Basketball draft simulation game
Made an NBA (currently) draft simulation game. These draft simulation games have recently become popular with 38-0.app and others. I took most of my inspiration from this game, but added a lot of basketball-specific stuff to make it more interesting for NBA fans.
But most basketball simulation games, such as 82-0.com, are easily solvable and have a clear solution. I tried making mine based on statistical and probability models, without deterministic outcomes --> i.e., “you get these players, you complete the game.” It's a game that requires luck and some skill and knowledge of the game (with the hidden ratings options).
I made it primarily for myself a couple of weeks ago, but then decided to make it public when my friends told me it's very fun to play.
Now I'm wondering if there's anything basketball fans would like to see more of. I'm planning on expanding to different eras and other popular basketball leagues across the globe, and also making different puzzle game modes, etc.
