Field position is everything.

Ball Swap is a new ability allowing Gamebreakers to swap places with the ball. Use it to move a great distance and position the ball near your team!

Nothing sums up the excitement of football quite like the Hail Mary pass. The quarterback takes the snap, winds up their arm, and launches a rocket down the field. What happens next is up to fate...

Wishlist Fantasy Football Tactics and play the demo here!

Hail Mary is the ultimate risk/reward play. The receiver has a 50% chance of instantly being walloped and super fumbling the ball! Luckily I kept Rewind enabled so I could try again :)

Wrote my first Renderer Feature for URP to create some heat distortion for the new lava playfield. Also getting more familiar with Shader Graph in the process. Brick by brick... it's starting to make sense!

Working on a new Caster ability called Bolt! It is a ranged magic attack that is guaranteed to force a fumble, but you have to be kind of far away to use it.

The demo for my turn-based tactical fantasy football game is OUT NOW!

You can knock out the ball carrier to force a SUPER FUMBLE, leaving it free to recover and toss to your goal.

Here's a cool sequence where I was able to flip the field and score in a single run of turns. Launching the demo has given me some space to actually just play the game and enjoy it :)

Fantasy Football Tactics is a turn based tactics RPG where victory comes from scoring goals, not slaying enemies.

The Striker's Stiff Arm ability pushes back an opponent in both space and time... and off the map!

Demo in 7 days!

I've been working through a few more feature requests for FFT before the demo launches (8 days)!

Now you can see the pass range of the ball carrier making it easier to line up passes! We also have name tags :D

Nearly every early FFT play tester wanted Strikers to be able to Stiff Arm opponents off the map. Ask and you shall receive! So without further ado...

The Queen has entered the chat!

First teased in the FFT playtest, Queen Versephone is making her debut in the upcoming demo (in 21 days)! With loads of abilities and high stat growth, she is a fierce competitor.

Fumbles land next to the ball carrier, but when health is low, it becomes a SUPER FUMBLE flying toward your goal! 🌈🏈
