    Am totally impressed with how much weather conditions impact the game. Rain makes short passes much shorter and long passes dont bounce as much. You need more power to make simple passes.

    Snow makes ball to slide a lot more. Very easy to owerpower passes.

    So much depth in the gameplay too!!! It will be a shame if this game doesnt get more promotion on app stores or get unnoticed.

    Gianluca, hat-off to you - sensi was my favourite arcade football game ever and will always have a special place but you have definitely taken this type of football games to the next level. Very well done!!!
    If I may suggest another game to you and rest of ppl to try - Natural Soccer. It is more kick-off than Sensi but still fun little game. I however find AS2 much much better!

    The smaller stick isn't a con when using a controller because your using your thumb and not your hand on a stick. Works great with the XL.

    Thank you, I am glad you talk about game play depth. I think there are millions way to build a goal, with dribbles, with wings and centering, with passes in the space, etc..everyone can please their preferred style. I also like for example play with West Ham, I love to shield the ball with Andy Carroll.

    Unfortunately the risk to be unnoticed is present, so far I only got 1 review
    http://it.ign.com/m/touch-me/92763/review/touch-me-92-i-giochi-per-smartphone-e-tablet-della
    it got 8 / 10

    Absolutely Gianluca. Endless possibilities. Check out my best goal so far. Am also getting a hang of long passes #

    8/10 is a great result although i feel a bit underdone imo. What was their criticism? (Apologies for my ignorance but I do not speak Italian)

    It doesn't point out specific drawbacks. It just says that controls are not so easy without a physical controller and that it may not have much appeal for the younger generations.

    Hopefully TA is working on a review...

    Hope for you they are too!

    And I am going to do my part by writing a review on the App Store right now! Best I can do to help promote it :)

    Edit - done. Also everyone else that has bought it, go pop a review down. Let's get the game noticed :)

    I've contacted a couple sites that say they will be doing
    A review this week. Hope they weren't being untrue because this
    Game deserves a review if that trash called fifa 15 can get one why
    Not active soccer 2. We should be doing more to promote co
    And devs doing it right, ea is a sham these days but this dev has answered
    Every question we have had and listen to our ideas and feedback and for
    That he rocks Cuz we all know the big name co will never listen. Thanks Gianluca!
    This game will get noticed sooner or later.

    Pretty average review at best. They havent really invested time to do a proper review and give game a chance to shine. Oh well...

    Eh... in a world of casual game (like mobile generally is) many times iphone games don't receive proper attention. This is a "hardcore game" with minimal graphic..
    but this is true for "easy" gamer... Pocket Gamer, perhaps, had to be more professional...

    the review it is a bit disappointing but I understand that it is difficult to let people change idea on 20 years of FIFA/PES gameplay.
    For example the reviews I get on Apple Store are really weird, I get a lot of 5 stars and 1 star review. No 2-3-4 stars so far :confused:
