#The Ultimate Balatro Fan Art Guide (WIP)
vagrant fern
overdesigned and hard to read
especially where the pink text overlaps the darkest parts of the pink text boxes

in general, to be clear
the form should follow the function, prioritize getting the information across clearly before making it look pretty

yeaahh
the first thing I did was make the style
snow kayak
i'm going to be so for real right now
#1250386587691388989 is a lot easier to read AND understand
vivid elbow
it's something that is very universal across my slides
not comprehensive enough
I will habve this wayyyy bigger than that
vagrant fern
that wasn't myst's point tho
vivid elbow
but yeah it needs to be 3x easier to read
snow kayak
and honestly if you need more than whats in that thread that would read more like a pixel art tutorial rather than a balatro pixel art guideline
might as well just link a pixel art tutorial
vivid elbow
also fair
vivid elbow
But a lot of things i do are very balatro specific and I am really am enjoying making this slide
it's supposed to be very standalone
snow kayak
yeah thats just my feedback from what im seeing right now, text is too dense and for art terminology, you went into detail for hue shifting but not dithering
minor ice
this is a guide
snow kayak
this is a guide
it is a guide! but powerpoint/slides are better when the text is condensed and easy to read
-# clearly you have not been forced to make slides for several years in a row
vagrant fern
yea i think slides just aren't the best format for this tbh

oh i wasn't like making a point I was just saying that for the sake of saying it
snow kayak
ok c"Too Many Jokers"g
minor ice
ok myst"every time someone likes my art i piss myself"haps
minor ice
if you insist
vagrant fern

snow kayak
aanyway
if you insist on keeping the slides format then please break the sections into multiple slides

ok
I can do that
snow kayak
the entire balatro black section could be like 4-5 short slides which would be way easier to digest
vagrant fern
one letter per slide
in all seriousness yea why are you shoving 3 whole guidelines into a single slide
vivid elbow
idk
great question
ask me 2 hours ago
it was supposed to be 1 slide per but didn’t fell like I had enough to write about each
i could do it more and take it slower tho
yeah
vivid elbow
I'm making abriviated versions of the slide for surface level stuffed in a fast food kinda way
and multistep more serious expanded versions, 1 slide per step and a lot of analysis
so this is going to be a lot cooler :)

Ugh
going to do dithering abv and dithering expanded
tonight
maybe start jimbo jokers

I'm intrigued to see the consumables slides bc I'm making spectrals rn and I'd be happy for advice
vivid elbow
uh i'm not incredibly good at spectrals myself
west wyvern
ah okay
west wyvern
what do they look like?
west wyvern
ah alright
once I'm done with my first few (maybe tomorrow) I'd like to show them bc I think I'm starting to get them a bit
I looked through every time the word spectral was mentioned in the fan art chat to see what others have done and I'm using the vanilla ones as references but I'm pretty new to pixel art in general sooo we'll see
