The group is ancient. I don't think they've played since 08/09.

Seraphimred ended up running it. But it died. I think once custom leagues start up again it could easily start up again. Could be great fun. I think it was an all human team league. IIRC

Player portraits and icons are easy, however a bit big for a standard sized client.

No idea who half these guys were http://www.spriters-resource.com/pc_computer/speedball2hd/sheet/58840/ Were there more options for the PC?

Icons

Nah, they're the portraits from the new SpeedBall 2 HD on Steam. Looks pretty good tbh, came out last year. Not great reviews though. The one I mentioned that was terrible was SpeedBall 2 Tournament a couple of years earlier. 3d and just bad. No-where near as good as Dead Ball Zone on the PS1 which was 3d and really fun.

The latest SpeedBall 2 HD is a direct update/remake of Brutal Deluxe.

You can always play the default pitch Russo. You can also toggle between icons and markers.


Maybe we should add a custom pitch that is optimized for color blind people, and always available?

Based on those portraits, it seems you need to be about 40 before you start your SpeedBall career. Wink

I wish people would read Sad

Please check my blog, there are instructions there for how to display the 'Basic Pitch' which was designed with colour blind people in mind. Basically what you describe is already implemented.
