Vortex - A simple mod for Non-Pixelated Backgrounds!

I've seen people post videos of the Balatro background without the pixelation effect, since a lot of people really like the look of it and wanted to use it as a desktop background, but for some reason no one had made an accessible mod for it. So here's this! There's almost nothing to it, this mod simply replaces the background shaders with an edited version that removes the pixelation effect.

This mod is compatible with any other mods that change the background colors, like Cryptid or Cardsauce.
If you wanna go crazy with making your own custom swirling Balatro vortex desktop background, I recommend getting DebugPlus and Cardsauce and setting the background colors to your liking, then hide the UI with H!

Love this, feels much cleaner and makes the background less distracting too

Just a heads-up, it's marked as requiring Steamodded 0419a, but works just fine on Steamodded 0323b also - you could probably reduce or even remove the dependency version requirement without a problem

suppose so

Howd you remove the UI?
