Serve? Strike? Mike-A-Like!!!
What's it like to be Mike?
You're a Pippins in TV World. The job's tough and your pay sucks. But the gambling scene's great... as long as your stuffy boss doesn't stick his nose in your business.
One day, you sneak into the mysterious Mike Room for fun... and fall into the hands of a terrible trio of coworkers. Turns out: Mike may not be real, they're all pretending to be him, and they want you to take their shifts while they hunt for the truth!
Will you protect TV World’s right to bet by serving Tenna on hand and foot?
Or will you make his life hell for ruining your friends' fun?
It's all up to you! Just... try not to get fired?

About Serve? Strike? Mike-A-Like!!!
What is this?
Serve? Strike? Mike-A-Like!!! is a Deltarune fangame made for TV Time! A Tenna Zine — a charity fanbook about Mr. "Ant" Tenna.
All proceeds from the fanbook will go to the PBS Foundation.
Who made this?
This game was directed, illustrated, written and animated by Mado as a tribute to Deltarune (her favorite game) and Mr. "Ant" Tenna (her favorite character.) Though she's aware that Tenna only exists in the 2D world, she still hopes he'll like her project.
Serve? Strike? Mike-A-Like!!!'s minigames were programmed and refined by Azxiana. Without her patience and expertise in backend coding, this game would not exist.
The game's soundtrack was composed by rootvegetableboy, magic&melodies, RainyWishes, and NarcolepsyDriver. Their clever arrangements bring new life to familiar Deltarune tunes. When you're done with the game, check out the #$@!& $%#* to listen to their work in full!

Can I make fanwork for this?
Yes, please! We'd love to see what you make. Tag it as #mikealikeWhat's the password for the Mike room? (I didn't fight Mike in Deltarune Chapter 4)
Since you asked... 6453I can't type anything for the Mike Room password...
Delete the 0s!The game's not opening on my computer! Help!
Windows: Extract the game to your Program Files folder on your Windows C drive. Alternatively, change the name of the folder where you extract your Ren'Py games.Mac: Follow this tutorial.
Linux: If you're using a modern system (above X11), use this script! If not, then follow this tutorial.
Why does the browser version lag/load images weirdly/not play well on my mobile device?
Ren'Py web builds don't perform as smoothly as the downloadable builds. However, you should still be able to get all of the endings in the game.Mike-a-Like was not designed for mobile devices, and so won't work properly if you try to play it on one.
However, the game's source code and assets are open, so if you're interested in porting the game to mobile devices, feel free! Just be sure to credit everyone involved on the team.
This game is not canon. It's a fan tribute!
We hope you enjoy playing it as much as we've enjoyed making it.
Have fun, and feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!

found no bugs. had a blast. it's so animated and unique. 10/10
thank you so much!!! glad you had fun
this was a great game! i loved every part of it!!! (even if the simon says minigame did make me want to rip my hair out) overall i enjoyed it a lot and im looking forward to playing other games you might make!
thank you so much!! if you liked this game, you might like my original game series (the Violence series) too.
THIS IS SO FREAKING CUTE!! i love the way each character is stylized (the pippins expressions are IMMACULATE), i got a-rank on my first playthrough and then i replayed to get a t-rank :) the game feels like the perfect length for what it has to offer, and the sound/music design is lovely as well!! this inspires me to make a deltarune fangame heehee
thank you so much!!!! i’m glad you enjoyed your time with the game — and that it’s inspiring you to make your own ☺️
extremely cool, loved playing (although doing the b rank and c rank endings made me feel bad for tenna :C dont make me do that again please /hj)
thank you for playing!! glad you had fun :>
This is awesome I LOVE IT good job
thank you so much!! (i also liked "And Now The Grand Prize"... the true route made me misty-eyed)
AWWW OMG THANK YOUU YAAY
this is super cool, tenna is absolutely adorable dude
thank you!! and he is, yes
i love how the S-rank ending is everyone hating you- but then T-rank is just getting slapped into an x-reader fanfic of wholesomeness
YEAH.... the contrast is great, isn't it?
tenna's design is so cute!! <3
thanks!!
can't open it...
a browser version is now available!!
YAY!!!
the browser version is kinda slow...
OH MY GOD I WANT TO KISS BATTAT ON THE LIPS HE IS SO STINKIN CUTE IN THISSSS TY FOR MAKING THIS GAME. I LOVED PLAYING IT AND I ACCIDENTALLY GOT T RANK..
thank you!! glad you had fun
"You got the S rank ending!"
Lets go, S rank!
"S is for sellout"
awww...
“Oh cool, a deltarune fangame, huh, I’m already following this account? Wait, MADO MALVIOLENCE!?!” Happy to see another project from you :D !
YES!!! it is me. hope you had fun with the game!
No channel yet, but i'm definitely making this a video
excited to see it!
will there be a browser version?
i have excellent news
If you're wondering about the "I can't type anything for the Mike Room password..." Question. I'm the reason it's there in the first place!
You're welcome (; w ;)
CUTE OMG
thank you!!
Is there any plans for a mobile version? The game looks super fun and I love the art style :)
idk about a mobile version, but i might work on a web version of the game so that more people can play...
your game made me bi, in like, the mid-est way possible wtf
i lk wanna puke foam from joy, wth mate
LOL i'm glad you had fun with the game...
if i'd start to write everything i loved in this game i might write a whole book, so i'll just say that the way you characterized all of them was really lovely, tenna's sprites look so moe and the soundtrack is so nice, i might just put it in a few of my playlists.
also, for some damn reason, whenever i read battat's dialogue aloud i had scottish accent. this shall be canon to me now.
thank you so much for the kind words!!! i'm glad you had fun with the game (and that you enjoyed tenna's sprites. i took special care to make him moe.)
THIS IS SO CUTE OMG?? 🥹
thank you!!!
hihi!! I was wondering if you could add a setting to change the resolution of the game? It's quite laggy for me in fullscreen and the issue is usually that the resolution is way too high for my computer to handle. The game seems wonderful so far though!! :)))
i don't know if i can do resolution changes... but given the lag, i might have a way to cut down filesizes for the images/ui used in game, which could help. it might take a little bit, though.
genuine question. is this
based off of this
bc I made that mug and if it is I will scream and cry and throw up with joy
it was not, but what a cute coincidence!!!!! this is an adorable mug....
bad news, the game was really pretty and i eated the art style, no one else can play now
oh no!!!
this game made me more gay somehow
good
i came for bronze and i found diamond 🥹
thank you for enjoying the game!!
sorry for the inconvenience, but it is not letting me download the game, I click on the download botton and it says it is download but it´s not, is there some step I am missing?
i'm not sure! did you check your downloads or downloads tab?
yes and nothing appears, I tried another method but when I click download nothing appears, like it doesnt´t take me to download
Now is letting me!!, it seens it was a problem with itch.io, sorry for the inconveniance, I´m really excited to play it :
no worries! have fun!!
this game is actually amazing i love all the sprite work stuff and i love the expressions for Literallt everything here.
thank you!!
This was absolutely so much fun!! I had a blast trying to figure out how to get all the endings! The visuals are so cartoony but in character I just adore them. The music is snappy and makes the overall gameplay that much more fun! Good job to everyone on the team!! You all did amazing! :}!!
thank you so much!! thats very sweet of you to say
Artstyle and the life of tenna was really cute, intermissions were awesome to look at and experience quizes, love the endings and narrating it. Thank you for making this!

Im playing on a shitty laptop with a mouse pad, I keep trying the sorting minigame and between the lag and difficulty using a mouse pad to click and drag fast enough I dont know if I can even get S rank... TvT Maybe Im just bad but I wanna see the T rank ending!!!
I LOV THIS SM TENNA LOOKS SO CUTE I LOVE HIM EVERYTHING IN THIS GAME IS INCREDIBLE AND I LOVELOVELOVE THE T RANK ENDING NOMNOM ILY
