67 - John and Blittle League Blaseball
John tells us about his actual play show, Blittle League Blaseball! The show is based on the now passed internet phenomenon, Blaseball. In Blaseball, baseball teams play against each other while using magical and technological powers. Their furious battles satisfy the Elder Ones and prolong the time before the Antediluvians rise and consume the world as we know it. So if there are professional Blaseball players... There must be a Blaseball Little League, right? That's where Blittle League Blaseball comes in!The campaign focuses on a team known as the Summerville Sunflowers. The four PCs are...

How do I Explain That Something Very Important To Me Has Ended?
Blaseball will not be returning. In a lot of ways, this isn't different than a month ago - we didn't have Blaseball then, and we still don't have Blaseball now. Our last regular season episode was thirty-nine. But in more meaningful ways, the world is a little less cool. Even though we gave up talking about blaseball a while ago, this still sucks. Join us as we figure out if there's anything left to say, and keep watch with us as we look forward to a new beginning. In this episode: the final m...

240: Blaseball
We are now participating in the cultural event of Blaseball. Recorded during the final game of the Season 4 Internet Series, we are joined by narrative designer, writer, and Hades Tigers fan Cat Manning. Cat wrote the best explainer article out there for Blaseball. We discuss the game itself, the community around the game (is there any difference between the two?) and what game design lessons can be learned from this unique experience. You can find more of Cat’s writing at her Substack, and her interactive fiction work on itch.io. We recommend What Isn’t Saved (will...

Blaseball
Its that time again, the smell of peanuts in the air, the unending screaming of the damned faintly wafting over the outfield wall. The children all tucked in to their beds with great care, with dreams that BLASEBALL soon would be there. Today I discuss the phenomena that is Blaseball, which is a baseball box score and gambling simulator that thank to some out of the box idea, and TONS of fans getting in on the action, is the ultimate quarantine sport, you have never heard about.

065: Is Anyone a Real Person in Blaseball?
Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels. Last week, John somehow forgot to mention Blaseball, so we kick things off with a deep dive into the nuances of the newly-emerging sport. Speaking of new, Kevin's playing Carrion, which just released this past week, and is loving the John Carpenter/David Cronenberg vibes. From one horror-themed game to another, Randall & Kevin are hooked on Demon's Tilt; a massive virtual pinball table that pays homage to the greats of the 16-bit era. John has a new main in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and he discusses the pros and cons of playing as...

149 - Blaseball
This week, we talk about the absurd and wonderful world of Blaseball, an absurdist fake baseball league by The Game Band. The game’s truly unique format and very timely sense of humor prompts a discussion about ARGs, role-playing games, fandoms, obsessive data miners, and the Blaseball commissioner (who is doing a great job). Blake gives us a play-by-play description of one of the most notorious moments in the league’s three-week history. You can join in the fun here: https://blaseball.com/ And follow the creators on Twitter: @thegameband
