I'm proud to announce the release of Super VR Trainer on Early Access so everyone of you can participate on the development of the various games it includes.
Also, to celebrate the release, we've included a new game: Hover Board. How long can you survive surfing this futuristic landscape? Let's find out!
So, welcome to Early Access! We are eager to get your feedback!
Permanent price drop and new VR game!
Hi everyone!
Just a quick note to let you know that I've permanently dropped Soccertron price. Thanks everyone who purchased it full price along the years, but the time has come for a price drop.
On other news, I'm publishing a new VR game: Super VR Trainer. It's a collection of different mechanics for... VR. It's coming soon to Early Access and we are eager to get feedback so we can release a great game.
IndieCade East will take place this April 29 - May 1, 2016 at the Museum of the Moving Image in New York City and Soccertron is one of the showcased games!
As a celebration for this event, I'm running a 60% discount for the following days.
Enjoy!
New update: v. 2016041102
Mainly improved visuals, but also a few minor tweaks and bug fixes:
Shiny New graphics for the players.
Renewed animations, for the new graphics.
Show tips before starting a game.
Exiting a match will take you to the game selection scene instead of the main menu.
New background for the game and controller selection screen.
Performance improvements
Some cleanup, so the game has a smaller size now
New command line option: "+allowtimecontrol". I'll let you guess what's the use of it...
I hope you enjoy the player's new graphics, although I have to admit that I'll miss the old ones a bit :)
By the way, the new trailer music is by my friend Sergeeo
Achievements fixed
Last September update screwed achievements on all platforms. Today's update fixes that.
Soccertron on BundleStars!
Just a kick note to let you know that Soccertron is available as part of the Trinity 3 Bundle, so this is a great opportunity to grab it with a few other games!
50% off during a few days!
I'm pleased to announce that as a celebration for the new release Soccertron will be 50% off for 10 days, so if you haven't grabbed your copy yet, now's the perfect time!
A shiny new release!
After a few months without updates (sorry!) here's a new version with:
Improved visuals: Now the game fields are real 3D models which gives a better depth perception.
Now you can choose AI difficulty: Easy, normal, hard
Enable/disable screen shake
Enable/disable gamepad vibration
Enable/disable screen bloom
Improved gameplay for Volleytron and Pittron
Changes "under the hood" that will allow to remap keyboard controls on a future update.
Bugs fixes (no more "getting into the wall under certain conditions")
I hope you enjoy the new look and improved gameplay (the new AI is better at being good... and not so good)
Thanks for playing!
Beta 2015.09.01
This new beta is the one to become the release version in a couple of days.
The main addition to it is this option...
I think the balance between the 3 levels (easy, normal, hard) is good enought, but if it's not, just let me know and I'll try to rebalance it. Balancing an AI is a really hard task :)
By the way, if you ever wonder why the game version is numbered like that (2015.09.01)... it's not that I've released lots of versions (like someone said one day). It's just the release date :)

There'll be a proper changelog when the update is released, but a here's a glance:

Improved gameplay for Volleytron and Pittron.
Those are the most important changes, I hope you like the pre-update!
