Eastside Hockey Manager: Early Access - Now Available

Post by archibalduk »

Here's the download link: http://store.steampowered.com/app/301120/

The game is on sale for only £9.99 ($14.99 US / €12.99). And there's a time-limited 20% discount if you own Football Manager 15 on Steam. Hopefully as many people as possible will go out and buy the game. If the price isn't enough motivation, maybe this quote is:
5. Subject to the success of the new game, is there a chance that the EHM series may return for good? Is there anything the EHM community can do to increase the game's chances of success?

We’d love that to be the case and is the reason that we’re doing this when we feel we’ve got the best chance. As for the community? Spread the word. The more people who join in with Early Access, the more chance there is to bring it back as a full series.

The price is insanely cheap. If you've ever played and enjoyed any version of EHM I can't see any excuse not to buy it now. I see so many far less polished Early Access games sell on Steam for close to twice that much. 8-)

I'm seriously geeking out here.

I have to admit, I love the return of the old title; it's clean, simple, and original. And better yet, it means they're not spending oodles of money on some names and logos.

I was on HF Boards, and saw the title under Fantasy Hockey Talk and immediately came back here to make sure I wasn't seeing things. Likely buying it when I get home from work. :-)

Yep, why bother if the community will serve us? Just copied my graphics from NHL 2007 and downloaded the latest roster here from TBL:
