Super Liquid Soccer

Your striker runs like his legs are made of jelly, and so does everyone else's. Super Liquid Soccer is a free 7-a-side football game you play in your browser, with floppy physics that turn every tackle into a tumble. You pick a national team, play quick friendlies or a full tournament, and try to steer the ball into the net before your players fall over.

Main Controls

• Move: W, A, S, D
• Pass: M
• Shoot: J
• Chip: L
• Through pass: I
• Switch player: Q or E
• Sprint: P or O

How It Works

Liquid Soccer plays like a normal match until the players move. Every body is loose and wobbly, so a sprint can end in a slide and a header can go anywhere. Passing is the steady part: a short pass with M keeps the ball with your team, and a through pass with I sends it ahead into space for a runner.

Matches are 7 against 7, made by the indie studio Punyrobot. You choose a country and play a friendly, or enter a World Cup, a Women's World Cup or the Chumps League. Penalty shootouts have their own mode, where you take the shots and also try to save them.

1. Pick a mode and a national team.
2. Move your player with W, A, S, D.
3. Press Q or E to switch to the player nearest the ball.
4. Pass with M or play a through ball with I.
5. Sprint with P or O to get past a defender.
6. Shoot with J, or chip the keeper with L.

What Makes It Stand Out

• Ragdoll players. Every run, tackle and shot wobbles, so no two goals look alike.
• 7-a-side matches. Smaller teams leave more space and more chances.
• Four ways to play. Friendly, World Cup, Women's World Cup and Chumps League.
• A penalty mode. You take the kicks and dive for the saves.
• Real football controls. Pass, through pass, chip and sprint each have their own key.

Getting Started

• Start with a friendly. It's the quickest way to learn the controls before a tournament.
• Switch players often. Q and E stop you chasing the ball with someone who is too far away.
• Pass more than you dribble. Wobbly players lose the ball when they run too long.
• Try the chip near the box. L lifts the ball over a keeper who comes out.

Going Further

Goals come from space, not from skill moves. A through pass with I into an open lane beats running at a defender, because a sprinting floppy player is easy to knock over. Save sprints for the last few steps before a shot. In penalty shootouts, change where you aim each time, and when it's your turn in goal, commit to a side early.

Mistakes Worth Avoiding

• Sprinting everywhere. Your player tumbles more and loses the ball.
• Never switching players. You end up chasing with the wrong one.
• Shooting from far out. Wobbly shots rarely find the corner.
• Forgetting the chip. A keeper off his line is an easy goal.

Final Thoughts

This is football for laughing at your own goals as much as celebrating them. Skip it if you want realistic matches. Play Super Liquid Soccer for one friendly, and the first goal that bounces in off a falling defender will tell you if it's your kind of game.
