Developed for Fox Sports Australia, NRL on FOX Live Kick was a follow up port of our wildly successful Fox Footy Live Kick game that we did for the AFL. One of the first TV companion games, it was truly a revolutionary concept for it's time.
Live Kick is a rich kicking game that integrates data from live NRL matches to allow players to take the same kicks on goal, bombs and field goals as their team takes on the field. The game takes location co-ordinates of where kicks were taken on the field and places them on the game screen for the player to try to score. Players choose which team they want to kick for and every kick from every live match is available to take. When they take a kick they earn points for them and their team.
Live Kick also features a virtual currency, Footy Dollars. Players earn Footy Dollars when their team in the live match scores points and they spend their Footy Dollars to take kicks in the game. Footy Dollars are also available via free voucher codes distributed by the app sponsors, Gilette and Foxtel on their websites. The vouchers drive Live Kick players to web players where they can see a specific sponsor message.
Live Kick also featured a training mode, latest Fox Sports news, display advertising integration, leaderboards and a Fox Sports TV guide.
As lead developer, I was responsible for the majority of aspects in the game including visual design, UI design, programming, code base, game play, sounds, music, app flow and more.
