Neat perspective. Had fun playing for a minute (I think I got to around 130 yds? what kind of football field is this!?) but it does get a little tedious. I think if the difficulty ramped up a little quicker I'd have played a bit longer. Well done!

good idea for the screen . Fit well with the theme

mincemeat 2014-12-08 03:34

148 yards.

Nice! I like the screen scrolling effect. Got to 100 yards, but sometimes it's hard to tell whether a defender will hit you or not.

A very interesting game! Not what I expected at all, and the style was pretty reminiscent to what the theme made me think of, game-wise. Good job!

Not being American I don't quite understand, but looks like a cool idea to a runner game, need to see all the graphics at a distance to qualify for 'WHOLE' game in one screen.. but close.

Went boring a bit to fast. The music was a bit to short.

jepster 2014-12-08 08:52

139 yards! Not bad for a european, huh?

I think that with some more variation, e.g. different players, other movement patterns, and a way to tackle, the game would be fun for more than just a minute.

And, as madlee says, neat perspective. I'm a sucker for 2D characters in 3D space.

benmcnelly 2014-12-08 08:52

Theme is spot on, graphics are fun, never ending football field and players, check.. whats not to love!

fonserbc 2014-12-08 10:24

Cool and well done!
It is fun.

The mixture between 3D and 2D works here, except maybe for the title font, but that could be fixed :)

groydis 2014-12-08 11:31

Excellent idea and well executed. Great Job

nuclearnapalm 2014-12-08 12:01

Good idea of perspective and pretty fun.

Cool camera angle, I stopped at 100 yards because I thought I might have won. Woulda been cool to hear a voice yelling at all those awesome plays I was making (jukes).

Fun Jersey number too.

Interesting use of the theme - I wouldn't have thought that an infinite runner would be possible ;)

There's a bit of a lack of variety though: once you've dodged a few defenders you've kind of seen the whole game :S

rjhelms 2014-12-10 00:20

I used to play a "racing" game that had a similar sort of style on the TRS-80. Cool to see something like that fit into this theme. Nice sprite work, too.

croze 2014-12-10 03:32

Really cool and addictive, seems like a lot of flash games I see and you did it in only 48 hours! Maybe add some variety to the game?

paperscraps 2014-12-10 11:02

The 69 on the jerseys made me laugh.

mrexcessive 2014-12-10 13:42

Hi there. Like the rolling world/ground approach. Got 61yds first try. Like the music and crowd sounds too. Game maybe needs a bit more challenge. Good job!

sushin 2014-12-10 23:17

It fits really well with the theme congratulations :). Why all the enemies have 69 on their T-shirts XD?

rottenmage 2014-12-11 09:59

Good effort. The game needs a little more variation to keep it interesting, though. It's also hard to judge the distance between the characters.

codecranker 2014-12-12 17:22

149 yards.

darkengineer 2014-12-12 18:13

Well done game

bsoddevguild 2014-12-12 18:57

Really fun game!

flwns 2014-12-12 19:00

Music seemed like it should be sad music for when you get tackled, maybe something more triumphant for when you're actually running. I like the Moosen.

harsayhd 2014-12-12 19:02

I must admit, it fits the theme.

csanyk 2014-12-13 04:39

This is about as good as Flappy Bird, if it were a football-themed FPS. :)

pvtroswold 2014-12-13 05:32

I like the 3D effect!

chuigum 2014-12-14 01:13

Nice graphics, good job!

billrizer 2014-12-14 15:30

Nice - would love to see a little more variety :)

pjimmy 2014-12-14 15:40

the visuals are very nice, gameplay is simple yet fun, cool game, well done
