When I saw this, all I thought about was Top Gear's car football Also, since it's Euro 2012, why call soccer?!? It's football...
We're a UK developer, so we were thinking about Top Gear Car Football as well. That was a great episode . I'd love to do that! The reason the names Soccer is to be international. We have big plans for Soccer Rally, so it makes sense for the future. Also the name rolls off the tongue better and visually looks better. We had a big discussion about the name actually. I wanted Football Rally, but Soccer does make more sense. -Jon
Okay I can see that. Although having an international name would be better to have football, but since US app store has probably the biggest markets and soccer as a name for an iOS game does sound better, I guess I'll just relate to that. Whent thinking about it now, most of the App Store's football games are named soccer... I still prefer football. Cause that's the real name.
Looks good I think it looks great, will definitely give it a go. What game modes does it contain? I'm assuming the Euro 2012 schedule? Does the AI improve as you get further? Good luck with the launch. Will post a mini review next week when I've played it.
Whoa this is amazing . How did you get the Euro 2012 license? It's cool to see that small companies can get the license as well .
Brilliant idea! Do you have also Champions League license? Would be great to play the clubs too + wi-fi multiplayer!
Yeah since the dev said they have future plans, I think it'd be great to have episodic updates for like Champions league etc. Also Olympics are this year too with football in it too!
It contains the Euro Tournament, Quick match and same screen multiplayer on both iPad and iPhone. The AI skill levels have been based off the current bookies odds on the tournament. So there is different skill levels set for each team. Once you get through the Group stages the level of difficulty is increased all the way to the final. The way the tournament is worked out you tend to always get one of the top teams in the final, making it a real challenge. So yeah the AI does improve the further you get .
We don't have a license for The Champions League with all the teams. But we are going to do more global teams. We also plan to create a League mode where you play a season, as well as a full World Cup. We want to work towards Wifi and Online Multiplayer. This will be further down the line though, as it's quite a lot of work. We have a lot of ideas for Multiplayer but we really can't talk about them just yet . Thanks for all the positive comments! -Jon
