Hi all,

Long-time lurker of football gaming communities, first-time poster here. I'm Giovanni, one of the two developers of Global Football, and I'd rather be upfront: this is my own game, I'm here for honest feedback from people who actually care about football games, not to spam a link and disappear.

What it is
An online football game where every outfield player on the pitch is a real person. You don't control a team, you control one athlete – think Pro Clubs / the old NetSoccer and World of Soccer, but built from scratch as its own game. Matches are 5v5 with AI goalkeepers.

It is not trying to be a PES or FC-style simulation. It's closer to a fast small-sided game where positioning, passing lanes and calling for the ball decide matches, because nobody can do it alone.

What's in it right now
  • 5v5 online, one human per player, AI keepers
  • Power-bar shooting and passing, high and low shots, driven passes, slide tackles
  • Ranked mode with MMR – the queue closes 5v5, 4v4 or 3v3 depending on how many people are searching, so matches actually start
  • Training rooms where bots fill the empty slots (players can vote them out)
  • Teams/clubs, friends, text and voice chat
  • Cross-play between PC (Steam), Android and iOS
  • Servers in South America, Europe and North America
  • Free to play, cosmetics only – no pay-to-win, no stats for sale

Where it's at, honestly
It left Early Access a few days ago. The community is small – most players are in Brazil, and European evenings are still quiet, which is exactly why I'm posting here. If a few of you jump in at the same time you'll get a proper match; alone at an odd hour you'll mostly meet bots.

What I'd love to hear from you
  • How do passing and shooting feel compared to what you expect from a football game?
  • Is the first 10 minutes (tutorial → first match) clear, or did you get lost?
  • What would make you come back for a second session?
Blunt is fine. We're two people and we ship fixes fast – several of last week's changes came straight from player feedback.

Discord (we're in there every day): https://discord.com/invite/qxEMwkEfDm

If enough people here are interested I'm happy to set up an Evo-Web evening on the EU server so you can play together instead of against bots. Just say so in the thread.

Thanks for reading,
Giovanni
 
I like the idea, I used to play Soccracy and a bit of TPM so that's reminding me that.

Few things I would consider
-I couldn't find a way how to set up lobby/game just for myself to train..just give me ball and optionally a gk or one bot to practice movement, passes, shoots etc.
-even trough I selected English it is full of Spanish words
-I didn't try it on computer, just an Android version. UI for mobile seems very small and sometimes it just does not work (example of registration is in attachment, you are just lost)

Good luck! 💪
