Hey Darryl, welcome to GM Games. Hoops Manager or do you mean Basketball Dynasty Manager?

Congratulations Gary (Gorski) on all your hard work leading up to this release.

Sweet!

Love this thread. We helped motivate him!

GM Games has received a communication from Revo Games that indicates the game is still being worked on. They intend to ramp up their marketing with a new website soon but the work is largely an indie development project.

Really looking forward to see where this goes — definitely with OOTP Developments the resources are there but as always, how sophisticated will the simulation engine be for football when you have to consider so many factors, attributes, positions, playbooks, etc.

Gareth, I noticed something for logos and UX / graphics going on with their twitter. I have been following up without the greatest communication back to us.. I REALLY appreciate the insight. Jim is a great functional developer but needs to know that workflows, graphics and interface are big to enjoy using the application.

Maybe if you want to private message me what type of game or sport it is, I can point you in a direction.

I think a lot of the guys here are trying their best but it's usually a passion of theirs. I don't see many that would program for free unless they saw an opportunity to make money. The games they are making right now are usually because they love these games like we do..

Hi Lemour, are you one of the developers? An owner? or just an avid fan? Thanks

Welcome aboard! We look forward to having you in the community

No worries, your 2D engine is actually one of the most fun to watch. I'd be curious to know what the main algorithm is of your simulation engine. If players have in-depth attributes and how that goes about determining success?

Today was definitely rough at work but so worth it! Canada double Hockey Gold! woot

Thank you Francis -- your accessibility is really encouraging when it comes to our hopes for a great game. Looking forward to the evolution of it.

Wow great record to start your first campaign -- looking like Calder Cup favourites.

Woke up. Just added a text at 4:25 AM Eastern to prove it! Woo Let's go Canada!

Welcome. I would definitely like to know how in-depth thus far your simulation engine is.. What kind of core factors are being used to determine outcomes? Cheers

Hahaha awesome. Since Canada plays at 7am Eastern time vs Sweden. My friends and I are waking up at 5am and starting to pre-drink. Should be a crazy day!

Awesome, I'll be even interested to hear about the progress of players or top prospects going pro or great leagues in Europe.

Wow, Russia is out .. way to go Finland! Rask 37 saves -- big time.

The concept from ESPN 2k5 made simulating so much more immersed by having a weekly sportscentre broadcast. You could see how your team did and follow what's happening in the league so easily.. Some features in the SportsCentre broadcast "Weekly Scores, Stats .. Trade analysis" "The big play from the game.." "Free Agent signing" I'm still in love with this feature..

Hey it's really exciting to have you join us on the forums. Your game is making a lot of noise on reddit.

We are pleased to announce that GM Games now has a Steam community. We will be posting all of our content over there as announcements. If you are a frequent member of Steam, please join up as a member! Here is the link: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/gmgames

Although these games are not part of our core coverage, I think these games are great and love that you share it with us on the forums. Even more fun I bet after seeing the movie 'Rush'

How has your development through the youth system been? Any bright spots?
