This was a dumb idea. But as it is my habit for doing weird and/or esoteric stuff, the question started off innocently enough. "What if there was a game where you play in a beer league, that is sponsored by actual beer companies? I mean... Breweries used to have teams back in the day... granted then so did factories, offices and banks." "Except instead of real company teams, you make it play like a typical beer league." "Yeah this is already sounding silly." "No, it's sounding funny and awesome and you have to do it." "I *have* to eh? Ah what the hell..." So with that mindset, we dive into: The backstory on this one was that, while developing IIHF Hockey [1991] for the Genesis, a small section of Team 1920 was unwinding with a few brews after hours and thought it would be funny to use the game engine to make a beer league game. This breakaway group called themselves the "Twist Cap Division" and did the work in their free time, which they had some of since crunching wasn't as prevalent back in those days. They took 22 of their favourite beers and named teams after them, subbing them in for the international teams. Bottle caps made for great logo references and a Beer League Hockey logo displaced the EA Hockey League logo because never mind them. The idea was that these guys would never play in a big arena, so the smaller community centre look was used for the pre-game team preview screen. Playoffs were divided up and Easter eggs were thrown around willy-nilly. Just assume that everything is an Easter egg. Such as the black and white Elsinore brewery teams. If you've seen Strange Brew, you know exactly how well these guys play hockey. The kids today might be tempted to call this team the "Dark Souls of Hockey", but they aren't *that* bad. Broadcast sponsorship was "provided" by local channel C-BRU - Channel 13. Fittingly, the beer leaguers are playing for glory and a golden trophy. Based on a real trophy, which is just a regular keg painted glorious metallic yellow. The actual golden trophy was the stuff inside it. This was a dumb idea. Please enjoy responsibly. UPDATE: Version 1.1 features corrected the bench players, so they wear the same uniforms as the guys on the ice.

For best results, set your device to 60hz NTSC.

Hello there! I haven't done much in quite awhile and finally get out of retirement with this opportunity. This is a mod of seamor's excellent rom for 3 on 3 hockey based on the brand new league 3vs3 '3ice. For more information about this league please refer to this link:https://www.3ice.com/ and https://www.3ice.com/rules This league is filled with players who focus on speed and agility. The coaches are almost all hall of famers (Carbonneau, Trottier, Mullen, Fuhr etc etc) Each team has a roster of 6 players and 1 goalie. What I have done are the splash screens and the roster. What I haven't done is change the team logos which might be done in a future version if I find time. Or if anybody wants to pick up the ball, do it and post the results here, go for it!!! but at least we all have a basic rom for this league which could be promising and a blueprint for settling the rules and the sport of 3vs3 hockey, maybe as a future olympic or global sports like they did for 3vs3 basketball and rugby sevens. This might become fun to watch. Enjoy!!! NOTE: I am uploading version 2. It has updated jerseys. the first version has jerseys themed on the coaches' t shirts on the 3ice website. The roster seems, as I looked in the show tonight, as it is gonna be quite volatile. Probably I will update it in a later version. 3ice 22 v2.bin 3ice 22.bin
