Went to the doctor today. Told them I felt worn down, tired, and constantly stressed.
Doctor said: "I’ve got an easy fix. Check out this new game called Balatro. It’s a roguelike deckbuilder and the talk of the town. That’ll pick you up."
But doctor…

Wow, 100,000 followers for the silly card game!
As a thank you, here's a message from Jimbo.
It's completely unrelated, but you can all have a little Jimbo...as a treat.

Balatro launched one year ago today!
It's been a wild, banana-fueled ride and we wouldn't be here today without you, the players.
Your enthusiasm for the game has pushed it far beyond what we thought was possible.
Thank you for your incredible support!

The last few weeks have been pretty wild.
To everyone who picked up Balatro after seeing it at @thegameawards, we hope you're having an amazing time with it!
If this is your first time picking up an indie title, try to make it a habit!
There's some amazing stuff out there!

This is absolutely wild! Balatro is in the top 5 of Steam Deck’s most played games. What an honour to be alongside these incredible titles!
Can't help but notice all of these devs are friends of Jimbo... except one 👀 @pathofexile

Hey Jokers,
We regret to announce that after much internal debate, we’ve made the decision to part ways with @The_Ben_Starr as Jimbo.
He has become too mainstream for the brand.
Balatro is and always will be an INDIE game.

Did you know that triggering glass cards multiple times (With Hanging Chad or Hack for example) doesn't increase their chance of breaking?
It's still 1 in 4

Pro tip: If you set your game speed to 2x or 4x you can fit two to four times the "one more run"' in before finishing that task you've been putting off!

Whoah
I channelled my @BalatroGame addiction to producing this knit sweater. Going to be a prize for @GamesDoneQuick Summer 2025 - just barely missed the last event.
