    Love the game but it can be difficult to tell your players from the opposition as they all have the same heads.

    Is it possible to change the head colour for each team?

    Does it have intrusive advertisements yet? Because I guarantee it will-as far as I can recall ALL Djinnworks games has gotten them. They've all gone paid->free (adverts added)-> paid. Don't buy this folks.

    You are wrong.
    Stickman Soccer 2014 was free with IAP unlock at launch. I see it went to 1,99 from Dec 29 '14 to Jan 05 '15, though. I don't know why.
    The first Stickman Soccer was ever free.

    After a few tests we decided against different head colors as this looks really, really strange. Indeed we added two additional cloth color options for each team. So now you can select between two team colors, red and whitewhich improved visibility a lot. Additionally we made the stickman a bit thicker too.

    It sounds fine, especially thicker stickmen.

    Colors

    We discussed this topic and we think that colored heads might look a little strange :) so we decided to make the Stickman players a little thicker, that should help. This will be onboard with the next update!

    I really like this game

    I do have some thoughts though

    Switching defenders is sluggish and seems a bit erratic. There is a notable pause where you're not in control of your defender when switching. Also, when switching it often chooses another defender than the one i was expecting (i.e. the one closest to the ball or the one in the best defending position)

    Players runs too fast with the ball. It's almost impossible to catch an attacker from behind but in football most players run slower with the ball than without it. Except of course Yaya Toure but i expect that's because of his laziness in his old age. Also i'd love for the sliding tackles to be more effective. Either by slowing the ball carrier down or by having sliding defenders slide faster and further

    I agree.
    Some days ago I wrote this



    Yep, but I think it's right... It's an arcade experience, isn't it?

    It is but look at the recently released Pixel Cup 16. That's an arcade football game too but there you can actually catch the player with the ball and sliding tackles goes much further than here

    I think it's possible to maintain the arcade feel while making sliding tackles more effective

    So i decided to try something new - simply letting go of all controls and only pressing the switch defender button made it much more fluent. I guess a big part of my issue came from expecting it to switch to another player and thus i often found myself running the wrong way. It also seemed to alleviate the newly selected defender not being responsive

    I still feel that slide tackles could be more useful but i suppose that's a matter of preference

    Great game but then most you guys games are

    Player switch

    We have finished a big improvement on player switch algorithm today and we will submit this tomorrow morning. I promise you will feel much better with it!

    Awesome, can't wait:)

    Also, i think i found a very minor bug

    When the ref blows for halftime, sometimes pressing either of the buttons does nothing so you have to watch all the players leave the field before the game continues

    The new version with all these improvements, replay, share, controller support and local multiplayer should go live in the next one or two days.

    Thanks for the hint, we will immediately investigate this...

    Update is out and it is fantastic

    The changes to defending makes this the best arcade football game on IOS in my opinion. It now feels like you're in complete control of your defenders

    Awesome!

    Yep! And fix about visibility of players works well.

    But I found a bug.
    Before update I had started a Djinnworks Cup, playing a couple of matches.
    After update I couldn't resume it, game was crashing ever and ever when I was tapping on "Seasons".
    So I uninstalled/reinstalled SS2016 and I started a new cup. It seemed ok, but at the end of the first match game crashed and I couldn't resume the cup again. :(
    France 2016 and quick matches work fine.

    Changing the subject, I think AI should press more when you keep the ball with a defender or the goalkeeper. If you are winning you could keep the ball until the end of the match.
