Vintage FootBall Game

## Description

The crowds is yelling, the band is playing, cheerleaders are dancing on the field, you and your opponent to enter the field. Both of you, have 4 - fifteen minute quarters to score, either by running, to the goal line or kicking the ball through the uprights as many times against the opposing team. You know what you have to do, you have a strategy, you have a goal, play ball!

When you get possession of the ball, you can either run the ball to the opposing teams goal, or kick a field goal on forth down.

Defense is controlled by the computer, it will do everything it can to stop you, minus shooting, nuking, kicking or eye gouging.

Running is controlled by the arrow keys, you can move up, down, or forward. With these movements you evade the defense . You have 3 downs to move the ball before deciding if you are going continue to run or kick the ball.

I am charging only for the work I've done on the game, if you want the game for free go to github at: https://github.com/johnclute/PlayFootBall.
You need Swift the latest version to run it.

How to play:
Game Objective:
The object of the game is to score, either by running to the goal line, or kick a field goal, within four, 15 minute Quarters.

Defense is Red

Offense is Orange, this is the Running Back, signifying they have the ball.

Starting the game:
First of all the game initially starts with the power off, the game needs to be powered on.

Before the game is powered on, the program should be set, this set the game difficulty, 1 for easy; 2 for more difficult.

When the game is powered on you don't need to press the status or score key to reset the play. You can start play immediately.

Game Play:
The down begins when Offense, when the Running Back gets the ball 2 yards behind the line of scrimmage, he can move, either up, down or forward. The Defense will immediately move towards the runner, who's job is to avoid the defense and score. Pressing the Up, Down, or Forward keys you move the ball carrier to the goal line. Up and Down are used to side step the defense. The forward key is to move you forward towards the goal.

Forth Down is a special case, a player can either run or kick. If they kick then the play is same. However, if they choose to Kick, if the player is in their field territory, then the kick will be a punt. On the other hand if the ball is the defense territory, this will be a field goal attempt. Much like real football, the close you are the better the chance to make a field goal.

End of Down:
The down will end when the Running Back is tackled by the defense, this is signaled by a short whistle blow.

A 25 second delay of game timer starts at the end of each play.

Each series of plays goes on 4 times, unless like real Football they get a first down, then the player gets to repeat 4 more times.

This is done until they are stopped before get past the forth down marker in the downs allotted, or they score.

However, if the Running Back crosses the goal line, a longer whistle blow will indicate a goal was scored.

Beginning a new Down.
When the down is finished, a new down is set up and ready to go when the ST or SC button are pressed, these are play Status, or Score.

Status displays on score board
