Usage

Note

This mod uses a client-server architecture, so to play with your friends, you'll need to run your own dedicated server. Get the latest artifact at this repo

1. Download and run the server
2. Port forward the server's port 5304
3. In balatro, both you and your friend(s) should go to your settings and open the Multiplayer tab and put in the IP of the server
4. Assuming the IP is correct, once any of you start a run, it should start a run with the same seed on all other players
