I can imagine it being on one of those old handheld devices (like Nu Pogodi was) with fixed angles. The difficulty progress was great. Sometimes I missed that I can't jump though."},{"author_name":"panurge","author_uid":"21166","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 8:32pm","epoch":1429734420,"text":"Can I kick it? Yes I can! This was a lot of fun. Love the old school feel and the music sits well with the action. The kicking mechanic is simple but really satisfying and once I worked out how to head the ball I became pretty skilled at it. Nice work!"},{"author_name":"Diventurer","author_uid":"7567","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 8:38pm","epoch":1429734780,"text":"It was a very basic game, but I legitimately had fun. :D\r<br\/>I thought the falling blue things were some kind of powerup, so I found out the hard way it was a bad thing. :p"},{"author_name":"OberynMartell","author_uid":"30386","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 9:51pm","epoch":1429739160,"text":"Really fun!

I honestly did not expect it to control well, but it really did. The soccer ball went where I wanted to, but with enough of an arc that you had to think around it.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The baddies were annoying, once the birds and policemen started appearing. If you keep working on this, I DEMAND that you add a jump button. Just enough to get out of being cornered by a policeman when you don't have the soccer ball.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, being stunned while hit was really frustrating. The main difference between your game and others is that you can get hit when you're stunned! Mercy invincibility would've gone a long way in the anti-frustration factor."},{"author_name":"PlasmaErnst","author_uid":"52774","time":"Apr 29, 2015 @ 7:50pm","epoch":1430336700,"text":"Ha, fun game.
