The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Bat & Ball is launching in Early Access to grow with the community and shape the game based on real player feedback. The core gameplay is already solid and fully playable, but we’re building toward a more feature-rich experience—including server-side leaderboards, unlockable bat and ball skins, and additional gameplay polish.

By joining Early Access, players can help influence the direction of future updates, test features as they roll out, and be part of the game's evolution from the ground up.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Bat & Ball will likely remain in Early Access for 2 to 4 months as core features like server-side leaderboards and unlockable cosmetic content are developed, tested, and refined. This timeframe may shift depending on community feedback and the pace of development, but the goal is a focused, feature-complete 1.0 release—not a drawn-out roadmap.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version of Bat & Ball is planned to expand on the core gameplay with additional features that enhance replayability and progression. This includes:

Server-side leaderboards for more competitive and secure score tracking

Unlockable bat and ball skins earned through in-game milestones

Performance improvements and refined mouse controls

Visual and audio polish to improve the overall feel and feedback of gameplay

Possible additions like new environments, game modes, or challenge types based on community interest

The goal is to keep the game fast, minimalist, and skill-based—while adding depth and motivation to keep players coming back.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core gameplay loop of Bat & Ball is fully functional and stable. Players can swing the bat using mouse controls, hit balls in an endless scoring mode, and build streaks to test their reflexes and focus. The game features:

A complete and responsive control system

Polished minimalist visuals and clean UI

Smooth performance and quick game sessions

While the foundation is solid, features like online leaderboards, cosmetic unlocks, and additional visual polish are planned for future updates during Early Access.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“During Early Access, Bat & Ball will be available at a lower introductory price to thank our early supporters. We plan to increase the price when the full version launches to reflect the additional content, improvements, and features added during development.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Bat & Ball, the community isn’t just a group of players—it’s a vital part of the development journey. Throughout Early Access, we’re committed to fostering an open dialogue where player voices shape the game’s future. We’ll actively listen and respond through:

Dedicated Steam Community Channels for direct feedback, bug reports, and ideas

Frequent Dev Updates that keep players informed and invite ongoing input

Interactive Polls and Surveys to prioritize features and improvements based on what matters most to you

Transparent Roadmaps so everyone can see what’s coming next and contribute to the conversation

By building this partnership early, Bat & Ball will evolve into a finely tuned, player-driven experience—where every hit counts both on the field and in development.

About This Game

Bat & Ball is a fast, focused baseball-inspired challenge where every swing counts.

Built around pure reflexes and precision, the gameplay is simple to learn and brutally satisfying to master. You control everything with just your mouse — time your swings, keep the streak alive, and don’t let anything drop.

No tutorials. No fluff. Just you, the bat, and the rising pressure of perfection.

No Microtransactions. No Shortcuts.

There are no loot boxes, no premium currencies. Every cosmetic bat and ball skin is unlocked through gameplay — not through extra purchases.

Once earned, skins become tradable Steam Inventory items, so you can collect, trade, or sell them on the Steam Marketplace.
