Basically self explanatory, like the title says, it's 'BYOND Football'. I've been working on this project for about 2 weeks now on and off throughout my first year of college, and I've gotten a tad bit done so far, at least I think so. I guess my main point in this post is, I want to know if the community would actually be interested in playing such a game, so hopefully I wouldn't be wasting my time haha. But anyways, I have a video url link posted below, hopefully some constructive criticism, or maybe ideas that you would like to see yourself?



Note: I do not have a down system implemented yet, I was hoping to get a lot of core functions such as the AI, and respawning in the right places before I put the little things in place. Also the icons I have now are currently placeholders. I'm hoping once the game is playable someone will notice the potential and offer to pixel some art for it.. and yes, when I was on defense I got juked out..

Oh and thanks to Calus Corps for letting me use his blog to advertise this, I really appreciate it!
I automatically veto this.
Trying to get people to sit their ass at the computer "playing sports," even more?

I dunno, EA craps out new Maddens every year. They have to be making money on them or else they wouldn't keep making them.

I know, right?

Why play harvest moon when you can be a farmer? Why play naruto when you could be a ninja? Why play in a fantasy world when you live in an actual world? It's just ridiculous and unheard of!

EA craps out every sport every year.
Of course they're making money, it's 4P (Golf is actually attractive) and frequent.
I, also, know that there are people who sit thinking they're actually "playing" the sport in reality.
Looks good, Claus. Although I would prefer the game log displayed automatically, but thats just me.
@ Exploshun
Vocal_nebula is the developer, I've known him for years and offered him some blog space. :)

He can correct me if I am wrong, but he is simply displaying what he's accomplished thus far and giving his game some notice. I told earlier today that a HUD would look nice in the finished product.

Also Vocal_nebula, I am looking forward to this!
Lol well if you think about it, your literally going to be sitting and playing any video game, so why not make it a sports game? Would you prefer DBZ Supremacy?

And I'm the one making the game, but the comments are helpful, thank you :)
Calus beat me too it haha :D
Ahhh, my mistake I just noticed the "Calus CoRPS" at the top and assumed the post came from him. My apologies Vocal_nebula, the game looks great!
Haha don't worrry about it man, I'm just trying to advertise a bit of what I have to see if it's going to be accepted among the community, and calus aloud me to use his blog to do so.

All you needed to say was that, and you'd win.
Hope and Support goes to you.
Lol glad I could convert you and acquire your support :)
With tile-based movement it just seems boring. Have you considered using pixel movement?
I've considered it, just don't really understand it as much.
I think it'd be nice to see a sports game on Byond. It'd remind people that a lot of things can be done with Byond. This seems like it'd be neat to play, I'd be on my "To Play" list if you release it. (It'd probably be the only thing on my "To Play" list. xD)

EDIT: Though there are a few interesting games in development
I been contemplating a football game for BYOND myself. Of course I haven't done so, but not a bad idea really. Heck, there are all sorts of untried ideas for BYOND to try.
Everyone complains about the rips and the anime, and I noticed BYOND didn't have a football game, so I figured here's my shot.
Looks pretty neat. BYOND being full of nerds, there aren't many sports games around. Even though I don't personally play them either I would very much like to see people branching out into other genres. Good luck with the game!
