Half-court basketball coach
A downloadable game for Windows
My new discord for this:
Half-court basketball coach allows you to manage a team, set rosters, get allocated to one of five divisions and then watch your team play a season of ten games.
This is coach mode and only coach mode. A type of basketball simulation. Here is what you can expect (some features are TBD or WIP):
- a roster management game where you need to draft players into your roster.
- watch your team play against other teams. Learn your teams strengths and weakness.
- real players can control one or more teams or let most teams - or all teams!! - be controlled by bots.
- off-line mode allows a host to share game files for other players to participate off-line.
- host and players exchange files via email etc so they can play off-line in their own time in their own way.
- watch and re-watch every game in replay mode. No need to view a game live. Every game is shared offline so players can watch anytime that is convenient. Engage with your friends without being on line or forced to watch live streams.
- every player has different skills and abilities. Can you put the right roster together and succeed?
- stats, stats and more stats. Player stats. Team stats. Season stats. Lots of stats! (TBD)
- play against 29 other teams (same as NBA). Learn names and players and get to know the super stars.
- 5 divisions in promotion/relegation format. Win one division and progress to the next!
- Cosy 6 team divisions with "home" and "away" games. Small enough to really form a grudge against a team.
- Fast sim one game or one week or one season or you can sim just the bot games. (WIP)
- 5 player teams in a half-court format keeps the action moving.
- More features and depth to be announced later.
Game in development - this is a super raw alpha release. Things you need to know about this version:
- there are bugs
- there are placeholder graphics
- there aren't any options for music/sound etc
- there aren't many stats
- there are no instructions
What does work:
- you can play a full season
- you can play lots of seasons
- you can get promoted or relegated
- you can watch and replay games
- you can do end of season draft
- you can play with your friends
- you can get to know your roster
- you can adjust your roster
- you can do lots of things!
- and it's free!
Just know this is a WIP with many more updates to come. =)
