WILL YOU be the FIRST GotG CHAMPION?

It's Kickoff Time!

Are you ready to OUTDRAFT, OUTDESIGN and OUTCOACH 31 other teams, be the first ever GotG Champion and stake your claim to Greatness?

We are getting ready to release the most complete version to date.

This version supports

  • 32 teams
  • 17 game schedule
  • Regular season and Playoff stats
  • Multiplayer (32 coaches) Draft (snake and traditional)
  • Playoff Bracket
  • Franchise

The OFFICIAL GotG LEAGUE - here’s what we need:

30 coaches (teams) willing to dedicate a couple months of their time to play the game!

  • We understand and know that knowing league members can make things a little more “fun”. Because we are all just starting out and do not yet know each other we are proposing the following:
    - If you want to join the league and currently own the game and you know of a friend or two who would also like to join the league but hasn’t yet gotten the game, we will give them a complimentary Steam Key.
    - If you’re new to GotG and do not yet own it, this is your lucky day – we will give you a copy of the game for free (limited to 1 per person and only until we have a full league or the deadline to join the league of 01/25/2023 passes)
  • If we do not have 30 coaches by the end of the deadline, we will fill in the slots with NPCs

Time Table:

  • 01/25/2023 Deadline to join the league (first come basis)
  • 02/01/2023 Deadline to pick team names (first come)
    - You can pick any name you want
    - The players drafted are FICTION – with the Official GotG League, we are not going to use “real NFL” players for obvious licensing concerns
    - Trust us when we say that you will develop the same level of enthusiasm for these players that you do for NFLers
  • 02/01/2023 Deadline for THE LEAGUE to CHOOSE DRAFT START date
    The online draft will be 56 rounds and take a while (probably the course of a few days)
    - The date will be what the majority votes for because we would hope to have as many online for the first few rounds as possible
    - Because we are still developing some features – there will be NO trading of picks, i.e. you cannot trade your 1st for someone’s 2nd and 3rd etc.
  • 02/01/2023 Determine draft order (snake draft)
  • 02/08/2023 DEADLINE Determine KICKOFF
    - Remember that you will need time to develop a playbook
    - We will release some of the plays of the default teams to help you build your PBs out to get you up and running faster
    - The sooner the draft takes place the sooner teams have their players and are able to being creating PBs with those players.
    - Remember that offensive plays can be affected by the speed of your players – i.e., if you create a pass play to a 75 sp player and you now have a 100sp player there – the play will need to be adjusted manually to compensate. So you can use existing plays you have, you just might have to tweak them to account for the differing speeds you might draft – same with QB arm strength.

This is essentially a very large Beta test of the game. It’s for FUN! Do not join if you are going to get wrapped up in winning it all. There are going to be flaws that we will fix on the fly if we can. Some might have to be pushed off until the next release. However, there will be a trophy for the winner of the league and we will find a way to share our gratitude with each coach in some way.

Please reach out with any questions and or if you want to JOIN!

Community27 Jan 2024An Important Update on GotG DevelopmentHello, dear players and supporters! I wanted to take a moment to share a personal update regarding the development of 'Greats of the Gridiron'. As the sole developer behind this project, I'm faced with unique challenges and responsibilities, and it's important for me to keep you all in the loop. Here's what's been happening: Decreased Interest: I've observed a dip in interest towards our game.…Game update11 May 2023Minor UpdateDear coaches: A small update to fix a couple of minor issues and some other items: · Update content default db with updated template binary format · Allow to select specific playbooks to reassign players (was formerly only all playbooks) · Fix emblems for dedicated server Season Standings menu · Fix edit play incorrect invalid play name error (preventing from changing other play info) · Clean u…Game update23 Mar 2023Update: Tweaked how M2M Coverage WorksMan-to-Man Coverage The M2M Coverage is working with a couple of caveats 1. we disabled the "assigned" double coverage ability - double coverages still happen, they are done by having "extra" defensive players who have an "open" M2M assignment and cannot find a free receiver to cover. 2. we changed some of the priority progressions that defensive players make in order to determine who they are…
