From Press Release:
MicroProse’s Tiny Football will be released on Steam in Early Access on the 15th of November.
What is Tiny Football?
Tackle, Pass and Shoot your way to the back of the net.
On the Couch or Online. Settle old scores!
Tiny Football is a throwback to old top-down retro soccer games of the 90s. Master the art of passing and shooting, tackles, crosses, throw balls, overhead kicks, free kicks, and more. Compete with 64 national and club teams in a variety of tournaments. Multiplayer-focused (hotseat and future support for Steam Remote Play).
Rich gameplay and real challenge is achieved by sharing user control with AI assistance to produce passing and shooting based on individual player ability.
The randomness of passing and shooting, even when playing against AI, will still have an impact on player behavior and ‘fluke’ goals give added excitement.
Each squad member has their own skill levels and players can be pre-selected before a match and substituted during a match when they are tired.
In-match injuries will force substitutions. Sent off players and player suspensions will force players to shuffle team selection adding a managerial feel to tournaments.
Additional features include goal celebrations, player protests, extra time and penalties. Play with a friend (controller and keyboard) or the computer.
