Ill be making a guide as best I can, but a basic knowledge might still be needed. A lot of stuff I can only explain so much in words, images or seeing it would work better. I’ll attempt to do my best though.
The bug is fixed somewhat, but I’m trying to get the new scene to appear by itself, not attached to last choice.

A very unique and ambitious WIP. I enjoyed the demo very much and would like to revisit it to get a better feel for the story so far. I think you’re doing great so far, keep at it and good luck.

@Tinyblake Thanks means a lot that people like it, makes writing easier.
Update ill have a new chapter by this weekend at latest. Not sure of the length, but most likely it will be shorter then the prologue. This chapter focuses mainly of relationships with all the characters. Don’t Worry there is going to be more basketball games in the Freshman Chapter.

Well I find ash awesome, however I’m a straight male so that’s my preference as well

I like Brad a little more than Ace personally, because Brad seems more shy in certain scenes, and I like shy guys

I think the poll may be a little biased by the audience for the game. I suspect a large percentage of your audience is straight males, and straight males, in general, tend to be the least willing to explore gay options or play as a female to romance males. Funny thing though is that many of them will play female MC to go after an interesting lesbian female though. Always seemed a bit weird to me as a straight male that likes story for story sake. I have not read through the romances, so I can’t give an opinion to which I think is the most interesting. That is because I don’t want to spoil this game and I look forward to playing it when it is finished.

@nickm @2xs that’s a goos point I fogot about sexual prefrence being a factor. I plan on writing another female ro in this week
@Ant_Merf Hecs very shy but he has a pretty outgoing secret later. Ace will have some of the more imaginative date scenes to,go with his exploring personality

lmao i loved cloe from life is strange and max, and certainly i did go for the lesbian route,
she is just too cute, and max too by the way.
is nothing weird, people will always have different tastes, i never once romanced any male npc in all the games i have played, is just called preference. If it was for storys sake i think people will read all possible romances and dont miss anything.
@Omegareaven if some people find it difficult since they dont know basket, you can always add a explanation of the choices and maybe include a summary for each stats too.

As a lesbian, I felt that Ash was the obvious choice for romance to me.

I’m a big basketball fan and seeing this WIP bring a smile to my face:grin:
One aspect of the NBA that I enjoy is the nicknames like The Brow, The Beard, The Black Mamba, Splash bros, Tragic Bronson, and my personal favorite The Round Mound of Rebound. So, I was wondering if the MC gets to have one?

Okay, so…I just saw this, and randomly decided to give it a try, and thought I might offer my two cents.
Your game is…not very accessible to anyone not already familiar with basketball. As someone who knows next to nothing about the actual sport, a lot of your terminology was confusing to me, and since there’s no explanation about anything, I spent a lot of the time with no clue what my character was doing. Admittedly, I didn’t get very far - I got up to the point where I could choose a position, and because I felt totally lost with no clue where my character should go, I quit.
I suppose, if you only care about basketball fans playing your game, it’s fine - I just think if you added more explanation for people who don’t know the sport, you’d open it up to a larger audience.
(As a matter of comparison, ‘Slammed!’ did a great job with that - I don’t really know or care about wrestling itself, but it’s still one of my favorite CoGs because I didn’t have to be. The game told me most of what I needed to know.)
