1/ How did Awesome Soccer come about?  Did you just wake up one day and think “I want to code an old-school footie game”, or was there more to it than that?
Well, it boils down to me having two passions in life – Football and Computers!  But ok, perhaps there’s a little more to it than that… :-)

Awesome Soccer reviewed at OutOfEight PC Game Reviews

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

Awesome Soccer has been reviewed at OutOfEight PC Game Reviews (where, unsurprisingly, the maximum score awarded is 8).  We scored a slightly dissapointing 5/8, with the reviewer citing the control system’s simplicity as an area for improvement.  Reading between the lines, the cross/lob function kept accidentally being pressed to his chagrin.  Here’s the summary:

The Good: Simple controls make it easy to bend shots, many teams with real players, custom tournaments, formation and team editors

The Not So Good: Terribly imprecise one-button controls are too simplistic
