poo
I found the white whale (K765CCIH, 0.9.0p)
(Crazy Joker was a new discovery in that run)
I can't reproduce it :(
HOW
It's a known bug, but the developer doesn't know why it happens and it can't be recreated easily, hence white whale
🤔 Am I missing something? (Why it is counted as straight flush)
Smeared + 4 finger. You need any 4 stright cards for a straight, and any 4 red cards for a flush. If you fit both criteria, you have a stright+flush = straight flush
I'm def missing something, for straight flush (doesnt count 4 finger for now) I need 2,3,4,5,6 or A,2,3,4,5
yep, but with 4 finger, you can do 2345 instead. if 3 of those are red, you can add ANY other red card, and it'll become a straight flush
Oh, I get it now, it counts straight and flush separatly
yeah straight flush checks (is hand a straight) && (is hand a flush) so with smeared and four fingers it’ll trigger on stuff like that played hand
I got it like this after leaving the game open for 2-3 hours
I play on laptop and it was closed so it had to do something with putting it asleep probably
Sus
where did the file extension go
YEP xdd
I thought it was a toggleable option for a sec
"Disable fancy backgrounds"
it isnt anything mayor but it looked so weird
Got burglar from a tarrot and this happened
the burglar stole the portrait 😂
From a Judgement card?
yep
Was it in a tarot pack?
seed is {CMQTCKHB}, if that helps
i think so
Oh are you seeded?
yeahh, i was trying out a seed that was posted here
I'll send out a patch shortly
Want to mention the bug where winstreak doesn't reset when restarting (using R or options), only when actually losing a run through the defeat screen
Should be fixed if you download the update
dang that was quick, good job dude
I won a run and in my collection they jokers say they have stickers on them, but it's not showing in either the collection or when found in the game. All the jokers I checked in my collection say they have a white sticker, but it's not showing up on them
What is your pixel smoothing set to?
I am removing High, there are issues with it
Ah yeah, it's on high 🙂
AFKed it overnight and when I un right clicked the whole entire shop dissappeared for a minute and then turned back to normal, sadly barely any ifference between 10 minutes-8hours, but also still no game breaking glitches so thats good
idk who runs the wiki, if it's sombody here, but this should say 0.9.0q
Loyalty card does not have its remaining counter tick down/show that its activated if a hand that isn't allowed is played (such as playing less than 5 cards on this blind)
hitting esc same frame and clicking continue will still crash game
If you play a hand and select cards while its being played, your type of hand is blank
until any card is removed or added
I'm not sure if this was already addressed sorry if it was
But when on the Psychic, I was sidetracked and went to play 2 cards (by accident) and the play button had the animation like being clicked, however the cards didn't play and then the play icon was greyed out. I clicked a second time and then it played
yeah, that is intentional
It is a new feature, a warning if you forget the boss effect
Double click to continue making the same mistakes on Psychic you did before 
not sure if this is a bug but if you complete a to do list task with a debuffed card then it changes the poker hand for payout but doesnt give you money
That’s intentional it does it for anything that needs you to use hands
Oh what nvm
yeah it still did the 4x mult, just didnt show it was active
it tells you, "Must play 5 cards!" before un-greying out
Still having To-Do List reroll into the same hand
When you SL(save load) in final boss before playing hand, you will be in the last round of former boss. It doesn't correspond to first instinct
Hiker can add Chips to Stone cards, but the cards don't display +X extra chips in the tooltip like regular playing cards do.
If you get every rare joker and open a spectral pack which gives the "Gives rare joker, Sets money to 0" card the game just insta crashes
kinda funny
On 0.9.0q-demo
[AFF986R1]
lmfao the noise
played a 4 of a kind 2, now the card bar is still on screen and i cant click cash out
its still there when starting a new run
yea and when i beat this blind it does the same thing where i cant cash out
not sure if reported, or even a bug, but i believe in the patch notes that it states jupiter planet bonus per level increased, but I believe it hasnt
additionally, i think three of a kind base score increased
is it a typo or because of the pixelate effect? "difficuly" -> difficulty
literally unplayable

difficuly...
Not sure if this is a bug or intended, but you can make set seeds with periods.
on the topic of set seeds, pasting in the set seed ( (just one open parenthesis) crashes the game and gives a [string "..."]:0: unfinished capture error
Time to hack the game
and, on the topic of typos, the "it's" in "it's original state" in the "Sounds" page in the credits should have their apostrophes removed to state "its original state"
congrats on your two brand new Thunkbucks!
👏 congratz
I would like to report a potential bug.
When i start a new run from the game over/continue screen, there are no way to back out to main menu other than to Start a new run then quit it.
Maybe a back button will help.
I would like to show a situation that might lead to a bug
if you hold a card and then hit esc you can hold the card in the settings
and it will move cards in the game
if you move the card back and forth
The music in Balatro only plays on my machine when I have no external audio devices plugged in as default devices when starting the game. If I plug in my USB headphones, I can hear the sound effects but not the music, and there is no option in-game to set my audio device. If I start the game without them plugged in, then the music plays from my laptop speakers, but continue to play out of my laptop speakers instead of my external audio device when I plug them in.
this worries me, if local is doing a regex on the seed as a string or something 💀
this is more likely a bug: selecting "Seeded Run" but not entering a seed causes the seed to be empty (yet still a set seed)
This bug has been brought up a few times. Should an empty seed be invalid? Should it grey out the play button? Should it just fill in with a random seed?
random seed would probably be best, but maybe entering a space could allow for an empty seed
would be interesting to play that seed as it doesn't break anything
imo, hash("") is valid, much like how hash(" ") is also valid (but different!). however, I can definitely see why an empty seed could be confusing, and removing one valid seed out of billions isn't a big deal
IMO, greying out the button would be best - if the user wants a random seed, they should unselect "seeded run"
To me this makes the most sense, but I can also forsee frustration when people don't understand why they can't click "Play"
I was thinking the same
alternatively: embrace it, and have the blank seed be somehow special
Oops! All Jimbo
Terraria does something similar with its seeds - some are "special"
I remember Isaac doing the same - fun easter egg
It's a maybe for 1.0
POLYCHRO ah dammit.
RAINBOW!
NEGATIVE works tho
an all-negative run is actually difficult as jokers are really expensive, hm
back on topic: I think the current behaviour, "grey out Play" and "make blank seed a random seed" are all okay
AND wheel can't negative a joker
just had a run lose to the psychic with a bug, played a hand with 2 hands remaining, it counted points once, added it to my score, then counted the points again but didn't add them to my score. Then game over happened since it thought I played twice
I think this happened because I selected play hand twice quickly on controller but I am not sure
I figured it out the bug
and it gets crazier
@heavy mauve
its not specific to the psychic
I just mash play hand after letting go the button for the quick deck peek
it eats your hands and prevents you from going to the next blind without reloading the save. So either way you lose money from the missing hand or you just lose on the spot
what version is your game on
it's on the main screen
that's quite not good as that is the patch that was supposed to finally have fixed all that
locallllll
yeah this should be fixed asap it seems pretty big
there was a problem with it before but that was fixed, are you on the deck?
steam deck?
yes
no, pc with a controller
oh it looks like local is back online, should I ping him for this big bug?
Just make the selected seed read "Enter seed" if it's empty, like you've never typed in the field before
well I have to go to sleep now but I am going to ping about this since this seems like a major bug
@quartz pond large bug discovered (I think it might be similar to that one on the experimental patch) see above to see how I caused it.
apolgies if the ping is unwarranted
arent you usually supposed to have info for what cards you have in your hand, whered my cards go?
idk how many cards i got, usually they're just in run info
hover over your deck
Click on the deck to see remaining cards and full deck
holy shit
it's been moved
you can now also see what's left of your deck to draw which is great
#🧪・experimental message This is all the changes for the most recent update
in case there was something else you missed
My save corrupted after rerolling twice and trying to continue via the "run options" -> "continue" -> "play"
Now everytime I try to load into it, the game crashes.
Try checking integrity of the files through steam
I managed to recreate what I think is the same crash consistently. Seems to be something with exiting after rolling though I can't pinpoint exactly what. Even if you don't buy golden joker it crashes. In another seed I tried just buying Overstock and rolling in the first shop but it was fine. I can also send the full crash run but the file is way too big for discord. I also tried checking integrity but that didn't fix the issue.
Zany joker showed up in my shop, while I had Zany joker equipped?
the flames from a one shot hand stay for a bit after changing to a hand that doesnt one shot, not major but prob better if they went away instantly
Known bug
Unsure why it would even happen
?
oh
oh shoot
I will experiment to se if I can replicate
quick deck peek button?
OH MY GOODNESS
This glitch works for any blind
its worst now LOL
uh oh!
its the exact oposite bug, it only works if you play a correct hand
I replicated it only once, and cant again, maybe it was only that boss blind for some reason?
nvm got it again
LOL
i had four fingers and had a hand like akqj2, with the ace, king, jack, and two being clubs and the queen being a diamond. the hand counted as a straight flush, which seems unintentional. maybe the game checks for a straight and four of the same suit separately?
that’s correct, you had a straight and a flush
it seems odd though, i’d think the straight would have to be a flush rather than separate reqs
Got a crash here, left a game, then came back and now every time I try to continue the game, it crashes as the shop loads in
It crashes at this spot right here
yeah
99% sure its a known but Im not a mod so if they ask about it Im wrong, if not I guess Im right
Ah ok sorry
In other news the blind seems to be acting weirdly in the top left
I did a bit of experimenting to figure out why the glitch is happening and can safely say it happens because the game "prevents" you from playing hands after doing a quick peek of the deck for about a second
in this time you can press the play hand button to play the same hand multiple times, and then the game goes crazy on that
this is why it also worked with the old psychic
because that causes you to pause playing hands when you don't play 5
(never mind the bug I was going to mention has already been reported)
I have an issue with the game and the auto HDR setting on my pc. Whenever i exit the game (this only happens with balatro) my screen goes black for a second and then my screen is alot darker and keeps flashing between regular brightness and dark depending on when/where my mouse is moving. The only way to fix this ive seen is to not have auto HDR on or to turn it off and on again. Hopefully it gets a fix once the main game is out.
at high game speeds, the fire texture blocks how many chips i get from the hands i play which can be quite annoying
was trying to mess around with an autoclicker, was autoclicking a card when i entered shop and this happened
its permanent
the game does NOT like autoclickers
i have 8 cards on hand even though i have juggler??
did you get those negatives from the spectral card
oh yeah i did that makes sense :3
the spectral card that gives you -1 hand size permanently
thank u and forget about that screenshot lmano
i thought it gave me -1 hands, not -1 hand size
autoclickers are a race condition's worst nightmare
Fixed in the new ver
I went to try and reproduce, and from what I can see the seed "TUNHDCVI" just sorta lets you continue after verdant leaf 
Should I ping thunk for it?
Might as well, he is DnD so he should just see it when available. @quartz pond bug where at least 1 specific seed just doesnt stop you after ante 6 verdant leaf
no specific technique required to reproduce, its an easy seed with blueprint/dna/dusk/burglar/etc all the goodies, for whatever reason you just can keep playing lol
idk what happened, put my laptop in sleep mode yesterday and came back to this
I put my laptop to sleep once and when I went back the game just crashed
seed didnt work for me, got to a billion on the final hand and it just stopped like its supposed to
Interesting! What was your joker/deck setup?
I think both myself and the original bug reporter were playing with blueprint+dusk and playing lucky aces, im wondering if something about that combo caused it
It worked lol
i was doing glass aces, maybe its a lucky specific thing
i had blueprint dusk scholar and constellation as my jokers on the final boss
did it with lucky aces and same thing, guess the bug doesnt work for me
did u do it on my seed?
I tried with glass only an it worked too
how does this count as a straight flush? is it some weird interaction with the 4finger joker?
A straight flush is any played hand that is both a straight and a flush
There are a few different interpretations of what should constitute a straight flush but this one is the most lenient/interesting for strategy imo
Although maybe not first instinct
was just surprised, sicne with the spade as the 4th card in a different color it shouldnt technically have counted
weird interaction yea
This is the point of the joker
when fighting the wheel, if you use a tarot card (like the world) on a face down card it will show you the card.
from the way the animation looks i don't think it's intentional
Bug, but being left in bcuz its funny #📜・bugs-old message
lol nice
i have something else, and i'm not sure if this is a bug or intentional. but i was under the assumption that joker cards proc from left to right. i have stencil on the left and raised fist on the right. with my assumption, this is a mistake because stencil will proc first and fist will go second, however, that was not the case. stencil went last even though it was on the left.
for whatever reason raised fist procs right after the hand is scored, regardless of its position
so its unrelated to stencil
it acts as if its being proc'd by a card in hand like scary face or scholar
got it, thanks.
It's confusing in the demo but the order of ops is:
All Playing card triggers (and related jokers) > All held in hand card triggers (and related jokers, like steel/raised fist) > All normal jokers
ah so fist procs like steel cards do
did you guys patch the bug where you could play multiple hands on any blind
nvm I see it was fixed in patchnotes, also it wasnt just controller, I got it multiple times on pc before it got patched

your out of space in your inventory
But typically, tarot offers the option to buy and use immediately, if the inventory is full. Bypassing the inventory altogether?
Oh weird when was that one recorded?
yeah the whole purpose of buy & use is to skip the need for inventory space
definitely weird tho cuz that was a bug for a very brief time and then got patched lol
Well that is what I am wondering
yeah i figured that's why you asked
It was at some point during the n patch I think, should be easy enough to replicate
Recorded a week or so ago I think
Somehow got past the demo's final boss during a run. No spam clicking or funny business, just played out a very large hand and it went through to the shop. Is this a known issue? An easter egg?
I have a Bug where the game crashes if I want to continue my run in the Shop, like the shop layout appears for a split second and then it crashes
this is similar @vagrant bramble
yup, that seems about right
not a seed issue in my case because I played it again and it didn't replicate
When did this happen?
two hours and forty minutes ago, after the most recent update
also happened to me
just played the game and it went to 90k verdant leaf
After winning or losing against the proper final boss?
winning
Seeded?
Yes
I wasn't even looking at the game when it happened so i don't know what i clicked
Did it go to the cash out screen > shop > next ante?
Can you verify game files and see if it downloads an update?
yep i have it recorded
lemme check
nothing happened
yeah the game just proceeds like normal
Can you dm me the recording?
oh god i have to cut an hour and a half long recording, but yeah
Oh no don't worry about it then
this could be relevant. I took a snip of my score to show a friend so I was tabbed out when the menu normally loads
But i'll give it this: it's INSANELY fast
use LosslessCut for local video chopping
no, i sent it already
just got this bug
and my inv wasnt full
Was playing a run and ran into this bug. I think its because of the smeared joker and four fingers.
left one a bug (from what I see), right one isnt
makes sense the longer i played the more i was debating whether it was actually a bug or not
All cards should have scored in both instances, so yeah that left one is odd…
potential bug: i've been rolling through a lot of seeds recently and i haven't seen any polychrome joker tags, which is unusual because i've seen everything else several times
also i tried a recorded seed for the tag in #1156061354076155944 and it doesn't work either
lol
do you have polychrome in the collection on your save?
i didn't start seeing poly tags until I got one through wof
my game crash whenever I tries to continue this game
continueing in shops crashing should be fixed soon
its been a plauge on our lands for far to long
Curious about this bug - does it crash with a grey screen or does it freeze like that?
freeze like that (in my case)
@quartz pond anything about this?
I figured it out, this only happens when you dont have a joker when the shop begins so it doesnt register you have a joker after you bought DNA
Hey I'm new here but I have been playing the demo for a while. I ran into this weird glitch where when I would close the game, the monitor that I played on would for some reason still have the glitching/crt effect from the game. I tried taking a screen recording but it wouldnt show up. I saw that there was an update recently, but I didn't see anything abt it in the patch notes so I just thought I would bring it up. It might be an isolated issue with my PC but it happened multiple times and wouldn't go away until I restarted my PC. Anyways love the game! So excited for the full release! 🙂
that definitely sounds like a graphics issue 
wouldn't be surprised. I just upgraded my gpu and had to work out some kinks 0:
have you run ddu and done a clean install of your GPU drivers?
not sure what ddu is but I have removed old drivers and installed new ones
typically, when installing a new GPU, if you'd like to be sure that it's a mostly clean install, you should use DDU: https://www.wagnardsoft.com/content/DDU-Guide-Tutorial

No generally you are unable to find a duplicate of something you already own (which includes unused consumables like tarot/planet cards)
huh
There are jokers in the full game that let you get duplicates but by default it's not meant to happen, this is a known bug with an unknown cause
My white whale...
I literally changed the code last patch to see if that would fix it... Nope!
hey just a little glitch i've found: when you full screen, it sets to a default of I think 1380 x 480 or something like that
as in I set it to 1920x1080 and it resets instantly when you fullscreen to some resolution
i would record it, but i'm kinda busy rn
This is a bug with SDL and windows - it renders at a lower resolution due to windows scaling.
It still renders full screen but if you set the program to run in 'high dpi mode' it should have correct resolution
oh ok got it, thank you
Yes! We have two bananas
don’t complain - embrace the banana
shouldn't have reported it, it should be a feature
My current run fell afoul to this bug. Do you want the save file to test on it?
its not very hard to replicate, its just the tarot card crash again
reroll > buy joker > continue > crash
Ahh the reroll was the issue? good to know
although it doesn't happen sometimes? one second
wasn't recording? Bruh
window capture doesn't work with this game apparently
@quartz pond
ok yeah for some reason this doesn't apply on small blind or big blind
only after boss blind (?)
weird
sorry to bother, but how would you do that?
Is enhancing a card supposed to reset the chips added by hiker?
So when I want to continue this game, the screen froze and the only way out is to exit the game.
I believe not, local will confirm and mark your question with a bug emoji if confirmed
in the demo i skipped a blind that gave me the negative tag but it didnt activate when i went in a shop and is just sitting on the right side of the screen
and it is staying there over the next few blinds, it has yet to disapear
it disapeared after the big blind on ante 2
likely had no jokers in the shop, so nothing for it to proc on
i did have jokers in those shops
can you send the seed?
how do i get the seed?
options button
im seeing some weird line when transitioning to the main menu
like an artefact or smtng like that
like this
those are the crt effect
that's intentional I think
doesnt feel like it
it do be intentional
I figured out you can do the bug where you drag your autoclicker on the cards back and forth works for jokers, make sure you dont sell your jokers when attempting this and its just a visual bug so it wont change anything gameplay wise.
green jokers
I was getting a lot of negatives to bunch them closer together
Video a lil laggy but I managed to glitch 2 on top of eachother
bug: holding R while on a seeded run no longer restarts the seed; it will now roll a completely new seed
wait that exists
Maybe this is intended behavior, not sure, but I used an Empress on a Stone Card that was generated by Marble Joker, and it turned it into a 5 of Clubs with +3 Mult.
yeah every card can have 1 enhancement (bonus, glass, gold, lucky, mult, steel, stone, wild), 1 edition (foil, holo, polychrome, negative), and 1 gold seal - Brightqwerty (Luke)
so you can't have mult stone card
Visual bug with sliders: when value is too low, game engine resorts to the default sprite for rendering
I think even stone cards have underlying suits and ranks that you can't see. This is probably randomly chosen for marble joker. Adding the mult effect removes the stone, revealing the card's true rank and suit.
This explains why the stone cards made by marble are still grouped as a specific suit in the deck view.
you are correct
I'm famous lol
lol
after wakeup from sleep?
try alt tabbing out then back in again if that's the case
nah I went off to chat for 1 minute
it came back a few seconds later
a stone card that is created with the joker during verdant leaf doesnt get debuffed, while all other cards from previous rounds do, is this a bug or intended
Probably a bug since the wording says ALL cards but Im not mod so wait for one of them
i think this bug has been arround since the beginning of the demo, but i hadnt heard about a fix in the recent patches.
(Discord mods aren't part of the dev team, except for localthunk)
HXFT6NT9
even with the same seed, it's hard to recreate the white whale bug
do you remember if it was your first time seeing a golden joker (i.e. it wasn't in your collection, "Not Discovered")?
What portal did I step into...!
sorry for length, was expecting more to happen
after the change at 1 minute mark not much changed in the video
1 minute after this video ended the background changed to this color
when did you buy the golden joker
its a chameleon
no chameleon emoji D:
1 bowl of cereal later no change, so Ima continue my run
The background is now permanently sligtly whiter than normal
maybe its because I was fighting water, maybe on psychic it would be yellow
it do make tarot card bacground kinda cool
same with spectral packs
sorry for speaking so much
verdant leaf same background as this
its a permanent glitch, Ima relog whole game and see if anything changes
it fixed after relog whole game
I think it's that OpenGL broke
the game uses OpenGL shaders
which are basically tiny programs that handle how the screen is drawn
the background swirl is entirely calculated using shaders, for example
ok
5 copies of the same card - shouldn't it be a flush house?
the white whale strikes again...
my hypothesis was right
thats what happens if you shrink the height of your tab but not the width
(I have no clue why there is a balatro at the top, the one Im playing is the middle one)
I have a hypothesis on how to do a white whale
Five of a kind is not a full house in the same way that a trapezium is not a parallelogram
not at all, otherwise 4oak would be a two pair
full house is two separate things, pair and 3oak
forgot that I had balatro open and came back to this?
Right clicking to deselect all cards does not do anything when a hand is in the animation of being played
Noticed this during a personal best speedrun lol (didn't lose me any time though)
https://youtu.be/redQA4pR-7s?si=-eMjZvIC8dEZuHlm&t=320
As shown here (I was trying to right click to deselect the queen but nothing happened)
Great seed, but a relatively poorly executed run. Hopefully shows the potential of RS skipless with these large mistakes.
I got the same crash after I put my PC to sleep while the game is still running
My argument is that if the hand fulfills multiple types you should choose the best one
If a hand is both a 5oak and a flush house it should be a flush house because flush house is better than 5oak
the game consistently only calls flush house when the pair and trips are different

Hey, so, I've been redirected here from reddit. My game won't start and all I see is this error, all I can do is press escape
me too
delete settings.jkr inside the folder %APPDATA%\Balatro\, likely located at C:\Users\Weesor\AppData\Roaming\Balatro
actually
back it up beforehand (rename it?)
I assume screenshake was updated and now old settings don't work
@muted ibex @rugged vine have you launched the game before?
yes
sorry, to rephrase: have you launched the game without encountering an error before?
if you get exactly the score amount needed to beat the boss you dont get fire but if youre 1 over you do
first blind is easiest to achive this
300 needed to progress
if you get full house with two face cards and three 5s
then you get score amount exactly but no fire
I believe that's likely working as intended - it's been mentioned a few times
I agree but tbh I feel like it should be changed since to most people the fire represents "this hand could beat the blind by itself" which an exact score does
to the player there is little functional difference between 301 beating the blind in a single hand and 300 beating the blind in a single hand, so the fire only applying to 301+ feels unintuitive
as a fellow programer i feel like someone accidentally only had > instead of >= in that line of code
when stone cards get extra points added to them by hiker(think thats the joker) they dont show up on the card [but it does when they are played]
My game crashes, when loading the save file (only on this seed, and only after using save-load trick for reversing actions in the shop). I have the Reroll Surplus voucher, but reroll cost is 5$, maybe that's why it breaks? Also, it didn't crash the last time I tried the trick in the shop
(not sure if it's a bug, but it kinda doesn't make sense with the voucher description)
Clearence Sale applies to the jokers you already have/bought, making temperance essentially worse if you buy it.
Temperance gives you the sell price of all your jokers, cheaper shop means cheaper joker and also cheaper sell price. for normal jokers it isnt that bad, but for tarots the sell price goes doen from 2 to 1 and same with planets.
the white whale 
dunno how it happened, but i'm against verdant so i don't want to sacrifice my run to check if i can take both
(localthunk has been trying to fix this issue for a while now, very hard to track down apparently)
You can indeed take both
There are intended methods of getting duplicate jokers in the full game so all jokers are designed to work with multiples, you just arent supposed have them show up by default / in the demo
oh savescumming in the shop puts you in the last hand of the previous fight, had to go to main menu to find this discord
let's see if i find it again
yup
No, this is the first time I'm trying to launch it on this PC
This worked, thanks 👍
Yet another bug, this time while checking out the decks
Couldn't printscreen, the screen went black when attempting to capture it
continuing game at a shop after a boss crasheds the game
If you dont mind me asking, do you know what blind you were at when you got the white whales (preferabbly both but its ok if you cant remember)
Weirdly enough, this bug fixed itself after I've unlocked the "Crystal ball" deck
crystal ball deck? there should only be red, yellow, and abandoned decks
Both white whale were after the plant blind, right before verdant.
Pretty sure
ok
i assume they mean voucher
crystal ball voucher doesnt get unlocked in the demo, unless they mean they took it for the first time?
(and there is a deck that starts with crystal ball)
Just recreated your scenario (reload on shop after boss), and no - it works fine. Also, it seems like my crash happens specifically on reloading after spending money on reroll with sale
you also have to reroll I believe
I forgot to say that
Im bad at explaining things LOL
alright, that's some weird bug lol
ikr
has anyone gotten a white whale ON a set seed?
the only similarity between 6 cases is that
- you get a joker
- you reroll/win the next blind
- find the same joker
and that they are all not set seeds
I got 8 cards after playing one of my hands even though I should have 10 (ignore how bad the round looks, I'm trying chips only lmao)
lol
are you out of cards in your deck
never had that happen. I figured it just auto-reshuffled STS style.
I once did something similar
Well now I know the deck doesn’t auto reshuffle lol
lol, thats always good info
lose
lmao
should probably add it to the tutorial
Coincidentally enough, that’s the deck I’m using
that's happened to me, u just lose
Yeah. Not sure it is a bug tbh. Just need to play your cards right
Nah, just my lack of awareness getting to me once again.
Found out while i used the smudge joker.
I selected a straight that because of the smudge joker was a straight flush. The hand registered on the left where you see the chips x mult.
Sold the smudge joker and even though my hand was a normal straight it was still registered as a straight flush
For the final boss in the demo could be useful lol
did it only look like straight flush or also score as straight flush
Score
Showed the chips x mult of straight flush
Found out because my straight was much more powerful and wanted to sell the joker cuz I realized it nerfed me
this is a surprisingly common white whale for me
Evener Stevener
what happens if you buy a white whale? also dna + blueprint pog
Im so confused how you are getting this consistently
do you spam play or cash out button
You just get a duplicate joker, in the full game there are intended methods to get duplicate jokers so it doesn't break anything, you just aren't meant to get duplicates by default
also when was that one ante/blind wise
Ante 3
No not really, though it seems to happen only when you have the bigger shop
Try looking into that
Ok Ill tell you the basics of what Ive learned
Whenever you get a shop and have a joker
there is a SMALL chance that you reroll and it is the same joker
and if you buy the first of that jokeer, and only on non-set seed runs the 2nd one stays
Wdym reroll?
reroll the shop
No these all happen on the first screen of the shop
You can see I didn't reroll it
They ALL
all jokers are set in a set order
Happened on non rerolled shops
so if you reroll you will get the same shop as if you beat the next blind
yeah
I probably should have asked this earlier but did you get these 1 shop after another
hmm
my theory may be debunked then
Im assuming you didnt save the seeds
if you want I can show you where I have gathered my info
some people get them more then others, near 100 hours and none for me so far
is Judgement intended to not be able to buy & use
you can buy and use it weird
I just sold a joker to make space. Could that be why it's not showing up?
there is a glitch that you cant buy and use with WoF, maybe you got it on a judgement card
that could be it
This is a bug for sure
bugs these days
it showed up later and I can buy & use
maybe it had to do with my consumables being full?
that shouldnt be it...
imo probably related to this bug
did you enter shop with 5 jokers?
yes
could it be things that interact with the jokers don't like the number of jokers changing?
maybe it didnt give the option to buy& use since you already had 5
then after you sold the joker it didnt check again
same thing with some poker hands not updating correctly
Like a bug someone said earlier today, they had a straight flush and sold smear, after that they shouldnt have the straight flush, but instead just a straight. it was still counted as a straight flush
nvm yesterday. #📜・bugs-old message
oh wtf
cant play or discard so doesnt change anything really
I repeated it again so it isnt that bad to replicate
I did it with the options button now
I picked up a card as it was going into play
probably already seen and know it doesnt actually change anything but gotta know for myself
another thing is you can be in the fight but cant see already used/seen cards cause it thinks your not there
I had a bug that if u quit the game after last blind of 5th ante, when u reload ur game u go back to the last hand you played in that blind
dunno if i made myself clear
like u lose the progress of the last shop and the hands played in ante 6
The buy and use appears to be based on number of jokers on shop entry I think
thunk i know youre probably already trying to address this bug, but
double double jokers
I didn't even notice the double constellation
get 5 scary face for halloween
Not sure if it's been reported but i got a bug today that caused all my sound to cut out until i restarted, not sure what caused it
yeah
you can scum the entire leaf
That hand you played is insane
new record score? 👁️
Seems like the game fucks up a lot when you close your computer then return to it later
Hello! I just downloaded and tried to play the demo but I'm getting just a black screen, though the music works. I've seen a few others who had this problem and I read the pinned thread about updating AMD graphics drivers, but I don't have AMD graphics. My graphics are "Intel UHD graphics 620" and "Radeon RX 540 Series." Both of these drivers say they're up to date, and I'm not sure where I'd go to manually update them if I need to do that. I'm using just a laptop that I mainly use for school and work, but it can usually handle games that aren't majorly graphically intensive.
The issue is with some versions of AMD graphics drivers being 100% unable to visually render any Love2D game (the framework the game is made in). This has been fixed in all their newer versions of graphics drivers - but you would need to search for your specific device and find the newest drivers online from AMD. Windows will not update the drivers automatically and will say that they are 'up to date' unfortunately
Radeon RX 540 is an AMD gpu
oh it is? Okay!
I was playing a run yesterday, and I was going for lots of aces. I used death tarot card on a 7 diamonds and an ace clubs. The ace clubs used to be a 2 spades, but i had already used death to turn it into an ace. When I used death, instead of turning the 7 diamond into an ace, it reverted the ace back to a 2 of spades.
tl dr: i think using death on already transformed cards can be buggy
yay it worked! Thanks for your help. I didn't know radeon was an AMD, and didn't want to try to install drivers for something I didn't have. Super excited to play now :)!
based on the wording you chose a 7
and an A
with a death card and then the A
turned into a 2
???
yes exactly
what happened to the 7
?
and i think it would be a good idea to reproduce the error with most preferably the seed you used in the run
thats rough
?
look bottom right
whre
whre
I sure hope someone gets fired for this blunder
dont say that D:
im a little confused, why does this count as a straight flush?
four fingers messing with it lmao
it's a straight, and recognizes the 4 spades (flush)
so the game thinks it's a straight flush
its not a bug, its a mechanic
it's a mechanic that makes it look like a bug
also please move your stencil to the right ;-;
ikr
they have a ride the bus you just cant see it
even if they had a ride the bus stencil should still be on the right
true
not if you're trying to farm
oh shit lool i moved it right after this screenshot/message my bad ahaha
it stayed the same
i might try to reproduce the bug but im also busy :/
I made a Straight Flush with Four Fingers with the cards AH, 2H, 3H, 4D and 5H
I don't think a 4 of diamonds plays in the Flush part of that hand
It played both sequence and suit-wise
Seed is YLTMGTSV and it happens on Round 3
That’s a legitimate way to get a straight flush
K
Q
J
10
4
is a royal flush
Intended, the 5H could’ve also been literally any rank as long as it was hearts and you’d get a straight flush
interesting, that threw me off for a bit
thanks for clarifying
oh i see now, it meets both the straight and flush requirements
Hey everyone, just wondering if there's a proper procedure for reporting bugs? I found that the cursor on the controller can go way off screen and it looks hilarious, but I can't tell if it's been said before.
I reported that one a while ago, and Local noticed
so it's known
Alright nice
Oh yeah, I never tried on the home screen but yeah I can do that anywhere
I was playing for a bit and sometimes the music would stutter before looping
four fingers is making it coutn as a straight flush
flush = 4 cards (7, 5, 4, 3)
straight = 4 cards (7, 6, 5, 4 or 6, 5, 4, 3)
so it plays both hands (flush and straight), so it makes them count as a straight flush
Dont know if it's a issue with my computer but sometimes the music stutters a bit. Its not too often, but often enough for it to be annoying
probably hardware issues
i played on a pc and on a low end device
my music does stutter a bit in the low end device but not my pc
depends i guess
This is a known bug but Dev isn't sure how to solve ATM. It's a tough one as it doesn't happen every time the track loops so to sit and watch the track loop is tedious to try and catch the bug
i thought it was intentional lol, i like it
It does fit the glitched effects i sometimes get
Fun Fact: when you lose, egg gains +3 value
I figured this out by losing to ante 4 big blind by 67 chips
(that or im going insane... again)
I saved/quit during the next shop. Then when I went back in...it crashed, and it keeps crashing, no matter how many times I load the game/restart it :(
@quartz pond
I would send a screenshot of what it looks like when I hit play (half the shop menu comes up), but snipping tool won't even capture it
Ah, it might have been
If that's the case, apologies for the ping
Rip, had a great run going with ride the bus/smeared joker/chalkboard, was going for my record
Ah well, punishment for save scumming/going back
I realized that I wanted to buy a flush house card, lol
But I realized it too late
https://youtu.be/6o5nM4JoCzg?t=2346 is this a bug? why are both aces active?
no clue if its a bug or feature
definitely helpful 😏
because then which Ace would the game play
true
I personally think that's a bug
I just got this also
so a 4-card-straight with 1 card that's equal to one of them, right?
makes sense that it wasn't noticed before because why would anyone play that extra card unless they want to play it as a free discard
yeah i do it as well but i'm not sure i ever discarded a card that was also part of the straight
This is intended - since both aces can be used to make the straight it includes both of them
alright! thanks for confirming
same thing with my 3 then
new strat just dropped
might be able to use this by making many aces in the abandoned deck (and get lucky by getting four fingers)
just wanted to test limits of game, and game crashes if your hand consists of foil/holographic/polychrome cards 🙃
LOL
how do you have almost $500,000, over 30 jokers, and 26 rounds
they are using cheat engine to test
makes sense
Egg value changes when you lose, doesnt help you but funny to see
is this a bug?
There are likely 2 cards that you have discarded that were drawn face down and never revealed
oh ok
Should Blueprint interact with Golden Joker?
no
Quick double check for me but I don't believe this is a royal flush:
I suspect this is due to straights being able to be completed with 4 cards, and 4 of 5 are the same suit
Hey folks, I closed the game out mid-run earlier in the week and haven't been able to play since, it takes a while to boot, and then I get this screen when launching:
Did the classic verify files, even did an uninstall/reinstall, no luck
Unfortunately this is a bug in your settings.jkr file, you'll need to go to Appdata/Roaming/Balatro and take a backup of it/delete it
Then it should boot, you'll have to redo the tutorial though
Seems to have worked, thank you!
No cursor on PC in Fullscreen or Borderless
had two mice running on the same computer, one wired and one wireless. upon unplugging the wireless device mid-game (while a hand was playing) the game stuttered and the next hand did not have play or discard options
my game suddenly crashes every 2 minutes, dont get a crash screen or anything...
Reason: Bad word usage
pretty repeatable
can tell its after ante 6 cause I lost and on ante 7 + defeated by test small blind
Also doesnt change reset win streak since you technically won
what word
Reason: Bad word usage
cool

Hello! Not sure if this is a bug or more of a suggestion, but when using a touchscreen to highlight a potential item to buy, you don't get the pop-out tooltips.
hi there, absolutely adoring the game!
not so much a bug but more a question. I started playing yesterday on my steamdeck and spent hours and hours playing away and having a blast. I then installed and loaded the game up on my pc this morning only to find all my save data is gone. The game seems to be listed as having steam cloud saves, both of my systems have it enabled, and i've tried all kinds of fixes to no avail. google has done little to help so I came here to see if people had talked about this issue, but found little of help by searching both "steam deck" and "cloud". Notably, unlike other games that are listed as having cloud saves, i noticed the properties menu does not have a check box (pictures included). but the game on launch for both deck and pc says it synchronises with the cloud.
can anyone help me at all, or let me know the status of cloud support?
(the more i look into file locations and piece things together I'm assuming the demo has no cloud saves, can anyone confirm?)
This is misleading TBH
I think demos are not even allowed to have cloud saves
maybe I'm wrong though
my theory is that its pulling from the storepage which intends to have cloud saves on release, as that also says it has cloud saves
yes
the tags are for the full game
the demo doesn't have cloud saves yet
Steam ALWAYS says "syncing cloud" when you play a game, regardless of whether it does anything or not
Very minor bug, but using a planet card mid round while having a hand selected clears the score multiplier display back to zero.
thanks for the help!
yw
this is a very odd bug, but when using a controller with balatro after some time there's only music playing. There are no sound effects besides the occasional money jingle
I opened a tarot pack and clicked a card as it was going to the deck
and it opened the deck peek thing
(easier to test on 0.5x speed)
I got a bug with telescope
My full house is my most played hand, and I have the telescope voucher. When I bought a celestial pack, I didn't get Earth (full house)
idk why
Yeah telescope isnt working
I'm currently unable to click cash out; it doesn't seem to register me hovering over the button, either
alt-f4ing did fix the issue, though
thanks gloomy for reminding me to submit this bug report
CRASH BUG: while completing any blind if u spam the collect money button aswell as the button t start the next rund but n controller the game cannot load the shop at all and crashes
video evidence of it happening: https://youtu.be/fp-GmOHWjBY?si=_Oks6Z7Y-qLNs1k-&t=240
►and to JUST ONE OTHER GUY! In this video, I break down the incredibly unlikely 2nd place run in Balatro Set Seed Skipless Speedruns and how crazy this was to happen. | I also break down Balatro as a whole for anyone unfamiliar to this game

Wasn't able to reproduce the bug or double-check if it really happened because I forgot to save the seed, but.
Expected behavior: the spectral card Familiar should destroy cards permanently when picked from a pack.
Bug: A king that had been enchanted into a Bonus Card was not destroyed permanently, but I was still rewarded with the face cards.
did you have something better than a full house tied with it
No.
then probably is a bug
It was like 8 full house hands and 3 was the next highest
it was
can you take screenshots of it or are you past it
past.
I know it was a bug though, 100% sure
Is a softlock considered a bug?
yes
Okay, I got softlocked after playing every card in my deck but still having hands to play without the ability to play any hands
This was the seed and deck if that's needed
you can play that card, the psychic stops you the first time but you can click "play hand" again afterward and itll go through
then youll lose once you have no cards left
I don't know if this is a bug or if it's intentional but if you spam click reroll you're able to go down to a negative balance
bug thats known
Found this cool looking bug the other day. Don’t know what caused it to happen
lol
most normal blind
relateable
not the worst thing in the world as i did do it intentionally with a autoclicker, so most likely wont happen unless you make it happen
bro I said the same thing when I reported this bug
autoclickers seem to break balatro alot
if you play a hand that doesnt count on the number still increases on run info
Never done this before... 2x Ride the Bus
white whale strikes again
may I have the seed please?
IC5LNK66
ok thanks
Not as good, but I'm on a roll!
2x Splash in Seed: IM5UEBTN
cannonball
how u getting 2 of the same jokers
ye i thought that he somehow had the joker effect
I managed to softlock the game with this boss blind
you can double tap play hand
and it’ll let you play it the second time
oooh
Found an incredibly weird bug where just the music isn't working, sound effects work fine. No the music volume isn't at 0
me and other ppl had this too. No idea Y
don't happen to have a fix do you? soundtrack is a banger and game is quiet as hell without it
Idk. Only method I found was to reboot the game
rerolling after having all 45 jokers crashes the game too xd
how did you
magic
Reason: Bad word usage
bruh
did you say x ploit
hach
cheat engine
i just wanted to test some hands with all jokers but seems game doesnt like it 🙃
Not a bug but a wording inconsistency. Heirophant says “Enhances 2 selected cards to bonus cards”, not “up to 2 selected cards”.
opening a planet card pack while using a controller to enter the next round allows u to stay in the planet pack menu and continue onto the next blind but the game will crash next time theres a planet card in the shop
I have a couple of issues with the game. I'm using Steam on Windows.
- Full Screen does not show mouse cursor
- When adjusting the Aspect Ratio in Full Screen mode, the changes I apply will not apply, keeping the aspect ratio to the highest value
- Full Screen and Aspect Ratio video settings do not get saved/applied when starting the game, sets the game to Full Screen and highest Aspect Ratio value
If you change your system sound output, the game does not change outputs until you restart the game.
it's a known bug
How does this bug work? Is it just random seeds which have preseted jokers on sone ante?
I'm not too certain on what exactly causes the bug to happen. I will say that if it does happen, it is consistent within that seed
I keep having a problem where I can’t click anywhere on the bottom right of the screen. This only affects buying the right pack of cards but fixes after I reopen the game
tooth can get you in the negatives
intended, as going into debt is a thing (bank card or whatever it’s called iirc allows you to go up to $20 in debt)
yeah but if that card allows you to go $20 in debt that implys you can't go in debt without it
the tooth still takes your money though
credit card lets you spend up into -20, you cant buy stuff when youre negative otherwise
You can buy yourself down to $0 normally, with credit card you can buy down to -$20
Tooth overrides all that, no lower limit
if you owe someone 5 dollars and they only have 3, you will still receive 5 dollars but they will be in -2 debt
^
its a game
same logic applies
a joker card talks to you
in balatro
my bad i didn't think that the game with jokers talking to you could have that happen
speech was not involved in my explanation…
Please keep this on topic for Balatro bug reports, I think the question was answered
alr
@quartz pond Hone affects the output of Aura spectrals (putting here for posterity)
confirmed 👍
Thank you!
no problem!
seeded run win still adds the white sticker to the joker in the collection
I unlocked the dagger in previous run (but died), then won the seed re-run and the joker got the white sticker from the seeded win
does anyone know what happens if you use 2 hanged mans on the psychic (the blind that forces u to play 5 cards), or be put into a situation, by some other means, where you are only able to play 4 cards?
You can still play the cards, but the game just throws them away and doesn't give you any points
as of a recent update, you cannot play a hand unless it is 5 cards
unless there's some setting for it?
You can still play it by clicking the play button again
oh rly?
Yeah
alright, ty was just curious :p
you can play a hand, the first time you try to play an invalid hand it will cancel it, doing it again will play the hand
why isnt this sending?
bruv internet out. Hope this doesnt ping while u sleeping, im leaving my pc on
Hovering over Balatro in the Windows taskbar will display the game engine name and version instead of the name of the game
iirc you need to play the seed the exact same way to get the glitch, so probably not replicable
what ante did it show up for you?
did you use wraith at all
It copies what the other blueprint is copying 
is clearance sale supposed to nerf sell values as well?
Yes, clearance changes the new price of all things, and the sell price is half the buy price, then rounded down
The only exception is astronomer and planets which is always 1
shame that it nerfs high priestess
without clearance sale you can always get the money you spent back, but with the voucher you'll lose $1 guaranteed
Yeah, that is something to consider
8 ball/cartomancer runs sometimes actually get me to skip taking clearance
Since there are enough tarots that i want to sell
never had a chance for those but I guess it's pretty cool that it's the only voucher with a possible downside
hone and telescope can also have a downside if you aren't careful. hone might prevent you from buying a joker you need (the joker that now became foil, holo or poly and is now too expensive), and telescope might not help if your most played hand isn't the hand you are going for, and the celestial pack has less chances to grant the right planet
both are just extrapolating and aren't actually downsides if you know what you are doing/know how to effectively manage econ
"demo survey" link takes you to deck peeking feedback, not demo feedback
probably intended?
yeah, because its a survey of a demo thing for the full game, there is no demo feedback to my knowlodge
there was
at the moment atleast
ah I see
Yes!
rand() is the random function in C++, in lua (what Balatro is made in) it is math.random. It's an homage to my past game dev in C++
Oh, seeing it in menu is a bit weird, dont know if it was there before
I guess I never realised 😸
BUT-- using rand() in C++ is bad?
We have std::default_random_engine and std::uniform_int_distribution now
rand()%(max-min)+min is shown to be not uniform and bad
well, one of those is legible to those outside the coding community
Plus the new random utilities let you make random floats
hehehe
it's the random func in C though
which C++ inherited
so it had its time
just not used by C++ devs now
i see rand(), i know is code for random
i see rand()%(max-min)+min, and my brain just goes
there's ways of unbiasing it
see random_bounded in https://lemire.me/blog/2016/06/30/fast-random-shuffling/
In a random shuffle, you want to take the elements of a list and reorder them randomly. In a “fair” random shuffle, all possible permutations must be equally likely. It is surprisingly hard to come up with a fair algorithm. Thankfully, there is a fast and easy-to-implement algorithm: the Fisher-Yates shuffle. It is a rather … Continue reading Fa...
Imagine we need a integer from 0 to 99999999
sorry, unbias is the wrong word here, it's moreso "there's ways to get from rand() to a uniformly distributed number"
Of course
``rand()` itself (hopefully) returns a uniformly distributed number
For a slightly less portable version though, we have /dev/(u/a)random
When in the shop, opening a celestial pack and pressing the controller button for exiting the shop will cause the pack to remain on-screen, and will result in a crash when another celestial pack is opened.
Temperance is usable on zero, but wheel is not when every joker is editioned
not sure if it's a bug or just inconsistent
temperance gives you the sell value of it's jokers; it doesn't check if you have any jokers (like how hermit doesn't check if you have $0 money)
can't sell jokers during blind select, so cartomancer here couldn't reroll a joker - is this a bug?
In the stats screen it looks like it's continuing my win streak even if I only make it to, but not beat, the final round. Was on an 8 win streak, then lost 2 games in a row on the final round, and it now shows 10 (10) on the win streak screen like it is continuing the win streak instead of breaking it at 8 like it should have.
yeah but wheel isn't buyable when it won't do anything
thing is then you could savescum so if wheel does nothing with a joker you can advance it without buying a joker
i didn't specify wheel as an example but alr
I specifically did and I thought you were replying to me, no?
that's the whole bug, wheel is impossible to use when it does nothing, but temperance is
my logic is that temperance can technically give you 0 money if you have no jokers, as it counts the sell value of your jokers without checking if you have any
oh sure, and wheel can give you nothing when you have all your jokers editioned
it's inconsistent
why should one check while the other doesn't
1 reason is that temperance shows how much money you will make so you are told before hand you get $0
and for WoF the best way to stop you from getting nothing is by making the use button unusable because the left side is already taken
not a strong arguement but it is an arguement that can be made
iirc hermit can double $0 money, as 0 * 2 is 0, which is valid
and as this isn't a bug i'd perfer if this conversation was redirected somewhere else to prevent clutter
New glitch unlocked
It will NEVER happen unless you specifically think to try this for some reason
like me
will notify if something actually game breaking happens with this
but rn harmless
What did you do?
spammed reroll at 0.5x speed and bought a pack
