Most people who liked balatro will probably also find dungeons & degenerate gamblers interesting which is coming out tomorrow. It’s a similar take on blackjack but with a few other ideas mixed in. I’ve played the demo and I’m looking forward to the full version

Gerudo ,

I recently got this game, and wow, what a time sucker. FINALLY won my first run yesterday. I’ve played a fair share of rogue likes, but this one really does feel fresh every game.

For anyone interested in game development: Balatro is made with Love2D. Which means the exe you download from steam can be unzipped using just about any zip program (might need to change the file extension from exe to zip) and the whole source code and 2D asset files are available for perusing. Not even obfuscated, full variable names and comments available to inspect as a real world example of a working game that has sold like hotcakes because the end result is good. Let it inspire you, let it teach you :)

Coming to Xbox with day one game pass? 🤞🤞🤞

ABCDE ,

It’s cheap.

Tagger ,

Is it on Xbox?

ETA: oh cool, it is! Still, probably going to wait for it to hit game pass - there’s more games on there that I want to play then time to play them, but if balatro gets on there I think it will move to the top of the list.

Zoldyck ,

Played it for some hours, but I don’t get the hype tbh. Maybe I’m missing something

Tagger ,

Hey, maybe it’s just not for you. that’s okay.

pastabatman ,

I’m super excited for the mobile version but also worried about my future productivity

lobut ,

There’s a converter on GitHub for it.

It works surprisingly well. I wanted to wait for the official but I have a flight coming up and this is gonna make it awesome.

I can’t wait to buy the mobile version and recommend it to all of my friends!

Good for them… Still have yet to win a run.

Cris16228 ,

How many hours in? Just curious, I’m bad at it but I got my first win ~16 hours in, are you doing something wrong?

I believe in you!

Balatro University has some good guides if you’re looking to improve.

Thanks for this! Saving and checking them but… I’m more a “Look at me playing a game and tell me what I did wrong at the end” kind of player

I was going to say “ahh, too bad the Internet isn’t really helpful for that method of learning”, but with AI who knows, maybe that’ll be something your computer can do before too long

Cris16228 ,

I don’t really understand your comment - sorry! - but I’ve played some games with the plasma deck and I still have to understand how to play exactly with it, I do good-ish at first but after a few rounds/first boss I do so little numbers and I can’t win, having someone watching what I do wrong and telling me would be great

ABCDE ,

I could have a go at that.

makeshiftreaper ,

For plasma specifically I’d focus on high additive chip jokers. While that’s normally bad advice, consider how crazy good a card with +50 mult on it would be. Now consider that a +100 chip joker is effectively a +50 chip/+50 mult (I know that’s not technically true but I’m illustrating a point). Also eventually you do hit a point of diminishing returns because plasma prevents you from having a super high multiplier or chips, so like every build, total score multipliers are the best

Cris16228 ,

The one who played it before me said it was best to get the X multi jokers so I always ignored the + multi ones and even the X multi final score… I tried but I don’t exactly know which ones do that. I should try with what you said and see if it works, thanks! Which poker hand is better with it?

Prunebutt ,

Maybe experiment a bit more. That way, you can deduce yousrelf what works and what doesn’t.

Cris16228 ,

The problem is, like I said in another comment, is I can’t understand exactly how to play the plasma deck but I’ll keep trying!

Prunebutt ,

Well, you must have already got quite a bit of experienge then, since that one get unlocked after the second most difficult stake, right? Have you tried focusing on chips, instead of mult? Chips are way easier to raise.

Cris16228 ,

No, the only suggestion I’ve got for the plasma deck is to try getting the X multi jokers but failed
