Gridiron4 Founder Membership £40.00
Building from the legacy of Gridiron3 this project is about creating an immersive kind of football game. One where you’re not chasing weekly luck, but shaping a team over time. Where your decisions ripple across seasons. Where players grow, systems evolve, and rivalries mean something because the people on the other sideline are real.
In this game, you are the head coach.
You’ll build your franchise from the ground up:
Develop players into stars, define how your team plays, and commit to a strategic identity that separates you from the rest of the league. Every coach brings a philosophy. Every matchup becomes a chess match.
Founders aren’t just funding development — they’re helping define the game. Early members will shape mechanics, balance, features, and league structure as the project evolves. This is a living system, built alongside the community that will eventually compete inside it.
Backing the project secures your place in that world.
Your support helps turn the vision into reality, and includes your own team, a season playing the Beta version, and your first full season once the league launches fully.
Coaches will also receive a G4 Founder badge on their profile page.
About Development & Timelines
This project is actively in development, and some systems will evolve as we build, test, and learn.
The core vision is clear: a coach-driven football game focused on long-term strategy, player development, and community competition. The exact details of how we get there will improve over time with your input.
Rather than locking in rigid promises too early, we’re committed to transparency, regular updates, and building something solid instead of rushing something fragile.
Backing the project means supporting that process — and being part of shaping the final result.
