This game certainly requires quick thinking to set up routes before the blue enemies start moving.

Good mechanic, I like being able to draw my player's routes, instead of just picking preset ones like in standard football games (ie. Madden)

If you pass the virus right after you hit, it doesn't take away a life and you can just continue right into the goal.

Really cool and fast-paced mechanic. Expanding this with more types of attackers and defenders could make this a great game. Good job!

Interesting mechanics, played this for a good while. Nice job

cool mechanics, need some quick thinking, especially since it's hard to tell how your setup is going to work out for you

Good game. Innovative and intuitive. Difficult, but rewarding when a level is complete. I just wish there was some way to skip levels you have already completed.

Really great entry. :) Seemed to ramp up in difficulty quickly, but was fun.

This was pretty cool. I wish it was a little bit more challenging though. I died once on the first level, but then I realized that I only really needed to use one blocker and run along the edge of the screen. That worked for every level, which was somewhat disappointing, because the mechanic is cool. Good job!

Very nice game, but some tutorial needed.

Pretty neat idea!

You need to think routines quickly, it's hard the first time... but anyway interesting mechanics! Congrats! :)

Very fun little game!
The difficulty curve is a little weird tho.
Some levels are too hard, some too easy, in no specific order (apparently).
Also, the lack of audio is kinda annoying.
Overall 4/5.

I like the mechanic. I might have liked it if you could plan your routes in timed phases - real time is kinda tricky, too much to do at once, but maybe that's part of the charm. I got to pass once and it was awesome, I did a victory dance.

This is one of the funnest entries by far!

somepx 2013-12-18 21:03

This is a wonderful game, really - in a quite unexpected way! Imagine a game like this w/ better graphics and touch controls. Good job!

Good game, pretty fun and nice and fast paced

kewry 2013-12-19 16:05

Nice game dude!

blazingfanfish 2013-12-19 21:23

The game is fun. You need to act fast on this game. Nice one:)

interesting strategy game. Would be neat take on football, with the draw route mechanic. Dont think i’m seen that before. Nice entry.
