A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
Rules
The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it's important to have a foundation to work on.
1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.
2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.
Formatting
Please include this following format in your post:
[link text](/c/community@instance.com)
This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't
You should also include either:
or instance.com/c/community
FAQ:
Q: Why do I get a 404?
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

Is this like Slay the Spire? I had a lot of fun with that rogue like deckbuilder for awhile.
Yes, but poker themed. 'Combat' is a round of poker themed solitaire with a point target. This is followed by an opportunity to spend money to upgrade your deck with fancy cards or modifiers. The point targets are constantly increasing, so you need to keep upgrading to complete a run.
If you like Slay the Spire, I would definitely give Balatro a shot.
To add on to what the_gmg said, there's a free demo of it on Steam that will give you a feel for it.
Not really. It's constant sudden-death; your run ends the moment you can't beat an enemy in X turns. The turn limit is your health that resets per conflict. I greatly disliked this aspect of it.
It's best described as Yahtzee with poker hands using a mutated deck that could have missing cards, duplicate cards, insane multipliers, etc.
