Full Count Club — a baseball roguelike built on poker. One person, no publisher, ships when it's good.

Now brewing: Full Count Club
[email protected]
Who's in the lab
I'm Joe. Corner Lab is just me.
I'm building Full Count Club — a roguelike where every at-bat is a poker hand. Draw, read the count, build a better hand. Then decide: swing, or pass it to the next batter.
Baseball for poker players. Poker for baseball fans.
No publisher. No roadmap I have to answer to. It ships when it's fun and good.
Questions
Is this just Balatro with baseball?+
Fair question, and I'm not going to pretend the lineage isn't obvious. The difference is the lineup. You're not playing one hand — you're deciding whether to swing on a decent hand now or pass the problem to the next batter. That's a baseball-shaped decision a pure card game doesn't have.
When does it come out?+
When it's fun and good. No publisher, no date I have to hit.
What platforms?+
PC first. Everything else depends on how it goes.
Can I playtest?+
Yes, please. Join the Discord or get on the list — I'd rather find out what's broken now than after launch.
Is there a team?+
No. It's me.
Do you use AI to make this?+
Yes, as a tool. It writes boilerplate, catches my bugs, and helps me iterate on numbers faster than I could alone. It isn't making design decisions. Every mechanic, every card, and every dumb baseball pun came out of my head. Deciding what's fun isn't something you can outsource, and I haven't tried.
