Backyard Football Players

Backyard Football

4.32 / 5 - 75 votes

Backyard Football was the first game from the backyard franchise to feature real Pro players, as animated kids. Relax the Rules, But Count Your Players. Don’t worry about sticking with all the rules and positions you see on television. After all, a simple backyard pickup football game isn’t as complicated as a four-quarter game of tackle. Keep things lighter by playing two-hand touch, but make each play as simple or as in-depth as your group wants. Backyard Football is the only game along with Backyard Baseball 2001 that offers online play with players across the globe. Online play is hosted through the Junior Sports Network, online play that is only available for Windows users, since the network system does not support macintosh.

Description of Backyard Football

Here is the video game “Backyard Football”! Released in 1999 on Windows, it's still available and playable with some tinkering. It's a sports game, set in a football (american) and licensed title themes.

has anyone ran BFB 2002 successfully?

bobby2021-01-240 point

does anyone know if there's any way to save progress? ISO works great, but it 'installs' the game every single time upon bootup, so I can't do a season unless I play it all in one sitting

You don't have to use scummvm just run as administrator

You should pick me.

Could someone who knows how to use ScummVM show me how to make this work? I downloaded what I think is the right thing but I'm not great with computer stuff, just really feeling like playing the game of my childhood.
Message me on reddit u/gmil3548 if you can help me.

The game works fine. You have to use ScummVM to play it on modern computers. Just extract the iso from the zip, then extract the contents of the ISO to a folder. Install ScummVM and point it to the folder you extracted the ISO to.

I can't get the sound to work. Any ideas?

So everything runs fine but when I open the game again it wants to reinstall. Any suggestions?

Anyone have trouble with this download? I got it fired up, but once I started a game the screen would freeze on a corner of the field and nothing would happen. Had to close the game via Task Manager

I had it work fine with ScummVM, actually, so maybe there was a problem with your download? Go Bears.

Will this work with ScummVM I was unable to get this to work with Scumm. I think we need a windows version to work like with Backyard Baseball.
