Playtesters wanted: I am looking for anyone interested in helping with playtesting the Soccer Supremos game. Please message me directly if you are keen and I'll add your name to the waiting list.
At the moment it is very early days. So far I have pretty much bedded down the high level game design and have started work on the ‘match engine’.
The match engine is really the heart of the game, or rather it will be once I’ve finished with it.
Early next year I hope to be in a position to share the engine with you. It will come in the form of a website where you will be able to modify a large array of match information. For each team you’ll be able to select the players, modify they ratings and other attributes, the team’s formation, aggression, tactics, etc, etc. By completing the page the match will be played and the results will be presented.
I’ve already got most of this working, I just need to get this onto a webpage and there are some aspects of the engine I need to complete before sharing it with you to playtest and provide feedback. At that point, and with your feedback, I’ll continue to add more detail and options to the match engine, such as factoring in weather, the ref, subs, tactics, etc.
