Field notes
The homepage lays out the kick controls in sequence: hold for aim and power, slide to shape the ball’s curl, then release. It describes 504 setups between 17 and 33 metres and a keeper that adapts to the round’s earlier shots. Story progress is organized into 16 chapters, each with three levels and a boss; the site says bosses unlock VHS episodes. The game is presented as forthcoming for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
