Where did we start?
The Idea for World of Football started all the way back in 1992 when Dennis played a lot of Kick Off and Sensible Soccer on the Commodore Amiga. Both games were great but there was room for improvement. Together with Jon Rocatis (Io Interactive) and Simon Holm (Reto-Moto) work begun on a 2D version on the Amiga but had to be abandoned due to lack of time. Later a 3D version was being produced with Jad Nohra (Havok) but again we ran out of time and money.
When did we start?
The team started work on the concept in 2010, and went in full production when Big Bite Games was founded in May 2011. Big Bite games is an independent games company.
Where are we going?
World of football is going to be the first game of Big Bite Games. The game will initially launch on Facebook and we see this as a steppingstone to branch out to other platforms like Android, iOS, PC, PSN and XBLA. The goal for Big Bite Games is to produce one to two titles each year on any possible platform.
