First Base | DAY 1

You're in college. The energy from the sentence alone sums up how you feel about it. Despite never engaging in high school pep rallies or sports matches, you kind of miss the option to.
Thankfully for you, there's a nice place to study by the college baseball field, and it just so happens that one day, you find yourself in one hell of a strange meet-cute with the Ace of the team,
Dakota Cly.
It just might be possible that he is a little too into you...

That was super cute!!!!!! Dakota is sexy... I love the moles hehehehe. As someone who's played catch with a baseball and mitt before I can appreciate Dakota catching that for us with his bare hand, that shit hurts like a B****!!!
I'm sad he's not on our level of gamer but he seems super cute and sweet... love ze sporty uniform too ❤️❤️❤️
Can't wait til more comes out!!!!
thank you !!!
🤍GREAT GAME🖤
I gotta say, that whole diatribe about The Taming of the Shrew was absolutely hilarious, especially since the character i usually play these sorts of games as...just does not notice she's dealing with a yandere lol. Yeah, how DO they not notice when theyre being manipulated?
I like to think of it as we are getting to know him a bit before he shows his full yandere colors. Also hope you do mind that I made another video about your game I was very happy when I saw that you update the game this morning. I love his design and I love your writing.
Thank you! And you are always free to publish your playthrough of First Base o7
Dakota is so sweet 😳 There's no need to worry abt him not being "yandere enough," a subtle lead-up is also nice, but there are lots of clear hints already!
(I wonder how his teammate was injured for him to practice medicine on.... was it perhaps... the person that nearly hit us with a baseball?!)
Haha, thank you for your kind words!
A classic game. Truly peak "I can fix him dw".
The art style is pretty decent, and that guy is pretty hot.
But honestly, the demo was so short, maybe like a minute?
It's kinda hard to tell what the game is actually like with so little to go on 🤔
I'm guessing it's still being worked on, so I'll just assume that's why it's so brief.
Hopefully, we'll get to see more of it is ready.
Bro hit me with the "You ladies alright?"
LOLLL STOP
🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤
ITS U AGAIN!!!....from you tube!!!???!!!
LOVE YA POOKIE!
Is there an official release date of the full game?:O
Oough... Idk </3 This is kind of a "We update at least once in a while" game... With the schedule that we are on, I'd say maybe mid 2025?
I'll be looking forward to playing the full game when it's released!!!!!!!!
Can't wait to get a taste of being whacked by that baseball bat when we try to escape 😂. Sport and Yandere? Sign me up.
Anytime I click on the application for the game my computer says stuff about viruses.
Hi! That can happen. To fix this, you can either play the game via the browser or ignore the antivirus warning (it usually pops up before it can’t identify/verify the creator of the game)
This seems really interesting! Can't wait for the full version!
excited for the next update!
a bit short but nice ,can't wait for more :3
and his smile freaks me out little bit it , he looks like he is about to eat me alive or visit me in my dreams with a knife imao
Oh, this was a short but very interesting demo!! The art was absolutely gorgeous (backgrounds, CG and sprite), the music very soft - I enjoyed it a lot, and Dakota interesting, but I'll detail it a bit more below. I particulatly appreciated the writing style: I do love the use of 2nd-person narration, and the phrasing has an excellent flow.
(SPOILERS, PLAY THE DEMO FIRST BEFORE READING THE REST)
I'm quite surprised the game already hints at Dakota's stalking nature, right before the first choice. His expression when we refuse the offer is quite telling, but the fact the glitchy text already appears was quite interesting. Especially since the full game should be around 50k, it makes me wonder about HOW WILD OF A RIDE IT IS GOING TO BE (the trigger warnings already suggest a lot, but damn, I am curious!). He is also VERY FORWARD when it comes to rizzing us up, which is interesting: it indicates the game will be less about progressively building the romance, and more about living through it and either escaping it or dying because of it. It is interesting and I'm looking forward to more!! Congrats to all the team on a great demo!
YESS!! You get it!! He wastes no time, lol. Thank you for playing the demo!
listen, i get that its only 600 words, but the artwork and music have me hooked. cannot wait for the rest to release!!!
