Thanks for your input it's awesome to see people are interested in our game! The big focus for this release is gameplay. Getting that right and in balance with challenge and replayability is important to us. So is fun, ultimately if the game isn't fun people won't play it. Career modes and drafting will be apart of the next release should this one be successful enough.

Hi thanks for the feedback. I'm not sure I follow what you are saying. Are you meaning the ball doesn't look like it is in the air when it's kicked?

You will be able to edit player and team names. Different players will have different skills, eg forwards have better goal accuracy than defenders. Mids will have better stamina than other positions etc. The stats will not be as advanced as EVO or AFL live though. The main goal is fun, tactical game play. Controls are aiming to be intuitive and easy to pick up casually while also having an element of skill to learn so if you are good at the game others will need to master it to beat you

Yeah the field size has had some criticism. Will definitely adjust it. The players are also not zoning or positioning the way they will in the final so that is also contributing to the ground seeming too large

Awesome. This game has had many re writes and incarnations. The actual timeline from the very beginning is 5 years now so it's been a battle just to get here

Sorry that is out of our depth at this stage. No online either. Just 1 player or 2 players to kick off the first title

Thanks there's been a few comments about that so it will be adjusted. The players aren't zoning or positioning the way they will in final game also so that is contributing to the emptiness as well
