📜 Dev Log #9: $10 per UI Image. The result? 150 Tech Cards of pure synergy.

Hey everyone, It’s me again—the solo dev still grinding code through the weekend. Let’s talk budgets. I just dropped $20 on two UI images. Do the math—that’s literally $10 per image.

But honestly, as more players support the game and sales grow, I’m fully committed to continuously upgrading the art quality with every version. ​ Consider this a promise: the more you guys back this project, the better CyberJoker is going to look.

  1. The $10 UI Upgrade

I’m a coder, not an artist. My stick figures scare people. So, I hired a pro to fix 2 key interfaces. For $10 a pop, they did a killer job.

Not bad for a tenner, right?

  1. 150 Tech Cards Unlocked!

While I wasn't busy arguing with Photoshop, I finished the last 10 Tech cards. Total count: 150.

Just to be clear: About 70% of these directly inherit/pay homage to classic Joker effects. ​ I know you love that sweet, sweet dopamine.

But CyberJoker isn't just "Jokers +1". It’s"Joker-style scaling + Texas Hold'em life-or-death gambling."​ You aren't just multiplying numbers; you're calculating odds and equity. That’s the hardcore experience I’m serving.

Back to work. Maybe next log I’ll have $15 per image. A dev can dream.
