About the Game

Bad Football is a fast-paced indie football game where rules don’t apply.

Boot the referee to kick off, then do whatever you want on the pitch. Land brutal tackles, roam beyond the touchline, and demolish the goal with overpowered shots.

The game has simple controls but advanced mechanics. Master your craft and you will humiliate your opponents!

Game modes in early access:

  • Match: Take on the CPU across 3 difficulty levels, or face a friend in local 1v1. Share a keyboard or plug in controllers to keep your distance.

  • Worst Cup: Pick one of the 48 national teams, battle through the group stage and knockout rounds, and lift the trophy as the best team in the world.




We're hard at work on v1.0. We wish to add to our game:

  • Online PvP

  • Training: Learn some tricks at your own pace.

  • Game-changing items and power-ups

  • Create and share your own teams

  • Refined gameplay based on your feedback!

Bad Football: a 2D indie sports game for casual gamers and football fans. Or soccer, as Americans call it.

Play it during the world cup season :)
