From 5dbc50d755124c115f2851542edb5017d0c3b807 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wheeler <118409873+GreenNinja2525@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2025 07:55:59 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Scale Gif and Add Balatro Wiki Badge Makes it easier to find the Wiki (the one I use) and the gif is now properly appearing and scaling. The Gif is a little blurry, but I don't know how to fix that and if it bothers too many people I'll just revert it. --- README.md | 34 +++++++++++++++++++--------------- 1 file changed, 19 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index a758f4b..cef559d 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -4,11 +4,15 @@ [![Open Issues](https://custom-icon-badges.demolab.com/github/issues/cellos51/balatro-gba?logo=bug&style=flat&label=Issues&labelColor=gray&color=red)](https://github.com/cellos51/balatro-gba/issues) [![Pull Requests](https://custom-icon-badges.demolab.com/github/issues-pr/cellos51/balatro-gba?logo=git-pull-request&style=flat&label=Pull%20Requests&labelColor=gray&color=indigo&v=1)](https://github.com/cellos51/balatro-gba/pulls) [![Forks](https://custom-icon-badges.demolab.com/github/forks/cellos51/balatro-gba?logo=repo-forked&style=flat&label=Forks&labelColor=gray&color=blue)](https://github.com/cellos51/balatro-gba/network/members) -[![Stars](https://custom-icon-badges.demolab.com/github/stars/cellos51/balatro-gba?logo=star&style=flat&labelColor=gray&color=yellow&label=Stars&v=1)](https://github.com/cellos51/balatro-gba) +[![Stars](https://custom-icon-badges.demolab.com/github/stars/cellos51/balatro-gba?logo=star&style=flat&labelColor=gray&color=yellow&label=Stars&v=2)](https://github.com/cellos51/balatro-gba) This is an attempt to recreate the game **'Balatro'** as accurately as possible, including all of the visual effects that make Balatro feel satisfying to play. -This **tech-demo/proof of concept** is strictly limited in content to a minimal version of Balatro and will **NOT** recreate the full game. **This version is intended for people who already own and know how the official full game works.** Please refer to the Balatro Wiki for any information regarding Joker effects and such. +This **tech-demo/proof of concept** is strictly limited in content to a minimal version of Balatro and will **NOT** recreate the full game. **This version is intended for people who already own and know how the official full game works.** Please refer to the Balatro Wiki for any information regarding Joker effects and such. + + + Balatro Wiki + ## Disclaimer: This project is NOT endorsed by or affiliated with Playstack or LocalThunk ### This is a non-profit community fan project solely aimed to recreate a minimal version of Balatro on the Game Boy Advance as a tribute to the full Balatro and is not intended to infringe or draw sales away from the full game's release or any of the established works by Playstack and LocalThunk. @@ -16,8 +20,6 @@ This **tech-demo/proof of concept** is strictly limited in content to a minimal ## Buy the official full version from these sources below: - - [![Balatro on Steam](https://custom-icon-badges.demolab.com/badge/Balatro%20on%20Steam-194c84?logo=steam&logoColor=fff)](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2379780/Balatro/) [![Balatro on Google Play](https://custom-icon-badges.demolab.com/badge/Balatro%20on%20Google%20Play-414141?logo=Google-play&logoColor=fff)](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.playstack.balatro.android) [![Balatro on Apple App Store](https://custom-icon-badges.demolab.com/badge/Balatro%20on%20Apple%20App%20Store-0D96F6?logo=app-store&logoColor=fff)](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/balatro/id6502453075) @@ -26,9 +28,10 @@ This **tech-demo/proof of concept** is strictly limited in content to a minimal [![Balatro on Xbox](https://custom-icon-badges.demolab.com/badge/Balatro%20on%20Xbox-107C10.svg?logo=xbox&logoColor=white)](https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/balatro/9PK087LNGJC5) [![Balatro on Humble Bundle](https://img.shields.io/badge/Balatro%20on%20Humble%20Bundle-%23494F5C.svg?logo=HumbleBundle&logoColor=white)](https://www.humblebundle.com/store/balatro?srsltid=AfmBOoqS2De8T4kizzWxJS1pbvQosJ_bYCl4qvC6LA1YLPAh4sZ8vJqO) -![Example](https://github.com/cellos51/balatro-gba/blob/main/example.gif) + +Example GIF + - ### Controls: (A: Pick Card/Make Selections) @@ -45,7 +48,7 @@ This **tech-demo/proof of concept** is strictly limited in content to a minimal ## **-Windows-** 1.
