The scripting portion is written in Lua? I remember when all the “noobs” would write really shit PSP apps on it and C devs would shit all over them. I’m happy to hear it’s getting some work done (based on what I heard about the game being decent). It’s not the tool but the end product produced that dictates whether something is fun or not.

Edit: there were some decent apps written for it as well, but it did attract a lot of new programmers. Gotta start somewhere thought :)

If you own balatro you can open the exe file with an archive manager and see its a bunch of lua files in a trenchcoat the source is completely open and readable
