Details
The full picture
Written from verified facts; labels mark how strong each statement's evidence is.
What the game is
Perimeter, Paint & Process is a basketball management simulation released October 9, 2026 in Early Access at $12.00.
The local council has a budget, a struggling neighbourhood and a basketball court that is technically a venue - outdoor, no walls, a roof over the playing surface.
You are a former player whose career ended before you were ready, and the roster waiting for you mostly showed up because someone said it was free.
Coaching and the engine
Build the roster, set tactics and develop players, then watch matches through a text simulation engine that shows you exactly why things happen.
The career mode is a story that starts at the bottom - a no-budget community programme on an outdoor court - and follows the arc from there.
The game teaches its own systems as you go, with nothing hidden behind a wiki.
Where it ends and who it is for
You start with eight players and a folding table, making notes on who might become something.
Players who become something are not always the ones who look the part on day one.
It suits management-sim players who want a narrative career rather than a spreadsheet alone (BOUNDED: official Steam description, checked 2026-10-13).
