The thing is, I can talk about it here as much as I like, but all that really matters in the end is whether the game is fun. And, it is a bit, now. I am a critical judge and I am still working on it, but I think the basis that I am looking for is there.
I am full of ideas of things to add, but I will do none of those, because if I do the game will never come out! So here’s a screenshot again. Remember these are placeholder graphics, it will get better!! 🙂
Been following your blog for a few months as I remember the Football Manager series with great fondness from my childhood. As an IPhone gamer I came across a football game that might be of interest, New Star Soccer. The concept has been built on another classic C64 game that took hours from life, Footballer of the Year. There are no flashy graphics on show but boy, it’s damned addictive. I’m sure if your new game stays true to the addictive nature of your original series then it will be a huge success.
Thanks! And yes New Star soccer is a good game. I believe it took about 10 years to evolve into its current overnight success!
