Good luck!

sag@lemm.ee on 22 Apr 2024 11:48 collapse

Thanks (I remember you)

Blaze@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 22 Apr 2024 11:56 collapse

Me too ha ha

makyo@lemmy.world on 22 Apr 2024 10:58 next collapse

I try to get out but you drag me back in

Chariotwheel@kbin.social on 22 Apr 2024 11:24 next collapse

Where can I report this for drug promotion?

sag@lemm.ee on 22 Apr 2024 11:33 next collapse

It’s harder than Drugs. Only powerful person can handle this.

Our society will crumble once this gets on mobile.

Plays pretty well with steam link, but yeah, I’ll be in line for the mobile version as well.

Naz@sh.itjust.works on 22 Apr 2024 12:59 next collapse

What, is the game really that good?

Card games have never appealed to me personally

sag@lemm.ee on 22 Apr 2024 13:00 next collapse

It’s not a normal card game.

loobkoob@kbin.social on 22 Apr 2024 14:07 collapse

As someone who doesn't care for card games or poker: yes, it's really that good!

Check out Slice & Dice if you need a new drug. I still think Balaltro is ultimately better

xpinchx@lemmy.world on 22 Apr 2024 12:16 next collapse

Fun game!

lanolinoil@lemmy.world on 22 Apr 2024 12:48 next collapse

I feel like I play a good amount of rouge likes – The best ones I finish one time, but Balaltro and Slice & Dice I have finished like 7 times each. Such great games.

sag@lemm.ee on 22 Apr 2024 12:59 next collapse

Slice & Dice is also one of my favorite. I am also playing Maniac lately

GlenRambo@jlai.lu on 23 Apr 2024 16:47 collapse

You finished the full version of Slice and Dice? All modes, all difficulties? There’s so so so many :/

lanolinoil@lemmy.world on 23 Apr 2024 21:59 collapse

7 times meaning 7 of the models/difficulties

Speculater@lemmy.world on 22 Apr 2024 13:39 next collapse

I fucking hate the new updates, lol. Gold chip is brutal with temporary and rent cards.

simple@lemm.ee on 22 Apr 2024 15:33 collapse

Yeah the rates of new stickers should be a bit less but it’s way better than what it used to be, at least you’re not losing on ante 2 constantly due to bad rng

Shyfer@ttrpg.network on 22 Apr 2024 19:31 next collapse

Is this like Slay the Spire? I had a lot of fun with that rogue like deckbuilder for awhile.

the_gmg@lemmy.world on 22 Apr 2024 20:30 next collapse

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.

Glytch@lemmy.world on 22 Apr 2024 21:55 next collapse

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.

Dymonika@kbin.social on 23 Apr 2024 05:29 collapse

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.

I’ve been thinking about a Balatro community for a few weeks now, but life has been too crazy for me to create it. I’m really excited about this! If you’re looking for mods, please let me know. I’d be interested in helping out!

sag@lemm.ee on 23 Apr 2024 03:02 collapse

Yeah, I am looking for mods

coffee_with_cream@sh.itjust.works on 23 Apr 2024 01:53 next collapse

I like rogue likes and deckbuilders, but don’t know anything about traditional card games. should I get it?

Edit: nevermind, I bought it. It’s amazing 🤩
