One of the things I discussed at Games Britannia, is you are not going to be wowed by the graphics, and the screenshots themselves are even more limited. This is no great concern to me. There was nothing spectacular about the look of the stick men in Spectrum Football Manager. However, what they did was clever, and the action had meaning in the game.
These 2 elements, the action having intelligence, and it having meaning and purpose in the game, -are important to me, and I take care and time to get that right.
In many ways, I am hungry to get this game on the market, but there is a standard it has to reach, a standard I set myself. Until it reaches that standard I won’t release it.
On the other hand it is worth mentioning it is not far off now.
‘Game intelligence’ and ‘meaning / a purpose’ – makes a game fun to play and addictive. I still love playing the original version more than other versions as graphics and over – complication spoil things for me. Load it up and off you go – it works for me.
