, 5 spectrals and 4 decks
its a miracle it worked
did they make a new show or something? or is this a fan show
Earn $2 for each unused hand at the end of the round
yea they made a new one
it's the new Season 6 ^^
Banner
Aspects are awesome btw
It's part of why I'm making a way to disable huge parts of Kino content easily, for the final release, because I kinda regret putting everything into a single mod due to the bloat
So what, leave all the Common and Uncommon Jokers behind? (Cause I already have rare and dreamy jokers implemented)
pretty!
And it's the millionth time it's been brought up, mostly by me, but especially commons are something mods mostly don't need. Commons are hard to design, and make as useful as they're interesting, and serve a way bigger role in the game's design than most mods assume
relying on Banner to "fix" breaking pools isn't ideal
(I've been reworking so many commons to make Kino more playable)
-# Wait then what is the basic purpose of my mod?
I've been running Mind and Void sooo much
I forgot the - in the -#
the basic purpose of my mod is to make you get a headache
jokerdisplay
the basic purpose of balatrostuck is to trick you into reading homestuck
The basic purpose of my mod is Jen’s Almanac 2.
TooManyJokers is you play a lot of mods and want to quickly check what a joker does. JokerDisplay is also pretty chill
the basic purpose of opalstuff is 
ty just installed
I’m Guessing Atleast Jen’s Almanac doesn’t ruin immersion because it doesn’t flood your shop with useless fucking jokers.
why do you like general is dumping ground for my disfunctional code that most likely wont work
makes you think
no not really
Banner requires players to basically design the pool of jokers themselves, which is not fun to do if you don't know how these new jokers play and interact. And if you want to change something, you need to redo the set up. Sharing a set up is also not really possible. That's why I'm making a system that hopefully does most of that for you. Though I keep postponing working on it because I'm stuck on UI stuff, haha
design the pool of jokers .....
take your time with playsets theres no rush
Also, with MF talking about wanting to do a cube, I'd also love to be able to add custom rules to a set like that, as far as joker slots, ante scaling etc. goes
Yea my mod isn’t gonna go that far ever, I made so many terrible design decisions, it’s getting really hard to consider my choices with the mod.
the goal of Balatrostuck commons is to add more options for rigging runs because Balatrostuck adds the funny Scorpio card that blows all idea of probability out of the water
I can never reach the big leagues cro…
We had to literally turn probabilities into a mechanic that only cares about the probability number
So that probabilities can matter again
Wheel of Fortune procs are now guaranteed if you play like a level 2 scorpio pair of 8s and win with it
people love messing with probability for their mods, haha. You definitely have to add a lot of new content to be able to do anything interesting with it, though
oh yeah we have been doing some wacky shit with it
I know for JoyousSpring, N made a lot of probabilities work on a x out 100 scale just so there's more granularity for effects
yea i feel that
-# I’m dipping from this conversation, nobody seems interested.
like this bastard
i am ig
the green dollar is log2 of probability
it should probably say that
so each time a probability doubles, this goes up by 1
You like it a bit too much.
its funnier if its just green
??? what does that mean
All you really want is to be in a mod.
You’re in two mods, that’s a big privilege already.
um
Ok I really should dip from this conversation.
Cause nobody really cares about Cryptid or pwx related bullshit atm.
-# nor will they ever.
this card is almost too good to be a common because we added like a lot of paradox generators
changing 1 in 4s to be like 5 in 20 was funny
Potassium: RemaKe.
We also have a card that creates a non-paradox for every paradox you create
vodka?!
imagine naming ur kid vodka lol
cryogenically preserved
man I really need to find a better way to display those legendary quests because every time I try and read them in game my eyes hurt
i see
paradox clone
quite intriguing
bro what is balatro even about anymore
movies, mostly
so if it disappears nothing happens seems kinda pointless to me
Are they supposed to mostly just be tokens for other cards to interact with?
Oh wait it's an edition
oh wait its an edition
seems a bit useless
That's a fun idea. I've got a similar concept that I ended up not using because I didn't have enough design ideas for it, but you can do a lot of fun stuff with something like that. Does it also spawn naturally?
idk i feel like that should be a sticker rather than an edition
paradox cards can spawn naturally yes! we have a whole deck for it
I like the edition as a very clear signifier, honestly, and as an edition it's also available to playing cards and jokers
that's the idea!
@deft ore
wait its available to playing cards??
so its kinda a worse blueprint
how would "playing cards" not take any space
hand size
oh
Does a paradox copy also take gathered stacks with it?
id assume it would work like tech blinds from blindside
it's a better blueprint actually if you have vodka mutini or biscuits
what does the deck do
thats how negative playing cards work
well you can copy more than with blueprint
its like a wierd invis and blueprint hybrid
I had an 'Ethereal Counter' idea for Kino which would destroy a card or joker when it's removed at the end of round, so I could create temporary cards and jokers, but I didn't enjoy the play pattern I'd made around it, so I never ended up using them. This seems like a more fun implementation for that concept
I do still need to look into this joker token idea I had and see how I'd display that
this is all i need
Biscuits is an evil card we had to hide him in a super rare standard pack spectral
chat i lowkey need to get back into balatro modding
WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT BLUEPRINT 😭
its the old blueprint fron cryptid
WHAT HAS HE SEEN
common, 1 in 6 to be destroyed
old blueprint from cryptid
literally just nerfed blueprint
@full edge if you want i can infodump to you about paradox cards i ndms
"nerfed"
they are insanely well supported
also its 1 in 4 to be destroyed
Gladly some other time, but I've never played with balatrostuck before so I think I'd just wanna mess aroudn with them first, and see what I can discover for how they play myself, haha
its an amazing seal for consistency
basically, if you draw a card with felt seal, you draw two of that card actually
without increasing your deck size permamently
Oh yeah, that sounds like it'd go crazy. Also immediately the obvious Biscuits combo that will just deckfix like crazy
slimy hell how many paradox generators are there
so many
nvm necromancer flame build goes hard
Is felt made out of slime in homestuck?
slime??:3
i thought paradox cards had a slimy appearance
I have one of the coolest names for a joker but no idea what it's effect should be
who is tied to time paradoxes
Because I would have no clue how they're conceptually related otherwise, haha. I assume the paradox ones look like slimer for reasons
Sinister Fountain
and causality
+10 Mult -1 Mult every round or smth idk its like a reverse fountain
also some more paradox generation
When a hand is played, destroy all consumables and create consumables equal to the amount destroyed
damn, that's definitely quite a supported archetype, haha
These sprites are so awesome
But temporary cards are a very fun tool to design around. Probably the reason like half of every MTG card creates tokens, these days, haha
paradox is a cool edition
now you can see a very terrifying engine here
thank you! i did a lot of it
from what i posted only frog breeding was made by a friend
bro how do people art
judging it rn
im absolute ahh at art
there's also this joker that my friend drew that has an effect i love because of how fucking wack it is
idk man
for the monopoly cards i straight up copied them
basically it completely nukes your Jokers
worse than Madness
but it also gives X1.2^number of paradox cards XMult
how many jokers are there
120
yeah! a lot of them are there to support systems like Zodiacs, Aspects, Paradox cards
ooh makes sense
Zodiacs are also very well supported!
i one day want to make a mod that isnt just for like my friends
i want to make a mod with actually good art
otherwise no one will play it
Balatrostuck is pretty sweet
HELL YES
Ok
Ok
Ok
On the other hand, literally every youtube video ever made about Kino either turned off my improved art, or was made before it existed. Somehow, it seems my art overhaul has lead to less players 😛
PERHAPS i will play balatrostuck when i get home
hmm
Home... truck?
Ive been kind of on my own personal homestuck renaissance
alr ima try balatrostuck
-# currently trying to design a sburb ttrpg (very slowly)
aikoshen mostly solo apart from sone art i asked around
I've not given those a proper look, haha. Been kinda half following the conversation while I'm finishing up the effects for the final legendaries I need to make
wait is balatrostuck like balanced for vanilla or is it like cryptid levels of unbalanced
the reason there's unscored card synergy is of course because Splash implies unscoringness relates to wetness or dryness, therefor any movie that cares about water or wetness in any way cares about unscoring cards
oooh
it's both
oh
the brokenness comes from building engines
its not just given to you as a single effect
instead there's a lot of intended synergies and breaks
that you can discover
i really like mods that don't make the first 8 antes really easy but do make endless mode a lot more interesting
then there's the deck that kind of acts as a victory lap, frog deck
it lets you start with 3 levels in any Aspect you want
-# Different Frog Deck-
which means you get a really big boost
play Kino, where beating white stake is harder than vanilla but reaching ante 32 is way way easier 🥲
if thats what balatrostuck is then count me interested
maybe my mod isn't as good as they say it is
+3 joker slots
no its good
X1.9 mult for every consumable
my favorite is Frog Deck with Mind - for each tag you create 3 copies of it
i remember when frog deck’s unlock req was beating every challenge
There's a constant urge within me to disable being able to earn stake stickers for jokers on specific very strong decks
there's also the torture deck
sick art, yet again
Huge
6 hands and 6 discards really saves ante 1 from certain doom
please let me out of the basement
this is one of my favorite jokers - it costs $25, doubles blind requirement, destroys itself on proc, and lets you pick any of the 12 aspects
You are not Toby Fox, and none of us wants to be called Andrew Hussie
Okay sorry for that one
What are some mods yall recommend? (im not trying to change the base game just some QoL mods, i added handy, saturn and "more speed")
handy is a big one
handy replaces more speed
and you don't need anything else
Handy's the big one, for QoL. I'd look into the additional features it has, because it does more for QoL than you suspect it does
jokerdisplay if you are into the slight amount of precalculation it has
Galdur is a must have
evgast how goes balatrostucking
what does that do?
i saw you were rocking that capricorn build
Ante 7 and only now I'm allowed to upgrade my hand (ignore socks)
oh nice you got doom
Overhauls the run start menu (i.e. selecting deck) to be way nicer
alright, thanks guys
doom is such a funny aspect
at first you think it's ass then you realize its broken as fuck
also i am eagerly awaiting you realizing act progression is a thing
and realizing you need to complete a cavendish chain of 6 jokers
that's hilarious actually
Galdur's one of those mods I sometimes forget isn't base game. It's such an immense improvement
Did I somehow skip ante 6 intermissions
whats that consumable brodie
Zodiac Virgo
Taht I keep just to clear zodiac pools
balatrostuck
Uhhh planets but for ranks with different effects
ur awesome
homestuck bomectuck
yes!
Huge
I think I finally reached relapse.
!!!
I almost fucked myself up over The Mouth blind that would be so funny
what does he Do
oh no
wait if a debuffed card has the felt seal and you discard it it still works
is that a bug or
Solution: Shenaniganstuck
if you think you found a bug pop it in the issues regardless
