Nice game! I really like it so far. The writing is excellent and there seems to be a branching narrative which is great. I like the characters too, though that guy is a dick for not letting me take the penalty for my hattrick haha
If I had to make one criticism, I do feel there could be more differentiation in the in match actions. Doesn't make sense to be able to bicycle kick every ball, and the goal celebrations etc get repetitive
Thanks, glad you're enjoying it chief. I agree about the celebrations, that's something I'll improve going forward.
On the match actions though, there's actually a good amount of variety already. Bicycle kicks are just one option among several (volleys, headers, other types of shots, dribbling past defenders or the keeper for a tap-in, layoffs to teammates, different shot types and feet, etc). I designed it with a "yes, and" mindset so if a player wants to bicycle kick every chance, they can, but it's never the only option on the table. If there's a specific moment where it felt like bicycle kick was the only real choice, let me know and I'll take a look. but appreciate your comment king 👑🤝
