Hello Again Hockey Fans!
Like to start off by thanking again those of you that already have the game and I am working hard to get it completed! The big challenge again is getting the game in front of my audience to show them that yes there is a game that's just like some old 8-Bit titles but actually plays like hockey haha! So always working on that, a little bit of success with advertising, but still not where I want to be but also I am working on the game to finish it so I can't exactly devote all the time I have to making the game known anyway Alas... Let's get some updates going!

Franchise Mode:
GOODNESS IMPLEMENTING THIS IS QUITE THE WORKLOAD. But hey, I'm working on it! Right now, the Draft stuff is working, the Challenge aspect is working, The Rink Schedule Generator seems to be working haha. Doing a lot of work with all the data that's going into the mode. There is going to be at least 300 players in the Franchise Mode along with some special characters, special teams, and all that good stuff.
Achievements:
I expect to complete Arcade and Exhibition Mode Acheivements by the end of April.
