"I'm very smart, at math, uh, in, I'm... a very intelligent person." - Tyler I wish you pulling out a calculator to play a calculator game wasn't the most relatable thing you've ever done, but here I am, nodding sagely because I too needed a calculator for 94 - x = 15.
@@Omlet221 It actually translates quite well since it forces the person to use multiple means to arrive at an answer. Obviously it's basically arithmetic, but it also teaches problem solving skills that aren't taught very well in schools.
This game would be awesome in the educational system. Its like youre taking a math test the whole video. Not a hard one but very nice gameification of math
It's easier for some people to learn if it's a game so I do see your thinking, yeah. Honestly, I thought the same thing but since you already commented this, prefer to add a like rather than anything else.

25:24. Call me crazy, but I wholeheartedly think the correct answer was convert the 1 to a 5 and then add your money (18) to your 55 to get 73, less buttons pressed and a chance at using cut for something more valuable.
There's definitely room for improvement aside from the typos I've seen. I like the variety of calculators and buttons, but there's currently no real incentive structure in place for replayability. An easy fix would be "unlocking" the more difficult calculators and legendary buttons in like a campaign style
the +~10 would have gave you the 1 in the first boss battle. If it reads correctly it adds the remaining if you need less than 10 to the target number.
This should definitely be one of the “classroom approved games” that kids can play on computers in study hall or something or as a reward for doing an assignment quickly and there’s still some time left in the class, and the teacher can project it onto the board and have the class vote on what to do, which teaches cohesion and team building while solving puzzles as fast as possible
That one twitter user that said “Balatro fans be like ‘YOOOO this gameplay fire’” and it’s just a screenshot of the calculator app is losing their fuckin mind rn
"I think 0 is more expensive than it needs to be". 0 is effectively a reset button. Just going ×0 will always give you a blank slate, so it is, in fact, very valuable 😅
Me an engineer: ah I can do that in my head it's easy. Also me: enters it into calculator to see if I was wrong, and then do it again because I could have entered it into the calculator wrong
What a wonderful concept that forces you to use your brain. Regardless even if it doesn't feel like you're learning something you're re-enforcing pathways/synpases in your brain to strengthen your math skills.
At this point I'm not even surprised that someone made a Roguelike calculator game, the literal hundreds of roguelikes, it was bound to happen eventually. I also think it's a sign that the roguelike/roguelite community are straight up running out of ideas.

I wish you pulling out a calculator to play a calculator game wasn't the most relatable thing you've ever done, but here I am, nodding sagely because I too needed a calculator for 94 - x = 15.
Little tip: try looking for an easier equation close to that. 95-80=15 is easier, you have one less so 79. Maybe it helps someone.
@@Elechte this is the fundamental core to mental math. And thus it is still difficult for people to wrap their brains around numbers like this
22:31 97-95:
😎
@Elechte Doing percentages backwards blew people's mind in school. Like why do 2% of 50 when you can do 50% of 2?
Imo this is a bad example. 2% of 50 can also easily be seen as 1% of 100 which is a lot more straight forward. @@jaredcollins2049
This should legitimately be in schools. Like not even a joke, games like this help students learn math so much better.
Being good at arithmetic I think is pretty irrelevant to being good at math
@@Omlet221 It actually translates quite well since it forces the person to use multiple means to arrive at an answer. Obviously it's basically arithmetic, but it also teaches problem solving skills that aren't taught very well in schools.

@@11clocky An The Amazing World of Gumball reference
@@Yumetsu_ch That explains it. I know absolutely nothing about that show.

I was waiting so long for him to see it when he almost instantly saw the play.
My brain went to (add money = 69) then (+ 4)
Damn, Richard really predicted that game Cal-cu-lator.
They have made roguelikes from:
- Blackjack
- Poker
- Mahjong/Shanghai
- Solitair
Wonder when someone is gonna do a Sudoku roguelike :P
Man to be honest, i would like a lot a sudoku roguelite! Could be very interesting!
Acutally I'd love to play a sudoku roguelike xD
I dont know how that would look like, but id be into it!
Or maybe even a picross rogue like
What about nonogramm/picross rogualike in addition?
I actually play sudoku and now i need this
solitaire*
My only complaint is that there's no female characters but there's no male characters either so I guess it's fine.

@@kiyu3229 Yes
Richard ahh gameplay
Glad Richard Waterson made a tutorial about this, this was bloody hard
First balatro being poker rogue like already unique enough, now we have a goddamn calculator
I love how a lot of people are talking about Richard Waterson, it warms my heart
Pulling out a calculator to solve a calculator is hilarious 😂.
“so yeah, pretty good game, 8/10, would play again”
I was just about to type "Richard Watterson". But so many people already did, not suprised.
same
We live in a society
Richard Waterson be cooking in this
There's definitely room for improvement aside from the typos I've seen.
I like the variety of calculators and buttons, but there's currently no real incentive structure in place for replayability. An easy fix would be "unlocking" the more difficult calculators and legendary buttons in like a campaign style
89 is one of those prime numbers that REALLY feels like it shouldn't be prime
the +~10 would have gave you the 1 in the first boss battle. If it reads correctly it adds the remaining if you need less than 10 to the target number.
This should definitely be one of the “classroom approved games” that kids can play on computers in study hall or something or as a reward for doing an assignment quickly and there’s still some time left in the class, and the teacher can project it onto the board and have the class vote on what to do, which teaches cohesion and team building while solving puzzles as fast as possible
This immediately made me think of the amazing world of gumball and I'm glad I wasn't the only one
Ain't no way a joke from Amazing World of Gumball is now real
Maybe Richard Waterson was onto something afterall
Richard better review this new Calcula-thor DLC
That one twitter user that said “Balatro fans be like ‘YOOOO this gameplay fire’” and it’s just a screenshot of the calculator app is losing their fuckin mind rn
I love this calc roguelike! (btw chat, If anyone is new to the stream, calc is short for calculator, i'm just using slang)
Ummm, acshuawy, Calc is witerawy short for calculation. Witerawy.
what is this a reference to?
@@iconica9516 a great thing

I bet you couldn't do 5 times a thousand
"I think 0 is more expensive than it needs to be". 0 is effectively a reset button. Just going ×0 will always give you a blank slate, so it is, in fact, very valuable 😅
Eh depends
Raising current value to 0 making 1 also sounds valuable. Then you're often just an append away.
Also it can be used to multiply and add with 11-19 which could also be huge.
The nostalgia, I still remember when Richard Watterson played the game.
26:25 Glad to see the devs added mod support to the game
Bro 💀💀
Good one
Richard had a vision. Literally
Damn near every comment is a TAWOG reference. The fact that a 30 second bit from a single episode of a show is this influential is wild
When Balatro is not enough math roguelike
Me an engineer: ah I can do that in my head it's easy. Also me: enters it into calculator to see if I was wrong, and then do it again because I could have entered it into the calculator wrong
you can abuse the decimal numbers being rounded down, for example in round 7 (14:26) you could've added a 2 then divide by 2
Cal-Cu-la-tor II finally dropped let's gooppp
If this was a phone game I would never leave the toilet while I’m at work
WE GOT A RICHARD GAMING CLASSIC BEFORE GTA 6
Without even starting the video, i can tell that the amazing world of gumball made this happen
I remember watching Richard Watersons walkthrough of this on elmore+
“There are some glitches like if you try to use the arrow on the balloon” *explodes*
24:05 You can add 22 ... Use the "1->5" to add 4 and use the "add money" to add the remaining 18 ;)
3:57 CHEATER❗️❗️😡😡🤬🤬🤬
22:02 I love how instead of doing 97 - 95 = 2 he went out of his way to generate a 4 and then subtract 2
Damn, you guys beat me to it with the richard watterson's Calc-U-Lator
What a wonderful concept that forces you to use your brain. Regardless even if it doesn't feel like you're learning something you're re-enforcing pathways/synpases in your brain to strengthen your math skills.
11:45 if I'm not mistaken, the most optimal way would be to divide by 9 (=4), then use the button to go to the next prime (4→5).
Can't believe this is what gumball predicted
Someone's definitely gonna put an image of richard waterson webcam and play through this game
It is cool to see how many ways you can play this.
My idea for round 14 was convert the 1 to a 5 and add your current money.
Calcúlator is game of the year material, thanks richard
this unironically can be a very good took to make learning math fun
20:20 I was thinking Convert to Last Number (59) > Append 4 (594) > Add 103 (697)
The best answer is totally just to add 604
RICHARD WATERSON LOVE THIS GAME
I love how we all remember the one gumball episode
Richard Waterson been playing this since alpha
20:30 "I think that went fine." The optimal solution was just +604. Would have saved 2 presses. Just add, man.
The optimal solution is boring, live a little
@@OlexaYT It also makes you feel stupid for going the most obvious path. gotta flex your brain a bit
@@Apple_Apporuthere’s no brain flexing involved when the author literally pulled out a calculator to play this
It’s a calculator game, of course I’m using a calculator
Wait.
Wasnt there an entire ass gumball episode about this- _oh mevermind guess the entire comment section is sharing the braincell this time i see_
this is the game Richard was playing in that one amazing world of gumball episode

That weird pink guy from gumball would love this
Cal-cu-lator is real
The prophecy was true... Richard Waterson was a prophet all this time
18:31 You can just add 604 here… 💀
That’s insane you managed to prime factor 697 though lol
gumball joked about that, they really did it... damn what a world
Computer blew up 8/10 would play again
I'm so happy to see everyone immediately remembers Richard Watterson!
