I want this game on Steam now, even though I suck at scrabble. Would probably work great as a mobile port too, that's how I prefer to play Balatro

It will be on Steam in December or January with a tentative launch date in March/April. I'm considering a mobile port, I'll do it if there's enough interest but I don't want to split my focus right now as I'm gearing up for the PC release

I've played a few rounds. Very interesting take on Balatro - I don't think I've seen any Balatro-likes use non-math skills yet.

  • I had fun with the game.
  • Right now, I think it's too hard. I feel a little stuck.
  • I finished 4 games, until the end (lost them all).
  • I did not do anything with the bounty system. They seemed like things that would happen naturally in the game anyway.
  • The shop is fine. Easy to navigate, good amount of items.
  • The tutorial is good, but I am a bit familiar with games like this already.
  • The next move seemed to involve a lot of guesswork.
  • I do not like the music at all, and thought it was annoying, so I turned it off.

I think you have a very promising game. I already enjoyed it despite the punishing difficulty.

Hey, thanks for the detailed comment. The difficulty has been the hardest thing to nail down, I'll keep balancing it. Glad you had fun!

a shuffling animation would also be cool. also the music is really, really nice

i just noticed that i cant actually make 2 words at once in one turn… why..?

the game is really nice. some qof features like quickly seeing which letters are left and how many of them are left, maybe a bit more effects, for example tile shaking when scored…

overall it has a really unique and nice design, def giving old school game vibes. would buy for sure

Hey, thanks for the detailed feedback, really appreciate it. Making two words at once refers to using letters already on the board, not letters you're currently placing. I should make the tutorial clearer on that. I agree, the scoring effects don't have enough "weight" yet, I'll work on that. I'll also make the item description font bigger. The Steam page should be up in 3-6 months, I'll make another post on Reddit when it comes out. Thanks again!

i also think you should be able to make multiple words from a not yet created word(so lets say i add a far and i should be able to make for example fog from the f, assuming the f from far is a new letter on the board

font in desc of items should be bigger for sure
