Back to school and to work…

September is a strange month, all boys and girls going back to school, the wheater changes and in general I feel inspired to make new games 🙂
Just one year ago I was finishing my game “The Goalkeeper” and now I just received the new voiceovers to complete the interview section.
I don’t know where I’m heading to with that game: I want to add for sure more soccer related elements like new competition (cups, national teams etc) but also more “life simulation” elements.
For example I am thinking about adding the possibility to choose the goalkeeper living place, his car (you know those soccer guys have always luxurious cars!) and in general put some choices also for his private life.
This would let me add more strategy, talking about money. Now the goalkeeper salary doesn’t matter when changing team. If I add those new elements, the player could also watch for the team that makes the best offer, to be able to continue his luxurious life-style!

Car repair cost!

Just got the quote for the car repair cost… over 4000 euros!! 🙁
Crap, I now need to think if is better to repair that one or buy a new one… anyway can’t complain about Toyota at all . Their cars are of absolute quality, I wonder what would have happened with the accident if I was driving my old Fiat Punto instead… 😀
