Super Club Soccer is a tactical, turn-based football game that revolutionizes traditional soccer gameplay by combining strategy with comprehensive club management. Built from the earlier game Football Identity, it allows players to control individual characters in online battles, where every team member is controlled by real players. The game combines FIFA Pro Clubs-style gameplay with deep tactical features, allowing players to create custom characters, manage clubs, and compete in worldwide tournaments using a new turn-based gameplay system.

PC (Steam), with SteamOS + Linux support
Synchronizing Multiple Development Frameworks – Integrating Unity3D, ML agents, and complex mapping algorithms for seamless gameplay experience
Managing Concurrent Users and Backend Performance – Managing high numbers of players at the same time and keeping servers running well during global tournaments
Visualizing Complex Turn-Based Mechanics – Calculating and displaying each player’s move within the tight 6-second time limit while keeping gameplay smooth
Multi-Phase Turn Communication – Making sure players understand the 4-phase turn system (possession, team movement, defense, resolve) without confusion
Continuous Feature Integration – Managing ongoing updates and new feature implementations without disrupting the existing gameplay experience
Anti-Cheat and Fair Play Systems – Preventing cheating in competitive multiplayer environments with user-controlled characters and financial club management

Rigorous Multi-Framework Testing – Set up complete testing cycles to ensure smooth data sharing between Unity3D, AI tools, and mapping systems
Database Optimization and Indexing – Used proper database organization, performance improvements, and faster data processing to handle maximum users during busy tournament times
Client-Side Move Estimation – Used client-side processing for basic move calculations and display, reducing server data needs while keeping the 6-second turn limit
Multi-Timer Phase Communication – Created multiple countdown timers with set positions to show current turn phases and player duties clearly
Scalable Code Architecture – Built modular, expandable code from the start to add new features throughout development easily
Server-Side Validation System – Implemented robust anti-cheat mechanisms, including server-side action validation, encrypted data transmission, and real-time monitoring for suspicious activities

Turn-Based Core System – Built a 4-phase turn structure with 6-second intervals (reduced to 2 seconds for AI-only matches), allowing tactical decisions for possession, movement, defense, and resolution
Character Creation and Progression – Created dual character system (Player/Manager) with customizable builds, training paths, and three development options (Early Peak, Mid Peak, Late Peak)
Machine Learning AI Integration – Deployed ML agents to create challenging single-player experiences that adapt to player behavior and skill levels
Club Management System – Built complete club creation tools with kit/badge customization, financial management, stadium upgrades, and player contract systems
Tournament and Matchmaking Infrastructure -Established automated tournament systems with regional ladders and custom match creation abilities
Cross-Platform Compatibility – Ensured smooth gameplay across Windows and SteamOS + Linux platforms with optimized performance for different hardware types
The game achieved successful early access release with positive player reviews, praising the innovative turn-based approach to football simulation and the depth of tactical gameplay options.
Established active international player base with daily/weekly tournaments featuring teams from around the globe, demonstrating the effectiveness of the matchmaking and networking solutions.
Delivered a product that not only met but exceeded the client’s original vision, successfully transforming the concept from Football Identity into a polished, feature-rich tactical football experience.
Achieved stable server performance capable of handling concurrent users during peak tournament times, with the scalable architecture supporting continuous feature rollouts without gameplay disruption.
Super Club Soccer represents a successful transformation of traditional football gaming through new turn-based mechanics and complete club management features. The development team overcame significant technical challenges in multi-system integration, handling many users, and complex turn-based display to deliver a unique gaming experience. The implementation of AI learning, strong anti-cheat systems, and expandable design has resulted in a well-received early access title that stands out in the sports simulation genre. The project’s success demonstrates the viability of tactical turn-based approaches in sports gaming while establishing a strong foundation for future feature expansions and community growth.
