I BUILT A FULL 3D BASKETBALL GAME WITH CAREER, GM, AND COACH MODES — COMMUNITY ROSTERS AND DRAFT CLASSES, LIVE 3D GAMES OR SIM, AND 2 YEARS OF SOLO DEV. LOOKING FOR TESTERS!
I've been working on My Hoop Legacy for almost two years now, and I'm finally opening it up for testing. It's a mobile basketball sim built around a blocky/retro 3D game engine, with three full game modes. It is meant for mobile and eventually will be released on IOS and Android but I am working on cleaning up the desktop or laptop version.
Career lets you create a player and live the whole journey — college, the draft, and a full NBA career — with a deep skill tree, signature moves, badges, sponsorships, and a text/relationship system with teammates, agents, and media that actually shapes your story as you go.
GM puts you in charge of an entire front office: trades, cap management, draft scouting with private workouts, facility and staff upgrades, and a season-long relationship with ownership where ambition, budget, and job security are all genuinely on the line.
Coach has you building a college program from scratch through recruiting, a real staff, and a playbook, with the option to climb all the way up into the NBA coach ranks.
Every game can be played out live in 3D — full arena crowds, a shot-stick control scheme, real box scores and shot charts — or simulated if you just want to manage and watch the results roll in. I've also put a lot of work into building real historical NBA rosters and draft classes, so you can start a rebuild or a career in a specific era with actual players and actual draft boards instead of generic fictional teams.
This is currently a web build for testing, but it's eventually headed to become a proper phone app. Longer term, I'm hoping to build out online gameplay, a persistent world/environment, and real multiplayer modes.
Development is very much ongoing — there's a long list of features and polish still planned — but I want to get more people testing it at this stage to catch bugs and hear what's working (or not). Any feedback, bug reports, or suggestions are genuinely welcome and will directly shape what gets built next.
Let me know what you think!!!
