∞/10 I LOVE GAMBLING!!!!!!!!!

Coming Soon™ is no more! 2.0 update is out!

2.0 with an almost complete rebalance is coming soon, so hopefully that will adress the balance factor

This mod is amazing, but it's so powerful... Maybe it should cost more to play? Especially since it pays you back if you win.

Seems to work just fine for me, are you sure you have the required 5 pennies and there is only one beggar the room you're trying to use it?

It seems to have stop working

ran into it in mausoleum
also very glad it can spawn any card, modded ones including

Unless you're making a suggestion, it's not intentional and I've never run into it while testing, but let's just say it's feature

hey, i dont know if only seeing the cards you are drawing without seeing your score during curse of darkness is intentional, but its really cool, makes understanding blackjack matter

I could certainly add the player's luck as a factor to the rewards, though I'd probably have to rethink the odds.

Question. Now I don't really mind spending the entire run playing blackjack, but I don't suppose the chance of getting rarer rewards is affected by luck? Maybe implementing that could help not wasting hours on this, which is on one hand is fine, but on the other idk.

Cool, thank you!

I've added controller support. As for the 5-Card Charlie rule - many casinos don't have it in place, since it tips the balance towards the player ever so slightly. I won't be adding it for that very reason.

any possibility of controller support? and shouldnt you win after your delt 5 cards and dont go over 21?

Are you using Mod Config Menu?

never spawns

Version 1.4 that includes soft hands has been uploaded. Check the change notes for more details.

Oh. I get it now. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I forgot to implement soft hands. I'll get on it right away

I definitely had ace as one of the first two cards. I haven't coded for isaac modding, so not sure how it works, but it might be that if ace is one of the first cards, the mod somehow omits its rule and makes it a const 11?

If it's any help, if I recall correctly i had the ace as the second card, or even the first. Could try to replicate with those combinations, also it might be conflicting with some other mods somehow maybe? Doesn't seem like it, but could be.

I legitimately have no idea why this is happening. Reproducing the bug with the same cards as you results in it working fine ( https://streamable.com/w0gyi1 ). I'll do my best to fix it, but I don't guarantee anything

Yes, i just tried it, and having 8, 3, and an ace busted me at 22.

Is anyone else having the same problem? (aces always count as 11)

Weird. In all of my testing the aces worked correctly - if they were to bust you they would simply be counted as one. Even testing it now they seem to work correctly. No clue what could be causing problems for you

Aces don't have a dual value and always count as an 11 even if it busts you, any plans to change this? Other than that I love the mod!

Thanks for the suggestions.
If I ever decide to remake this mod in a more vanilla-like way, I'll surely use your implementation as it sound really cool.
As for the playing cards, I couldn't find them. Even if I found them, they probably won't work in Isaac since they aren't pixel art (if they are, I apologize).

Here's how I'd see it implemented: Isaac "Holds" the cards gealt to him like an item pickup animation, they're shown there in sequence. The beggar does the same. If you hit the beggar within 5 seconds, he deals you another card, if you wait past 5 seconds, you stand. To be readable the temporary sprites for your hand should probably take up more space than the normal space of the sprite of an item so I don't know if that's possible.

still, I have one more suggestion: double down on the hud, use the illustrated playing cards designed by edmund, they're gorgeous, if you look hard enough you'll surely find the images online.

It's not possible to play Blackjack without a hud, unfortunately

I love the idea but I would have hoped for a no hud thing, like the rest of the game.

Thanks for the suggestion
I've changed the penny giving animation to be a nickel one instead,

This is really cool! Is there a way to update the visual to show a nickel being taken instead of a penny, like the claw machine? I'm excited to play with this mod, I think arcades are really cool and this is a nice addition to really fuel the gambling addiction that is Isaac lol

so fkn good, should be base game

This should be official in the arcade so cool

This is actually insane, I can't believe this is real. Huge props

Added. Thanks for the suggestion!

this mod is incredible btw

mod config menu support to adjust spawnrate plz? I feel like 50% to replace is too high

finally


child gambling

"He is just like his father"

This is cool but i have no idea how to play cards and don't have enough brain power to learn them

OMG DAD SIMULATOR :0

Dad would be proud
