This is a pretty fun, could use a little tinkering with the AI and overall physics to balance out the game, but it's enjoyable to play around with and it plays pretty smoothly. Good job!

I like the concept! It was really satisfying to get a nice hit on the ball. I just wish the pacing was a bit faster

Well done:
I liked the different Player types and levels (And paper headlines^^).

Thougt at the beginning Level that it is to easy but difficulty increased then.

Nice Game!

Nice clean graphics and smooth gameplay. But the controls where too slow and too fast at the same time. Hitting the right speed and direction was very tricky, but maybe that was the point.

I found this very addictive and fun, and played for far too long. A cool take on the mixing of genres. Would love to see this expanded with better AI and more powerups! Great entry, well done.

Man that was quite the fun game! U agree with some other commenters that the AI wasn't too smart and the pacing felt a tad too slow (with both aim + power for 3 characters one by one). Though, it was quite fun to coordinate things once I got the handle on it. Nicely done!

this is a super solid start to a project,. all the pieces work well together.

my one big gripe is the lack of flow to the game. i dislike the time it takes to aim all your guys. maybe a gamemode with auto aiming but controlling the power?

This is the first sports game I like and that is quite something! I love the execution, although there are few bugs to be fixed. First, it is possible to fire the ball out of the game and nothing happens (you have to wait till the game is over). Also when enemy scores, it quite often scores him two points instead of 1.

It's interesting the combination of soccer and the strategy you need to follow in order to make goals. Nice job!

Interesting game, but I think the AI was pretty easy and leaving a player behind to push/block them always worked (which detracted from the fun), it would be much better if you added a local multiplayer option. Also, the music does not fit the game in my opinion.

Solid entry otherwise.

Cool idea of a step-by step football.
It could be much more fun, but IMO too slow and not dynamic.
Great humor, though!

I like it! Interesting approach to controlling players. It sure takes time to input your commands, though.
Minor grump: I've thrown the ball out of the field and it never came back =)

Smooth, responsive and super fun! The game is also really funny, the sounds aren't tiresome and the graphics are clear. Super Soccer was really enjoyable to play.

Fantastic game. I played this one for quite a while!

I think it would be cool to have more advanced AI. Right now, they all clump up and go for the ball, which is a bit annoying.

I was impressed with how you managed to get different levels in, and enjoyed how there were things like American Football... that still used nets. I didn't get very far, but I imagined the sports themselves becoming more and more ridiculous too. Nice job!

I really enjoy the feel and sound of hitting the ball! There's something satisfying about bodyslamming the ball around the field.

The menu and start of each game with the newspaper makes the game feel quite polished as well. [Nest](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/motherducker) time you could increase the pace a bit, which is really my only critique.

Fun game. I like the variation in levels and I appreciate that there's different music for each one.
