Victoria developed a deep love for video games watching her brothers barrel their way through Goldeneye 007. She will unashamedly spout forth all sorts of niche Zelda lore to anyone who will listen (and even at times to those who won't), and makes the best pancakes you have ever seen.
Publisher Playstack announced this milestone earlier today, with CEO Harvey Elliott stating the team is"incredibly grateful for the support and enthusiasm from players worldwide".
"The game's success is a testament to the quality and creativity that the indie sector can deliver, proving that even in uncertain times, innovative games can thrive," Elliott said."We extend our deepest thanks to every player who has joined us on this adventure." Meanwhile, developer LocalThunk said they"still can't grasp the response" to Balatro."I am overjoyed that so many people have been able to have fun with my silly creation. I'm so fortunate that I can continue working on my passion as a career. Thank you!" I imagine they must be feeling quite flush-ed.
"A poker roguelike is such a brilliant idea you almost don't need to make it to see how clever it is. There are a few of these, and Balatro is comfortably the best I've played. It really is ingenious - and it's also ingeniously simple."
