2 Minute Drill: building a browser football strategy game around the last two minutes
Disclosure: I built 2 Minute Drill.
2 Minute Drill is a browser American football strategy game based on the final two minutes of real NFL games.
Why the last two minutes?
That is where clock management, timeouts and play-calling decide games. Compressing the game to this window makes every decision matter.
Design notes
- Real game situations give each scenario context fans recognise.
- Strategy over twitch: you choose plays, not execute them.
- Short sessions, so one scenario takes only a few minutes.
