Balatro Mobile Maker

The goal of this project is to allow Balatro fans to play Balatro on their mobile devices. This project provides a NON-PIRACY avenue for players to do so, by converting their Steam copy of Balatro to a mobile app. Balatro Mobile Maker also supports automatically transferring your saves back and forth between your Steam copy of the game and your mobile device (save transfer features only officially available on Windows and Android, for now).

Mods are not officially supported, but they will probably work if you transfer your saves from a modded system.

Keep in mind that Balatro Mobile Maker is still in beta! Please report any bugs you encouter in the issues section. If you encounter bugs with the latest release, try the previous release.
