v1.0.4

32:9 ultrawide is now handled with black bars so that you can still play the game and access settings and such. Apologies for the oversight to all of the 32:9 users out there for missing that on launch!
- This does mean if you've changed your resolution you may have to do so again after updating
Pressing esc now toggles the settings UI, so just in case you can't access it you can always use the hotkey
Fixed an issue preventing you from getting the final achievement if you close the dialog too quickly
Fixed a typo in Chinese Simplified & Chinese Traditional
Better edge case handling in the case of any autosave failures that may occur

Out now! It's time to play This Ain't Even Poker, Ya Joker

Dec 11

Hello everyone,

I am happy to announce This Ain't Even Poker, Ya Joker is now available on Steam! Prepare to face Lester the Jester in this poker-inspired (...but this ain't even poker?) incremental/idle/clicker game.

You start out small, by flipping a single card to earn some coins, then quickly grow by spending those coins to buy more cards and more hands to flip, discovering new cards that give huge bonuses, destroying unwanted cards to improve your odds of hitting good hands and much more.

Once you earn enough coins, you'll meet Mary the Fairy to help you ascend and get even more powerful upgrades like merging expeditions, joker cards, new suits, values, rarities, and more in a separate upgrade tree in exchange for poker chips, which you must trade in everything you own to earn.

Finally, after you earn enough poker chips and unlock many powerful upgrades, you'll begin the final phase of the game, introducing yet another powerful upgrade tree, allowing you to use Runes to empower your cards in order to defeat the Jester.

I had a blast developing the game and I hope you have a blast playing it! Good luck in there with Lester! Don't forget, he's not a Joker, he's a Jester!

This Ain’t Even Poker, Ya Joker

Soft locked myself after ascending

I bought the ascension perks that let you choose multiple cards to add and destroy in expeditions, and now they are so expensive that I can’t do them at all, I’m stuck with all common cards barely pulling a few mil per hand, I have zero chips, and my next chip costs 250 trillion. Is there anything I can do besides delete my save and start over? I really don’t want to go through the beginning and 2 expeditions again....

Launching December 11th!

Dec 3

Hello everyone,

I am happy to announce that This Ain’t Even Poker, Ya Joker will be launching right here on Steam on December 11th! There are 3 main phases throughout the game, each unlocking new mechanics allowing you to progress further and further. The demo version of the game, which is now offline, featured the 1st phase.

Full game features

Phase-based progression: Work your way through stages that introduce new mechanics in order to defeat the Jester and escape the carnival.
Expeditions: Find new otherworldly cards on exploration expeditions, or remove cards from your deck with destruction expeditions
Upgrades: Throughout the game there are several upgrade trees allowing you to improve your cards abilities to earn more money.
Ascension: Meet Mary the Fairy, who teaches you how to ascend in exchange for poker chips. Spend those chips to buy extremely powerful upgrades and bonuses to help you slip out of the Jester’s grip.
Quests & Achievements: Unlock quests and achievements, allowing you to supplement your earnings to quickly grow your coins.
Joker Cards: Unlock the Joker Shop to buy Joker Cards that pair with your decks and open up new ways to reach even bigger payouts.
Card Merging: Unlock merging expeditions, allowing you to combine cards to create even stronger versions and set up wild, over-the-top synergies.
Powerful Upgrades: Unlock new suits, values, rarities and even entirely new Poker Hands (5 of a kind? how is that even possible?) by ascending, allowing you to even further boost your earnings.
Rune upgrades: Find runes, then spend them to upgrade your cards to give yourself a fighting chance against the Jester.

I want to like the game but unfortunately it just feels like an initial idea on not much more.

There are many potentially progression ideas mashed together and as a total amalgamation they do not make much sense.

Some of the screenshots for the game are also not representative of the final gameplay (in particular the upgrade tree), meaning the game is misselling itself as having more depth than it actually does, two hour game tops.

A fun incremental that I recommend for its intro cost with the knowledge you'll probably be finished within 5 hours unless you want to min/max it. I think its also very important there is false advertising occurring with the skill tree in the game pictures. It is not that in-depth and you largely end up done with the skill tree bar one skill relatively quickly.

I'm hopeful they might expand it, but currently a fun 5 hour time sink priced accodingly and then you'l llikely forget this game.

if you like idle, incremental games i 100% recommend this game.

the game has an ascension system. the pace of the game picks up after you ascend and solves some of the UI issues.

you can add and remove cards to the deck so you get betters hands down the line. later there is a joker shop so u can build more around your deck and combos (like balatro). and there is still more stuff i haven unlocked in the ascension system.

game has very minor UI issues like buttons besides cards are to small (even when zoomed in). but that doesn't realy affect how you play the game.

there is no separate slider for the different noises the game creates, there is clickable map stuff that makes noise so ill ended up the full muting the game.

other than that the game is fun and is actually one of the better idle games i played.
