As the title says, if you landed on this post you’ve probably heard of Gameplay Football. In short, this is an abandoned project that intended to create a a quality open source football simulator, something that in my humble opinion is missing in the OS community.

From time to time I like to search the web for any possible update regarding this project only to land on the same reddit comment suggesting that’s an almost impossible task to do.

I’m a frontend developer who has a general knowledge in non frontend languages but overall a passionate programmer that would love to contribute to a project like this. Unfortunately I’m no even close to be somehow skilled enough in the language this project was written but I’m definitely willing to learn.

I’d love to bring this project back to life since over the last 5-10 years, the main sports game such as FIFA (Now EAFC) or PES (Now efootball) are IMHO getting worst on every release. However, in order to achieve this I’ll definitely need help from the community. It’s clearly an impossible task for me alone, at least at this moment of my life.

I’d love to know if the community is willing to contribute to this. If so, I could use this post as the initiative to create a discord server dedicated to address everything related to the development and continuity of this project.

Thanks for making it this far!
