How does the game fit the theme?

This game is great! I love the shotgun mechanic, it's such a unique take on golf. I really liked the intro, it was hilarious. The art was nice and I really liked the music, the artists did a great job! I'd love to play a full version with more levels and game mechanics. Overall a very fun and unique game. Well done!

Pretty cool game. I like the mechanic of the player having to slow down, but I did feel it was a little inconsistent. Sometimes I would hold it down for a good few seconds and the ball would still shatter. Not sure if that's intentional and you're supposed to hit a "sweet spot" for slowing down the ball.

Golf games automatically get atleast 4 stars! And the funny intro and simplicity of it all made it a fun game to play. Bumped it up to a 5 star for me. Really enjoyed it!

Glad to hear you really liked it, and thanks for your thoughts and feedback! Simplicity was part of the goal with this one, so I'm glad we were on the mark in your eyes!

Great game! Very fun and simple, but enjoyable. Loved the intro, it was hilarious and the whole vibe was great. Visuals and sfx were good as well.

Really good work!

I've no knowledge about golf and this game taught me some terms! Managed to get an EAGLE on the final 'level' which I'm very proud of! Fun times, well done and good luck!

Nice work! Didn't intend for this game to teach golf terms, so I'm glad someone ended up finding it informative anyways, lol! Thanks for playing, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

What a wonderful game! The opening cutscene excited me, and the game did not let me down afterwards. I also liked how you could play the levels however you wanted. Great job!

Developer

Thanks for letting me know, that intro cutscene took more work than I care to admit! Glad you enjoyed both the intro and the gameplay!

I really enjoyed this one! It took me a little bit to figure out that you only needed to hit the flagpole though lol

Developer

Yeah, the tutorial ended up only being a bit of text that displays at the start of the first hole, so it's understandable that you may have felt confused. Thanks for the feedback, and I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

Absolutely fantastic! The cheesey opening movie was actually pretty funny. The game mechanic itself is so much fun. I found myself replaying levels to try and find little shortcuts where yall didn't intend for me to go. That is my favorite thing to do in a game. Oh I wish there were more levels. One of my favorite games I've played so far!

Developer(+2)

Ah, I understand how you feel! There were more levels planned (and most of them are actually completed) but we had a second mechanic we had to cut that got rid of most of their value! I do plan on adding them back after the jam is over though, just for the fun of it, so come check it out again in a few weeks!

Will do! I'm excited for that

Very fun game to play, I found it to be a bit hard and couldn't get far, but I enjoyed anyway!
