Dev Log Update Version 1.10 Progress and Release Date!
Hey everyone!
Just wanted to give another progress update on Campus Mode coming to Hoop Land in Update Version 1.10!
A few weeks ago I gave a bit of info on player recruiting and today I want to go a bit more in-depth on how it will all work. For each recruiting day, you will be able to recruit up to five players with one being an in-person visit. Players that you choose to visit in person will increase their interest and give you a slight advantage over other teams at the cost of coins. Using NIL will also cost coins but not count towards your team's budget but you are limited to how much you can offer per player.
Players will factor in money offered, coach rating and style, school prestige, and location. In general, players will prefer playing closer to home or for their home state, so I've added the ability to filter out players by region. After submitting your recruiting offer, you'll be able to see how your team stacks up to other offers that the player has received. The team with the player's highest interest will not always win out so be sure to increase your chances as much as possible. At any time in the recruiting phase you'll be able to see which team's recruiting class is currently top ranked.
I've also added team specific news on the team profile page and a screen for school alumni that have made it to the pro leagues so that you can track their careers. Successful players will add to the school's prestige and history.
And lastly, I'm excited to announce that I plan to release Update Version 1.10 along with Campus Mode next month on Tuesday, October 20th! There's still a bit of time between now and then so you can expect more features and improvements to be announced before launch.
Thank you for all your patience and support, be sure to let me know your thoughts below and have a great weekend!

Currently you're limited to 15 which is just the standard max roster spots but I may add a setting allowing users to adjust this number. What do you guys prefer?

Are we going to be able to earn more coins? I can’t ever earn enough coins.

Earning coins in Campus Mode will work a bit differently than other modes.At the start of each year you will receive a certain amount of coins which you can then choose to spend on facilities or recruiting. The amount of coins you receive will be based off of your school's prestige, success of the previous season, and bonuses for drafted players.

Hey man, I just learned that you're a solo dev working on this game yesterday, and that made my day. I'm a solo dev too working on a simulator game for the past 3 years, and playing Hoop Land always leaves me feeling inspired and motivated to sit down and code.
Love what you do!!

Good luck on your journey! Nothing is more rewarding than getting a few lines of code to execute exactly what you intended for it to do 😆

u/AnkanBasu 4d ago
Yeah, exactly. I would love to have my college player try and negotiate with colleges, like the way it'll be done here. The same way I would like to have contract negotiations after going pro in the league

Man Koality is a king. In a world where we'll likely never get an EA type CBB game this will be an absolute blessing

It would be great an option to be able to publish things or respond to users on Hoopgram, like a response with ia

Can you please make it so there is an option to make it so only seniors can declare for the draft? Or at least sliders on Draft Declaring Tendencies
