v3.6 was about the world reacting to you — DeckTalk put fans, pundits, and rivals in your mentions. v3.7 is about everything that happens when you put the phone down. Your private life, the people around you, and the shape of your career from your first season to your last.
Dating App
New SystemDeckBall now has a full dating and relationship layer. Swipe through profiles, start a conversation, send gifts, and keep a relationship alive over the course of a career. It runs on its own screen with its own art and background, and it ties back into the rest of the game — your private life is now part of the story DeckTalk and the press get to talk about.
- Swipe-based profile discovery
- Chat, gifting, and ongoing relationship state
- Dedicated UI with custom backgrounds and art
NPC Relationships & Moods
New SystemThe people in your world are no longer flat. Every NPC now carries a relationship value and a mood — happy, neutral, suspicious, or angry — and they interact with you based on it. Some warm up to you, some keep their distance, and how you treat them over time decides which.
- Per-NPC relationship tracking
- Four mood states: happy / neutral / suspicious / angry
- Interactions that change based on how an NPC feels about you
The Career Arc
New ContentA career now has a real shape. You start as a young prospect, climb to your peak, and eventually close it out — and the game marks every stage. Your profile photo even ages with you: a young face up to 21, your prime from 22 to 29, and a veteran look from 30 on.
Seasons end with a Gala — an awards and highlights screen that celebrates the year. When it's all over, a dedicated Retirement screen gives your career a proper closing scene, and a detailed Career Statistics modal lets you look back on everything you achieved.
- Age-based profile photos: young (≤21) → peak (22–29) → veteran (≥30)
- Season-end Gala with awards and highlights
- Retirement screen — a closing scene for the end of a career
- Career Statistics modal with a full career summary
17 Match Action Scenes
VisualsThe biggest visual leap in DeckBall yet. 17 hand-drawn action scenes are now wired directly to match moments — a header, a free kick, a dribble, a nutmeg, a long-range shot, a tackle, a block, a penalty, a goal, conceding, losing the ball, a keeper save, and more. When something happens in a match, you see it.
Kits are colored dynamically: shirt, shorts, and socks all take your team's colors, and on the
base_17 scene your opponent shows up in their own. The result screen
was rebuilt from scratch — full-bleed, uncropped artwork with a blurred fill behind it, a cinematic gradient,
an entry animation, and a shadowed, glowing title. It's responsive across every screen size.
- 17 action scenes tied to live match events
- Dynamic kit coloring for both your team and the opponent
- Fully redesigned, cinematic result screen
Cleats System
New SystemA new cleats system feeds directly into your progression and your odds on the pitch. Eight cleat models are available to buy with in-game cash or gems, from the basic Standard Cleats meant for daily training and early-career play up to higher-end options. The boots you wear are now a real part of how you build your player.
- 8 cleat models in the catalog
- Purchasable with cash or gems
- Direct impact on progression and in-match success chance
Indonesian Support
LocalisationDeckBall is now fully playable in Indonesian, translated end to end with a complete language pack. That brings the total to 8 supported languages.
- Indonesian (ID) — full game content
- Total language count: 8
In-Game Menu
A new in-game menu (InGameMenu) brings the core actions together in one place, so you're not hunting across screens mid-session.
Standings & Transfer Screens
Two new dedicated screens: a full league standings table and a transfer offers view, so you can read the table and weigh offers without leaving the flow.
Micro-Events & Reworked Events
The event system got a rework, plus a new layer of smaller micro-events that fill the gaps between the big story beats and keep a season feeling busy.
Radio Music
Nine new radio tracks were added, giving the game its own soundtrack to sit under the action.
New Art Pack
A large batch of fresh art: 38 cards, 8 cleats, 26 lifestyle items, and new backgrounds for wins, draws, losses, dating, the intro, and the social feed.
Cinematic Result Screen
The post-match result screen now shows full, uncropped artwork over a blurred fill with a cinematic gradient and an entry animation — responsive on every screen size.
-
Modular Hub — The Hub screen was broken into modular components
(
StandingsSheet,TransferModal,HubComponents,hubShared) for cleaner maintenance and better performance. - Store & game logic — A large update to the game logic and store (+1,100 lines) covering the economy, career progression, and the national team engine.
- check_locales script — A new script that flags missing translations before they ship.
-
Cleanup — Removed the old
src/design/prototype and migration folder. - Result screen fixes — Fixed aspect-ratio and responsive issues on the result screen (cropping and unwanted gaps).
- Version bump — v3.6 → v3.7.
The life-sim layer has a lot of room left in it. Now that NPCs hold opinions and the dating app is live, the next step is deeper narrative threads that pull those systems, DeckTalk, and your on-pitch career into the same storyline. Performance tuning on older Android devices stays on the list too.
If you're jumping into v3.7, run a career all the way through — the age-based portraits, the Gala, and the retirement screen are best experienced as one arc.
