Hello! So this is the third time I'm posting my game here, it's been fun to go back and see where it began to now. I've spent just under 6 months doing some polishing and basically getting the game looking and feeling nicer to play. I want to spend the next couple of weeks putting in mauls/drop goals and infringements/rules. Also fixing up some of the defensive lines that are just mirroring the attacking lines still.

Hope you enjoy seeing the progress and I'd love to hear any feedback you guys have, good or bad. It helped a ton last time I posted here!

Any plans for mobile? I don’t know how your controls work or if they’d be compatible, but this reminds me of RetroGoal and RetroBowl (though this looks more interesting to be fair)

Will wishlist though!

I would love for a mobile release, but I’d like to complete for windows before tackling any further platforms. It’s on the cards for sure though

Im not sure what engine you are using, but if you want to make it play on Linux (I would love this on a Steam Deck), feel free to DM me. It’s been a couple years since I worked on games, but Linux is my wheelhouse and I’d be more than happy to test/make minor bug fixes in my free time.

Also I am talking about validating Proton, not a native build as that is much more work.
