Online PvP is here
It took a good while OK. Yes, we admit it: we took a month off this summer. But look what we've got now: you can play Bad Football against other fellow "humans", over "The Internet", without having to share their greasy keyboard!
This is a first version, but it already has client-side prediction and lag compensation, it's like cutting edge technology and all. Speaking of which it's cross-play between Win/Mac and browser and you can invite someone to play for FREE against you in major browsers and probably minor browsers too (testing a minor game in a minor browser felt silly, by the way, we like to say the word "browser" a lot )
How you get a match
Find an opponent: the game matches you with a random person, it's destiny manifest. We have servers in Europe, North America, Asia and South America for now, but let us know if you need one in Timbuktu.
Invite a Steam friend straight from your friends list, like ordering pizza.
Invite anyone else with a link. They play in their browser, no Steam needed, FREE.
Profiles: your avatar and profile picture now follow you into the waiting screen, the match and the results. You can shuffle your trainer until you like the colour of their pants.
Connection bars in the match tell you whose fault the lag is (it's never the game's fault and we won't admit it anyway).
Also since June 14
Charged shots now sound like charged shots.
Controllers show their real names, and keyboards say which layout they are (WASD, ZQSD, Arrows). But there's some known bugs here that we're about to fix.
Unplugging a controller mid-match no longer leaves your player running forever.
Back buttons on the menus and Worst Cup screens, for mouse and touch players.
The Quit box got an upgrade: it's red and it's angry.
Privacy switches in Settings: you decide if we get usage stats and crash reports. We never use your computer's user name.
Fixed: quitting a Worst Cup match halfway used to leave your next exhibition stuck in Worst Cup mode.
The Steam download is about 50 MB lighter.
