## Overview

Balatro Easy Mode is a Balatro gameplay mod focused on changing Joker availability: it equalizes spawn chances, removes tier weighting, and keeps rarity labels for visual reference. Steamodded is a stated installation prerequisite. The tree identifies a main entry file and Joker/card modules, but no source excerpts were provided, so their exact hook and call relationships cannot be verified; the graph shows documented integration and behavior without assuming internal wiring.

Main entry points: [`card/joker_pool.lua`](https://github.com/thewybrake09/balatro-easy-mode-/blob/main/card/joker_pool.lua) (Joker pool), [`main.lua`](https://github.com/thewybrake09/balatro-easy-mode-/blob/main/main.lua) (Mod entry), [`card/card_effect.lua`](https://github.com/thewybrake09/balatro-easy-mode-/blob/main/card/card_effect.lua) (Rarity visuals)
