#[ALPHA] MOAR Jokers - What if jokers, but more of them?
1 messages · Page 3 of 1
shocking, i know
something i’d like to add is a stake above gold, its an idea i’ve had for a little while:
Fools Gold stake: Booster packs cost 0.5$ per ante
-# yes it is just nerfed old orange stake
something else i’d like to start working on is other enhancements - copper is still on my mind but i have no idea how to implement it
and statue enhancements, which should be easy? maybe?
just need to make it take away chips from stone cards, then add a check if stone card is at a specific chip amount, and then make it change its enhancement type
i dont think enhancements support retriggers, i've got the code for copper cards working(?), but it just will not retrigger
(and doesnt even work if context.repetition is included)
had a random idea, what about an enhancement that gives both played and in-hand mult? im not sure what i'd make the graphics, but essenitally it'd be a reference to uno flip
heres a joker for it, which i think i'll make the main way of getting Flipside cards
Flipside 🤨
Imo it looks too curved, It should be like a straight peel ykwim
yeah i got told that and yeah, its way too curvy
this might actually be addable now, although i think it'd be miles upon miles easier to make it so that copper cards get the buff
-# although the original idea is 10x cooler
ham sandwich :)
ham sanwich :]
i did have another idea though:
Faulty Wire: 1/4 chance for a copper card to retrigger twice when being socred
1/12 chance for the copper card to be destroyed after hand played
hrm, so, gonna catalogue more ideas like i did last time:
• Electrician: If first hand in a round contains a pair, turn cards played into copper cards
• Faulty Wire: 1/4 chance for a copper card to retrigger once again
1/12 for copper cards to be destroyed after hand played
• Ham Sandwich: Non-copper cards played between copper cards give 1.5X mult
• Transference (Tarot): Turn 2 cards into Copper cards
• Flipsided enhancement: # mult when played, # mult when kept in hand
-# need to figure out numbers to make both numbers useful
• Jimbo Flip/Bent Joker: 1/2 chance to change a card played into a Flipsided card
• Overturn (Spectral): Turn one card into a Flipsided card
• Invert (Spectral): Turn a random playing card negative, destroy another random card
i really like the idea of negative playing cards, but im just not sure what to do with it
i think invert would be better off if it had a 50% chance to destroy the played card and a 50% chance to make it negative
a random joker is something but
a random playing card is just
so much worse
honestly thats fair enough, i like that idea more too
immolate is like half useless because its random
-# its random for a good reason though
also, random idea since i’ve been working on the ripoff uno-flip idea, a ripoff jimbo:
Jester: &4+ chips
i’ll change the colours of jimbo and change the words to Jester instead of Joker
Kid named Joey J. jester:
kid named “familiar mage”:
also, to finally add the &chips joker thats been sitting in my head for ages:
Three-Sided Joker: If the first hand of a round contains a 3, gain +&1 chips
(starts at 0)
.
.
Copper Joker - Gains 1$+ for every 2 copper cards in your full deck
-# i thought about doing something with retriggers, like gain 1+ retrigger for every 5 copper cards or something but ehgh
okay, so, the idea of a “ship of theseus” joker has been sitting inside of my head for a while now, and i finally got an actual idea for it:
Ship of Theseus: If a joker is sold, gain all that jokers effects
however, this gives me the chance to do the funniest thing ever
add multiple ship of theseus jokers, all with the same names
they just all have different sprites and do different things
(if you’ve ever heard of chonny jash, you might know what im getting at)
Termina now actually works and exists, its a little buggy (it deletes itself and another card, but there seems to be an issue with it where it just spams a noise and then deletes itself)
does this stack? Can it hold the effects of multiple jokers?
only one, i learnt my lesson from attempting to reason my Portfolio joker idea
you sell a new joker, it overwrites the old effects and replaces it with the new ones
Ah ok
What’s the point tho
😭🙏
if you’re selling a joker you don’t need it anymore and the ship is just taking up a slot otherwise
It’s a zero-sum benefit
it could have some interesting synergies, with luck you can essenitally have two of the same joker
i honestly cant think of anything else rn, its 1am 😭
im sure someone could come up with a weird way to make it insanely good
i definitely think this is a good direction
maybe it could be the last 2 jokers sold while this joker is held instead of just the last one
(and then throw -1 hand size just so it isn't a free joker slot)
that could work tbh, i think i can convince myself that having it be 2 jokers is theseus-es enough
i just need 3 more ideas.. hrmmmm
they could also all have some downside to make this ones specifically fit more with the rest, you can probably explain it by saying that "you know its not really the same"
-# this makes sense to me, its 5am
hrmm... what if... calendar joker
the idea i currently have is that every blind, you'd get a different thing
so for small blinds you'd get money, big you'd get mult, boss you'd get chips or something of the sort
maybe the effects could be randomized every ante?
you could get:
- money
- mult
- chips
- xmult
- retriggers
maybe i could even randomize how much you'd get aswell, but i dread to imagine the code for it
each boss blind gives the joker a different effect /j
it takes the effect from the boss blind, fuck you /s
Some random legendary ideas, i'd like to add 5 actual ones and then a 6th one, 
Sommers (Will Sommers) - Every card gains a permanent 0.1X mult when scored
Mathurine (Mathurine de Vallois) - Gives the lowest card in hand as Xmult
Archy (Archibald 'Archy' Armstrong) - Gives 5$ for every joker currently owned (?)
Hudson (Jeffery Hudson) - Gains 1+ retrigger if the current blind is completed in one hand
Jimbo - Gains 0.4X for every joker bought or sold
&4 chips 😭🙏
i just realised
i've officially added sigma into my mod
the sigma symbol is a symbol of summation
its actually 10 chips, get it right
smh
im such a good mooder
Factorials but adding 😎
exactly
hrm
i've been kinda lamenting over the xmult joker set and i have an idea, i might get rid of all the jokers that are currently covered by the The X series
so pair, 3oak, 4oak, straight and flush
on one hand, more variation on hand jokers is cool, but having 2 xmult hand jokers feels eh?
-# idk
Chip Off The Block - Gains +&1 chip for every card destroyed
also, another random idea (because i dont have enough of those lying around) - essenitally an upgraded version of Jimbos Burger, it'd give &chips and Xmult, and lose an amount every hand
it'd only be obtainable after letting Jimbos Burger destory itself, ofc
That’d be op asl 😭🙏
Because eventually you’ll be getting like +20 chips per card destroyed
you make a good point 😭 i couldnt even get it to work anyway
if i used both destroying card contexts, it'd just trigger no matter what
if i only used glass's context, it would never trigger
Re-run(?) - If hand played is [random hand], retrigger all cards played twice
make a bunch of burger ingredients you can sell to put into the burger to increase its lifespan and give it additional effects
lmao
thats similar to the idea i had about the Omelette, 5 or so jokers that work really well together
it’d be 5 active ingredients in an omelette (it was something like butter, yolk, salt, cheese, etc)
The Toot

huzzah!! copper is now possible with calc 2.0!
-# calc 2.0 broke a lot of stuff but its fine
Just here to say that I love White Onion
I dedicated my whole life (ante) to him. He is my son now.
that's some good specificity on not allowing wilds to be counted lol
honestly scaling it is not that hard
and even getting 1-2 retriggers is already insanely good with most jokers
Yeah the card’s absolutely broken it’s just the specifity was nice lol
ty ty, i also love white onion
i love the idea its just hellish to balance
-# maybe i should return again
Dude this looks so awesome
The art and jokers my guy or girl, or perhaps alien overlord who shall not by labeled by humans genders
i got confused at the ping more then anything, but ty dude 💜
