New Football Sim in Limited Public Release

jdavidbakr · 06-10-2013, 01:00 PM

Hey guys,

I've been working on a project over the last several years, and am excited to announce that it is now in a limited public release, meaning the first 32 players to sign up will get a team. The game is called My Football Now and here is the URL:

MyFootballNow - Professional Football Management Simulator

See you guys up there!

DaddyTorgo · 06-10-2013, 01:14 PM

Looks interesting. I bet you'll get 32 guys here to help you eagerly pound through it and work out any issues. If I had more time I'd volunteer, but I suspect I'd just let it fall by the wayside due to all the stuff I have going on.

Will be keeping an eye on it though!!

Good luck.

Thanks, guys!

yeah, im in...

Looks interesting but not enough free time to do the testing justice. Good luck with the project! I'll definitely check it out when it is widely available.

Same here. Wish I could devote more time to it, but that would not be fair to you. I look forward to seeing how your project goes, though. Good luck!

jdavidbakr · 06-10-2013, 05:21 PM

Thanks everyone who signed up - we've almost got half the league filled in a couple of hours. The sims will run once the league is 70% full, so we're getting close!

Don't have time right now, but best of luck!

This might be a unique question, but is it playable through an ipad browser? I find I am only on my laptop a few times a week now.

Is "Manage your" suppose to be covered by "Now?" It is that way looking at it in Chrome.

It should be - I did test it in iOS, all of the drag and drop functionality does work.

Hm, that's interesting, it sounds like the font didn't load correctly. The font there as well as the menu should be a narrow font that should have enough room for the surrounding items. I would like to know why it's not loading, I'm unable to duplicate this on my end. Anyone else seeing this?

It might have not loaded simply because the font isn't available for the Windows OS.

Shouldn't be the issue, it's a webfont, and Chrome is usually really good with those even in Windows. What version of Chrome is it?

It could also possibly be something with your web proxy, are you at a work computer or at home?

One spot remains in the inaugural league - sims have started, training camp runs on Saturday and the pre-season starts next week.
