Season beta interest?

[TippingGoat]

I was thinking of doing a private Season Mode beta on Steam prior to the Xbox One release.

This would require signing an NDA, and would be an early build for discussing bugs, problems, confusion, etc.

If there's interest in being a part of that, check in here!

YES PLEASE!!!

Yes, I'd love to be in on that.

Well sadly at this point I don't know that it makes sense to make a special beta edition for two folks. I really appreciate your interest and will let y'all know if anything changes.

Well it looks like Steam Remote Play can work if anyone is interested playing along in a live demo of Season Mode. Just tried it with Jasuchin and it worked pretty well, though there was a bit of lag.

I'm going to try this game with the Steam Link and play with some friends. Really enjoying it so far :3

Glad to hear it, it's a cool new Steam feature so I'm curious what people's experiences are.

Also if you or your friends would like to try out Season Mode before it is finished, I can try sending a remote play invite to y'all. We'd just need to sync up schedules, but I am pretty flexible.

Once it is released, of course.

I'm interested in testing it out, if it's still an option.

[Kutya88]

Would love to try it.

I sent you a friend request. I was close to a build but have introduced a new weird bug, only in the build, which is taking some time to nail down. I'm hoping I can do some demonstrations in a day or two.

whats the progress on franchise mode

The big news is I've got the game running again on the Xbox One dev kit after having finished the bulk of Season Mode. I'm currently doing a lot of testing to make as stable a build as I can before I begin implementing Xbox One achievements. One of the big pieces is saving/loading isn't implemented for Xbox One universally yet. The controller config screen crashes but so far it seems stable otherwise.

Beyond that there's some cleanup and ending work to do, QoL improvements, minor stuff I can mop up once the game is closer to fully satisfying the Xbox One requirements. It's getting closer and closer. I can't tell you a release date but I'd love for it to be submitted for certification this year.

I blog updates about once a month at TippingGoat.com if you're interested.
