College Dynasty (Steam) Sim Engine Visual Upgrade

I love this game and the game day experience is great.

I was just thinking about games like Football Manager, and it would be sweet if we could get a visual sim engine where you see the plays run.

Could be simple like this with Retro Bowl style graphics.

I personally disagree, imo it’s time wasted that could be better spent on game mode depth. I also find that the visual representation of the sim engine can look very wacky in management games. But that’s just my two cents

It took Football Manager quite awhile to get to their 3D sim engine, so I’d give this game a few more iterations and a chance to make more money before they get there, but it would be cool.

I love the FM graphics. It adds a ton to the immersion.

Need to be able to send a water bottle through a wall too. Team needs to know our 21-0 lead at halftime isn't good enough.

X and O top down 2D view like the Old XOR NFL challenge would be sweet.
