- The BCSN makes its return, go ahead and see what people in the media have to say, leave a reply.
- Your players can now win postseason awards: All-Region, Most Outstanding Player and Freshman of the Tournament, and you can win Coach of the Tournament. Awards also now lift morale and help you keep the guys who earned it.

- Players carry a unique number now.
- The team editor has been reworked to allow for conference renaming.

1.0.11 15 Aug 2026

- Improved practice UI, and the Auto Spend button now follows a priority.
- The Program tab is much improved. Facilities and coaches explain what they actually do.

1.0.10 4 Aug 2026
- The shot meter is reworked. Greens are perfect, and yellow is heavily buffed and tied more to player ratings.
- Signing Day. If a recruit is still on your board when the season ends, the window no longer closes behind your back. You get an alert, a screen with every kid still waiting, and one shot to make your offer.
- Recruiting tightens as the season ends. Fewer prospects stay available late, and every recruit reaches a real decision instead of quietly signing somewhere.

- UI fixes and misc bug fixes.
1.0.8 25 Jul 2026

- Assistant coaches and staff arrive, and a recruit may care how good your coaching staff is.
- Recruiting superlatives on player cards: State POY, All-State, All-Region, All-American, and the All-World team for international recruits.
- Offers now show what percentage a recruit likes your offer, plus how he evaluates your program.
- Fixed: Alaska did not exist on the map.
1.0.7 20 Jul 2026
- Your week is twenty hours and you decide where they go. Reaching out, scouting, flying a recruit in. Nothing is free, so nothing is automatic.
- The campus visit is real. Invite a recruit to a game, and what happens on that floor is what he remembers.
- One offer, one answer. Every recruit closes the same way, from a two-star to a five-star.
- The game starts you coaching. No forced tutorial before you can play.
1.0.5 13 Jul 2026

1.0 25 Jun 2026
- Bit College Basketball launches on the App Store. 364 teams, 32 conferences, and a dynasty to build.
Bit College Basketball is a retro pixel-art college hoops dynasty for iPhone, iPad and Android. Take over a program, recruit it, coach it, and build it into something that hangs banners, one possession at a time.
The on-court game is arcade-simple: time up your shot and let it rip. Play it possession by possession when you want the whole game, or drop in for only the clutch moments when you don't. The crowd lets you know exactly what it thinks either way, and the endgame plays like the tournament.
Off the court you run the entire program. Recruit high schoolers and work the transfer portal, and keep an eye on your own roster, because players can leave through it too. Keep the team happy and on the court. Manage an NIL fund where the donors have agendas, players want more than they're worth, and the money runs short at the worst possible time.
Pick any of 365 teams across 32 conferences, create your own coach, and run it for decades: recruit, graduate, rebuild, repeat. Pro adds the team editor, to rename and recolor any program and redesign the jerseys.
