    Play against a friend, or random opponent, over the internet.

  • 4-Player Local Multiplayer

SAF v. 0.900 - Story Mode and Original Soundtrack by Barry Leitch



Dear Super Arcade Friends,

I could not be more excited about this update to our favourite arcade football game. We're finally giving (early) access to the Story Mode! Along with that, we're thrilled to announce a collaboration with Barry Leitch, who has created an original soundtrack just for Super Arcade Football.

For the few people that are not familiar with Barry, he has composed many iconic tunes for games, since the 8 and 16-bit days. Among those, Lotus 2, Super Cars 2 and, more recently, the great Horizon Chase Turbo. Barry is not new to football games, having fathered the soundtrack of titles such as Emlyn Hughes international soccer (C64), Kickoff  (NES), Microprose soccer (Amiga/ST/Amstrad/Spectrum), Soccer Tycoon (Facebook), Championship Manager (PC) and European Champions (Amiga).

To gel perfectly with the game pixel graphics, all those tunes have been created in the Amiga mod tracker format. I invite you to launch the game, go to the settings screen and listen to all the 12 amazing tracks that Barry has composed. Be warned, you won't be able to get them out of your head, they are that good!

The tunes from Barry are the perfect complement for the game's story mode. We can't wait to get your feedback on the story mode as well.

In this release you can also find a lot of improvements. Including being able to charge your next shot before receiving the ball, which makes even more amazing goals possible.

Thanks a lot to any of you that has provided feedback, including (but not limited to):
pablo.g, Casana, stefanosiore, Inferno, pearce64, hexaae, Sabata, Falco K, Daniele C, Daniel T, Korben D, and ZyuzA.

Enjoy and see you at the next announcement!
