Update Version 1.10 Preview: New Arena Audio
Hey everyone!
Just wanted to give a first look at some new additions coming to Hoop Land Update Version 1.10 AKA the College Franchise Mode Update! The first thing I wanted to improve on was the arena atmosphere of college games. I contacted the sound designer of the Hoop Land's current arena beats and requested some college specific drumbeats, crowd chants, and intermission band music. Check out the video for a preview of the new audio and for a small surprise at the end..
Some other small additions I've added:
- The ability to simulate a single round of the tournament/playoffs
- Players hair color will turn slightly more gray as they age (if Appearance Aging is enabled)
- Deceased players and coaches will appear in black/white
Hoop Land Steam Edition is also on sale for 10% off during the Steam Summer Sale going on now thru July 9 at 10 AM PT so don't miss out! I also plan to enable Steam Cloud save support soon so that you can easily sync your season save data across multiple devices.
The release date of Version 1.10 is still TBD but my goal is to release it before the end of the year. This is just the beginning and I will be showing off more development progress in the coming weeks and months. Be sure to let me know your thoughts below and have a great rest of your weekend!
