(yes the slow mo is an in-game mechanic)
Kopanito is an arcade, 2D soccer game created and developed by three-people-team MerixGames.
The game is fully playable in a single-player or local multi-player mode and seems to be bug-free of which we're very proud of.
You can play a friendly match against friends or AI (or with friends against AI). There are 16 competitions (continental cups + world cup) to complete, each one can be played with friends too (all players in one team only). AI teams are easy to beat (easy difficulty) after some practice, so it's advised to play against your friends after that until better AI will be developed.
Kopanito's match engine is well-balanced. You can pass the ball along the ground or use lobs, you can also pass on a straight line between opponents. Scoring goals can be achieved by outmaneuvering the goalkeeper, or by chip shots or precise shots over a longer distance where ball swerve is also possible. Slide tackle is also a powerful move if used precisely, allows to steal the ball, intercept passes or even score a goal.
Included are 5 super-moves: super-shot, ball magnet, teleport, windmaker and freeze. These can be used to gain an advantage over an opponent or to aid in defending and require some precision and good timing for best results. More super-moves will be added in future too.”
Most important upcoming features are player online multiplayer mode, attributes and perks, Steam workshop.
We already created the better AI (4 difficulty levels), custom tournament and Steam integration (achievements, leaderboards, workshop).
But there are more features planned, like extended match engine with headers, overhead kicks, knocking out opponents, more super-moves and competitions to complete.”
