Free Manager Project

Our project is to develop a football manager network game in GPL for Linux. You will find on that page news about the progression, sources of stable versions and screenshots. You may contact us for any suggestions.

FreeManager is a football manager network game : several players chose a team and lead them in a championship. The game has a client-server architecture and uses a MySQL database and a Gtk+ interface. As this is actually our 2nd year project in school, it's in French, but future versions will be released in English.
