Super Arcade Football

BUYER BEWARE - the game currently for sale is NOT THE SAME GAME that all the positive reviews refer to. I bought this game on 6-AUG-2020 and immediately feel in love with it. It really felt like playing the game, as opposed to the bloated AAA franchises, which try to mimic the experience of watching it on TV. Zippy and loads of fun. Then, 6 days later on 12-AUG, they posted an "update." This update - or theft, if we're calling it what it is - involved deleting my new game from my library, and replacing it with a totally different game. All of the features - teams, tournaments, high-res graphics - all gone. It's been replaced by something that looks like it was written on a Commodore 64. What a joke. All I can figure is that they had some kind of copyright problem and got shut down, and needed to throw something together in its place, so they spent 24 hours throwing together some 8-bit code and some 4-bit graphics so that they could continue to collect our money despite stealing our ...

[b] NOTE:[/b] Due to Steam's review word count limit, I'm taking the suggestions out of this review. The full reviews including the suggestions will be available on my discussion page: [i] Pros + Cons + Suggestions (Continuously Edited)[/i] Thanks! I'm going to continually edit this review as I play more of Super Arcade Football. [b] EDIT 1: [/b] - [i] PRO:[/i] The game is super fun. It's fast, fluid, the controls feel amazing. The fast pace you feel when playing really makes it an addicting game. I love it so far. - [i] CON:[/i] When playing as defense, it feels a little hard to know which player the game is going to pick for you to play as. It switches up a lot and therefore kind of messes up the running. For me, this is the biggest issue. The game keeps changing the defensive player, making it very hard to play defense. It changes! And it's sad :( - [i] PRO:[/i] The graphics are really cool. The teams are well designed and everything just works. - [i] CON:[/i] While it may seem li...

[h1]Kicking off with style. [/h1] Super Arcade Football is, yep you guessed it, an arcade football game that has recently launched through Steam’s Early Access program. SAF’s style of football is fast-paced, foul-filled and frantic, making it incredibly exciting for those playing single-player or with friends with the game’s local-multiplayer. With Quick Matches, Preset Tournaments (The World Cup and The Euros) as well as Custom Tournaments, there’s already a fair bit of bang for your buck with more to come as the game continues through development. Please note: While I will mention what the devs plan to add several times in this review, my overall opinion, and therefore this review, is based entirely on what is currently in the game. The game’s graphics are simple but suit it well, it’s a bright and colourful game which goes well with the overall feel of the game as a casual arcade game. The UI simply consists of the score and time played of the match in the top left, i...

what the heck happened to this buatiful masterpiece. I Bought this game so long ago and supported by buying it because of how fun and clean it was , now coming back to it , its a brand new game that it ugly looking, pixelated and just wrong . its bricky and i would love the old version back for my game please. what the heck. I wouldnt recommende this now. bring it back to the way it was

You can play the actual game by enabling the game's beta, called 'legacy - the old 3D SAF' in the steam settings of the game. If you do just that after having bought the game, it's really an enjoyable soccer game for 1-4 players in local coop. Technically, you might also play online, but there isn't anyone out there playing. The game supports XInput controllers (Microsoft). My guess is, that there's some hidden reasoning behind the latest 'patch', probably some legal issues because of team licencing or idk. Make sure to enable the above-mentioned beta.

Huh? This is not at all the game I bought a few years ago. It was a "Tecmo" style arcade football game with arcade depth and fun movement and passing mechanics and a completely different art style. I downloaded the new version and tried to give it a chance, but....NO. I don't care about the graphics so much as *every* other dynamic is completely changed. Additionally, it's the most barebones "full release" I've seen in a long time; there's not even a display or audio settings option. I don't pretend to understand indie game development but this is NOT how to treat your original backers in Early Access.

I really liked this game a lot for a few hours in single player, but after a while it's become repetitive, even boring. I believe it has great potential to be enriched by adding some more parameters into the current recipe. As others mentioned as well, I waited a veeeery long time, hoping to play a multiplayer game. It would be nice to add a more responsive user interface for this waiting screen. I would like to see: - the number of players who are waiting just like me, - number of online games being played right now - the ability to add other players as friends, see if they are online and if they are online I would like to send them a match request. I can not recommend this game at the moment but I hope the devs will get this game to reflect its real potential. Then you will know the STRIKER I AM!

I've been into football games since Match Day and Football Manager on the BBC Micro. I've played a few since then: Kick Off, Player Manager, Sensible Soccer, Kick Off 2 and Goal! Although I never really got in to FIFA or Pro Evo. I was after a more old school footie kickabout game I could enjoy with my friends. So from the end my Amiga days until now there is a massive gap in my football games. I have never really found anything as good as Kick Off or Sensi. Then I heard about Super Arcade Football on Steam Greenlight. I liked this game when it was initially released on early access but it is the features the devs keep adding that make me like it more and more. I love the way the devs respond. They have a great sense of humour and fun. There were a few complaints the game was too fast so they added a "slower gameplay" mod but they also cheekily added a "faster gameplay" mod! The "sleepy keeper" mod is also great fun and allows for some hilarious score lines. After winning 30-14 in a ...

Not sure what happened. Played this game for a few years. Logged in and it's a completely different game. This is most certainly not the game I paid for. I can not recommend this game in its current iteration. I can't even distinguish the players for each other anymore due to the low bit graphics. What happened here ?

The game used to be good maybe even great. But the latest update completely changed the games design making it pixellated garbage Old rating would have been 7/10 New rating has to be 4/10
