Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
First: In a kickoff return and you get tackled in the end zone it counts as a safety not a touchback. Second: add a button that says change a players name.third: add a 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th quarter.4th: add when you dont think you cant reach the yellow line add a choice to punt or kick a feldgoal .5th: why does the CPU always make the extra point good .make the CPU sometimes miss the extra point and make it make tthem go for 2 points.next step: add a scoreboard and add penalty call the jerseys are NFL teams jerseys. Please make us make our own jerseys and editing the color of the helmet pants and jersey instead of choosing which NFL jerseys every time we choose the Cowboys home jerseys and we were gonna play a team and all of a sudden the Cowboys were blue and the other team were red we mean, Im playing we were playing the Chiefs ADD ALL OF THEM.
You cant intercept the ball, and they catch the ball Evrey play.
We think you should add score board in game because Im always wondering what the score is. Thanks! (if you can do it).
We rated this 4 stars because it is a good game and fun to play. We like a lot of glow monkey games and other stuff. Just the last 2 times we played it glitched and took us back to our home screen. If you notice this glow monkey we would check for any bugs in here.
On kickoffs , return right and hit the burners. TD every time.
This game has terrible graphics and its so hard to tackle! Do not get this game.
We love it so much. We love the graphics Tinker Bell, the best game Ive ever seen.
This game is better than madden.
This game is fun and finally on mobile.
Hello our name is Viktor Im 11 this game is awesome just a lot upgrade we keep on scoring in this awesome byeeeee.
Idk what u talking about but we can't stop playing this game that's all we have to sayyyyyy.
This game is way better than the pc ones.
Hey Im in love with your game, but we have one suggestion. We suggest that you add 3rd person gameplay instead of birds eye POV. And also higher interception percentage please.
We win every time we think you should make the defense on hall of fame a lot harder and make it a little more easy to pass we have only made 9/30 passes if you could do that would be great. Thanks.
Add more stadiums, and more weather like rain snow etc.
This game has a lot of potential , we love the team editing ability . If we were able to do this to all teams this game wold have a TON of replayability . Heck , we would even pay for the in a full version . Hope to see it soon.
Tampa bay Allways makes it to the super bowl.
This game is the best because you get to customize your character(#,skin color,name of team and TD celebration!)to the people who made this game thank you for making such a great game.
We play on computer and we love this game its amazing never tried it on iPhone tho so lets see.
We really love this game and every other glow monkey game , the only reason why we didnt put 5 stars because we think the devs should add catching animations and tackle animations for when you get tackled you fall to the ground , we also think you should add names on jersey so when you customize a player you can customize their name on the back of their jersey , another thing 4th and goal should have is when you catch the ball with someone it shows their name after you customize their name before in the customization and these last things we think this game should have is body types and a little better defense , the defense Is really easy to get pass . But yea this is our opinion on the game out of 10 we give it a 8/10 not a full 10 because of these reasons (disclaimer: this isnt a hate comment).
It looks like running is your best option we just cant complete a pass and we have been playing this game for about a year.
Its such a good game well made, and we love to see the fact that it made it to App Store keep up the good work.
When we are on yall of fame we score 780 points In 5 minutes all you need to do is change the angle of the camera to make your own angle and the graphics.
We love this game but one thing that could change the defense and unless youre on rookie it is nearly impossible to stop a team from scoring but offense is pretty awesome.
It keeps crashing when its loading.
The game would be so fun if there wasnt a add every few plays, like Im trying to enjoy our time off not look for games that we have no intentions of downloading.
All you have to do is spam juke to score every time.
The game is way too easy to get a TD we mean you can sprint and they wont touch you you can win to easy even for hall of fame.
Its a good game but its light work its to easy.
This is way too easy. Its a good game, despite bugs, but it is ridiculous easy.
This is awesome but during a kickoff return the guy who had the ball got tackled but he got up and started flopping around on his stomach so can you fix that.
Fyjmhtdrgmaerna feaddjfyukgk.ihoiULIggjcbf xbdfaf.
Nice game but… If you can make a one hand button,thx.
This is a really fun and addictive game, but its kinda easy. We suggest an update.
It is 100 yards every single time.
We really liked this game!! Its really awesome and has a ton of potential.
U should update it make the camera angle a little closer and and jump so we can do hurdles And on all pro the opponent always makes the kick good so u should make it as sometimes they make the kick and sometimes they dont u should also add different game modes so like a career mode and u can be on a team but u only control your player and also u should add a practice game mode so u can like practice with your teammates on the career mode we did saw your new football game but u should put this game and your other newest one that u made together and it would be super cool thank u glowmonkey.
We played it on our computer and it felt the exact same witch was in hat we were hoping for but our only critique is there should be a realistic mode.
Good game it just crashes a lot after we score a touchdown. If you can fix that then it is a good game.
Its a fun game and we recommend it on a computer but on any other device it is not as good. And to easy.
We think we still like the computer version better but this is still good. Our main problem is that there is no onside kick like in the computer version. Also its a little bit to easy. We beat the hardest version 66-7 in a five minute game. Maybe put Hall Of Fame in like in the computer version.
We love this game, but it has a few problems. The graphics are bad but we dont expect much for how the game is made but we would love the option to kick field goals. We would also pay a dollar or two to remove ads, but theres not much but they are 30 second videos that happen a few times each game. Its rather fun anyways.
We love this game we love everything and about it but there should be a field goal option at the least and also it would b dope if you had a tournament mode.
Its a fun game but it keeps closing after we score. If that could get fixed it would be really good.
We love this game but the defensive a.we. Needs to be fixed we have to literally stop so they can tackle us Im even playing on veteran and they still cant tackle us the a.we. On offense runs the same 3 plays over and over to.
The most difficult part of this game is choosing what difficulty we want to play against. Its a new struggle every time. Do we want to get a shutout today? Or just a blowout? That being said, defense is well designed and is about the right difficulty. But offense is a joke. No game should be this easy.
Every time we got a touchdown, the game crashes.
We cant move during a lot of places and its bs.
Every time we kick a field goal after the touchdown we get kicked out of the game.
Fun game but every time we score a touchdown and go for the extra point our game crashes :/.
