Kick Off 2 Remake: Throw In, Retro Footballgame (Free download)

Hi

A new remake of the classic Amiga football game Kick Off 2 is under development. The name of the game is Throw In and a couple of days ago a new betaversion was released and it is available for download (for free).

The gameplay is very similar to the gameplay in Kick Off 2 but also have similarities with Sensible World Of Soccer. Share your thoughts here or on the forum I link to.

Note! This is a beta version and many improvements concerning gameplay, features and GFX will be made for the final version.

Does it really matter.

99% of the people have better cpu:s than that nowadays so why not use them.

and the space is hardly any problems today either.

Impressive. Very impressive and more like a real old school footy sim. How many GBs are FIFA and PES? And yes, I find this more playable than both these.

I gotta say, that looks like how Sensible Soccer 2006 SHOULD'VE looked like. 'Cause it looks more like Sensi than Kick Off.

I'll be looking into this.

EDIT: ...and now I have. It's a great game, it doesn't feel exactly like the original, but that's not necessary anyway. I also think this game could do well with either 360 degree control, or the 180 degree turn feature from Goal!. Regardless, I hope you plan on making in playable on a gamepad, 'cause if you don't, I won't be playing it again anytime soon.

Unless joy2key works.

I think it looks more like Sensi cause the default cam is tilted. However, you can switch to an overhead cam and then it looks more like Kick Off 2 (I prefer to play it that way). the default cam is tilted because it looks better and to attract more people.
