Game Design Revisited
It's been a week since we announced the decision to bring Soccer Supremos back to life. Admittedly it wont be for a couple of years, but non the less we have had an amazing response from ex-managers!
We've welcoming and encouraging all ex-managers to get involved in the re-design of Soccer Supremos. The plan is to button down the game design and engine before the end of 2012. By doing this we'll be able to hit the ground running as soon as develop starts.
Therefore, if you want to be involved, please do so, comment on this blog, contact me (sean@gadgames.com) and most importantly start spreading the word. We need to get as many 'potential managers' onboard now and to partake in ensuring the new Soccer Supremos is exactly what everyone wants.
We have already a number of cool ideas and plans, though none are cast in stone. We have been actively involved this week with a handful of very keen ex-managers discussing early design ideas. It's all very exciting for everyone, so if you want to get involved in the action then please do so.
Much learning from designing and developing Ilkor is being applied to the basic approach to bringing Soccer Supremos online, but more on that another time.
Soccer Supremos: The Return of…
Sounds like a movie title doesn't it!
It seems everything nowadays is making a comeback from the past, bands, movies, tv series, etc. We did the same with Gad Games a couple of years ago and although we are not running a game yet we are busy developing one!!
Since we relaunched Gad Games we've had hundreds of ex-managers of Soccer Supremos contact us about the 'good old days', telling us how much they loved the game and many of you asking us to relaunch it. So that is exactly what we are going to do!
Today we started the ball rolling by purchasing the soccersupremos.com domain. It's not much of a start really, but at least we've got the domain now, infact we were quite surprised to find it was still available. We've pointed the domain to a splash page hosted on our Gad Games website. Nothing special, though we hope to improve on this over time.
So, yes Soccer Supremos is coming back, but due to our current commitment on developing Ilkor this is unlikely to start until the end of 2012.
Hope you guys think this is good news.
Cheers,
Sean.
