Welcome to Eggplant: The Secret Lives of Games! Candid conversations with game creators that dive deep into the art, craft, and process of making games. Follow us on social media, join our lovely and active Discord, support us on Patreon or leave us a voicemail — check out our Linktree for details!
We're joined by LocalThunk, solo creator of the hypnotic
deckbuilder Balatro. We discuss flauting the fashion of a genre and
going into development blind, the benefits of balacing by feel,
and why Balatro shouldn't exist.
