Football Supremo is out now in early access. Join the journey, shape the future, and get the game before the price goes up.
A management game that respects the hour you have, not the six you do not. Everything below is in the build you can buy today.
Watch your tactics play out at whatever pace suits you. Sit through the full ninety for the games that matter, drop in for the highlights when time is short, or skip straight to the final whistle and pick the story out of the stats afterwards.
Every player has detailed technical, physical and mental attributes, positional data, contract info and performance history. Scout and sign from a massive worldwide database, from global superstars to hidden gems in lower leagues. All the depth, none of the data overload.
Set your formation with an intuitive drag-and-drop editor. Choose your shape, assign positions, adjust mentality and playing style, then watch your vision come alive on the pitch. No sub-menus inside sub-menus. Just you, your squad, and a pitch.
Take charge of every part of your club, from the squad and the finances to the staff around you. Assemble your squad, manage your budget, improve your players, and keep the fans happy. Everything you need to run a football club, all in one clean interface.
More to come while the game is in early access, the development blog carries what has landed and what is next.

Using AI in game development
AI is a hot (and contentious) topic in game development at the moment, so here's where I stand. What I use, how I use it, and where I draw the line.

Journey To The 3D Match Engine
Legacy Manager ships with a full 3D engine and multiple camera angles, but that wasn't always the plan. Here's a quick look at how we got from initial 2D concepts to the full 3D engine.

Building a Game UI You Actually Want to Use
A beautiful interface isn't a luxury, it's a necessity. We spent a lot of time making sure Legacy Manager looks and feels premium, because you shouldn't need a tutorial to navigate a football game.

Hello, World! Announcing Legacy Manager
I'm building a football management game. One that's designed to be fun to play, rather than feel like a job. Its coming soon and you should give it a try.

25 March 2026
When I started work on Legacy Manager, "vibe-coding" wasn't really a thing. While early versions of Chat GPT were around and could help with stuff like "here is some code, work out why it's not working as it should", there wasn't anything powerful enough to just give a specification to and get a working game back.
Even now, using the most powerful Claude/Codex models available, you're not going to get a working game of this complexity out of it.
However the more powerful these models get, the more people assume that everything has been spat out of one. So here's where and how I use AI at the moment.
I've already covered in depth the design process that went in to developing the UI for Legacy Manager, from the early web-based game to the current fully desktop version. If you've not seen it, check it out at https://legacymanager.net/development/building-a-ui-you-actually-want-to-use
None of the UI design process for the layout, components, logos or graphics was done by AI. I hired a guy with as history of doing game re-design concepts, and worked with him to build the first UI. I then itterated on that myself, you can see the steps and thought process behind it in detail in that article.
The logo was also designed by someone I hired online.
The players shown on the pitch were designed by a 3D designer I found online. I sent him examples and a spec, he built the player models for me based on those. I then use a variety of tools to add the animations I need to the models.
The match engine was coded from scratch, originally in PHP as I was designing a web based game, and later converted to Rust as I switched to a desktop game. The logic is still designed by hand for every feature.
All the articles on this website were written by me, and all the stuff I share on social media or via newsletters is by me. In the game, news articles etc are all hand-written.
The Legacy Manager database contains more than 45,000 players at the moment, and that will continue to grow. The full database was built from various football data sources that I subscribe to, using real-world data to build profiles for all of the players. I then ran analysis each player to set attributes based on the data collected
I have a huge number of components that were all hand coded. Things content boxes, info panels, lists, tables, etc. When I need a component adding to a page in the app (for example I need a league table inserting on a club profile page) I tell Claude to add it based on the existing hand-coded components. It knows my design rules, it then adds the content to the page for me based on those.
I've generated the hero image for the front page of the website using AI tools to quickly get something published. The same one is also used on the "Introducing Legacy Manager" first blog post. It'll be swapped for custom graphic soon.
I have a variety of auto-complete tools that help me when I'm writing code, including Claude Opus and GitHub Copilot. In-line code completion was a thing long before these new "vibe-coding" tools existed, and i've made use of them for 20+ years. So has everyone else writing code. As they've got more powerful I've let them do more, but none of the code exists from pure "write me a feature that does X", instead I start writing and accept recomendations where they make sense.
The thing I miss most working alone is the ability to discuss ideas or logic with colleagues. I use Claude in the same way I would have done with people when working in a team. Things like "I'm working on feature X, here's how I plan to implement it, do you have any suggestions or thoughts?"
Sometimes it gives me ideas of ways I could do things better, other times it just helps me gather and arrange my thoughts.
This website was thrown together in an hour by Claude, and I don't really care about that. It's not a product, it's just somewhere to post my thoughts and link to the game. There is nothing complex here, it's a basic Laravel website using generic styling that I brought over from the game.
I have a pretty large test suite to make sure I don't break features as I add new ones or work on existing ones. Some of this was written by hand, especially in the early days, but recently I've started using Claude to add more testing functionality as I add new features.
While the player models in the game were custom designed by a guy I hired, the stadiums at the moment were not. The initial ones are basic (a few set sizes and customised colours) and were built using generative AI tools. I have big plans for the stadium designs in the future, but the reality is that these won't be re-designed by hand in the foreseeable future. I simply don't have the skills on that side of things to do it myself, and haven't yet found someone who can work with me to supply exactly what I need. If you know someone who specialises in this, please put them in touch with me.
Once I had the database in place, I had some missing values, and used AI tools to fill in the gaps. Mostly this was finding the ethnicity or date of birth for players that didn't have one set in any of my data sources.
I also used it, alongside real data, to help me set reputations for players. Reputations are built on a number of things including number of trophies won, clubs played for, competitions played in and recent season statistics. However I then ran the reputations values through some AI tools to see if I'd over/under ranked any players significantly and used its feedback to improve these somewhat.
Yes, I use AI tools in some places and will continue to do so. No, the game is not "vibe-coded", and with the current state of the tools, I don't think it would be possible to do so. If I've missed anything or my process changes, I'll update this article in the future. But feel free to reach out if you have questions.
How to reach us, what we do with what you tell us, the rules of the competition, when you can have your money back, and what you pay.
Got a question, a feature request, or just want to tell us about your latest title win? We are all ears.

This policy explains what Funny Old Games ("we", "us", "our") does with information about you when you visit footballsupremo.com, buy Football Supremo, or play it. We are the data controller for that information.
For anything about this policy or your information, email help@footballsupremo.com.
Our online shop is run by Paddle.com, which sells the game as our reseller and Merchant of Record. Paddle takes your payment under its own privacy policy, and we never see or store your card details.
Paddle passes us what we need to fulfil your order: your email address, the country you bought from, what you bought, and the order reference. We use it to send you your licence key and download, to answer support enquiries, and to handle refunds. Our lawful basis is that we need it to perform our contract with you. We also keep a record of the sale because tax law requires us to.
When you activate Football Supremo, the game sends us your licence key and a device identifier, and it checks in from time to time to confirm the key is still valid. The device identifier is a one-way code calculated from an identifier your computer already holds; it is not your hardware serial number, and we cannot work backwards from it to your machine.
We use this to give you the game you paid for, to keep a key from being shared beyond the number of computers allowed, and to stop a key working after a refund or a reversed payment. Our lawful basis is performing our contract with you, together with our legitimate interest in preventing our game from being distributed without payment. This is necessary for the service you asked for, so it is not something you can switch off while using the game.
To see that the game is working as it should, and to work out what to improve, Football Supremo sends us statistics about how it is used. This is on by default, and you can switch it off at any time in the game's settings menu. If you switch it off, the game stops sending, and it keeps working exactly as before.
What is sent:
What is not sent: your name, your email address, your manager or save names, anything you have typed, your files, or your IP address. Our server records a one-way code made from your IP address to spot abuse of the endpoint, never the address itself.
We use these statistics only to check the game is behaving and to improve it, and we do not share them with anyone else except someone helping us make those improvements. We do not connect them to your order, your email address or your licence key, and we do not use them to build a profile of you, to target advertising, or to make any decision about you. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in keeping the game working properly and making it better, and the collection is permitted for statistical purposes under the rules on storage and access technologies.
This statistics system exists for the early access period. It is removed from the game entirely at the 1.0 release.
If you email us or reach us through social media, we keep your message, your address and anything else you choose to tell us, so we can answer you and handle any follow-up. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in responding to people who contact us, and performing our contract where the message is about an order.
Our web host records ordinary server logs, including the address your request came from, for security and to keep the site running. The website sets two cookies, one to keep your session and one to protect forms against cross-site request forgery. Both are needed for the site to work, so they do not require your consent.
We do not use advertising cookies, third-party analytics, tracking pixels or social media trackers on this website.
We share information only with the companies that help us run the business, and only with what they need:
We do not sell your information, and we do not share it for anyone else's marketing.
Some of these companies process information outside the United Kingdom. Where that happens, we rely on the UK's adequacy regulations for that country, or on the International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum to the Standard Contractual Clauses, so that your information keeps the same protection it has here. Email us if you would like a copy of the safeguards for a particular provider.
You have the right to ask us for a copy of the information we hold about you, to have it corrected, to have it deleted, to restrict what we do with it, to object to processing we carry out for our legitimate interests, and to receive it in a portable form. Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time, and that does not affect anything done before you withdrew it.
To exercise any of these, email help@footballsupremo.com. We will answer within one month.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, please tell us first so we can put it right — you have a right to complain to us. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint, or by calling 0303 123 1113.
Football Supremo can be played by people of any age, and we design for that: the game asks for no account, no name and no email address, we collect as little as we can, and nothing we collect is used for advertising or profiling. Where we rely on consent for anyone under 13, we need a parent or guardian to give it. If you are a parent and have a question about what your child's copy of the game sends us, please contact us.
Information is held on servers in the United Kingdom and Europe, reached over encrypted connections, with access limited to the people who need it. Identifiers that come from the game are one-way codes rather than the underlying values.
We update this policy when what we do changes, and we change the "Last updated" date at the top when we do. If a change matters to you — a new purpose, or a new company seeing your information — we will say so clearly rather than quietly editing the page.
Questions about this policy: help@footballsupremo.com.
Last updated: 28 September 2026
These terms cover the footballsupremo.com website and the Football Supremo game ("the game"), both run by Funny Old Games ("we", "us", "our"). They form the agreement between us when you buy or use the game, so please read them. Nothing here takes away the rights the law gives you as a consumer.
Football Supremo is made and sold by Funny Old Games. The quickest way to reach us about anything — an order, a fault, a question about these terms — is help@footballsupremo.com.
Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com, which is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle takes your payment, sends your receipt, and handles order enquiries and returns, so your purchase is also covered by Paddle's own buyer terms. We make and support the game itself.
The price is worked out at checkout for the country you are in, in your own currency where possible and including any tax due where you live. You see the full amount before you pay. Your contract to buy is made when Paddle confirms your order.
Refunds are set out in our Refund Policy, which forms part of these terms.
When you buy Football Supremo we give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and play the game on computers you own or use, for your own private, non-commercial enjoyment. You do not own the software itself; we keep the copyright and everything else in it.
You may not sell, rent, sub-licence or give away the game or a licence key, publish copies of it, or pass off any part of it as your own. Nothing in these terms affects the rights the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 gives you to observe, study or decompile the software where that Act allows it.
Your purchase comes with a licence key. The key is yours alone: please do not share it. To keep keys from being passed around, a key can be used on a limited number of computers at a time, and you can free up a slot yourself when you change machine.
If a purchase is refunded, or a payment is reversed through a chargeback, the licence granted by that purchase ends and its key stops working. If you break these terms seriously — for example by selling or publishing your key — we may withdraw it. We will not withdraw a key for any other reason.
If we ever stop running the service that checks licence keys, we will release an update to the game that removes the need for it, so a copy you have paid for keeps working.
Football Supremo is in early access: it is playable, it is not finished, and it will change while we develop it. You are buying the game as it stands on the day you buy it, together with the updates we release afterwards.
We describe on this website what is in the game now and what we are working on. What we describe as planned is our intention rather than a commitment to a date, and plans can change. Where we have said something is already in the game, it should be there — if it is not, that is a fault, and section 7 applies.
We may update the game to fix problems, improve it and add to it. Updates are part of what you bought, and an update will not leave the game failing to match how we described it. Where an update is needed to keep the game working properly, please install it; if you choose not to, we are not responsible for problems the update would have fixed.
Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 the game must be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described. Satisfactory quality is judged against how the game was described, including that it is in early access, and against its price.
If the game is faulty, tell us at help@footballsupremo.com. You are entitled to have it repaired or replaced — for a game that usually means a fix or an update — within a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience to you. If that is not possible, or does not happen in a reasonable time, you are entitled to a price reduction, which can be up to the full price depending on how serious the fault is. These rights sit alongside our Refund Policy and are not limited by it.
If we fail to keep to these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of that failure or of our failing to use reasonable care and skill. Loss or damage is foreseeable if it is obvious that it will happen, or if we both knew it might when you bought the game.
We do not exclude or limit our responsibility to you in any way where it would be unlawful to do so. That includes responsibility for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, and for your legal rights in relation to faulty digital content.
If defective digital content we have supplied damages a device or other digital content belonging to you, and this was caused by our failure to use reasonable care and skill, we will either repair the damage or pay you compensation.
We supply the game for private use. If you use it for any commercial purpose, we have no liability to you for loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption or loss of business opportunity.
If you send us ideas, bug reports or suggestions, you are giving us permission to use them in the game and in our other work, without owing you anything for it. You keep whatever rights you have in what you sent, and we will not claim you endorse the game.
Use the website lawfully. Do not attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of it, interfere with how it runs for other people, or use it to send anything unlawful or harmful.
We may change these terms for future purchases at any time, and the version published when you buy is the one that covers your purchase. We will only change the terms that apply to a purchase you have already made where we need to for legal, regulatory or security reasons, and we will tell you before we do. If such a change is to your disadvantage, you may end the agreement and, where you have not had the benefit of what you paid for, ask us for a refund of the part you have not used.
We may change, suspend or withdraw parts of the website, including for maintenance. This does not affect the game you have bought or your licence to play it.
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and proceedings may be brought in the courts of England and Wales. If you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may also bring proceedings in your own courts. If you live outside the United Kingdom, this choice of law does not take away any protection given to you by the law of the country you live in.

Last updated: 14 September 2026
This policy explains when you can get a refund for Football Supremo bought from footballsupremo.com. It sits alongside our Terms of Service, and nothing in it affects your legal rights as a consumer. In short:
Football Supremo is made by Funny Old Games. Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com, which is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle takes your payment, sends your receipt, handles order enquiries and returns, and pays out refunds. We look after the game itself, your licence key and technical support.
If something is wrong with the game (it will not start, it crashes, or your licence key will not activate) email help@footballsupremo.com. Most problems can be fixed quickly, and we would much rather get you playing. Please tell us:
We may ask for more, such as a log file, so we can reproduce the problem. Asking us first is simply the quickest route. It does not take away any of your rights.
You can have a full refund, for any reason, if both of these are true:
To ask, email us, or request a refund from Paddle at paddle.net. We check playtime against our licence records. This refund is there so you can make sure the game runs on your PC and is for you. If you have already had a refund for Football Supremo, we may turn down a refund on a later purchase.
Once a refund has been made, the licence key for that order is deactivated and the game will no longer run with it.
Outside that window we do not give refunds for a change of mind, for example because you are no longer enjoying the game or have simply played enough of it. If the game is faulty, section 6 applies instead.
Football Supremo is in early access. It is not finished, it will change as we develop it, and you may run into bugs. You are buying the game as it stands on the day you buy it, together with the updates we release, so please check what is in it before you buy; the development blog covers what has landed and what is next. Waiting for a planned feature is not, on its own, grounds for a refund outside section 3.
Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 the game must be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described. What counts as satisfactory takes into account how the game was described, including that it is in early access, and its price.
If the game is faulty:
These rights do not depend on the 14-day or 2-hour limits in section 3, and nothing in this policy limits them.
UK law usually gives you 14 days to cancel something you buy online. For a download, that right ends once the download starts, as long as you agreed at checkout to get the game straight away, acknowledged that you would lose the right to cancel, and were sent confirmation of that. The refund in section 3 is available either way.
Refunds are paid by Paddle, back to the payment method you used unless you agree otherwise, with no fee. They are made within 14 days of the refund being agreed or, if you cancel under section 7, within 14 days of you telling us. Your bank may take a few more days to show it.
If you live outside the UK, you may have further rights under the law where you live. This policy does not take them away.
We may update this policy from time to time and will change the "Last updated" date when we do. Your purchase is covered by the version in place on the day you bought.
For refunds, faults or anything else about the game, email help@footballsupremo.com. For receipts and payment questions, Paddle can also help at paddle.net.
There is one price for the game, and it is worked out for the country you are in. Our orders are handled by our online reseller, Paddle.com, which prices the game in your own currency where it can and adds the tax due where you live, such as VAT, GST or sales tax.
You will always see the full price, including tax, before you pay, and that is the amount you are charged. If your bank converts the payment from another currency, it may add its own fee.
Early access is the cheapest Football Supremo will be. The price rises when the game leaves early access.
Football Supremo is in early access. It is out, it is playable, and it is not finished. Here is what that means before you spend anything.
Full 2D matches, transfers, team training, leagues and cups from England (5 levels), France and Spain (both 2 levels).
A 3D match view is in progress, and is included as an optional "work in progress" setting. You will need to turn it on in the in-game settings menu, as it is not yet in a release-ready state.
The price is shown in your own currency where we can manage it. Your exact total, including any tax due where you live, is confirmed at checkout before you pay anything. Payment is handled by our reseller, Paddle.com.
