Finally got a basic match sim to complete the core loop, please try it out and let me know what you think.
All ideas welcome.
It’s actually surprisingly pretty fun! I think it would benefit a lot from polish though, none of the mechanics “feel” good to try
also no clue whats happening in this image, i dont know if im winning or losing, i just get happy when i get money at the end lol
Fair enough, the face emoji is a close call, either a save or a dangerous play. I want to add micro cinematics for each so that you “watch” the match in less than 30 seconds.
Check out the new cinematics I added to explain what is going on. Let me know if there is anything I should add.
the cinematics look awesome! It looks really polished! however, there are a few things I think are still a bit confusing. For one, I couldnt tell from the beginning what color team I was on, so I was not sure whose players were scoring the goals in the cinematics until I looked at the text. I think the cinematic should also dissapear or fade to black after it has happened to avoid confusion. I think also for the
emoji close calls, there should also be an indicator that it was a close call, maybe like a picture of the goalkeeper grabbing the ball and preventing a goal could help. Also, I really like the new tutorial! it makes a lot of the gameplay really clear. The gameplay clarity seems almost ready, I think soon youll be able to start polishing a lot more!
oh and I just realized there are no cinematics for the other team
Yeah, I’m struggling a bit because if I create cinematics for all events it will become a bit too busy but then sometimes matches just show close calls and adversary actions and it’s boring.
I also want to add an initial phase where you actually choose your team’s colors and shield, that will make it all simpler to understand.
Again, thanks for your feedback. It helps a lot!
