[weak sleet]

oh my god 50 blinds???????

holy shit that must have been so much work

[flat sable]

assets ripped from minecraft methinks

[weak sleet]

i mean yeah they are

[flat sable]

but code would’ve been crazy

[weak sleet]

YEAH

how do you come up with 50 unique ideas damn

[viral spoke]

⬆️

[viral spoke]

soon to be 86 😭

[viral spoke]

well yes, but i did have to manually make the shine animation and special backgrounds for some

also to add a lil more spice, for each and every blind there's 2-3 sounds, one for entering, defeating, and a triggered sound (they are just copy and pasted from mc but cmon)

[heavy zephyr]

Blocks as jokers are gonna drive you mad, damn, hahaha

[viral spoke]

fr, and I'm one person 🥀 😭😭

[heavy zephyr]

Using Minecraft assets is smart, though. But I'd for sure find some systems to make the workload smaller because 900 jokers bloat the game and are hard to make mechanically distinct, hahaha

(I'm speaking from experience, and I'm only at 335)

[viral spoke]

I guess you're right... I'll see when I'm there.

[past carbon]

900 Jokers? ._.

[heavy zephyr]

At 900, is that also treating each wood type as a separate one?

[viral spoke]

well, I might just make the ""main"" type yk?

like Oak Wood

and I might do the specific types for certain blocks, like grass/dirt stuff

but most

maybe not

[heavy zephyr]

That does sound like a good approach. Might be fun to have them have the same effect but change the name and art to reflect the biome deck that's being used

[viral spoke]

Yeah.

[heavy zephyr]

Will the biome decks change which block jokers or blinds can spawn?

[viral spoke]

I don't know yet, I haven't even finished blinds yet 🤷

Though, that is a good idea..

[foggy lark]

is there a github link for this?

Waxed Lightly Weathered Cut Copper Stairs joker

[grave finch]

^ hes cooking

[dusty dune]

As people said 900 jokers is diabolocal, but you could maybe condense block types in a way, like how for example you consider all oak wood plank and all it's crafts (oak wood slab, stairs, etc) into a single joker that just represents oak wood planks

either way lowk thsi mod is cool :3

[viral spoke]

Not released yet

[viral spoke]

Thanks!

[viral spoke]

I think it's time to come back to this.

[swift basin]

this is probably gonna be hell with all the updates minecraft is doing

your progress is great tho

i cant wait for it to be done

[viral spoke]

Same here.

[viral spoke]

Holy shit.

I finished the Blinds.

They finally work.

[sharp zodiac]

woah wait this looks awesome

[solar leaf]

ooooh

[viral spoke]

Fuck i have to do jokers now

[sharp zodiac]

What will the jokers be based on? And can there be one based on the sheep end rod device :3

[viral spoke]

😭😭

[viral spoke]

I mean the Jokers are blocks idrk tho🤷‍♂️

[sharp zodiac]

ooo

[viral spoke]

like grass block

crafting table

furnace

etc

and Tarots/Spectrals are like items

like sticks, diamonds.

and vouchers are armor sets

maybe some trim variants

[sharp zodiac]

idrk how but the crafting table could be like one of the more complicated ones

[viral spoke]

Maybe.

[viral spoke]

86 now.

-# and they're all finished

actually

i think im missing 4

but those are like the really new mobs

nautilus and parched, etc.

ill do em later trust

[foggy lark]

what are some of the blind effects

for the new mobs

[viral spoke]

Idk yet.

Feel free to lend me your ideas.

[sharp zodiac]

The sniffer: 👃

[modest dust]

The Piglin: if a Gold Card is scored or held in hand, strip its gold and this Blind gains X0.5 base score requirement.

Needs an in_pool function to only appear if the deck has at least 3 gold cards

Oh you said new mobs lool

[viral spoke]

Oh alr cool, it was originally
"A gold card must",
"always be played or",
"hand will not score"

[viral spoke]

nah that's good

[modest dust]

Haha reading comprehension 3/10

[viral spoke]

with the in_pool thingy

[modest dust]

ye

[modest dust]

This def works as a tough boss yeah

As long as the deck has like at least 5 or 6

Otherwise you might just not get to play a hand and die

[viral spoke]

yeah lol

[foggy lark]

I mean tbh I feel like the effects dont always have to correlate to the mob mechanics 100% of the time

Nautilus: Card must be played with a scoring diamond/heart card
Zombie Nautilus: Card must be played with a scoring club/spade card
Parched: Cards held in hand during hand are debuffed

[jaunty cape]

yo this seems hype

[crimson raptor]

this is fire

[foggy lark]

is this still being worked on

[viral spoke]

Kind of.
