I've been absolutely glued to this demo since trying it out after watching your last video. The multipler can reach insane numbers when exploiting the jokers.
Hey Tom, since yo mentioned in the vid you didn't know what it was, "Tags" are the bonuses you get for skipping a round, so anything that gives you double tag means the next time you skip a round, you get double the benefit.
Been playing the demo alot & some of the moves with the tarot cards were hair pulling. Also, that joker that gives tarot cards is one of the strongest in the demo & gives you so much value. To pulls from it already pays for itself.
With the Joker that reduced the length of straights and flushes, and having so many wild cards, Tom definitely could have tried for the straight flush build the planets so desperately wanted him to play
You have to remember that he's been buffing normal flushes, i don't know the relative scores, but i expect in every case the normal buffed flush would out-score straight flush
@@Dr.Death8520 I mean, the fact he kept inexplicably buffing everything BUT straight flush, going to full houses, pairs, HIGH CARD even, each time it was ever offered, is very much on Tom also
Flush runs definitely feel super powerful, I had an easy demo with with lv7 flushes and a deck with like 29/50 cards diamonds and the +4 mult per diamond joker
Game is fun but sometimes the final boss has a debuff that makes it impossible to win. I like challenge but I don't like being forced to lose with no way to get around it.
Having played the previous demo, it was exactly the same. I think this is just the state of the demo, and with the limited joker array available. It’s currently really hard to do a 5 card hand build, but I feel in the release we’ll both have more options and be more unpredictable
Tom had a card that reduced the length required of Straights and Flushes. Theoretically you could have a hand that is a straight and a flush, would it score as a straight flush?
Daily reminder that Tom is an amazing person and to thank him for all he has done/will do - Day 1527 Heck ye, happy to see more of this game as it is indeed alot of fun, a bit hard to follow myself for some reason, but still very fun and enjoyable XD OOO, now I do enjoy these types of games where you have to reach an ever greater amount of points, but adding that Negative mechanic, where you can lose points you already have, really spices things up Always the way, whether to keep the card you like, or get a winning build XD
Next Jingle Jam when Tom tells Pyrion he's actually been playing and learning Poker
Glad ta see you playing some more of the 9♦ simulator, as I think Tom & Poker-based shenanigans are an excellent combination no matter the form.

Ever since your last video, I've played 10 hours of THE DEMO for this. I can't wait til it comes out.

Yessssss! More Tom Balatro!! Have some 20 hours in the demo already! Really glad to see Tom having fun with it as well!!!
The demo is absolutely amazing! So much replayability for a demo
I've been eating this game up since the last video. Can't wait for the full release
i have no idea what went on in this, but i'm here for it
this is such a neat concept for a game, glad that theres a couple of these popping up nowadays it seems

My head tom, my head...

Cool game, looks like a lot of build potential
you can get some real run away builds in this game. can't wait to see some more runs
managed to beat this game first try using flush+diamonds multipliers, highest point/round was about 30k, but having steel cards are almost a must have
9:00 Converting cards to spades... Has 2 heart mult cards in hand.... doesn't convert them to spades...
What a fever dream of a poker session this is...
This game is awesome, I've been playing it since Tom's last video
I have absolutely no clue what is going on, but it's Tom so yeah

Honestly, the worse boss debuff has got to be "you can only play one kind of hand for the whole round"
@@xselinisx There was one in the previous demo which is brutal, where you just started with 0 discards for that boss. Hellish
Poggies more Balatro!
Have we told pyrion about this game yet? Could be great for some jokes on his stream.
love it! please play more at least when it full releases
I'm gonna say it... I miss the misplay farts.
Damnation! Yet another game Tom forced me at gunpoint to play!
Game of the Year 2024 no contest
Kinda sad you didnt choose the royal flush as your final hand
Honestly pretty well played. Is Tom actually coming good?
Tom had a card that reduced the length required of Straights and Flushes. Theoretically you could have a hand that is a straight and a flush, would it score as a straight flush?
NINE OF DIAMONDS
There is a 3.5% chance to play the wheel of fortune card 3 times and get nothing from it.
Truly incredible luck.
if you switch how the hand is sorted you can use that to figure out what face down cards are
or you could have just converted all the face cards to one colour while focusing flushes lmao
any games from steamfest in the future???
Mandatory Algorithmic Comment Because We Love Tom xx
Am I going mad, or does Tom keep mixing up clubs and spades?
