Development
The game was developed by American studio Digital Dreams Entertainment, led by Michael Mendheim, designer of the original Mutant League Football game. In 2013, Mendheim ran a Kickstarter campaign to fund the game's development, asking for $750,000. The project failed to reach its goal, but Mendheim persisted with the project. In 2017, a second Kickstarter campaign raised a more modest goal of $60,000.[3] Mendheim stated that due to the original funding failure the game will not have as much content as originally planned, and that the main purpose of the second Kickstarter was to fund development of online multiplayer.[4]
Gameplay
Mutant Football League is a violent, over-the-top interpretation of the game of football. It draws inspiration from the original Mutant League Football, as well as other games in the genre such as NFL Blitz.
The game features 7-on-7 action, with teams made up of various mutants, including Skeletal Deadheads, Monstrous Orcs, BruiserBots, Mutant-Humans, Hell-Spawned Demons, Rampaging Werewolves, and Criminal Aliens.[5] The fields are littered with obstacles, including buzzsaws and landmines. Players can call normal plays, as well as "dirty tricks", which include bribing the referee, and using a chainsaw to cut through the opposition.
Teams
Many of the teams are parodies of real-life NFL teams, with names like the Nuked London Hatriots and the Deadlanta Vultures. Many players likewise have humorous names spoofing real-life current and former NFL players, like Bomb Shady, Von Killer, Wham Neutron, Throb Bronkowski, Hatrick Myhomies, Ratspew Splattered, Cooper Pup, and Airbourne Dodgers.
