Hello everyone hows it going? Today I wanna talk to you about an indy I’ve been playing called Super mega baseball extra innings. Released on August 21, 2015, by publisher and developer Metalhead Software Inc. this game is what I call the perfect time killer to play with friends and yes I did say, friends, as the game offers a variety of co-op modes which considering it’s a pc game caught me completely off guard.
I’ve been playing this game the last few nights to get away from my grind sessions in destiny and i gotta say the game is extremely fun to play even against the computer it offers both exhibition games which are short 5 innings games as well as a season mode which can be set to as many games as you want, the only issue I came across with season mode so far is you can’t seem to save so that you can continue later on unless maybe its user error which might be highly likely.
what makes super mega different from other baseball games is the more cartoony feel all the characters come standard with big heads and small bodies very close to the good old goldeneye days on N64 and i for one love the big heads they add humor to a game and along with the funny team names derived from everything and anything you can tell the devs wanted this to be strictly fun and not extremely serious like actual baseball games and I for one feel they executed it perfectly.
the game also offers an ego meter to every character which is affected by every action so if your a pitcher and give away 12 hits in a row you start doing worse or vice versa if you send the next 3 batters back with straight strikeouts you do better and the batters do get nervous everytime they come up to bat and you can tell cause they start sweating bricks no not literal bricks but you see the sweat falling off them as they’re cracking under the pressure.
the batting I say will be a tiny bit more difficult depending on the settings of the game for the fact that the computer is always spot on when going for the ball and I admit they always seem faster then you but then again I feel that may be normal. but being at bat if fun especially when you get those awesome home runs and give a huge ego blow to the pitcher.
if you love indy games and are a fan of sports games check out super mega baseball its a cheap game on steam and is fun to play its not hugely over the top but its a game done just right and I gotta say the time I’ve spent playing it has been a blast and being able to have fun while I’m winding down from the grind of other games is worth it thank you all and have a great day.
