College Football Coach 2017 for Android

[antdroid]

After working on several roster projects here on OS, I've decided to take a break from them over the past couple weeks and work on expanding some source code a developer posted on GitHub for a game called Football Coach on Android. The game is basically a college football game GM-style text sim. I've done some significant updates to existing (free) game and have been putting out beta files to play around with on my GitHub.

There's also an iOS version that another developer has been working on over the past year or so as well, as well as a NFL and College Hoops version.

If you're interested in the developments, you can check out the reddit page

or my GitHub: https://github.com/minotauri/CFB-Coach


UPDATED: Now available on Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...droid.cfbcoach

If anyone is interested in this game, the Android fork I've been working on is getting some new updates this month and has significantly improved and enhanced since when I first made this post.

In addition, an iOS version has seen a major upgrade recently as well.

After 6 months of development, I am finally going to release a stable version of College Football Coach: Career Edition. This has been a fun project that to learn Java & Android programming and to expand upon an already time-waster game, Football Coach by Achi Jones (https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...?id=Coach+Apps).

I've luckily had a great resource of testers for this app via Reddit and my friends/family. It's gone through a lot of make overs and feature changes. I'm pretty happy with where it's at now. There is also an iOS fork of the original game in development by Aksay Easwaran (https://github.com/akeaswaran) that has some of this versions new elements in it, and is on the App Store.

Anyway, here's high level list of the hundreds and thousands of new code I put into this project.

Thanks. I'm prepping a new update with the new college rule changes and some Mock Draft improvements and some other random cleanup fixes

Just wanted to throw out that on Android this game is being updated heavily. It has a lot more depth, you can get fired or take a better position, players get suspended, the prestige mechanic was overhauled, TEs and a second safety were added, defensive stats, special team stats. It's a great game. Under College Football Coach: Career Edition on the Play Store
