Sports Story<\/a> wasn’t in the best state at launch, but fortunately, a few updates have been released since then. We’re now up to Version 1.0.4 and while it includes the usual fixes and improvements, it’s also got one other interesting change in it.<\/p>\n

Access to the “secret dev room’ has now been blocked. If you haven’t already seen it<\/strong><\/a>, it’s a section of the game where you go into a hidden area and can talk to the “developers of the video game” about the development environment. Here are the full patch notes for Sports Story Version 1.0.4:<\/p>\n

      Sports Story got a surprise release last December, and while we didn’t mind it, it wasn’t quite “up to par” after such a long wait. Here’s a brief snippet of our review:<\/p>\n

      \n

      “If you loved the original, you’ll likely find Sports Story to be a fun-enough follow-up, but there\u2019s no denying that it feels like quite a letdown after years of waiting. Assuming Sidebar can sort out the worst of the technical issues, we\u2019d give Sports Story a light recommendation to anyone looking for a quirky take on a sports RPG, but this one doesn\u2019t deserve a spot at the top of your list.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
