A mod that brings "touch" controls to Balatro on PC/Mac, making it a bit more fun to play on desktop and improving the experience on touch-based PCs like the Steam Deck! The default mouse controls are kept intact.

This mod was made from code belonging to LocalThunk and Playstack Games. All I wish for this mod is for a future patch of Balatro to make it obsolete :)
This mod was written by comparing the iOS and PC codebases, generating a diff and using lovely-differ to write a lovely.toml file. This is convenient given the scope of this mod, but might make contributing a bit tricky.
I obviously cannot re-distribute the PC/iOS source code, but I documented my process on my blog so people can reproduce it.
