"Mini Soccer Duel" is a fast and fun 2-player football game. Player 1 uses WASD, Player 2 uses the arrow keys. Score more goals than your opponent before time runs out!
The ball reacts to your movement, so timing and positioning are key. Matches are quick, intense, and perfect for playing against a friend.
During the game, random power-ups appear on the field. Pick them up and activate them with a double-tap forward move. Each power-up can turn the game around:
Speed – move faster than your opponent
Freeze – stop your opponent for a short time
Power Shot – shoot the ball much faster
Shrink Goal – make your own goal smaller
If the score is tied at the end, the game goes into overtime with Golden Goal – next goal wins!
With a colorful field and a cheering pixel crowd, every match feels like a mini stadium battle.
**What's new in this version:**
Before each match, you now choose your game mode – play 1v1 against a friend, or face an Easy or Hard computer opponent. You can also pick the time of day: a classic daytime match on a bright green pitch, or a floodlight game with a darkened field and stadium lanterns in every corner.
On the field, a pitch invader occasionally runs in and kicks the ball in a random direction – chaos guaranteed. The ball now leaves a motion trail behind it, showing its speed and direction at a glance.
Scoring a goal triggers the full stadium experience: the fans of the scoring team light pyro flares in their team color, a big animated GOAL! text zooms onto the screen, and the camera shakes with the impact.
Players are now fully animated pixel art sprites with smooth walking cycles and directional facing – they turn and react as you move around the pitch.
At the end of the match, a detailed statistics screen shows shots on goal, power-ups collected, and a full breakdown of every power-up type used by each player.
