BalatroMods

Some small Balatro QoL mods I wrote. Tested on Balatro 1.0.1o and Steamodded 1.0.0 beta (0323b)

Restart Run Button

Adds a button to restart the current run to the escape menu and game over screen.

I was annoyed that the R key for restarting the current run doesn't work on the game over screen, requiring you to go back to the deck selection screen to start a new run.

This mod does exactly the same thing as holding R normally would.

Brainstorm Reroll Button

If you use Brainstorm's auto reroll and you want an easier way to trigger it after losing a run, this mod is for you.

This is also useful on the (unofficial) mobile version, where obviously you normally don't have a keyboard to activate the key combinations, so this is the only way to use Brainstorm on mobile.

Similar to Restart Run Button, a button is added to both the escape menu and game over screen, which triggers the same function as the Ctrl+A key combination.

Important: Use the Mac version of Brainstorm. It works on Windows and Linux too, don't worry.

Brainstorm 2.0.0 (Windows only) and the Mac version (which is in the master repo) have completely different code (and even different functionality) and the mod is only made to work with the Mac version.

Simply download the Brainstorm repo using Code->Download ZIP instead of using the files from releases.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide. These mods need a community loader first — the bundled readme usually points to its download.
