Gameplay[edit]
The player selects a team, aiming to win promotion from the 'B' Division, to the 'A' and then Premier Division. If in the top four by mid-season in any division, the player's team will be invited to the Off-The-Wall Indoor Invitational. After winning the Premier Division, the player's team will be invited to represent the United States in the Astonishingly Shiny Cup of All Cups Tournament (a spoof of the FIFA World Cup). Regardless of the tournament's outcome, the player's team will be placed back in the Premier Division for another chance at the Cup.
Thanks.EDIT: Would it be possible to use the InstallESD.dmg from a 10.9.2 installer to build a bootable USB drive to install 10.9.5?? I'm signed up as an Xcode developer (ha) so I should be able to get it from there if it's available, but haven't seen it.
There are several power-ups that a team can use. To activate a power-up, the player has to click on the opponent's goal.
- Cannon—The player launches a fast and powerful shot
- Underground—The ball goes underground and pops up in a random place.
- Bowling Ball—The ball transforms into a giant bowling ball knocking over any opposing players.
- Tracer—The ball is controlled using the cursor. Players click where they want the ball to go.
Reception[edit]
Backyard Soccer received moderate reviews. Its gameplay was criticized for the hard-to-use controls for the PC version and long loading time, while its graphics were praised on all platforms.[1][2][3][4] Brad Cook of Allgame stated for the PC version, 'when it comes to their Backyard Sports series, though, I think they missed the boat in one really crucial area: game controls.'[1] Bluestacks mac silicone.
