no problem
thaaanks
it gives no money and can only be summoned with a consumable
or something
I already got the blind change half working
idea: temporarily remove 2/3 of your deck so it's easy to run out of cards and lose
That’s a good idea
I had this (bad) idea during the demo: The Root https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1170704202025152585
average blind
the Blind Blind
Chip requirement: 2x - 4x base
Chip requirement, number of hands, and number of discards are hidden
good one
teaser time
actually lemme convert to an mp4
there we go
ignore the card graphic its a placeholder
im guessing there is no way to have a custom blind to behave like small and big blind?
i will propably do it myself but :
The Inverted : [suit] cards are buffed
if these are naturally occuring itd be sick
Yeah, they would happen like any boss blind
Except tiny blind
no i mean not like boss blinds but a different blind over small and medium
like big blind over small
or club blind over big that either buffs or debuffs clubs
literally blind: the whole screen is just black
That would be the hardest blind i think
I meant it as a joke lol
If that were to somehow actually be put in the game, the blind requirement should only be like 0.1x or something
or make it so theres a small bit of light around ur mouse
final boss lol
nevermind
whats the SM api function to add blind functionality???????
All "type of card transcended significantly by your Jokers" are debuffed blinds
Might as well be just all cards are debuffed and there's nothing you can do to win anymore
Fold your hand, NOW!
200 Chips
All cards are debuffed
All Jokers are debuffed
how the --- do i add ui elements
Like cardareas or?
nah like a button but not a button
not interactible
i think i'll be able to add cardareas
Do you mean text?
no like a box
oh someone already given the idea lol
maybe a blind which can be like ; score exactly 5000
Blind where you lose if you go over the score, you win if you run out of hands
Duplicator tag: Spawns a free joker that you already have in the shop
Obsidian Spade (final boss blind): All cards are drawn facedown, but the blind requirement is 1x the base rather than the usual 2x
You want memes?
Tag tag tag: Next ante's small and big blind tags become Tag tag
Tag tag: Next played or skipped blind adds two additional random tags
Hmmm… what would be a bad blind… OH! I know! A blind where you have to score EXACTLY the amount of chips shown
(I am so evil 😈)
The Attrition
- Very large blind (6x base, equal to Violet Vessel)
- Double hands and discards
ooh there are ideas here
im doing some stakes rn
first one is 'happy', second is 'joyous', and third is currently unnamed
fire in the hole
Mirthful?
wide
aw it isnt long in game
Idk how Blinds work but see if you can change the size of a single one
Blinds? Did you mean stakes? If not, elaborate
Yes. Stakes
Ooh I was wondering how to do this
it's only in the menu right now
Hmmm still
i mean... that's kind of an improvement
wait, i think the fifth one might be below
for some reason
I think I’m beginning to understand the ui system
I think you can post updates to #💻・modding-dev
Maybe other people could even help
I think itayfeder and whoever made the mod that adds the Pray button have some more knowledge about the UI
The limits of my knowledge are manipulating tooltips poorly and knowing that some UIs have names
I've done some UI things but not that much
didnt cryptid do something similar where a stake removed small blinds
I think adding a scroll bar or pages would be better
So the “long” chain goes like this:
Long stake - Run ends after ante 10 (yes I stole this from cryptid)
Longer stake - Antes last 5 rounds
Desert bus stake - help me come up with an effect that will make runs last 10 hours but hopefully won’t be too obnoxious
There’s also a Gold Bus Stake, take a wild guess at what that does
Whatever Desert Bus does but goldener
Oh this mod is gold
w i d e sticker
skibidi boss blind
- on play/discard whole hand gets discarded and redrawn
- played and discarded cards go back into deck
sigma boss blind
- +5 hand size
- reduce hand size by 1 per scored card
Desert Bus Stake: Boss blinds have a 1 in 20 chance to increase ante ~or~ permanently sets game speed to 0.1
desert bus stake:
- return to ante 1 after every defeated boss, turn 1 selected joker negative and destroy all other non-negative jokers
- defeated bosses stay defeated
- you can only skip once per ante
- reroll prices reset after each defeated boss instead of every shop
that's a lot
uhh i dunno how to word all of that to fit in the stake description
but i like the idea of returning to the beginning with every boss
It's Tag Time!
Ah yes, the Tag Tag Tag
gonna put "nil" as the number on the tarot art once i get ideas for tarots
ok it's 8:30 pm for me so i think i'll take a break
i've been developing the mod pretty much the whole day
you may still post ideas here, of cousre
The Hoarder: Add 5 random (unenchanted, unsealed, base edition) cards to your deck at the start of the blind.
The Trasher: Randomly destroy 5 cards in your deck at the start of the blind.
nice
Cards have stickers like eternal
Imagine rental cards stay in your hand (don’t use a card slot) but cost three to use
Making a new type of consumables - Essence Cards!
The idea is to give jokers extra buffs similar to editions, but they aren't as major and they stack
Ooo that’s fun
Looks don’t matter as much as they play
nah it looks good actually, it's simple
I made the middle a bit lighter, we’ll see how that looks
Well… it works on the basic Jimbo
With the mult
not on most others though
I’ll just make it a separate stat I guess
dead chat alert
i'im just waiting for more updates
;-;
Once you get the more blinds per ante working like it should, I'd be interested in it for something in a less memey mod
I can almost feel the tumbleweed
This project is dead…
Perhaps I’ll return?
I’m not sure.
Make this if you go to ante 0 or below
Balatro is such a moddable game why did I even quit
I actually got the skip tags working too???
It still wins you after the first boss but i think i might have just fixed it
medium blind
this is hard, man
Okay wait
What if I just make a utility mod that allows for this
separate of Bad Balatro Ideas
Is there an easy way to generate lovely patches
Okay I'm going to be making it mostly with lovely because it will involve a lot of patching
the utility mod is coming along well
make another forum post for it because i think i might use it for a mod
-# also will the utility mod have support for overwriting blinds in the list?
Yeah I might once it’s closer to completion
-# yeah it will
But due to how I am doing this it may break some things with existing mods
Actually maybe I just start over and do it differently
Slightly too many violet vessels
Pink triangle seal
Makes the black suit cards gay and the red suit cards lesbian
what these effects do are up to you
Okay the mod is coming along
I have encountered a very weird problem
If I want to add more blinds I have to do it like this but it doesnt allow me to add a flexible amount
If I try adding any more after it just doesnt seem to work for some reason
Okay I may have figured out hte problemo
Yeah it works now!
Time to make it into a lovely patch because Idk why not
I think I might make a separate post for it soon
The yellow trials
Putting some of my own ideas here so I don’t forget
A consumable that makes a card bigger/smaller in size
Actually kind of useful for seeing how far in the deck an important card is
Beaver card rank
Okay the utility mod should be working decently enough to release maybe
Also if you play bad Balatro ideas with cryptid there will be an ascendant bus stake similar to gold bus
just realized cryptid kinda did a similar thing to the more blinds mod
but they didnt make more blinds per ante so
By that I mean that they made it possible to win the ante with a small/big blind
Cause you can make those the final ones in an ante with pointer
I apologize for the lack of updates, I've had internet problems lately
Anyway I'm going to try making some editions
Blind Ideas that might be too difficult to code in I don’t know:
The Hour Glass: Sets the game speed to 0.05, Resets after blind is defeated
The Switch: When encountered, removes the text from the “Play” and “Discard” buttons. The “Play” and “Discard” Button now have a 50% chance to swap positions after playing a hand. This effect is permanent even after defeating this blind.
The Sponser: Playing a hand will give you a 30 second unskipable advertisement. Defeating this blind gives you a + x 30 Second unskipable ad(s) where x is the total amount of Hands and Discards you had left
Well, I guess I lived up to the “Bad Balatro Ideas” by then. XP
What if we turn sponsor into a voucher that adds a mini-shop to a blind where you can buy 1-2 cards
that is actually a good idea
but uhh
yeah sure
That could be kind of funky. I like it. :]
Ctrl R
(Spectral card)
Go back to ante 1
or sorry – are you like taking suggestions another way or for something else like blinds or just jokers?
i think you should replace all blinds with jokers and all jokres with blinds
How
idk it wasnt a serious suggestion
all jokers have to be in alphabetical order or hand wont score
Good boss idea
Are there any notable mods that add suits?
I’m just adding the beaver rank I mentioned earlier and I think it would be nice if I added support for custom suits so those beavers aren’t just blank
there's Paperback and Bunco (probably more but those are the ones i can name off the top of my head)
dopamine joker: +4 mult
the texture is just a entire episode of family guy
or a playthrough of subway surfers
-# (Sigil)
@subtle wolf if you want to add this then dm me cuz i have a script that can convert a video to a joker spritesheet
New deck
Weekend deck - start run with day off and vacation vouchers
-# Only available during the weekend
New blind idea:
Safe Mode
Hands must be the exact same as any hand type example (For example, if hand type is a Straight, the straight must be the exact same as the straight in the hand type examples)
I’m gonna add exponents similar to chips and mult and I’ll shorten them to exp like mult is short for multiplier and then make jokes about leveling
Is this mod available anywhere? I want to make a Joker that builds around adding blinds to an ante 🙏
Not quite yet but I will release it in the future
Got the ui working
Okay chat
I have no idea how to fit more blinds on screen
That is pretty much the last thing I need to fix
scrollable menu? for more blinds
Yeah, that could work
I’d basically have to make scrolling from scratch which seems a bit difficult but I’ll try to figure it out
maybe multiple pages (like in the Jokers Collection)?
are ideas and suggestions still welcome?
Yeah
At this point I most likely won’t add whatever people suggest unless multiple people really want it or I like the idea
Okay I have an idea for a joker effect: all face cards are considered every face card rank in your deck
This allows for some cursed hands containing both a full house and five of a kind
Which will probably be a new hand
And straights can also fall into that category if you have pareidolia
I can’t wait for
Straight Flush Five House
Or
Straight Spectrum Five House
or even
Straight Spectrum Flush Five House
if you have them as wildcards
It’s a strange debate though
Or maybe I won’t be doing that because I’m unsure how
Bad Balatro Ideas - A mod with, you guessed it, bad Balatro ideas
Okay apparently someone already did this so yeah guess that’s scrapped
I’m adding more horse race tests horses
Once I get home
Door knob will have an effect related to losing power the longer you stay in a blind to reference the 21 second sweep in hrtthrt
Polishing up the more blinds per ante mod
Okay I did it
https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1373686719710236753 if you’re interested
We need a Pokemon TCG mod which adds the pokemon trading cards as jokers and a unique deck with only those jokers that has the pokemon tc card backs
Please consider filling out this survey to help me determine which things are purple and which ones are not
four blinds
Yep
Made a whole thing for this
idea: stake above gold stake that has no actual gameplay changes but posts your lat/long in the #🎙・server-chat channel if you lose
new idea
Joker effect - add a random edition to leftmost scoring card on final hand of round
consumable card ideas - crops and rocks
Joker effect - create a random tag for every 2 jokers sold
Increases by 1 at end of round
And yes of course it can be eternal
New joker idea
Retrigger joker to the right X times and lose all retriggers
Gain 1 retrigger per hand played if this is the rightmost joker
Dark Matter (Planet card) - level down all poker hands
Deck: Start run with a negative astronomer, all poker hands start from level -3
Joker - 1.5X Mult compounding for level of played poker hand below 1
New idea - 2X Mult for each $ below 0
man
