8-bit Balatro Preview for Commodore machines like the C64, C Plus/4, and CBM PET.

This is the work-in-progress Commodore 64 version of the popular indie game, Balatro. While it’s not a full port, the core gameplay and mechanics remain the same. 

The music is currently being crafted for the Commodore 64 (thanks to Jammer) and the Commodore Plus/4 (courtesy of Csabo). I’m also planning a release for the Commodore PET.

Balatro for the C64 is planned to be an official release, including a physical version by PleasureBytes Games. I have already contacted the original developer (Localthunk) and publisher (Playstack).

Hey this is really cool.  I'm a fan of Balatro and a fan of retro games - nicely done! 

Thanks!

Absolutely needs to have discards when you start, cause the only good deck rn is Yellow Deck given it's extra money.

Yes, Yellow deck is my absolutely favourite, too, 

It's good that the C64 will have its own Balatro, a fun game. I also added it to my new "Gameplay of New C64 Games from October 2024" video, along with other C64 games released in October.

Many thanks!!!
