Ever wonder how your team looks in a proper team photo? Well look no further! We now have a fun way to look at any team in a group picture with their head coach, offensive coordinator, and defensive coordinator at their sides.
There's also a time delay where the buttons on the bottom won't appear for a few seconds to give you time to take a screenshot to share with your friends! You can show off your team creations in one easy step now. How cool is that?
This update also includes the ability to mod (externally) the fields to your liking. Our community found a way to modify fields and we wanted to grant them more power to make some beautifully looking fields to share with the community. We can't wait to see what they come up with!
Watch this tutorial video on how to mod fields if you're interested in this new feature!

Are you tired of playing night games in the dark where you can't see much of the field? Well fear not! We've totally revamped the night lighting engine to showcase our game during night games!
We've also updated the season schedule to include Thursday, Sunday, and Monday night games automatically throughout the season. The first game of each week will be treated as the Thursday night game and the last two games will be Sunday and Monday night games.

We called it the "Tune Up" patch because we've been listening to the fans and making improvements to the game as needed. We also added some "Quality of Life" things to make your experience more enjoyable.
This isn't a huge patch, but there are some things we're happy to include with this update. One of them is the way we now handle the display window. So you can adjust your window size up to 1920 x 1080 and it will center automatically to your display. Now you can click any other outside application without losing focus, while also enjoying your game in full screen essentially.
This is great for folks just watching games and multi-tasking on another screen at the same time. We also removed the game's window border and allowed "dragging" of the window by holding the mouse left button as you normally do for other applications.
📢Pro tip: Page up/down buttons will cycle through window sizes without needing to go to the DISPLAY menu.
There are also several fixes and updates to the game you'll want to read up on which improve the stability and playability of the game. These came from feedback from our fans and us observing streams where we notice people struggling or running into issues while playing the game. We hope you like it!
💰 Today is the last day before the Halloween Sale ends, so be sure to tell your friends today!

Have you ever wanted to simply put down the gamepad and just play from the sidelines? Well... now you can with our all new Coach Mode! We've taken player control out of the equation and put the playbook in your hands!
Checkout this video as we showcase the new mode and also talk about some upcoming studio news!
Coach mode is a new setting you can toggle ON or OFF before a match begins. This new mode is available across all of our game modes and we've been having a fun time playing as the coach. We think it's really cool to manage your team and call plays to see if they can execute plays how you envisioned them inside the mind of a coach.
The setting can be found in the Settings > Gameplay menu and also on the Team Select screen by clicking the right trigger to show settings.
⚠️Please keep in mind when playing this mode you can only control up to 2 teams at a time. It doesn't work with multiple controllers per team, as only 1 player can call plays thus making additional controllers irrelevant.
Again, please continue to report any bugs on our Discord channel if you want to help! Thank you for your support, and for playing Legend Bowl!!
