Koshien Baseball

# Game Outline

As a lifelong fan of baseball games, I've crafted a high school baseball simulation that encapsulates the excitement and drama of the sport, inspired by the unique protagonists found in baseball comics. Our goal is to develop players with distinct personalities, ensuring a balanced gameplay experience across hitting, defense, and power.

Imagine the thrill of hitting a game-winning home run, accompanied by dramatic background music and iconic lines that elevate the moment. This game brings that vision to life.

Step into the shoes of a high school baseball team manager and cultivate a roster of players with unique traits, such as "pitchers who can't control or change their pitches but throw incredible fastballs." Lead your team to victory in the prefectural tournament and the prestigious Koshien tournament, with the ultimate aim of clinching the national championship.

This "dramatic high school baseball simulation" is designed for those who relish strategic gameplay and player development, free from any gacha elements.

# How to Play

Guide your players' growth by overseeing their training regimens. Fielders can focus on improving their meat hitting, power, running ability, defensive skills, and intelligence, while pitchers can work on their fastballs, changeable balls, control, and stamina.

Craft a development plan that aligns with each player's unique personality. Throughout their journey, your players will experience intense episodes, such as:

• A genius pitcher overcoming the yips to finally check first base successfully.
• A novice player (with all G-rated abilities) dedicating themselves to hitting practice and earning a spot as a regular by their junior year's summer.

The game's balance has been fine-tuned based on user feedback during development, ensuring there's no guaranteed winning strategy. Thanks to extensive input from dedicated players, the game has been adjusted to prevent any single method from dominating.

Forge your own path in player development and team building, embracing the individuality of your roster.

Training progresses monthly, with Koshien qualifiers held in July and September. Triumph in these qualifiers to advance to Koshien.

Before each match, set your starting lineup and batting order. During the game, take on the role of coach and direct tactics such as bunting, stealing bases, squeeze plays, end runs, and gamble starts.

Tactical decisions can be influenced by the presence of runners on first or second base, potentially making it easier to hit grounders between these bases. The game features animations for batted ball handling and defensive plays, enhancing the realism.

In critical moments, your teammates' fervent cheers and dramatic cut-ins of decisive lines heighten the game's intensity.

Given the high school setting, seniors retire after the summer tournament. We're also planning to introduce a "User Koshien" feature (not yet available in the current version), where users can compete in tournaments with their teams, preserving data from just before the third-year students retire. An official User Koshien tournament is also on the horizon.
