SilkSong

An unofficial Silksong-themed reskin for Balatro, featuring playing-card artwork by Hiccup and card-enhancement artwork by Fenyl.

Features

• A selectable SilkSong playing-card skin for all four suits and all ranks.
• Standard and high-contrast deck palettes.
• Replacement artwork for the base card and Bonus, Mult, and Wild enhancements.
• An in-game Credits tab with the artists' contributions.

This is a visual reskin. It does not change scoring or gameplay rules.

Requirements

• A copy of Balatro.
• Steamodded and Lovely; the Thunderstore package declares both as dependencies.

Balatro itself is not included.

Installation

Using a mod manager

Install SilkSong using a Thunderstore-compatible mod manager with Balatro support, along with its required dependencies, then launch the modded game.

Remove any older manual installation of this mod first to avoid duplicate copies.

Manual installation

1. Install Lovely and Steamodded using their official installation instructions.
2. Create a SilkSong folder inside your Balatro Mods directory.
3. Extract this package into that folder. CustomReskin.json, core.lua, assets/, and data/ should be directly inside Mods/SilkSong/.
4. Restart Balatro and check that SilkSong appears in Steamodded's Mods menu.

Selecting the artwork

Open Balatro's Customize Deck menu and select SilkSong for each suit you want to reskin. The mod provides both standard and high-contrast palettes for use with the game's contrast settings.

The base-card and enhancement replacements apply automatically while the mod is enabled. To view attribution in game, open Mods → SilkSong → Credits.
