Tiny Football is reaching a significant milestone as it comes out of 6 months of Early Access into full release, version 1.0. This is a round up of all features that have been added to the game in that time. I'm very grateful to all those who have contributed feedback and taken an interest in the game. And the work doesn't stop now, I'll continue to put out updated versions with new features and fixes, as well as taking ideas from players. [b]Enhancements to gameplay[/b] I improved the AI of the opposing team, making them more challenging to play against, less predictable and working more defensively using zonal marking.

Visually this makes off the ball players appear less static than before but more importantly they are working together as a team whether defending or attacking. [b]Season enhancements[/b] More countries have been added to the season mode in addition to English club teams. So far I've added German, French, Italian, Spanish and Scottish. I also added a new feature that allows players to buy and sell players during the transfer window to enable squad building. Also, players now age and retire as well as new players coming up through the youth squads adding a slight managerial feel to the game, whilst keeping it fun and simple.

I added a new main menu screen, which allows players to easily navigate through different game modes, such as quick match, season mode, and tournaments. Team selection screens got a major face lift with animated carousel sliders to choose national and club teams from various countries. I also improved the layout of options screen prior to each match to allow users to set options there and then, as well as choose team colours.

A new squad selection screen during match fixtures has been added to allow changing of squad and tactics between matches. [b]Addition of female players and Women's World Cup[/b] In addition to the existing Men's World Cup, I've added a Women's World Cup to allow players to compete in either of these prestigious events... just in time for the Women's World Cup 2023 kicking off in Australia and New Zealand.

I believe that the improvements to the UI, gameplay, and game modes will enhance the overall player experience and make Tiny Football even more fun to play. And with a long list of features yet to come, I'm looking forward to what new additions I can add over the next few months. [h2]Continued support and additional features[/h2] Finally, I'd like to mention that I will continue to build upon the progress made so far. I've still a host of additions I'm keen to add. In fact, I already have the next update in beta testing and plan on following up with more. I still enjoy developing the game and watching it grow so watch this space for new and exciting features.
