About the Game

It's the worst day of Michael Softwindow's life.
He has to touch grass.

After costing his team last year's championship, Michael Softwindows would rather stay in bed forever.

Unfortunately, his baseball gear has mysteriously vanished, and finding it means venturing into the strange worlds hidden throughout his room. He gathers his trusty talking baseball bat and goes on a quest to retrieve his friends... If they can even call him a friend.

Explore underground civilizations, the world of forgotten drawings, way too big closets, and his bad rpg games he made as a kid...? All in the entirety of his bedroom?! Uncover the history of Michael's past and the tragic events that unfolded that turned him into a rude, cold, irony-poisoned jerk... and if it's too late for redemption.

He would really rather go back to sleep, but he must confront the dastardly DARK TROPHIOUS and the mysterious Coach to rescue his stolen gear and face the consequences of everything he's spent years trying to laugh off.

In Michael's eyes, everything is a joke. Unfortunately, some problems won't laugh with him.

Featuring...

  • Turn-based battles with a twist! Defend against bullet-hell lite enemy attacks inspired by the UNDERTALE series, and dish out your own baseball themed spells and tactics similar to the Mario & Luigi and Paper Mario series to get the upper hand!

  • Gain extra turns by exploiting enemy weaknesses and strike them out of existence! Three strikes, and they're OUT, taking additional damage.

  • Customize skills by equipping different pins, allowing you to have a unique set of skills perfect for whatever combat scenario you're in!

  • Character driven story about an emotionally stunted teenage boy learning to let people in.

  • One entire boy's room to explore!

  • Inspiration from Earthbound with themes of SOMETHING or ANOTHER...!
