Mutant Football League Doesn't Make Kickstarter Goal
Mike Mendheim's attempt to resurrect EA's old Mutant League Football via Kickstarter as Mutant Football League has failed its funding goal.
The game raised $141,821 of its $750,000 goal and attainted 1,105 backers.
Mendheim said via Twitter, "We will be back my friends. Not sure how, when.. but were coming."
For more on the game, take a look at our interview with Mendheim in the October issue of Game Informer.

Our Take:
It's unfortunate for Mendheim and backers of the project, but I guess it's a case of how people remember something fondly, but it turns out that perhaps they're not as enamored with it as they think.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
