Hoop Land is a 2D hoops sim inspired by the greatest retro basketball games of the past. Play, spectate, or simulate each game and experience the ultimate basketball sandbox where college and professional leagues are seamlessly integrated into every season. DEEP RETRO GAMEPLAY An endless variety of game options give you complete control of the action with ankle breakers, spin moves, step backs, alley-oops, chase down blocks, and more. Every shot is determined by true 3D rim and ball physics resulting in dynamic and unpredictable moments. BUILD YOUR LEGACY Create your own player in Career Mode and begin your path to greatness as a young prospect fresh out of high school. Choose a college, build teammate relationships, declare for the draft, and earn awards and accolades on your way to becoming the greatest player of all time. LEAD A DYNASTY Become the manager of a struggling team and turn them into contenders in Franchise Mode. Scout for college prospects, make draft selections, develop your rookies into stars, sign free agents, trade away disgruntled players, and hang as many championship banners as possible. BE THE COMMISSIONER Take full control of the league from player trades to expansion teams in Commissioner Mode. Enable or disable advanced settings such as CPU roster changes and injuries, choose award winners, and watch your league evolve over an endless amount of seasons. FULL CUSTOMIZATION Customize every aspect of both college and pro leagues from team names, uniform colors, court designs, rosters, coaches, and awards. Import or share your custom leagues with the Hoop Land community and load them into any season mode for infinite replay-ability. *Hoop Land offers unlimited Franchise Mode gameplay with no ads or micro-transactions. Premium Edition unlocks all other modes and features.

As a super fan of HLT, the wait for HL seemed like forever but was well worth it. The attention and effort paid to the minutia of little physics details makes for a game that surpasses what one would reasonably expect for an 8-bit basketball game. Having read other reviews, I must say that I’ve been fortunate enough to not encounter any of the bugs others claim to experience. There are some aspects of the franchise mode that are still missing, but I’m either aware or just placing my well deserved faith in Koality’s further development of the game to add them down the line. We know trades will be added soon, which is pretty much requisite for a full fledged league mode. Absolutely NEED and hope for the addition of a simple HOF line in HLT if not something statistically more elaborate. A big specific for me with switching my legacy league over to HL would be the transfer and inclusion of our HOF from HL, which would include individual accomplishments already on the resume of current and soon to be retiring players. For example, I have a player from my legacy league soon to retire, but on the cusp of setting a new record with his 7th championship. I really hope those sorts of statistical details can be incorporated and not lost. My only complaint really, would be that the CPU offense is very basic quite often with little to no ball movement and no attempt to make obvious passes to open teammates. Otherwise… excellent so far and can’t wait for more!

I love this game very much but honestly I thought it could be way more interesting like for every 5 star player they could have a nickname and also to make it more fascinating I would add a Olympic series for the HL league after the finals. Then I thought that the latest update was amazing with the three point contest but I thought you should add a dunk contest including 3 more dunk styles like the tomahawk and more. Also I thought that the person who say like Lebron from three should say that and more sentence. Overall the game is entertaining so keep it up. Also you should add a park and make it harder to get on fire like five shots in a row. Also make a goat mode after you score 50 points. Also can you add a park. Maybe could you make networths to see how much you have in career. Also allow you to buy like cars and houses and others in career. Another feature I think should be added is that you can have your own HL2k25 place to play and you can play the game actually. Also I would love it if we had a high school league also so we have more time to progress.

Hello I would like to share updates that would make this game more better the 1st is the crowd in the game all of the people in the crowd have the same hair style for the ladies and the boys and also they are all sitting in the same position like nothing has happened in the past game so what you might need to do is maybe put more movement into the crowd so we players can at least play it more realistically like the people should be walking to there seats and people recording and standing up and cheering because right now the people in the crowd is just sitting there in one position. Another update that I would like to be done is how in the world does the players get to the away game? Like yea your probably like “it’s a simulated game” but you should add like a feature of the players on the plane getting to the away game destination and in the fashion tunnel where they get to walk and show the players getting ready in the locker rooms and stuff. Another update that should be done is the players celebrations also when a player hits a game winner in a game the players just put there hands up and down that’s not showing enough gratitude of winning the game the players should be running to the player who shot the game winner instead of them putting there hands up that’s all I have to say. I really love this game please make these your updates thank you.

The game is literally the best basketball mobile game I ever played in my entire life only reason why those three stars aren’t five, due to the fact y’all just release the greatest beta updated I been waiting for every since y’all let it be known it was coming with the next update. That’s the mycareer update I won’t lie I had zero expectations going into the mycareer game mode due to it being an mobile game didn’t expect anything good or exciting was worth while regarding it. Once I played and seen we can play in high school, which I am slightly disappointed we only get to play one high school game I understand to speed the process up to get drafted especially since y’all allow us to play a full college season not sure if it’s multiple but I’ll love to have the option to have more high school game. Currently their a glitch going on maybe it just for me but I try every method I can think of to fix it nothing works, I even started over twice and still ran into the same issue but as soon as I get to my first college game and we get an dead ball the ref glitch’s and never inbound the game and their nothing I can do about but sim the game. Even sim the game doesn’t work cause the following game I play nothing else works and it’s extremely frustrating and I would love for it to be fix immediately cause I invested money in y’all game and I wanna play badly!
