A little behind the scenes on this Sunday morning! ⚽️ ☕️

We are developing some awesome features. I can’t wait to share more with all of you and truly thank you for your support!

Play Strikers has been expanded to 6 nations, 16 leagues, 316 clubs, 2,200 staff members, and 8,000 unique players.

I've also added logos for the Arcadia Premier League clubs.

@charlespaimba @PlayGOALS @andreas Drawing inspiration from a few games but ultimately, picking what I like and trying to make a complete experience for the player

[Josh @PureContender]

I am three hours into playing @PlayGOALS for the first time and have hit Gold III.

I have no idea what I'm doing outside playing matches.

I'll give @andreas and the team a 6 out of 10. I enjoy the quick gameplay and high scoring affairs. The random Unreal Engine "T-poses" crack me up though.

[Josh @PureContender]

It’s ok. I enjoyed the pace of the matches but defending needs a lot of work.

I’m also past the stage in life where I get hooked on these “Ultimate Team” type games. I’d like to see greater customization options for your team and players to try to get users more attached to their squad.

[Josh @PureContender]

I took a break from game dev this weekend to check out some games I haven't played. Up first, was @PlayGOALS

We have reached Elite 3 in the 'Knockout' game mode with only 6 hours logged!

Booting up @PlayGOALS for the first time. Let's see what this game is about...

@walliks @PlayGOALS Yeah, defending is odd

@charlespaimba It’s being worked on! I’ll share the link once it’s public.

I've made a small enhancement to the player models in Play Strikers.

The first image is the original, and the second image is the new design:

- Made the player stand taller
- Broadened shoulders
- Reduced fat around the belly, hips, and legs

🎉We have officially surpassed $500 raised on Kickstarter!

Thank you to everyone who has supported us so far and believes in our mission that everyone deserves to play football.

To celebrate this milestone, we are introducing a brand-new reward tier for $10:

This reward will add your first and last name to a fictional player in the game!

This is our way of letting early supporters leave their mark on the game we are building together. Your player may appear alongside non-league clubs and the biggest superstars as our game grows.

Let's keep the momentum going, and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! ⚽️
