Rock-paper-scissors was an interesting choice for the main mechanic of this game. I'm curious how the enemy AI worked, since there's not a lot of "strategy" either player can use, but it seems to notice and counter when I repeat one option many times. Eventually I just replayed and picked randomly until I won. The UI was quite nice and I liked the updates on the game.
Thank you very much for playing the game, I am glad you like the game.
The simulation aspect of the football team is very nice and the characters have solid designs. I would personally make it so that every rock paper scissors throw advances the time by like 2 or 3 minutes instead of just 1. Also a feature that I would really enjoy is some banter between the characters at halftime depending on who is currently leading and also maybe the losing player getting an extra sacrifice at halftime.
Thank you for playing the game and your input. Your idea is very interesting and would certainly make the game better in the future
Who would have thought that witches can be football coaches. Really weird idea never seen it before, you just mashed 3 random things and the theme together to make this and it just works. I'm not a big fan of the rock, paper, scissors especially in this game it feels like there is to much rng in the gameplay. Despite that I really enjoyed it and would love to see a sequel with a different twist. Good job, keep it up!
Thank you for playing the game, if given more time, I would certainly prefer to have the game not be RNG based but a given the situation of project, I have to make it into RNG games. Thank you for your input and for your idea!
Very funny premise for a game, with some really cute art, too! Playing football using rock-paper-scissors is an interesting twist, and the "GOAL" yell made me laugh!
Thank you very much for playing, the concept is quite bizarre but I am very glad that you enjoy it!
I was very fascinated with the updates on the actual football game - I didn't expect that. A big downside is the UI though. Other than that you did well.
Thank you very much for playing, I certainly have to fix to UI to match the theme more. Nonetheless, thank you for the suggestion!
Very original game. The idea was well executed, although it took me some time to understand the gameplay (maybe that's on me). Some of the sound effects were cut off at the end. The character design looks great. Good job!
Thank you very much for playing, there are certainly some bugs that I have to fix. Anyway, hope you have fun!
I didn't find any major bugs, the game works just fine for me. I hope you get a good placement, your submission is really cool!
Wow! this idea is super interesting! the graphics were really cute and i liked the battle sequence. the title customisation was a super nice touch and the art was adorable! This system can be used for so many things, good luck on your future projects!
Thank you very much for playing the game! Thank you for the kind comment as well!
I really didn't see that coming! It was really original and fun to play! How did you even come up with this idea ?
The game overall just felt smooth, the UI simply feels great, really nice entry!
Thank you very much for playing the game. I heard about history of St.Mary's Stadium of Southampton FC being cursed that their team cannot win their first few game at the home ground at all to the point of hiring a pagan witch to lift the curse, which they managed to win in their next match after the purification process. I was quite inspired by theme "Sacrifice" that I use the idea to make this game. Anyway, that's for playing the game!
Fun game! I enjoyed the premise of using rock-paper-scissors to play a game like soccer. The idea of using a sacrifice for a guaranteed victory was nice too.
The only issue I encountered was that I could just keep clicking one of the options seemingly without a penalty. If you find a way to prevent players from doing that through some sort of other mechanic, that could add a little spice to the game.
Overall, great entry!
Thank you very much for playing the game. Thanks for the suggestion as well, I will probably be using it in my future games too.!
This is one of the most original games I've played! The concept is fantastic, mixing paper, rocks and scissors with football, and it's really fun! The art is also amazing, I loved the character designs! My only complaint would be that some sound effects feel a bit out of place. But overall, an amazing work!
Thank you very much for the comment, I would certainly use your suggestion for future works!
I like the rock, paper, scissors gameplay! And nice art. Good job!
Thank you very much for playing our game!
I like the story, and the way you have made use of the theme is pretty good
Thank you very much!
Nice twist on the theme. I feel like there was a bit too much text in the beginning.
Thank you for the your suggestion! Initially, I want to have a guide but due to time constraint, I can only put the guide in the text. I should put skip button too but I prepare button after completing the run first time already. But yes, I will use it to improve in my future works!
