Kick Off

Kick Off is a football computer game released in 1989 by Anco for Amiga and Atari ST. It is considered a pioneer game because, contrary to all its predecessors, the ball didn't stick to the player's feet but was realistically kicked ahead from the players. This added an important degree of difficulty and skill requirement at the same time. This, along with other original features (like aftertouch, action replays, players with different characteristics, tactics, different pitch types, etc) made Kick Off and especially its successor, Kick Off 2 , one of the most successful football game series ever. Kick Off enthusiasts argue that no other game gives you so much amount of control over the action.

Even though versions for other computers followed, the Atari ST and especially the Amiga versions were by far the best. Kick Off was first developed for the Atari ST and then ported to the Amiga.

Kick Off was developed by Dino Dini (programming, design) and Steve Screech (graphics, design, testing).
