Loved the game

Submitted

Love the presentation, the animations look good, the music as well, my team also thought about doing a ref simulator of some sorts haha, but ended up scrapping the idea

Submitted

Great take on the theme and great art as well. nice entry

Submitted

Awesome game! This is an amazing take on the theme. I love the look and sounds of the game. And the controls and interacting with the players felt very smooth and intuitive. I was laughing and having a blast the whole time I played. Great game and great job!

Submitted

Great idea! I really like the game, the art is very nice and the sounds are great. I could barely read the text though, it looks fine in your screenshots but in the game its all blurred! The referee shouldn't be able to constantly use his abilities, it could be cool if has a cool down or a suspicious bar that goes up. Other than that it's a fun game, well done!

Could you rate my game? I would really appreciate it, thanks!

Submitted

Love the art design and aesthetics, and having the reset function be diegetic feels really great.

Submitted

I love everything about this game, it's so much fun to just cause chaos in the middle of the match with zero consequences to your character. The aesthetics are fantastic, the animations are really nice and snappy and the programming is really impressive. The music is perfect for the game and the sounds fit perfectly. Also fits very well within the theme of the jam. Very enjoyable experience!

Submitted

Very creative idea and good execution, well done! One thing I kept trying was to score a goal by myself lol

Submitted

Echoing that the font was hard to read. Like the concept though, and really love the art style!

Submitted

I enjoyed a lot, very good game! The text was hard to read and the skills are not that useful, but very good game for a 48 hours jam!

Submitted

Very nice game! I liked it

Submitted

Fun Idea, and very pleasing graphics. I like the random IceCream truck in the corner. :)

Great Job and very creative.

Submitted

Love the game! Mechanics and everything is amazing

A good, stylistic idea, could do with being developed further

Outside of the font not scaling up properly, super impressive!

Cool idea and fun game, only problem is that the text was very hard to read. Good job!

Submitted

Neat game. Font is really hard to read. I wish there was a little more to the game mechanics, maybe a limit of how often you can use your abilities, or some new abilities to mix things up. Having some more ball control so you could guide it better would be nice too. The art is nice. Good job!

Submitted

As a football fan that gets annoyed at the refs. I liked this idea, very funny and had very nice art. Wish the font was more readable, I was able to read the text but some words were harder than others. Wish I could use the cards though.

Submitted

Fun game! The silly music and the art style is really fitting. The whistle is a bit overpowered in my opinion. The cover image gave me the impression that I would be able to use the red card, but didn’t see any options to do so.
