Hi everyone
Yesterday there was the first of a series of updates focussing on improving the match experience. The tactics interface along with the squad page have been completely overhauled. Included as part of the overhaul was the new tactical instructions to assign set piece taker/roles.
Lots of the visual elements associated with the match experience were improved including the addition of an event timeline.
The Changelog for the update can be found here:

90 Minute Fever also exited Steam Early Access yesterday. We just wanted to say a big thank you to all of you who have been with us through the Early Access journey. It has certainly taken us a lot longer than we first envisioned, and taken more than a few iterations of league, fixture, transfer and other systems. But we have finally got to the stage where the core gameplay mechanics are balanced, engaging, fair, fun and without fundamental flaws. The barrier to entry for new users is no longer unreasonably high. The game rewards skillful gameplay and has an extremely high skill ceiling. We believe the game is a fantastic option compared to all the other online football management games out there. Thank you for your feedback, both positive and negative, it has been invaluable and continues to be so.
There is a lot more we wish to add to the game. We are currently working on a club records area, competition records, revamping the rankings, access to additional match stats including a wide array of live player stats during matches, further enhancing the new set pieces functionality to include the ability to change the assignments during matches, as well as a match engine logic update.
What can I do to help? We’d love some help in three areas:
- We are likely to have many new users asking questions on Discord. Any friendly help and advice you are able to provide would make a real difference to their initial experience of the game.
- Help us rank higher on the magical Steam algorithm! Spread the word! We’ll be regularly posting on social media (Facebook, Twitter) going forwards so if you share/like/retweet/etc our posts that would really help.
- If anyone has the time and willingness to help with translation of the game into more languages that would be hugely appreciated. Currently the game is fully playable in English, Greek and Brazilian Portuguese, but we would love to make the game more accessible to people who speak other languages. Having additional languages can help a lot, we’ve seen a real surge of new user signups from Brazil and Portugal in recent months. If you are able to help in this area, please look in the translations area of the official Discord server. We’re looking to make this process a little easier than it has been to date, and we’ll be posting updated information on this in the next couple days.
Thank you again for being with us on our epic journey. Good luck for the seasons ahead!
