Steam card and badge

[agente_angelo]

I've been playing this wonderful game since the demo, and I don't understand why it still doesn't have the Steam trading cards or the badge for this beautiful game to put on my profile. I came to this game's discussion post to ask that these things be added so I can show my positive taste for this game on Steam. Thank you for the attention of those who read this comment, and I hope they comment a lot.

Things changed a while back where games need a certain popularity before developers can add cards (so, after release). That's at least a change I have noticed in my dev dashboard. Or they are eligible, but the devs chose not to use it (yet?)

Needs a points shop with a special profile collection to buy for sure.

So i don ' t about this, because i never use developer Mode in steam. I though that card and badges didn't have about popularity, i think is a creator of the game choice. I steam has a super super inde game that have card. I don't know you tell me.

Up to a certain date any game could add that stuff, but scammers were releasing shovelware games made in an hour, adding cards to them, giving out free copies of their game, and then making money off selling the cards. Here's a writeup about it from around when the change was made https://www.gamesindustry.biz/steam-cracks-down-on-trading-card-abuse-to-combat-fake-games

Balatro probably has already surpassed the required sales, but the dev still needs to make as many wallpapers as the game will have cards, make badges, make emotes, etc. and that takes time. You have to make at least 20 things or something like that, IIRC, and you want to get it right the first time.

They indeed surpassed the required sales at it doesn't show as limited on the store page.

But yeah, these arts need to be done and many devs are just taking time to make them to make sure they are good looking. And focus on the game itself is surely better for smaller devs at launch.

They have Trading Cards now, actually 15 of them which is an exorbitant amount of cards to buy. Good luck.
