This allowed the developers to simulate human movement in real time, offering more realistic animations than canned animations and making all the characters using Euphoria fully interactive.
The developers used this to enhance the interactions between players. The use of this engine and it's variability has resulted in many YouTube videos showcasing physics errors, with players taking part in extremely violent collisions or making catches, runs and throws that would otherwise be regarded as superhuman. Through its use in Backbreaker, the Euphoria engine proved itself to be effective in many aspects of football video games. Although not perfect, many tackles look realistic to what you might see during a football game in real life, as well as passes from the quarterback while being tackled or catches being made while the receiver is contacted by the defender.
The majority of other football games would be forced to revert to a pre-rendered animation , not allowing the quarterback to release the pass before falling to the ground, or likewise with the receiver making a catch.
Shortcomings of the Euphoria engine in a sports game were also showcased in Backbreaker. When there is a fumble in a crowded area of the field, NPCs will commonly crowd around the ball, all attempting to pick it up at the same time. This caused the physics engine to knock over many players, who then had contact with other players, creating a domino effect of players tripping or falling to the ground; all while the ball is still loose on the field.
There are also difficulties between the regulations of the game of football, and the real-time physics engine. Players can often interfere with receivers to keep them from catching the ball without referees calling penalties. Kickers and Quarterbacks can also be contacted well after they have gotten rid of the ball a major penalty against the defender who makes contact in all levels of football without any repercussions. Holding down the right trigger on a respective console, you'll go into "aggressive mode" where you can run into a group of NPC s and stiff-arm them out of your way.
However, while doing so, you'll have to use the A button X on PS3 to switch hands in order to make sure the proper arm is not holding the ball, and free to block. Other football games such as Madden automatically cause the player-controller character to complete such actions, without any additional user input.
Other moves in Backbreaker include jukes, hurdles and spins. Backbreaker also puts a high emphasis on it's tackle system, which has no canned animations, instead using its complex Euphoria physics engine to create real-time collisions between players. Backbreaker features a "Tackle Alley" mode, where players take on an open-field of defenders as a single running back.
The goal of Tackle Alley is to reach the opposite end of the field without being tackled. Players can progress through a total of different rounds, all increasing in difficulty through different arrangements of defenders, and presenting defenders with different abilities.
Players can accumulate points through a number of avenues in-game. These include "jukes", shoulder "barges", and even dancing or "showboating" on-field. There are also certain "zones" on the field that are typically more challenging to reach, but reward the player with bonus points. Over motion captured animations.
