Backyard Gridiron Manager

by

A gridiron (American football) management game where you look of a bunch of stats and numbers and performance metrics for players, form a roster by balancing offense and defense stats and then watching your team play football against bot-controlled teams. You cheer when your team scores and you cry when they don't. 

Between games and seasons, you sift through key statistics. You look for the winners and weed out the under-performers. The bot teams are doing the same. Can you out-roster the competition and win season after season?

Features (existing and planned)

- choose your roster then watch the games play out. You don't control the players or anything at all. You set the roster then watch the bot vs bot action.

- 5 vs 5 format. All starters play offense and defense. Choose strong offense or strong defense or scout that star player that can do both!

- has a "backyard" look and feel. No fancy stadiums with roaring crowds. You won't get 53 players in this game. No overwhelming multi-million dollar franchise here.

- become attached to your players and watch them excel, or fail, on the field.

- track stats across games and seasons and use key metrics to decide when to cut that over-rated player.

- injuries and training events will keep you constantly pruning and reviewing your roster every week.

- a draft pool at the start of each season lets the weaker teams pick new players and balance each season.

- watch the players push each other around the field using a real 2d physics engine.

Stretch goals

- hot-seat with a friend and co-op your way through seasons. Can you out manage your friend?

- offline replay mode so a host can run tournaments and distribute replay files for later watching

- team editor for changing team colours and names - build a name for your backyard crew and start playing in school yards and local club grounds

Road map

- add passing plays, better AI, better graphics, animations, injuries, QOL improvements, economy, player, team and leage stats, team icons, team uniforms. everything!
