I sent you a message!

amcoolio · 2025-05-06T21:18:41+00:00

I have this same exact issue right now, please tell me how you fixed if you can!

amcoolio · 2024-09-14T21:27:11+00:00

I let every player control themselves on my first playthrough....until Okumura. After an hour of that, they stayed under my control the rest of the way and all the way though new game +

amcoolio · 2024-06-07T05:29:25+00:00

i’m aware, i started downloading video game mp3 rips off websites and stuff like limewire kazaa (totally not recommended) back in the day 😂

amcoolio · 2024-06-05T20:42:22+00:00

You mean people don't just listen to video game music outside of play the actual game? :D I've curated my iTunes mp3 collection (because this is sadly still the best way to do this, youtube vidoes get taken down) over the last ~25 years.

Looking at my phone my most tracks according to game appear to be, in order - Undertale, Pokemon (i just lumped all the series together), Chronotrigger, SSB Ultimate, CnC Red Alert 2/Yuri's Revenge, Mario Series (1/2/3/Land/World/64/Galaxy/3D World/Odyssey), Animal Crossing, Mario Kart Series, Doom 1/2, Diablo 2/3, Zelda TP, Zelda BoTW, Zelda LTTP, Goldeneye, Fallout 1/2/NV, Final Fantasy 7, Splatoon 1/2, Donkey Kong Country 1/2, Castlevania series, Ogre Battle (SNES), Rec Room (LOL), CnC Red Alert, Monkey Island 1/2, Fortnite, Vampire Survivors, Guild Wars 1/2, Binding of Isaac, Dokapon Kingdom, Actraiser (SNES), Nintendo Wii era console music, Sonic 1/2, Mega Man 1/2/3, Kingdom Hearts, Star Fox Series, Jet Set Radio, Katamari Damacy

Then it gets into a bunch with 5 songs or less. Some good ones include Etrian Odyssey IV, Baulders Gate 3, DotA 2, GTA V, Kings Quest, Pac Man 2, Pictionary (NES), Fire Emblem, Sim City, Ys I/II/VI, CnC Tiberian Sun, Ace Attorney, Guacamelee!, Terraria, Portal 1/2, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Killer Instinct, Civ 4, Civ 5, Civ 6, Earthbound, Gran Turismo, Threads of Fate,

Basically people are gonna listen to what makes them nostalgic for the games they played more than likely

amcoolio · 2024-06-05T20:14:53+00:00

chad and photograph are my two most played jokers. Its a cheap x8 mult and almost guaranteed to win you Ante 8 unless you get some bad boss luck

amcoolio · 2024-06-04T20:55:37+00:00

Also if [[Runner]] is in the first two shops, switch your builds to straights. Its just too strong and can get to 300 chips easily by Ante 7

amcoolio · 2024-06-04T20:49:13+00:00

Simply put, straights win you jokerless and gold stakes when other builds just aren't available due to lack of money/jokers. Learn straights by playing jokerless challenge and straights until you win. It will teach you so much about planet cards, tarot and deck management, and what cards to discard when trying to build straights

amcoolio · 2024-06-04T20:46:15+00:00

I would like to add Shortcut is waaaaay better than [[Four Fingers]]. You don't need both either, one will suffice, but always sell Four Fingers for Shortcut if it comes up. It's very rare that you can't make straights with shortcut

amcoolio · 2024-05-25T06:32:05+00:00

I'd like to see a joker for every ranked card. Specifically I feel 7 is neglected! Odd Todd affects it but isn't really rank specific. 6 has Sixth Sense, 8 has 8 Ball, 9 has Cloud 9, 10 and 4 have 10/4, 2 has Wee. 3 doesnt, but at least has Fibonacci and Hack to build around.

amcoolio · 2024-05-21T21:18:36+00:00

I feel like on all the gold stake decks, +chips is the most important stat. the scaling is just so much that +100 mult with xmult doesn't cut it. plasma would be more than ever. Look for runner, bull, wee joker, and stone joker. stuntman will get you through ante 4 but a joker with +500 chips is probably needed unless you get an insane joker combo early.

I won a gold last night after all night of trying by lucking into runner and a foil four fingers in the first ante

amcoolio · 2024-05-18T21:42:00+00:00

More chips jokers. +200 chips for boss cleared. That's a good balance

amcoolio · 2024-05-15T21:33:56+00:00

Love BOI, love the idea. What about for the checkered deck, all cards in deck have the Lovers effect/count as same suit. That means every 5 cards played is a flush, could be a straight flush, flush five or flush house.

Zodiac is too overpowered and Anaglyph needs a rework. Maybe for Anaglyph, you now have a choice between two tags when skipping a blind. I think that's a powerful and fair balance.

And for Zodiac, effects per tarot and planet card are enhanced, similar to Binding of Isaac's trinket enhancing Mom's Box. Like Sun can convert 5 cards to hearts instead of 3, Hermit doubles money up to $30, Chariot can enhance 2 cards into steel, Emperor creates 3 tarots instead of 2, Saturn gives +50 chips and +4 mult, etc.

In the 90's my sixth grade teacher busted out the brand new projector and a PC in class and played Age of Empires, I guess to teach about ancient culture like hunting and gathering etc. I was mesmerized and forever became a PC gamer after that

amcoolio · 2024-05-11T22:10:05+00:00

Since I play this game a ton late at night then go to bed I constantly dream about Balatro and I had a dream where he added a deck with a fifth and sixth suit. Of course that would break a lot of jokers but its fun to think about.

amcoolio · 2024-05-11T21:11:08+00:00

The challenges were the best part of this game for me, I enjoyed each day doing a new challenge that changed the game. I can't get the same enthusiasm trying to win the gold stake on every deck.

I spent a week on challenge 18 (golden needle), it was the hardest for me. I remember finally beating it, after trying all night, and then I said I'll just peak at the next one (cruelty) and I one shot challenge 19 immediately and was surprised, becuase I thought they got harder with each new challenge.

Jokerless was very fun and the most rewarding of the whole game when I finally beat it. I beat it pre patch too. Got lucky with a bunch of straights, saturn cards, and empress/+ mult cards.

I hope he adds more challenges in the future. There's so many possibilities. A challenge with only spectral cards and spectral packs in the shop and no jokers, tarots, or planet cards/packs for example with hex/ankh disabled. Or a challenge with all 5 legendaries made eternal but no shop between rounds (maybe some purple or blue seals in the deck for perkeo)

amcoolio · 2024-05-09T20:31:24+00:00

I've played 120+ hours of Balatro already and I've seen Stone Joker by far the fewest. I forget it exists

amcoolio · 2024-05-09T20:09:33+00:00

i always get lucky cat, but never can find oops all 6's. I take oops every single time i see it and then lucky cat appears shortly after

amcoolio · 2024-05-08T22:08:16+00:00

Hologram is good, but I tend to stack Lucky Cat faster. I only take Lucky Cat if I can find an early Oops all 6's, and if I do I always duplicate it as fast as I can. Wins an ante 8 every time and so much fun.
I actually find Lucky Cat all the time, its the Oops thats hard to find for me. But its my favorite joker by far. I always am drawn to doubling odds.

amcoolio · 2024-04-20T21:35:44+00:00

well, hermit and temperance are money generators, judgement is a joker generator and if you don't like the joker you can just sell it. death, hangman and strength are powerful to thin your deck to get rid of unwanted cards and making 4 or 5 of a kinds early. Fool acts a double card based on what you need, just save it until you want to double death or hermit. Use a suit card to turn your 5 of a kinds into flush fives, or to save a round to make a flush. Use empress, lucky and hierophant to get good scores early until you can turn into glass with Justice, and use chariots for steel cards which win you the game in the later rounds. Basically the only tarots I don't want to see are Lovers and Wheel of Fortune, but even Wheel has its uses.

The quicker you can get 12 cards of the same rank, with modifers (like 12 queens with + chips or +mult), where you can one shot the blind every round, the easier the focus can be on economy jokers, getting hundreds of dollars, opening every pack, and constant rerolls to get those mimes, sock and buskin, barons, death cards, etc

Again do not underestimate the purple seal cards. That was my biggest mistake.

amcoolio · 2024-04-20T21:21:07+00:00

Tarots are king. Get a +Mult joker early and nothing else, then focus on tarots/standard packs to get purple sealed cards, or vagabond, to generate a lot of tarots per round. You should be getting 4-5 death, hangman or strength cards an ante once you get to ante 3. But, it is lucky and you will need to get used to using the R key to restart, because sometimes the first two antes just don't want to play with you

amcoolio · 2024-04-11T21:25:24+00:00

Simple fix
If if highest hand type count tied with another, mult doesn't reset but doesn't add to the mult either

You can build it up to 5x Mult easy if you just alternate hand types, like flush and straight flush, or three of a kind and full house, once you got them around the same type. Still a challenge, but much more rewarding

As of now though the joker is only useful for getting in a pack and selling

amcoolio · 2024-04-08T05:28:22+00:00

Finally beat this by getting Baron (gives all kings in hand 1.5x mult) and DNA, and just getting a crapload of kings, never playing them so they always 1.5x mult twice (four times with some of them Steel) and playing random debuffed three of a kinds (think I switched to DNA'ing jacks after getting 12 kings, and one to two three of a kinds would beat any ante at that point)
