@Leb_Zeppelins My guy

Now that the WC is over and the Sox are back. It’s time @HomeRunEmpire

Hardwood Empire 3.5 is being submitted to the App Store today and should be out in the coming days. This one adds a coaching pressure layer, a real player development system, a rebuilt transfer portal, and a reworked pro draft. Player Development
Set a Focus for every player and his growth follows it. New Offseason Training Camp lets you spend development points to push guys toward 99, and a Growth History tab tracks every player's year-by-year climb. The redshirt call now comes after camp, so you decide once you've seen the jump. Coaching Pressure & Season Story
Your AD sets preseason expectations, and you're graded against them with a new End-of-Season Report Card. Morale & Locker Room rebuilt, talk to any player, make real promises, and keep them or lose his trust. New Story Events pull real players from your roster, with real consequences. New Transfer Portal
Portal points now scale with your open roster spots, so rebuilds get real chances. Recruiting skill matters more than prestige, top transfers are harder to land, and position crowding is respected. No more free superteams. Smarter Pro Draft
The entire pro draft was reworked, who declares and who can be talked into staying now weighs position, OVR, potential, stats, your development track record, and more. Game Day
New Game Preview Gameplan you can mix and match inline, redesigned halftime adjustments (now 3x2 with a sixth option), and a cleaner post-game box score. Plus bigger title celebrations, conference and national championships now get logo glow, confetti, haptics, and sound. Custom Rosters
Add a logo per conference at center court, plus one-tap Update Conference Logos for existing dynasties. Polish
Premium in-game notifications (the gray toast pills are gone), tabular figures on scores and clocks, bigger tap targets, and real press feedback everywhere. Bug Fixes & More
Faster recruiting with arrows to flip through prospects, committed recruits now show true OVR/POT, more social-media takes with clickable player names, injuries now correctly miss games, fixed dead taps at the top of screens, and squashed a recruiting-changeover crash. Full patch notes: empiresportsapps.com/patch-notes Appreciate everyone who keeps playing and pushing this game forward.

@3rdAndJacks I’ll fix that for u

@HomeRunEmpire I’m down to test on Apple. Another question, is it possible to make it so you can listen to music while playing? Whenever I go from Spotify to the app it pauses.

Home Run Empire update 1.2.5 is out! I've been working with everyone that said they had a busted file and recovering covering all their saves so hopefully most of the bug fixes are good I can finally get to adding more of the features you guys want. Android Update: Everything is good to go.I just haven't had had many testers respond and give feedback on how it plays that frequently. If you guys want, I can just release it now in the state that it's in, knowing that it might be laggy, but I'd really appreciate it if some people reached out wanting to test on Android. Anyways, thanks for all your patience and constant support.

@abeishim08 Bet. gonna DM you now.

@HomeRunEmpire I volunteer as a android tester

@MECorliss Awesome, DMing you now.

@HomeRunEmpire I'll test!

Hey everybody! I’ve been working on a fix for your guys crash points . It should be out tonight or earlier tomorrow. I’m sorry some users are experiencing this. Also if you would like to be a tester for the game and help me add new features and sort these type of issues out, please DM me!

@daltonb067 Yes have been looking into fixes last 24 hours should be live by tonight or tomorrow. I appreciate your patience. Are you on 1.2.2?

@HomeRunEmpire Can’t even play my season, everytime I click it it puts me in a ad and when I close it it just kicks me out

Hey everybody! 1.2.2 is live! Hope you are all enjoying the game. This one has been pending for a while, so I've already made some good progress on 1.3.

@EricLind123 Yes have been looking into fixes last 24 hours should be live by tonight or tomorrow. I appreciate your patience.

@HomeRunEmpire Game is unplayable after the update. Very slow, crashes 50% of the time after the tournament game is played.

@jimmmybob6769 I'd say try to go after players who really have interest in you. The points have 7 times the value as they do in hardwood

@HomeRunEmpire Actually ends up usually around 4-5 recruits post draft, just feel like that part needs some work to fill the roster better, it seems like the same system which worked for hardwood but with the rosters in this being much larger I feel like we need some more.

This is the recruits going pro. Each recruit has MLB draft odds. If you’re referring to a signing day, not seeing the names, there’s a glitch or not every name that signs pro is being shown. I can show you that they are being drafted though. I submitted a 1.2.3 that fixes just this. You also have the ability to turn this off in the Settings tab.

@jimmmybob6769 @HomeRunEmpire Had 15 commits in a class and 4 made it to campus.. that needs to be nerfed

@keaganschoenha5 Posted an update on Friday night. Apple hasn't approved it yet for users that are running into this.

@HomeRunEmpire Every time I try to play it makes me watch an ad and then freezes so it’s unplayable for me

1.2.1 has been approved and is live now! Make sure to update your app. More on android and next update soon.

@Bettingbanditt Settings tab

@HomeRunEmpire How do you turn off sound in game ?

@PYotrer79663 Doing a focus pass on this right now. I didn't have any testers run into this, so it's news to me. I'll work on it tonight and make sure there's no traces left and get that uploaded as soon as possible

@HomeRunEmpire I love the game but it is unplayable for me. Every time I load into my save the game crashes. Stuck at mid season I have watched 10 ads. Auto sim always pauses and manual does too. Games don’t save I was in the regional final then I reloaded the game and I was back at the start

@PYotrer79663 Looking into now, thanks!

@CollegeBSBNews Try out my new game in meantime!

A new College Baseball video game would be so much fun to have 🔥 (concepts via mccroskycreative)

@GregTerry_44 Me telling my kids about Leo Carroll

Is this lineup ok? @HomeRunEmpire

What’s up everybody, a new Home Run Empire 1.2.1 update was submitted last night to the App Store and should be out today. Conference Realignment Programs can now earn promotions into stronger conferences. Build a winner, dominate your league, and move up the college baseball ladder. Smarter Hitting AI Batters now make smarter swing decisions in 3-0 counts for more realistic at-bats. Gameplay & Quality of Life Committed recruits no longer disappear on Signing Day. Players from schools you weren’t recruiting can no longer randomly appear on your roster. Opposing pitchers now get pulled when fully gassed instead of occasionally reaching unrealistic pitch counts. Pitcher recruiting ratings now better match the information shown during recruiting. Starting pitchers can now be used out of the bullpen in MANAGE games. Pitchers receive rest between later postseason rounds. God Mode pitcher role changes (Starter ↔ Reliever) update immediately and persist across seasons. Starting a reliever now correctly records a Game Started when appropriate. Teams from the same conference can no longer be placed in the same playoff pod. Play-by-play fixes and pitch animation improvements. Injured players no longer appear in live-game selection menus. Your previous coach is properly replaced when taking a new job. Settings now carry over automatically into new dynasties. Thanks for all the feedback and bug reports. Keep them coming!
