A port of fire game Balatro to the nintendo DS made using MicroLUA.

Limitations:

  • The game lacks music, different decks, and only has 12 Boss Blinds and 15 Jokers.
  • As well as the system for finding what the current hand played is can't take hands that aren't the amount of cards that the hand should be, so say in Balatro you have a pair and 3 other random cards, in the port the game wouldn't recognize that as a pair.

Installation

Download and install MicroLUA.

Put the source code folder into lua/scripts/.

To play in DeSmuME:

  • Navigate to Config > Slot 2 (GBA Slot).
  • From there change the drop down to Flash Card Device and the folder to the folder with MicroLua 4.7.2.nds.
