I see a lot of potential, but the late game is... kinda boring. The issue for me is that it's very easy to get a batter over 100% accuracy and to give them enough strength that every one of their hits is a homerun. For example, you could get the Dream, give them a lead weight and/or an ogre bat, and now you win every game forever, with just one batter.
gave a shy guy ball and chain at the start into an ultimate bat and it is effectively >100% accuracy and has enough minimum strength to go full circle every time, making it a deterministically free wi
Once you have Starman and Robot at strength 8 with Baseball Diamonds, the game becomes repetitive and allows you you spam those two for 8 rounds to guarantee a win. I assume Basebaal is the final boss and development didn't go further but I loved it! Couldn't stop min-maxing. Mad props!
Giving a couple characters the Stat Tracker and then using Picket Bat with Mr. Baseball Junior to strike out 8 times in a row for an immediate +8% on the other characters is awesome, also really hilarious how many times I was mad at him for actually hitting the ball despite having a 1-7% chance... I think he's a liar lmao
really fun game but the end game is a bit boring, I had a character that couldn't miss so I basically couldn't lose but the requirement was 25 points so it was just a boring level to play.
excellent game. Make it faster pls. It would be nice to have a screen of victory at the end. The characters are really cool, they might need some balancing. Maybe you could add a fatigue/stamina stat to the players to avoid spamming the same characters all over again.
I was able to win against Basebaal in 8 turns with that team. Playing only the Trioberserker, Mr. Little baseball, Starman, and the robot in that order.
I found a glitch where if you have a character with 100% or more accuracy against the eyes character it doesn't shows the first swing as a full red circle.
This was a really fun game. I loved discovering the hidden characters and maximizing synergy. The character design and flavor text goes a really long way. Discovering the Dream was awesome, he and Starman made it practically impossible to lose. There was sort of no strategy once I had those two and Necromancer, and I honestly could have phased him out if I just got them enough strength. I was disappointed by the ending, I really didn't like the lack of a conclusion. I wish there was a catalogue that showed where and when characters and items showed up, that could also provide hints on secret characters. I don't know how I feel about the item pool limitations, I understanding unlocking more as time goes on but certain items (like the ball and chain) are never outclassed by later items but are still removed. All in all, an incredible game jam entry, looking forward to more work in the future.
I misread the title of the game and thought it was a game where you pinch the German Dictator during World War II. But at least it's just a little video game about baseball instead so that is good!

Incredible little game! If I needed to hire a character designer, I'd hire you on the spot!
heres the team I finished the game with! :] probably not the best but i got attached to the little guys :')
Oh my God BaseBaal is such a great pun 😂
Love this game Charles and Dreamer make such an amazing duo and I couldn't get rid of those two even when I knew I should lol
I love turn-based sports games, so I really appreciate this, even though it doesn't last very long.
I'm guessing maybe there will be more but im not sure about it actually happening.

Randomly clicked and surprisingly fun and cute lol
I managed to beat the game without buying any characters. Love it.
A fun little game!! it could use some music theme, but overall very cute (love the visuals and the tiny piece of story here and there!)
Really cool gameplay and beautiful artwork! Nice job!
Can you set the target platform for the download? Can't download on itch.io desktop without one.
Love the game! had a glitch where shy guy's outs didn't count for some reason? Was using the web version.
Someone can show all the évolution ? Only fine 2
excellent game. Make it faster pls.
It would be nice to have a screen of victory at the end.

I really had a lot of fun. Thanks.

Because he apply a -99% accuracy malus. So if you have more you have a chance to hit the ball
Cute artwork, fun game.
Fun game. Lost 3 times in a row. Never get anything good in the shop. Won't play again, but thanks.
I made a game similar to this, but this is 100x better, love it!!
Really cool idea! Needs more characters, levels etc, but the idea is def there! Really cool
This is so good! Beat it twice with different rosters! the characters feel so unique and fun! love baseball I'll be returning to this one a lot
This team is a powerhouse. Basebaal stood no chance haha
lol same, I love this game. I REALLY hope it keeps getting expanded

What an excellent little surprise! Good work!
Necromancer carried in the later levels :) Had more skeletons crossing home plate than flesh.
Super cool
It's a great game
I won against basebaal thanks to the
(and The Dream)
but it just put me back to the shop still showing Basebaal as the next enemy?
I made an account js to comment on this game.
I wanted to say that Dreamer is highkey THE play!
(cough, cough, tho I still cant beat Basebaal..)
gosh why does this look like a bot comment :sob:
had a lot of fun (some combos are very very overpowered) but still !
insanely cool !
thats fun

Same hahaha great game though
At least Captain America had better ideas than simply pinching him. Like him hitting Hitler with a fist to the face.
This is really good, thank you!
Fun little game! Starman and Yeti OP (kept original Dave the whole way through)
Game froze VS Baphomet looking guy. Had the Dream and star guy on a plate, then sleepy guy with 108% accuracy just got a hit.
