Tentang Permainan Ini

Kickabout is online, first-person arcade football (soccer): you ARE one player on the pitch, and your body picks the touch — foot low, chest mid, head high. It runs on rollback netcode for fair, in-sync play, so every touch, curl and last-ditch tackle comes down to you. Find a match, jump in, play.

Most football games hand you a whole team from a camera in the sky. Kickabout hands you one player — you — in the thick of it, everything through your own eyes, in fast indoor 5-a-side-style matches. Your body reads the ball against your eyeline and picks the contact automatically — no fiddly button combos. You look, you move, you commit.

Touch, spin and timing separate a scuffed clearance from a dipping finish under the bar — simple tools, deep mastery.

• Dribble — sprint to knock it a clear stride ahead, or keep it close off the sprint.

• Charged curve — hold to charge, strike off-centre for sidespin and bend it into the corner; backspin and topspin shape the flight.

• Chest & cushion — pop a dropping ball up for a volley, or hold a dead touch to kill it stone dead.

• Headers & volleys — power a header at head height, or strike straight out of the air.

• Slide tackles — timed right, they actually clear the ball, not nudge it.

Claim the keeper role on the team screen, pull on the gloves, and the game flips.

• Parry, catch and dive.

• Dive to reach mid-height out to your side, or slide low when you aim down.

• Rush off your line to smother a striker through on goal.

• Rooms your way — create, browse and join lobbies, from 1v1 up to 7v7.

• Positional voice chat — push-to-talk with a clear mic indicator; teammates sound like they're where they actually are.

• Host tools — manage players and issue bans.

• Four arena sizes — Small, Medium, Large and XL.

• Closed-door indoor — turf, walls, trusses and rounded goals, no crowd: a tight, focused kickabout space.

• Your rules — pick match length (3/5/10/15 min) and goal limit (3/5/10).

• Golden Goal — level at the final whistle? Sudden death settles it.

• Kickoff formations — line up with a dedicated keeper slot.

Every goal cuts to a TV-style replay — the build-up, the strike in slow motion, broadcast angle cuts (wide, behind-goal, low) tracking the ball into the net, clock paused. Seen enough? Press to vote-skip.

• Training — five ramping drills (Range, Curve, Keeper, Ball Control and Aerials) with on-screen coaching cues.

• Free Play — an offline sandbox: just you and the ball, no rules.

• Fully rebindable keyboard-and-mouse controls, grouped into tidy settings tabs.

• On-screen control hints with mouse-button icons that update the moment you rebind.
