Day Zero
We’re building an AR mobile game built around the World Cup. You walk around the real world, you catch footballers from history, you build your country’s all-time XI, and you play matches against other users’ teams.
This is day zero. The repo is a monorepo at github.com/therealsiege/footy. The plan is to ship for WC 2030 — that gives us four years to do this properly.
The stack:
- Unity 2023 LTS for the mobile client, AR Foundation for cross-platform AR
- Supabase for backend (Postgres, auth, edge functions, realtime)
- Astro for this marketing site
- Vertex Imagen 3 for the art pipeline, with style-reference image locking to keep ~200 player cards visually consistent
Coming up in Phase 1: monorepo restructure, Supabase schema, Unity hello-AR scene, art pipeline north-star, first ten cards rendered. ~3 months.
We’ll post here as we build. The waitlist is open. Come along.
