Resurgence (WIP) - Primordial Arts

[static finch]

unfortunately the slow ass wifi didn't help

well dw, i'm fine with both anyway

[night prism]

I assumed that was the case

[night prism]

Anyway, go recruit artists

Seriously, we need them

At the moment almost all art is still placeholder

[static finch]

oh come on, gaussian's stuff is great

[static finch]

sure sherlock

[night prism]

It is, but he himself said it's still placeholder

[static finch]

i meaaaaaan i still think it'd fit even without it being pixel art

[night prism]

And while some of it can just be put into the game, a lot still needs to be tweaked

[static finch]

omfg this is so sllllooooow

[night prism]

Yes but thunk almighty does not allow that

[dusty river]

pride flags are the only true non-placeholder I think, well, I mean, I do like sans and filth personally, and think they can stay, but even sans doesn't really work 100% tbh

[static finch]

i am trying to make the loc but this shit moves like it's a damn church event

[static finch]

like i care

[night prism]

Frisk is almost done i think

I'm not sure how to fix it yet

[dusty river]

also, I don't think we should not do this like that, tbh
if x1 don't look good, then imo, x2 doesn't either

[dusty river]

true

[static finch]

wdym

[dusty river]

also, I really like that little hollow knight guy you drew, he can stay too imo, lol

[night prism]

I love him

I neex to make the unbound version too

[static finch]

real

he shall be in the main menu

[dusty river]

[in the style of peter griffin talking about the godfather]
"I did not care for the art in garbshit"

[night prism]

I think i can handle most of the hk ones

[static finch]

real

garb's based

[night prism]

I think it serves its purpose

[dusty river]

I mean, I like it honestly, the art's good
that was all /j
but, I do think I dislike the style of mods like garbshit in BALATRO specifically

[night prism]

We don't need paperback level art, just passable art

[dusty river]

oh yeah, of course

[night prism]

As long as the mod looks polished

It's fine

[dusty river]

I wasn't talking quality, just, like, general "balatro feel", you know?

[night prism]

Though if u find papermoon lil brother to help, i'm not declining

[dusty river]

which we've honestly been doing pretty good on so far, with some exceptions

[night prism]

tbf the mod is not very vanilla oriebted

The mechanics are very out there

[dusty river]

I know

[night prism]

So i wouldn't complain about the art being too

[dusty river]

I just mean in it's basis is all, like, in the most basics of stylization

[night prism]

Indeed

So, @static finch are u gonna handle papermoon's kidnapping?

[dusty river]

also, I just really dislike when the art is built without x1 in mind, not just cuz anyone playing x1 would have a worse time, but because it ends up just looking strange in-game imo

[night prism]

Agreed

[night prism]

Do this and you are done, no need for more help

[static finch]

what?

also sorry me wifi died

like flatline

[night prism]

We need an artist

And we will get one

One way or another

[static finch]

well uh

what am I supposed to do about it

[night prism]

Kidnapping time

[static finch]

cryptid ass idea

[night prism]

Well, it works

[static finch]

I guess but isn't an unhappy worker a bad worker

[night prism]

That's what the hypnosis is for

And the ketamine

[static finch]

who said I won't brainwash him to like boys instead

[night prism]

How can you know that they don't already?

Also, u can do both

[static finch]

i can just make it stronger then

MK Ultra style

[night prism]

Boyloving artist are the best artists, or so i've been told

[static finch]

untrue, i still suck ass

that said, gaussian probably is a demographic in favor of this theory of yours

[night prism]

You mean the 100% straight man with a boyfriend?

Indeed he is

[static finch]

certainly

you meant the definitely straight slightly degenerate furry twink with a boyfriend

i assume

[night prism]

Were's the twink part coming from lol

[static finch]

...i gotta dig up that furry self potrait with his bf

[night prism]

I wouldn't be surprised

[static finch]

like i would

[night prism]

Where?

[static finch]

also, if you're thinking of that description fittin me too, i'm more than slightly degeerate

[static finch]

not here

[night prism]

I need that for science

[static finch]

i suppose i can't send it without permission

it'd be rude

even if the world wouldn't blow up

[night prism]

Then don't

[static finch]

i won't

[night prism]

Good

[static finch]

i am

even great

nikoeatingpancakes

[night prism]

Well, gotta design some racist DE jokers

Wish me luck

[static finch]

what a joy

[night prism]

I'll do the commie ones too

[static finch]

i'm sure you're italian enough ot be racist

[night prism]

And the gay ones too

[static finch]

we're honorary balkans, don't forget

[night prism]

I hope not

[static finch]

YESSS

[static finch]

WONDERFUL

[dusty river]

ok, was this crash from updating paperback, or from getting the new vampirica commit, lol

[static finch]

try removing vampirica and see i guess

[night prism]

Go into the lovely/dump folder and show me the line that's crashing

I can't look at it because i have different mods

And that changes stuff

[static finch]

the most useful feature of lovely is making the game take a dump

[night prism]

Well, that's the only one

[dusty river]

which file in the folder lol

[night prism]

Read the crash log

It says everything there

[static finch]

i wonder if it says 42

[dusty river]

ahhh, log folder, not dump, okey

[night prism]

No

Dump folder

[static finch]

i think he meant

[dusty river]

no?

[static finch]

use the log to find the dump

[night prism]

Indeed

[static finch]

look up the thing in the log and get the corresponding thing in the lovely folder in mods

[night prism]

dump/functions/misc_functions

[dusty river]

I'm confused, lol
so yes to the log folder, or no to the log folder?

thanku

[night prism]

Line 1753

[static finch]

galaxybrain

[dusty river]

omg, I'm sorry, I get it now, lol, okey

(I'm so dumb lool)

[night prism]

But are you dump?

[static finch]

oh my god.

[dusty river]

seems to have something to do with loc

[static finch]

i will never forgive you

[night prism]

I'm killing myself now

[night prism]

Neither will i

[static finch]

...did you get latest commit?

[dusty river]

yes

[static finch]

there's a non zero chance i fucked it up when i added the directer though it didn't show any errors so maybe not

oh great

sadcat

[night prism]

Who could have guessed it was your fault?

[static finch]

no one

[dusty river]

ok, so, one thing I can notice-

[static finch]

well this is a pure hypothesis

[dusty river]

all other locs start with a yellow {, yours starts with a blue one, which tells me something may be up with it

[static finch]

oh my god

i can't see the damn formatting

lemme see

again

[night prism]

Remove one }

There are two as u can see before the directer

[static finch]

another one of these fuckups and i'll consider seppuku

[dusty river]

ok, I think I may've fucked it up further lmao, crash still happens lol

different crash, but still a crash

[static finch]

for once

not my fault

hallelujah

oh btw

@night prism

what do you think about sacred orb as a joker

btw @dusty river can you add color to directer pwaseee

[static finch]

i'll probably forget and i have the colors inverted cause dark mode anyway

[static finch]

OH MY FUCKING GOD

did you get latest

well i got no idea what it is now

[dusty river]

😭

I have no clue what's happening lmao

[night prism]

Check that all the brackets are right

You probably should ann one at the end

Actually no

Not sure

[dusty river]

I'm keep adding them and removing them and nothing's changing lmaooo

[night prism]

Lemme look at the file in the last commit

They look fine to me

[dusty river]

😭 the commits weren't updated on my side for some reason
milo already fixed this

[static finch]

FOR ONCE

I DID IT RIGHT

i deserve a medal

[dusty river]

I hate discord :<

was gonna join the paperback server ashbjhsdf

[static finch]

imagine being in 200 servers

of which you probably use 5 at most

[dusty river]

Ahhh, I'm glad I joined the server, now I know there's a paperback beta with more stuffs lol

[night prism]

This is a level of terminally online even we can't achieve

[static finch]

i could, i just don't like talking to random people that much

[static finch]

pass ze link

me lazy

[night prism]

Indeed

[night prism]

Well, i'm a random person

[static finch]

nah you're a bi trans woman around 30

[night prism]

A random one though

[static finch]

can't wait for brimstone

[static finch]

nah ur special :3

[dusty river]

I'm so happy to be working on a mod with 4 other trans women :3

[static finch]

wait a sec

we're only 2

[dusty river]

[static finch]

@opaque oasis what are you not telling us?

[night prism]

Trans is like a virus, it spreads fast

Revo got caught too

Good for her 🏳️‍⚧️

[static finch]

more lesbian sex? nice :3

🏳️‍⚧️

[night prism]

Indeed

[static finch]

you sure are happier than you should about this

hey look @night prism

[dusty river]

I think I need to code some primed jokers, lol
been too long since we've added one in-game

[night prism]

Gay laser from the hit indie game terraria?

[static finch]

real

(i still think you were msitaken in not depicting your own prism as the gay lazer)

[static finch]

sorry i'm too busy making italian shitpost characters

next guy in line i wanna concept is o'sole meeo

[night prism]

Peak

[static finch]

well actually it's a doggo

that gains a literal stand when his weapon evolves

[opaque oasis]

what

?

[static finch]

sorry you're a girl now

you got no choice

[static finch]

as stated

[opaque oasis]

fuck you

[static finch]

hell yeah :3

[night prism]

Eating pizza today, this is a good day

[static finch]

sameee

twinsies :3

[night prism]

Italy moment

[static finch]

real but

isn't 1 day outta seven guaranteed to be good at least then

[night prism]

Well, hopefully

[opaque oasis]

f u

[night prism]

Stop, that's what they want

[static finch]

yeees :3

[dusty river]

I made a gaster sprite based off of gaussian's, hopefully it's good lol ||(my art program wouldn't let me put in wingdings, so I had to make the text completely manually lol, took forever)||

[static finch]

he joke

[opaque oasis]

fair enough

[dusty river]

I think too many people headcanon that gaster is, like, sans and papyrus's dad or some shit, I think we should should spread the idea that gaster is actually sans and papyrus fused together, like in steven universe, from the future /j

I'll add the sprite in rq if no one has any issues

[static finch]

so it's a yes? :3

[static finch]

LESBIAN SEX?

@dusty river

see this is on topic

to tell you Chara joker is a good idea

[dusty river]

lmaoooo

[static finch]

literally me tho

but I did it for the blood :3

[dusty river]

hmmm, I can see a chara joker existing, though, I feel the need to say right now, that people tend to misinterpret who chara is as a character lol, I've heard a lot about it before, and just a reminder, that chara was not the monster, you were, it was you, your hands

not that the jonker wouldn't be a good idea, I just wanted to autism there, lmao

[static finch]

I know

Chara is me

cause she transfem headcanon

fr fr

[dusty river]

I forgor that balatro darkens sprites on it's own in game lol, now I get why we need such a light black lol

I still want it to feel off a bit tho, as it IS gaster, so I'm only gonna do the bare minimum for, just, like, better visibility, lol

[night prism]

You can use the campfire black

That's the darkest color in the game

I used it on plasma lamp to make it stick out

[dusty river]

I think it might be good now

maybe

it's to an ok level, at least, if it's too dark still we can change it

[static finch]

nothing is too dark

[dusty river]

https://tenor.com/view/shadow-cool-shadow-shadow-the-hedgehog-gif-25938210

[static finch]

"i just love latinas, sonic"

[dusty river]

bacc

[night prism]

me too

i'm looking at the changed u made before going to sleep

[night prism]

i think it's a bit weird that v1 wants u to score steel cards

since u normally want to hold them in hand

[dusty river]

that's actually partially why it does, it's an exchange of sorts
at least, the thought behind it

[night prism]

yeah but 8 is a lot

[dusty river]

mhh fair, lol

[static finch]

@night prism

i wanted to ask you

what do you think of a rank 42 card

[night prism]

like, just 42, nothing more?

just +42 chips?

[static finch]

well it's a HHGTTG ref

anyway, it'd work just like D&DJ's ranks

just

normal ranks

[night prism]

i get that

[night prism]

i'm fine with this

[static finch]

nothing fancy, we got A&O for that

[night prism]

also, HHGTTG planars?

[static finch]

didn't get any ideas for them

tbf

anyway, grindin

while i think

[night prism]

bunny monke

[static finch]

recursive furries

@dusty river

[night prism]

ok, this one is funny

[static finch]

curse you jen's

[static finch]

so as i was saying

how does one make a rank

[night prism]

well, i already made 2

so another one shouldn't be hard

[static finch]

fair enough but aren't those rankless and just have a suit

and are also technically enhancements

[night prism]

no?

they have ranks

[static finch]

huh

[night prism]

at least in the code

[static finch]

missed that

[night prism]

@dusty river @magic sand do you mind if i tweak some of your art a bit? Just to make it more consistent with balatro's artsyle

i don't want to sound like i wanna redo your stuff lol

it's fire already

[static finch]

I'd say great

not fine

[night prism]

fire

you blind thing

[static finch]

fuck

nevermind :3

[dusty river]

I guess, go ahead
tho, I'd like to know what issues you have

[night prism]

sure

[dusty river]

(also, gaster's sharp edges are on purpose btw, the joker's supposed to look a little wrong, lol)

[night prism]

i figured

the background on sans is bit weird, the colors are off imo

[dusty river]

tru, I've thought that myself actually

[night prism]

i still feel gaster is a bit to dark, but i'm not changing it for now

also gaster could benefit from a shader imo

to make it feel more off

[static finch]

yeah but which kinda thing

[night prism]

this edges are not really balatro like

i'd smooth them personally

[static finch]

he British

[night prism]

maybe glitchy?

[static finch]

eh I guess

[dusty river]

i think whatever shader it is should be subtle

[night prism]

for sure

i think this looks a bit more balatro like

but again, your art so i don't want to touch much

i think some shading could fit, but i'm not sure since undertale had none

but this feels a bit flat imo

what do u think @dusty river ?

[dusty river]

hmmm, idk, I feel like maybe yeah

I'm still half asleep rn lmao

[night prism]

imma try something, we can revert back in case

i tried this for now, with not shading on the face

i think i got carried away a bit

also for the future, try to respect the border, with one gray pixel and 2 white ones

most jokers ingame use the same border

[static finch]

he looks like a mockup trading card

great I say

though I don't see a massive difference compared to before

[night prism]

dunno if i should take this as a compliment lol

[static finch]

it is a compliment

to me at least

[night prism]

i'm making small changes

[static finch]

too blind to see them prob

[night prism]

i don't want to replace railgun's art

[static finch]

you don't wanna get railed for it

[night prism]

she did a great job already

[static finch]

I'm sure ;3

[night prism]

i'm not sure what to answer here

[static finch]

@dusty river this looks sick (ignore text)

[static finch]

the joke is-

[static finch]

real

https://cdn.discordapp.com/stickers/1252308191119675422.png

[night prism]

mine's bigger

[static finch]

not like you'd use it :3

[dusty river]

I think the border swap kinda makes the image less understandable, imo

[night prism]

maybe, then some shading should have a similar effect and make it clearer

i think

though i'm not sure really, i like the flat white head

[dusty river]

the border swap obscures the ground and it also kind of fuses with the text box

[night prism]

i misread your previous message sorry

i agree actually

i was thinking about fixing it somehow

without changing the border hopefully

maybe like this?

[dusty river]

Good 👍

[night prism]

i think this should be fine, i ended up changing more than expected, sorry if this is to much

i used the blue from all other jokers, but it's bit weird here

so i'll probably change it

better

[static finch]

'tis great

[dusty river]

I like the background 👍 good job on them trees, heehehe

[static finch]

I thought they were scratch marks

https://cdn.discordapp.com/stickers/1160680954499694602.png

[night prism]

i tried to mimic the ones in the game as much as possible

[static finch]

oh right

I didn't play that in a long time

[night prism]

i think i'll cannibalize the glitched shader from cryptid for gaster

though i'll change it a lot

[static finch]

based

[night prism]

the brothers be looking great

papyrus still has not text though

[static finch]

he should say

"WHO TOUCHED MY SPAGHET"

[dusty river]

mhh, not enough "Joker"

imo

I'd have it mimic one of his lines about being "The great papyrus!"
also, I think we'd want a line where he says "human" and replace it with "joker", to match sans

[static finch]

you dare to argue my meme refs?

[dusty river]

question, is it even a meme ABOUT papyrus?

[static finch]

well his whole thing is spaghetti

also, Italy moment

[night prism]

i wasn't actually thinking of a text box for papyrus, just regular joker text, but i like this too

[static finch]

(I have no bias)

[dusty river]

that was my og thought as well, but text box to match sans would be fitting

[static finch]

yeah

true

[dusty river]

we'd probably have to put it ABOVE his head unlike sans tho, cuz of the image framing

[static finch]

yeah uh

I don't see how this is so impactful

[dusty river]

what do u mean?

[night prism]

this looks good too

[dusty river]

yeah, agreed

[night prism]

not sure if i prefer this or the dialogue

[dusty river]

hmm, lets make sure the other papyrus is saved, the one without joker text, then use this one for now
if we make something better later, we can always replace it

[night prism]

it's already on github

so saved forever

unless milo fucks something up with the repo

[dusty river]

how long has sinclair not been purple in the sheets lmao, he was, like, one of the first jokers we added, lmao

[night prism]

i also made so that he gives the money at cash out like golden joker

[static finch]

fair enough

[static finch]

nobody loves that guy

[dusty river]

you know, I actually think you may have been right slightly before, about planars having a unique style to them
the thing is though, I don't think they should have the SAME style, rather, I think it should depend on which planar type we're talking about
not a massive thing, of course, not like legendaries do, cuz I mean, this is just a trait and not a rarity, but I think it'd be cool if the jokers, borderwise and such, were reminiscent to the og thing they were from
like, I really like how the text and border of filth came out

[static finch]

ah I get it

yeah agreed

[dusty river]

even just slightly, like, I think undertale planars having a slightly more boxy border would make sense, make it look like the border of the text box in game, and such

opinion here, @night prism ?

[night prism]

i like them having a coherent style yeah

though we haven't been paying attention to that for the undertale ones so far

[dusty river]

like I said, it doesn't have to be massive, it could be as little as a matching border, u know?

[night prism]

yeah, for sure

[dusty river]

(tho, imo, I do think gaster could break this rule, as it's kind of in character for him, lmao)

[static finch]

he's literally out of their world

or what was it

[night prism]

@dusty river i think i got a pretty good shader for gaster

[static finch]

show

don't tell

[dusty river]

shattered across the multiverse

[night prism]

it does not show good in video

get the commit and look yourself

[static finch]

something tells me i'm missing a ref

[static finch]

maybe you didn't implement it yet

what do i know

[dusty river]

he was literally shattered across the multiverse, one of the few things about gaster that we actually do know, or at least, something that comes from the source material

it's something one of his followers says in-game

[static finch]

oooo

trippy

the shader not the backstory

[dusty river]

checking now lol, loading up the game

[static finch]

if i look at it long enough i'll get a headache

(squared paper gives me headaches too so eh)

(not too shocking)

[dusty river]

I'm liking the sound of it, hehehehe

[static finch]

i am disabled, blind and stupid

you shouldn't be too hyped

[dusty river]

the shaders fucking perfect

I love it

[static finch]

@night prism

as usual plagiarism good

[night prism]

thank Samario then

[dusty river]

I like how it's kind of, not glitched, but it's like, a vcr monitor, but also warped, it has a vibe to it, hehehe

[night prism]

90% of the works is from them

[dusty river]

lmao, thanks Samario, wherever that person is

[static finch]

whoever that is

[night prism]

it's essentially glitched from cryptid, slowed down and with the colors more messed up

[night prism]

the one that made the cryptid shaders

[static finch]

oh

[dusty river]

btw, this is the reason I wanted him to show up in celestial packs, was a refrence

[night prism]

sadly most editions make the shader disappear

but there's not much we can do for that

[night prism]

that should be doable

like black hole

[static finch]

but rarer

like

ultra super rare

i presume

[dusty river]

yeah, I tried to do it on my own, but it just broke stuff lmao

[static finch]

YOU WANT MORE PLUTO?

[night prism]

but we need to add a new command for getting the joker, rather than using the planet

we can also make a consumable

instead of finding him directly

[dusty river]

mhhh! that could work! also gives us an option of adding more characters to the pool of the consumable

if any other "Glitchy" characters exist that wanna use it

[static finch]

niko

niko is a prime candidate for this

[night prism]

well, i feel this should be gaster specific

[static finch]

technically they shouldn't have been in oneshot in the first place

[night prism]

we can make another for other caracters

[dusty river]

mhh, fair

[night prism]

one consumable for each

we could make this the main way of obtaining gaster tbh

[dusty river]

yeah

[static finch]

yeah makes sense

if it's an error anyway

it should appear where it's not supposed to

[night prism]

so in spectral and celestial packs like black hole

[dusty river]

I can make some quick art for the consumable if u want

[night prism]

sure

[static finch]

let's see whatcha got

[night prism]

i'll code it

[static finch]

wait can i do it

[night prism]

though i'm not sure how to make it rarer than black hole

[static finch]

i lack consumable experience

[night prism]

i hope i don't need to redo all the rare consumable code from scratch

i hope...

[static finch]

well uh

can't there just be a fixed chance for it

[static finch]

:3

literally what i would've wrote

unfathomably based

[night prism]

not sure

[static finch]

question

can you check how gateway works

it's rarer than the soul, i think

[night prism]

is it? i presume it is

[static finch]

it should

[night prism]

gateway uses a different method than the base smods one

it's probably hardoced somewhere

[dusty river]

I'm assuming we want a new sprite sheet for this right?

[static finch]

i guess?

[night prism]

well, we can make one for all the spectrals

[static finch]

if it's a series of "rare joker consumables" i guess

wait. call them keepsakes?

[night prism]

we will add the spectral for music and augments too

actually we need to come up with something for them

[static finch]

.

[dusty river]

they... they're just spectrals tho

[night prism]

this is not what i'm talking about

[static finch]

oh

what then

[night prism]

i just said we need to figure out an effect for the rare consumables

the ultimate tweak for augments, and whatever for music cards

[static finch]

wdym

[static finch]

something something multiply values without compromises?

[night prism]

soul and black hole equivalent

for the new consumable types

[night prism]

pretty basic

[dusty river]

I have ideas cooking in here

[static finch]

yeah but

[dusty river]

in me head lol

[static finch]

basic = powerful

[static finch]

figures

you're a furnace

[night prism]

joker:

+4 mult

[static finch]

in this specific context

[night prism]

very powerful

[static finch]

i'd argue altering values is pretty powerful

so you put stipulations on it

a straight up number multiplication thingy is powerful if you have no clauses

[dusty river]

imagine you open a soul card and you get "x2 mult, no conditions"

[static finch]

no

like oil lamp

but not gradual, just straight up X5 values on selected joker or something

[dusty river]

I have ideas cooking

these aint them lol

[static finch]

bruh

[night prism]

also i think i'll make the augments music too, this will be the 5th balatro theme variation i make lol

[static finch]

more theme good

[night prism]

this should be easier hopefully

[static finch]

how do you make music more music-themed

[night prism]

since i must follow the same tempo and time

[night prism]

lol

[dusty river]

music would be classical style I'd assume, lol

[night prism]

yeah

god

that would be crazy lol

i'm making it solo piano

simple and direct

[static finch]

IS THAT RUSH E

[dusty river]

spectrals spritesheet started

[static finch]

balatr-ush E

[static finch]

wowie

[night prism]

rush e joker?

[static finch]

well only place i saw Es was in unstable

huh

you know what would be funny

an E rank that randomly gets a new rank assigned to it every time it's drawn

to hand

like puzzled but usable

[night prism]

what style will augments music be? I think chiptune would fit

[static finch]

yeah

definitely

something like crazy machines' sondrack?

[night prism]

i never got that rank actually

i'm still unsure how it works

[static finch]

it's just e

[night prism]

@dusty river

[static finch]

also i'm not describind the rank from there

i'm saying something new

[night prism]

i meant "?"

[static finch]

oh that one

figures idk either

[night prism]

great

[dusty river]

hmmm, maybe, sounds like it might work, was thinking of something with machinery sounds, but this is probs more whimsical

[static finch]

it's rare

[night prism]

i figured

[static finch]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7g_0mbWQN7I

[dusty river]

(what if both 😳)

[static finch]

both is always the best answer

[night prism]

this will help

[static finch]

something something hi chibi-tech

[night prism]

fire plugin

and it's free

pretty sure all the chiptune synths from undertale are made with this plugin

[static finch]

toby fox's sneaky

[night prism]

people figured out pretty much all the sounds he used for that game

[static finch]

it was uh

sarcasm

[night prism]

there's a full list somewhere i think

[night prism]

no shit

[static finch]

there must be as long as we keep living

[night prism]

why do you feel the need to specify every time you make a joke?

i get it

[static finch]

it's the tism i guess?

i just get misunderstood constantly

force of habit

[night prism]

fair

[dusty river]

feel ya

same 😔

[static finch]

...you would?

[dusty river]

/srs

[static finch]

:3

[dusty river]

lmaooo hehehe

[static finch]

sorry~1

sorry i didn't hit my horni quota today

mr tight ass didn't give me the chance

[dusty river]

I'm curious, what was ur reason for making poe work off of hearts?

[magic sand]

For me it's ok

[static finch]

https://vampire.survivors.wiki/w/Pummarola

[dusty river]

ahhh

[night prism]

pummarola

this is a masterpiece

though this is wrong, right?

[static finch]

yeah it should be just tomato

i wonder who changed it

it was right months ago

[night prism]

also neapolitan is not a dialect technically

it's a language

[night prism]

well, guess who will change it back

[static finch]

your ass?

[static finch]

GO PLAY VS YOU BASTARD

[night prism]

some moron by the name of Jeffhawke77 changed it

[static finch]

can't even write hawk right

[night prism]

the page had not been updated for 2 years

[static finch]

the fuck?

i remember seeing just tomato there

tho i last checked in 2022

[night prism]

it was

2 moths ago this guy changed it

after 2 yeas with no updates

[night prism]

this person appeared out of nowhere lol

[static finch]

bruuuh

[static finch]

ignorant littlle shit

[static finch]

https://ofmonstersandken.itch.io/balatro-jimbo-card-factory @night prism @dusty river

huzzah

[night prism]

and?

[static finch]

nothin maybe i could try doing stuff too

[night prism]

this does not help with modding

[static finch]

i mean

"we have no artists milo"

"go kidnap papermoon"

[night prism]

does this help with art?

i assumed it was just the text box

[static finch]

hypothetically

[dusty river]

I think it might help with, like, basic basic jokers... maybe
also maybe loc, but only if it exports in the right way

[static finch]

whelp

[dusty river]

let me try downloading it, I'll see what it can do real quick

[static finch]

nevermind then

[dusty river]

the page isn't too descriptive lol

[static finch]

rip

[dusty river]

(does't help that there's no comments lmao)

[static finch]

Clueless~1

it's that new

[dusty river]

you said you aren't good at art before, but you know, I've don't think I've ever seen your attempts actually

[static finch]

first of all

i don't even know where to begin

second

i can't see shit so i'd be excruciatingly inconsistent with details

third of all, i made nothing

[dusty river]

riiiiight, forgot ur blind lol

[static finch]

...

how

it's literally half my personality

the other half being gay

[dusty river]

I don't know how to talk to people tbh, I know it'd be weird to, just, ask in the fan art channel, so, how do I get people that'd wanna make arts? lol

[static finch]

well you just butt in conversations like a dumbass and make stupid jokes till you convince them

surely there's no better way

the best hypothesis, seriously speaking, would be to literally make the mod

and then ask artists to make stuff

as we'd already have a base

no?

[night prism]

an Beethoven was deaf

[dusty river]

true

[night prism]

that didn't stop him

[static finch]

I AM NOT THAT GOOD

NEVER WILL BE

i can't math art

[dusty river]

honestly, depending on how your blindness works, it might even make you better somehow

[static finch]

you expect too much

[static finch]

HOW.

now explain this to me

[night prism]

lol, what?

[dusty river]

OH NUH UH
YOU SAID THE MAGIC WORDS
YOU GOTTA AT LEAST TRY NOW

[static finch]

not even dead

[dusty river]

like, if your vision is blurred, you might see things in a simpler form, or, something like that, lol

[static finch]

/s

[static finch]

this makes no sense,

just read it again

[dusty river]

idfk lmao

[static finch]

and tell me that's a good counterpoint

[dusty river]

mozart was deaf + L, I guess

[static finch]

boykisserfrown

spontaneously combust, thank you

[dusty river]

there's no hurt in trying, at least, right?

[static finch]

yes there is

my ego burns

even getting code wrong

even then, i don't want the art headache

[dusty river]

I'm drawing some extremely shitty concept art rn, lmao

I'm taking my own advice that I forgot to give and just starting real simple and going with the flow lol

[static finch]

bruh

[dusty river]

idk, lol

sajkfhsd

my brain is 10% power rn

[static finch]

just 10?

i'm always on eco mode

[dusty river]

anyone wanna see my extremely shitty concept art for punk? lmao

[static finch]

why not

[dusty river]

I'm not even joking, this is awful, lmao

one sec

I know nothing about poses or framing or anything lol, just a genral vibe I guess lol
(spoilered cuz bad art lol)

[static finch]

this could be my magnum opus

[dusty river]

it's shitty cuz I put almost 0 effort in, it's for concept not for good art lol

this is what I mean, lmao, making art like this is how I got where I am today
one step at a time works, just do what's fun and the skill will come over time

(me, still waiting for the skill to come, patiently)

lmao

[static finch]

i could wait for my eyes to fix themselves too

yeah

[dusty river]

I couldn't get this to look half as cool as the idea in my head lol, a lot of stuff I missed from the idea in my head
jacket's too plain atm, joker hat instead of mohawk, lol

[dusty river]

I find the "Skate board the size of a pizza being held like one" hilarious lmao

should I make more like this, @night prism ? or do you beg me to stop burning people's eyes, lmao

[static finch]

mine were already burnt

can't hurt me more

[dusty river]

lmao

[night prism]

what's this supposed to be lol

[dusty river]

😭 fair lol

[night prism]

no, i mean genuinely

[dusty river]

my shitty concept art for the joker "Punk"

[night prism]

what's it?

[night prism]

lol

[dusty river]

lmao

[static finch]

i mean i can see that

(incredible ik)

that glorious hand gesture gives it away

[night prism]

indeed

we need an artist so bad lol

we are so cooked

[static finch]

rip

[night prism]

like, we have a lot of content already in

it shouldn't be too hard to convince someone to help a bit

(it will)

[dusty river]

don't worry guys, my awesome art skills are improving

wait, this gives me an idea

what if I just start posting images like this in the fan art channel till someone starts helping us, lmao

[static finch]

now that's incredibly effective

pity moves mountains

[night prism]

i doubt this is a good idea

[night prism]

desperation does too

and we are at that stage

[static finch]

well i give ^20 chips

[static finch]

why?

i mean

showdown got away with having 90% of their jokers with no art

[night prism]

yeah but i don't want that

[static finch]

what's the harm

[night prism]

none

[static finch]

all that matters is gameplay

[dusty river]

ok, he's ready to go in game now

[night prism]

to blind people like you maybe

[dusty river]

I realized the lines were kinda bad from blurring when shrinking it, but it's ok, I just used the sharpen tool

[static finch]

fuck you 3:

[static finch]

art.

[dusty river]

I can actually make some good effects from editing, but that's like, 90% of my art skill tbh lmao

it's all from messing with effects and stuff, mostly

[night prism]

this is 50% faster than the final version, for some reason music track in balatro are faster in the files and then slowed down in game

[dusty river]

like, using the shitpost image from before, mixing it with a base joker, I made this

[static finch]

this is a bop

[dusty river]

that's so good, hehe

1:00 you can hear an alien having an autistic ramble about balatro

:3

[static finch]

you mean an alien cat

(me)

(yes a lotta people call me an alien)

[night prism]

ingame version

[static finch]

you unintentionally nightcore'd the thing

in the og version

this will go in my playlist anyway

[night prism]

how will the augment boosters called?

[static finch]

diy kits?

[night prism]

i don't think augment packs will work

[static finch]

toolboxes?

[dusty river]

hold on one sec here

[night prism]

i think the word pack should still be there

[static finch]

no

[dusty river]

Mechanical Pack

maybe

[static finch]

someone likes the mechanic

[dusty river]

Engineer Pack

something along these lines could work

Tinker Pack

[night prism]

i like this one

[static finch]

mhm

agreed

gizmo pack?

[night prism]

well

though this tells us that we can actually just add gaster to the booster, with no consumable needed

i can just grab the jimbos like in a buffoon pack

[static finch]

this looks great

2 buffoons and random junk

[dusty river]

Nice!

[night prism]

they work!!

[static finch]

yay :3

[dusty river]

yippee :3

[night prism]

i posted the wrong file

they work!!

they are as rare as spectral packs for now

[dusty river]

okey 👍

also, don't forget that I made these for placeholders for us, tho we can def do better at some point

[night prism]

i didn't have them, imma put them in game asap

[dusty river]

hmmm, now, if gaster doesn't need the spectral anymore, I kinda wanna make a concept for the art that I put in

[night prism]

also, since i added the shader i can remove the blue things from the art, right?

you can't see them anyway

[dusty river]

the blue things?

[dusty river]

oooh, that's just a leftover from how I made it lol
you can set that to white or black if you want

[night prism]

ok, i assumed they were there to give that glitchy feel

[static finch]

https://www.reddit.com/r/balatro/s/UsPQ1aAe1M ...art

[night prism]

absolute masterpiece

[static finch]

we need a JD Vance joker

[night prism]

fuck you cryptid, i hate you and your stupid fucking overrides

[static finch]

what happen

[dusty river]

oh? what's happening?

[night prism]

cryptid overrides a lot of functions from the base game, meaning i cant patch them, because cryptid just replaces all the code

[static finch]

so you gotta patch cryptid's code

?

[night prism]

well, you can't

[static finch]

huh

[night prism]

so i'm overrinding their overrides

[static finch]

well uh

that's what I meant

[night prism]

who lives by sword dies by sword

[static finch]

isn't it modified cryptid code?

[night prism]

well not really

[static finch]

technically not patching but still accomplishing that

[night prism]

pathing add's stuff

overriding replaces altogether

[static finch]

I get it

[night prism]

with a path i can change just one line

[static finch]

I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE

[night prism]

while with overrides i must replace the whole damn function

[static finch]

all I am saying is that in the end the result is kinda the same thing unless something else screws with it

[night prism]

chill

[static finch]

dunno you kept rambling

I said I know what patching means

[night prism]

well, it's more annoying to code

and straight up impossible in some cases

[static finch]

hm

makes sense

[night prism]

for example, since prism loads before cryptid, i cant override their code

[static finch]

so we gotta load after stuff

[night prism]

cryptid always takes precedence in that case

[night prism]

cryptid has 114 priority, anva has 115 lol

[static finch]

yeah I didn't look at priorities

[night prism]

so obvious it's done because of cryptid

[static finch]

yk

[night prism]

was just saying that i set it just one above cryptid's because of this stuff

[static finch]

oh

well then

good to know

[night prism]

why? @static finch

[static finch]

it's called peak poncle shitposting

they are unironically, genuinely useful

mini ghost and mini horse are the best

[night prism]

i approve of this

[static finch]

I like torrone

[night prism]

fire too

[night prism]

who doesn't?

[static finch]

it was called tiragisu a long long time ago

[static finch]

some psychopath I knew

[night prism]

lol

[static finch]

yes.

there's also the milk factory

it's all bulls

figure it out

[night prism]

this is killing me lol

[dusty river]

https://tenor.com/view/happy-catto-cats-gif-2693509101423175460

[static finch]

okay but

didn't we wanna make consumables for those

[dusty river]

@static finch you should add, canon trans woman, Giovanna Grana, as a joker
https://vampire-survivors.antifandom.com/wiki/Giovanna_Grana

[static finch]

I know I know

she is canon trans

[night prism]

why?

[static finch]

YES.

wait till you see gatti amari

[dusty river]

we thought we needed to, we now know we don't need to

[static finch]

ah

okie then

nvm

you people just gotta survive

anything but vampires

[night prism]

best wiki ever lol

[static finch]

actually, there are like 4 canon vampires with dracula and the others from castlevania

[static finch]

ikr

everything is either a stupid pun, a reference, or both

there's sailor moon there

with a dedicated weapon

[dusty river]

biggest mistake they ever made
there should have never been any vampires ever lmao

[static finch]

they are uh

NOT the vampire

[dusty river]

THERE'S SAILOR MOON IN VS?

[night prism]

real

[static finch]

citing cristina d'avena

[static finch]

what? how can nothing be sad

[dusty river]

Happy Molisano
Angry Molisano
Confused Molisano

[dusty river]

how... is she sailor moon?

[static finch]

well

the weapon is an obvious reference

the outfit is similar i heard

[night prism]

gay grim reaper

[static finch]

and the name is a mockup of the singer for it's theme song in italian

[static finch]

pornography

[dusty river]

did... did they pull a fucking power rangers

[static finch]

if you don't stop parusing the wiki and get playing i'll literally send you the link pirated, idc

just go and fucking play it

[static finch]

yep.

[night prism]

peak singer

[static finch]

"siamo fatti così"

[night prism]

indeed we are

indeed

[static finch]

maronne

there's a weapon that literally gives the dog character a stand

[night prism]

hey, i know this one

[static finch]

balatro reference spotted

[night prism]

the best guitarist is there too

[static finch]

wasn't that a castlevania dlc guy thing

i know nothing of the funny vampire vandalism game

[night prism]

yeah i know

[static finch]

also i know he's op as shit

5 stacking per level bonuses

forever

[night prism]

but also

[static finch]

if you get exponential xp you can limit break the shit otta everything

[static finch]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1095951270407327767/1363594349039849483/res-1.gif?=

i have obtained more gay furries

your fate is sealed

[night prism]

the music i wrote for the primordial wouldn't exist without him

as metal probably would not

[static finch]

damn

[night prism]

i'm making gaster 5 times rarer than the soul

[dusty river]

ooooo

[night prism]

we can change this in the future

[static finch]

i'd argue even 10

[night prism]

dunno, the soul is pretty rare

[static finch]

by the way, didya know why drac does that whole glass card thing?

the stupid ass wine glass is a weapon

[dusty river]

yeah, tbh, 5 might even be to much
might be best to have it work like primordial does now, where the rarity is based on ante

[static finch]

huh

yeah

makes sense

[night prism]

i disagree

it makes sense for primordials there are many an in the late game they are almost essential

gaster is just a very specific joker

[static finch]

gaster is on that power level tho

[night prism]

yes but i don't think it should become more common later

since it's almost an ester egg

[dusty river]

I think there should be a cap tbh
on both primordials and gaster

[night prism]

primordial are a whole type of joker, so them becoming more common makes sense

just gatser does not imo, for the same reason black hole does not

[static finch]

hm

[night prism]

because, them becoming more common implies you want on rely on it to some extent

but that's not the case for gaster

it is for primordials

do they know what a bugbear is?

because this is not lol

[static finch]

yes uh

i got no knowledge of contra either

[night prism]

what's contra?

peak

[static finch]

https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contra_(videogioco) here have the italian wiki

[night prism]

never heard of this before
