Ah, baseball. The fierce swing of the bat, the resounding crack of wood against leather, and the scent of those questionably edible hotdogs. Is there anything more quintessentially American than a baseball diamond? As a Brit, I wouldn't know, but I'm aware that many of us wouldn't mind taking the helm of our own team in the major leagues. Enter Bitball Baseball, the upcoming super low-res baseball simulator that lets you do just that.
Don't expect high-resolution textures with Bitball Baseball; it's all about the charm of a low-res aesthetic. You'll oversee the entire field, watching your pixellated players battle it out with rival teams, sprinting for bases after each swing.
When it comes to features, Bitball Baseball offers everything you could want from a fantasy sports simulator. Manage your team, trade players, customize your lineup, and build a world-class stadium that attracts hordes of dedicated fans (or exploit them with hefty ticket prices). If you opt for the premium version, you can further personalize your experience by customizing your players' names and appearances, as well as editing your team's overall look.
Take me out to the ballgameWhile baseball simulators may not be as mainstream as their football and American football counterparts, there's no denying the sport's universal appeal. Kudos to developers Duckfoot Games for their transparency about what's included in the free and premium versions of the game, clearly listed on the storefront!
Mark your calendars for the expected release of Bitball Baseball on March 12th, just a few weeks away! Be sure to pre-register on Android or iOS to get in your hits.
