    Dear developer,

    Please add achievements, possibly through GameCenter. Otherwise this is an awesome, quirky game :D

    Thanks people! :)

    I was about to add GC achievements to this first version of Soccer Physics but couldn't come up with (good) enough achievements and wanted to release the game ASAP, as the FIFA World Cup had just ended.

    If you have some awesome (or even crappy) ideas for possible achievements, please do share :)

    Edit: Also, I'm adding more teams (shirts) to the game too, but they'll still probably be totally random.

    Yet another brilliant game :D this is a very close second place to wrestle jump, your games are always such simple one button stuff but with great physics. Love them.

    Edit: two button mode = awesome :D

    Is it multiplayer only, or is there bots you can play against?

    I answered my own question with one of the screen shots of the game. Definitely getting this app.

    There's also a pretty tough 1 player mode. Fun stuff. It's like a mix of Wrestle Jump and Sumotori.

    Sumotori name drop! Used to play that game all the time on my computer. So fun, would be perfect for mobile

    That's like the perfect description of this. Wrestle Jump + Sumotori. Actually that dev made a new game called Goofy Goals. Which is soccer with Sumotori physics

    This is the best.

    -Header goal in no-heads mode
    -5-0 shutout in single-player mode
    -Own goal win in a 4-4 match

    I think it would be better if the ball was given to the team opposite of whoever knocks the ball out of bounds, not just the team opposite of which side the ball went out on.

    I managed to make one player lay straight on top of a standing player creating a "T". That could be and achievement. Also getting in front of another player could be one also.

    It's really fun, needs som new modes though.

    How about a basketball mode? We decided to play a few games to try to purposely have the ball go over the net and it proved to be fun, but would have been a lot more fun with hoops on top and a back board so there is no out of bounds. I think a basketball mode would be really fun.

    Or maybe something stupid like puppy mode where a little dog is on the field chasing the ball. Could trip the players and hit the ball. Could make for something interesting.

    Love the Sumo Player idea!

    How about a "Double Head Stand" achievement.

    Or "To The Moon" for 10,000 Jumps.

    "Sheep Dog" Put both your opponents in their goal in a multiplayer game. Or maybe something where you have to put your opponents in YOUR goal.

    "Field Goal" This is when you kick the American Football out of bounds three times.

    "Slip & Slide" Score 100 goals on the slippery field.

    "Day at the Beach" Score 100 goals with the beach ball

    "Where's My Horse" Score 100 goals with no head

    Could be tough, but how about a basketball and the goals are now on their backs so you would have to make a basket to score. A bit tough, likely, but just something that came to me.

    Anyway, great game and has already brought a lot of laughs to my house.

    Thanks! And best of luck with it!

    What about a volleyball mode? You can put the goals in the middle (or a net) and players have to kick it over the goal/net and make the ball touch the ground or go out of play, would be great, you can even make a beach soccer or tennis soccer mode with the same things

    Omg, people, thank you! :) Tons of great ideas for achievements here. You will see some of these achievements in the game in the near future, once I get back to work.

    Thanks for all the other ideas as well! And I originally did have basketball in the game but couldn't get it to feel just right, but I'm going to give this another shot :)

    putermcgee, the out of bounds thing is a bug in my code, whoops!

    Sumotori dreams is on iOS. It's clumsy, but what else would it be?
