About Pill Soccer
Pill Soccer is soccer with pill-shaped players or a pill physics ball. The bounce is taller than a normal ball.
How To Play Pill Soccer
Let the pill settle
Volleying the first bounce is a lottery.
Shoot along the ground if you can
High pills come down on the keeper.
Do not jump with everyone
A pill over two jumpers is a goal.
Gameplay Experience
Small sided
You see the ball the whole time. There is nowhere to hide a bad touch.
Goals are cheap if you rush
The shape is the joke and the difficulty.
Rematches are the mode
These games are built to play again immediately.
Gameplay Mechanics
Move / kick / jump
If a header exists, it is a jump. If a shot exists, it is a kick button.
Keeper
Some games give you one. Do not leave the line to join the pile.
Special
A charged shot is for an open look, not a 40-yard hope.
