but yeah if u don't mind sticking with passives and >q4 actives that's what i was planning on rn
#The Binding Of Jimbo
zenith smelt
changing q4 sprites is later down the line for me honestly on my list of priorities
good news ur sprites are good
harsh shard
thank god (i had no clue how I was gonna draw a half decent looking d20)
zenith smelt
if u think u could do lump of coal that's one that rlly needs a texture
but yeah i do like these a bit but i kinda want to revert them back to the q4 textures
also bc holy shit i spent so long on the typography on these q4 ones
the mod is very scuffed
oh yeah btw no new items for a while
next on my list is um. making pills work
which they um
do
i need to figure out how to save the array though of which pills are which
which means i need custom save data
harsh shard
here's what I have (i feel like fully filling in the lump will work better as it's a mostly "dark" item rather then an outline)
zenith smelt
oh this is really good
i might add some extra shiny shaders or something depending on rarity or something
like a tint shader for rarity ig?
yeahhh no this is awesome thank youuuu
ok imma head off to eeeeeppp
btw if ur curious what else there is:
iv bag, battery, cursed eye, polyphemus
oh and brimstone
if you want to try those
actually i can handle brimstone
rugged flower
Oh yeah definitely

Agreed

Curse of the blind : jokers are face down when in the shop or packs
This one’s good
harsh shard
I feel like curse of the lost works for boss blind because it means you can’t properly set up for it

this is true but also like. i think that tags works well as well
sooo d6 and ed6 are gonna be done today
just realized that cryptid DOES have the code to select other jokers with the joker if its doublesided
so i just need to reference the code that makes that work (only if it's ed6 or d6 joker) and hypothetically it'll work?
zenith smelt
d6 will be done within the next 4-5 hours
zenith smelt
give me 10 minutes we're almost there
the selection part works so the part that's left right now is the functionality
which will be easy
it should be ready
zenith smelt
store credit consumeable actually
and maybe increase the amount of money per round
that's next
zenith smelt
sooo i'm playtesting
very balanced mod
just saying cursed eye + lump is insane already, hanging chad + cursed eye + lump + blueprint will destroy ur game
cursed eye isn't blueprint compat yet, but i'm working on it
zenith smelt
hehe
find out
have the fun of original isaac
the discovery is lioke. the best part
why would i spoil the fun by telling you what everything does
hollow jewel
bc idk
imma just look at the code
nvm still dont understand shit eh ill find out if i ever get em
zenith smelt
nvm still dont understand shit eh ill find out if i ever get em
They do what they do in isaac translated to balatro if that helps
So if you’ve played isaac, it helps
harsh shard
the battery real
zenith smelt
ok so lowk chat we are going to start a server for jimbo
i know the community for this mod is niche but i think that i need to move to a server for organization reasons
harsh shard
ok
harsh shard
lmk when you make it @zenith smelt
zenith smelt
anyway hi chat
i made a logo lol
proud of this one ngl
i popped the hell off
i had like a few ideas in my head but nothing was as good as "take the card from the icon online, shrink it to pixel size, and then add the angel wings from isaac onto them
works really fucking well
then i found the afterbirth+ gradient and used that one
and added a backdrop
ngl it looks REALLY fucking nice in my server directory
it's about damn time, too
also @hollow jewel to be fair, since they are adding INTERNAL ITEM DESCRIPTIONS to isaac with the next rep+ update, i'll do you a favor and under the text that says whatever stake you won with a joker card it'll add a description of what it does
i just got rid of them honestly because i thought it'd be more fun to discover what the cards do instead of knowing immediately
zenith smelt
@harsh shard
To all people who are watching development/interacting with dev for this mod, all future conversation and development will happen in this server
Apologies for the inconvenience, it is for better organization reasons
uh that'd be @hollow jewel @nova tusk @winged gull @fierce bear @rugged flower @tired brook @merry lance @burnt atlas and @simple ivy i think are the ones i've seen in chat
just a heads up if you wanted to keep getting updates. sorry for the ping lol
tired brook
sweet
zenith smelt
yep! sorry for the ping, just thought i'd notify you all that we're moving discussion
i'll keep major updates in here but i'm not going to be checking in here for discussion/recommendations anymore past this point :p
rugged flower
uh that'd be <@1189890787597619220> <@571391021053771776> <@1085312883677728919>...
Will do

MAJOR UPDATE: added Isaac deck, battery texture, Eternal D6, and D6

nova tusk
honestly yea
zenith smelt
github needs to be more intuitive or someone has to pin that.
The main link now just gives you the zip that that download button gives
And it stays up to date
frozen vale
It's still not very intuitive
zenith smelt
You…. Press a button?
You press a link and download it to steamodded
I didn’t make steamodded
If you have a problem complain to steamo, i don’t see how this has virtually anything to do with me
My server doesn’t get zip files, they have to download it from the same top link
hollow jewel
it aint even steammodded its just github lol
zenith smelt
What’s even bad about it??? The link that’s pinned now literally does all of the work for you
It LITERALLY downloads the zip
hollow jewel
crazy lmao i didnt even know
zenith smelt
the one that i replaced it with yeah
i mean hell i'm working on a website right now as well for the project but like
this is the bottom of my goddamn priorities if you can't click a link to download a zip file you should learn how to use a comptuer. it's not like i'm erica github, i didn't create this shit. blame the linux guy, he invented git like 30 years ago.
I've updated this mod and the repository to be more readable, which includes new logo and a more comprehensive readme with a download link. Releases are not going to be available until much further along in the development (~15-20 jokers that have been fully tested and completed)

I literally changed the link to the download link for the zip file at the top of the thread
That’s what i was saying
Also i likely have WORSE adhd and autism and bpd than you, not that it’s a competition
zenith smelt
Well now i added a readme with the link on the repo
I was literally already doing it today 😭
If you had waited like 4-5 hours i would’ve done it
I was waiting to have time to make the logo and stuff lol
Hopefully you have fun
zenith smelt
I hope not
Hopefully you have fun! Also if you downloaded lts don’t use lost deck yet or use holy mantle on plasma it’ll break lol
I’m still fixing holy mantle 😅
It wasn’t really um. Easy to make apparently
Sounded easier in my head
Anyway i gotta go shower
Sorry if i sounded passive agressive at any point btw I’m happy to help
😭😭😭
I was just like. I think you missed when i said that i had changed it to just a link to download the zip file itself at the top of the thread so i was confused
frozen vale
it's fine, im autistic anyway so i might i have also missed some unnecessary social ques that happen sometimes.
zenith smelt
Me too
Trust me
I have so many diagnosises i can’t count them on both of my hands
nova tusk
i’m not diagnosed yet (turns out the psychiatrists are busy around the holidays) but i’m like 99% sure i have adhd and 60-70% sure i have autism (or similar) so yea
(also sorry if i came off as passive aggressive in my comments it’s just that it was easier to screenshot the convo i’d already had)
zenith smelt
Due to a LOT of people asking, yes, i am adding item descriptions
however, i will NOT be adding any for gfuel simply because I can't with the space given
it would literally be so big it would break the card ui LMFAO
zenith smelt
NEW JIMBO UPDATE!!!
Download it below:
https://github.com/h3llo-wor1d/the-binding-of-jimbo
Changelist:
- Added global probabilities to ED6 and IV Bag, which are influenced by Oops All 6es
- Added item descriptions for (almost) everything <- I will get to cursed eye later and gfuel is too long to describe LMFAO
- Minor bugfixes and optimizations
- Began work on adding devil/angel deal mechanics in the form of packs
The packs are not in the repo yet because they aren't completed. The art is there, but it's in very early stages.
I am shooting for tomorrow night being the deadline for pack mechanics to be implemented.
That being said, they are going to basically be like if i took the complications behind the code packs from cryptid and put that on meth 💀
nova tusk
so i guess we're the only mod with a custom website lmfao
more fluff has one too
mighty herald
so deos reverie

No github link on site? 
Weird

i keep running into this crash
zenith smelt
No github link on site? <:a_:1109202596725543014>
Weird
i need to update it actually
sorry
i keep forgetting to do that
both the website itself and the mod are open source i'm just really bad at remembering to get stuff done
been really sick this week so work's been slower
zenith smelt
i keep running into this crash
weird
was pretty sure i just fixed that
oh damn did i not push that from my desktop
fucking oops
my bad
wait no yeah
wait
you shouldn't be getting this
i'd update the mod
i knew about this error so i changed the if/else to a pcall anyway, so this error shouldn't be there
i like explicitly made sure that it worked before pushing lol
i can double check though
yeah iunno should work
anyway thanks for the reminder @agile kelp i'm gonna update the site rq
i meant to change the buttons to be a links anyway so that u can see where they go lol
wait it should actually be working hmmm
istg i use a links for everything but the download button bc i was too lazy to style a href thing
ok well anyway, the site now clarifies where to find the source for both the site itself and the mod
it'll take around ~5 minutes to update on aws' end but i promise it'll be there
i added it to the footer
👍

Rock bottom idea
Legendary joker
Makes it and all other jokers you currently have eternal and negative
Maybe it comes with a downside, but that doesn't feel right
fluid brook
maybe like "takes all the effects of bought jokers for itself" since that makes more sense for rock bottom tbh
that way you can still lose stuff but not the stats
(ie, tainted isaac would lose stats if he gave away match stick, but not if he had rock bottom)
shy hearth
A lot of the stuff added has missing textures for me
nova tusk
or maybe “you can’t score below the highest amount of chips/mult youve scored since you got this joker”

hello!!! version 3 is out now!
least changes since the last update, but that's ok, since it paved the way for SO many more changes a lot faster
Biggest changes:
- Added devil/angel mechanics (note: there is not currently a way to tell your chance, but tl:dr, after completing your first boss blind, there is a 100% chance for a $14 devil pack (which will include downsides in 0.4a such as perma hand size, hands, and discards down), and if you don't buy it in the shop, there will be a 15% chance for an angel pack on the next shop. Of course, there is only 1 angel item atm, but i'm adding significantly more soon, and this was ASS to program.
- Brimstone, Holy Mantle, A Quarter, and A Lump of Coal have been removed from the standard joker pool and can only be pulled from these new packs, and in the future, from other special exceptions
- Removed the lost deck because i'm fucking lazy. I will be re-implementing it as a stake in the next version.
- Began work on Core Library, which included an ActiveJoker function i made for myself so i don't fucking have to fill up my screen with a bunch of bullshit every time i want to make one
- Fixed the DAY FUCKING 1 visual bug with charge bars, which are now drawn correctly
There's probably more that i'm forgetting, let me know! If you have any bug reports (which you shoooouldn't...) for this new version, you can let me know in the bug reporting channel on our discord
As always, you can download LTS (and join our community) at https://jimbo.hyperpup.pet/
Sorry updates have been slow, as I've mentioned before, I just started uni and i've barely had ANY time to work on anything, but i'm planning on getting around 5-10 jokers done by the end of the day tomorrow if i can ❤️

Hello! development has restarted for this mod starting with rock bottom
sorry i haven't been super active working on this, college has been beating my ass
thank you to everyone who has enjoyed the mod thus far, and i hope you continue to place your faith in me for the future.
zenith smelt
hello rock bottom exists and is functioning
right now it's limited to just probability, i'm going to finish the rest of it right now
literally this was the hardest part everything else is easy
zenith smelt
Hello! i just pushed a major update
This update adds Rock Bottom, a new joker which stores the maximum values of luck, mult, and chips and ensures you can never go below it. It works EXACTLY like how it works in isaac. Do note: i did not finish implementing the money functionality before this push, i will shortly push a hotfix soon.
The installation instructions have changed. We are no longer supported by Steamodded stable, please download the cryptid branch of smods with the old calc, and make sure to install talisman as well.
In addition, this adds:
- Yum Heart, which gives +1 hands for 3 charges (Q1)
- D1, a new dice that can either duplicate a consumable or create a different consumable from the same pool based on the same chance as Isaac.
I am considering changing Yum Heart to be 2 charges, but as a Q1 item, i feel like having a mild payoff for a shitty charge rate checks out.
thank you all for being so patient with me, college has been kicking my ass
