Thank you for reading this. Below is a quick summary of expectations and tips to contribute.
## Scope
We are limiting the scope of the project in order to not compete with the original Balatro and avoid a takedown by Playstack.
We limited the scope to 52 jokers and reached that limit so currently there is no plan to add more jokers.
See [the scope discussion](https://github.com/GBALATRO/balatro-gba/discussions/355).
## Art
Before contributing art or if you need art for a code contribution check the [existing additional art thread](https://github.com/GBALATRO/balatro-gba/discussions/131) and the [joker art discussion](https://github.com/GBALATRO/balatro-gba/discussions/69) (though as said no more jokers are currently planned).
Note that there are color limitations for sprites and backgrounds resulting due to the GBA hardware. Sprites may not use more than 16 colors per sprite including transparency.
Backgrounds may use more colors but notice that their palette is encoded in their PNGs and new colors need to be added manually to the palette. [See relevant PR](https://github.com/GBALATRO/balatro-gba/pull/350).
## CI Checks
On pull-requests, various checks will be performed:
1. **Formatting**: `clang-format` will be ran on every `.c/.h` file with [this configuration](https://github.com/GBALATRO/balatro-gba/blob/main/.clang-format). Failures will cause the CI to fail.
