Deep Learning and get 50% off in the Steam Summer Sale!
AI Opponents and Deep Learning
Our first exciting announcement today is a sneak preview at our work on developing some AI opposition for single players or to make up the numbers in larger games where needed. Witness our first Soccer Nations bots training hard!
Artificial... intelligence? Not quite yet, but soon!
Okay, so it might look chaotic, but it's the first steps towards something big! Deep Learning is a system for training AI that doesn't rely on hardcoded reactions to events. Instead they learn via reward and punishment. It takes a lot more effort to set up initially and a lot of time spent training, but the result will be far more organic and real artificial intelligence that should provide far more entertaining opponents or allies.

Another new Arena, now on Sale!
Hi everyone, here's a quick update from us at Virtual Play!
After the success of the Ship and Underwater arena a month ago, we've just launched the Purgatory arena, where you can play as angels or demons :)
If you previously bought Soccer Nations Battle, this is a free update.
If you didn't, what are you waiting for? We're on sale again! XD
Have fun playing and stay posted for more updates; we'd also love to hear your comments and suggestions!
Update coming up: more arenas
Last week we had a great showcase of Soccer Nations Battle at indie game showcase Indigo (Utrecht, Netherlands). We tested a bunch of new arenas for the game: for instance an arena on a moving ship, and an underwater arena. We're polishing these arenas a bit and will then update the game here on Steam. Looking forward to see what you think of them!
Thanks for your support!
To all the players who've bought the game so far: thank you! We hope you're enjoying this first released alpha version. We're working hard on expanding the game. Let us know if you have any ideas or requests about how to improve the game. It's important to us to know your wishes. We'll do our best to incorporate those during Early Access.
Less than two days of sale left!
Don't forget that our launch discount ends soon, so if you've got friends who would enjoy the game let them know! Or gift it to them if you're feeling generous ;)
