Nice concept for a roll the dice theme. Not a fan of golf games, but that was done good, so I spent some good time on this.

It's golf with a d20 for the ball!

Good take on rolling dice. i kinda enjoyed the golf mechanics!
keep it up! good luck (人 •͈ᴗ•͈)
Easy to play and get into, though I think there is just one problem -- the player can't affect the face the die rolls in any obvious way. Maybe adding some sort of other control would help with that, making it feel more skillful to play.
It's a fun game and the "cancel flick" button is much appreciated, but I don't see what value the D20 multiplier adds here apart from possibly tanking your par score due to bad RNG? Also the indicator didn't line up with where the die ended up most of the time for me.
Props for making a 3d game with a decent camera in it though! Good job!
Looks fantastic! The visuals are definitely one of the best for me so far, with pretty advanced-looking lightings and effects. The gameplay, however, could use a little bit refining. The strokes feel way too overpowered for me, and I missed a lot of shots because of that. Camera angle is manual and while it does give you the freedom of maneuver, it is quite hard to control and does not automatically snap to the dice after a stroke. There are a few more suggestions as well, but I think you can consider those two first. Overall, nice work!
Nice vibes in this game. Very soothing, I felt that the gameplay was a little bit frustrating at times however which lead to only a few rounds in total.
A post jam version with some more levels and tweaked flicking would be great to see!
I found it super hard to get the die to land in the hole (6+ shots on the tutorial level) and I wish the camera followed the ball, but outside of that I really enjoyed the look and feel of the game. It was calming when it wasn't frustrating! Good work!
Very calming and chill! Wish the camera would reset to the ball after each flick tho! Nice job. Also what engine did you use? Played at https://twitch.tv/hedgein <3
I like the concept as a short jaunt, I think the randomness lends itself to shorter playtimes than longer ones (which works well in this case). Sometimes the die's arc wouldn't match the predicted arc at all, which was a tad frustrating, but overall I think this idea has potential.
As others have mentioned, the controls and camera angles were a little bit janky but that's part of the fun with jam games. I laughed, I had a good time. That's all that matters.
Urist, Thanks for letting me play! I enjoyed the play off of the d20 and combining it with golf, this was a really interesting route to take. I think even though the art was assets, the level design could have been more unique using those assets. The music was fire loved the lo-fi gold vibes. And the UI was a bit hard to read in some areas maybe adding a box behind it for more readability. Great job Jammin!
Nice little golf dice flicking game. Has some really nice graphics going on. Camera need a little work though, would have been better to orbit around the ball instead of being a free camera.
The controls are a bit junky, and the projection ark often doesn't correlate to how the die will actually fly. The graphics are great, but I had some bad performance drops out of nowhere in a middle of a level. Still, good job!
I think the dice aspect is not a substantial enough chunk of the game. It feels like golf, but with a slightly differently shaped ball. The controls are a little bit annoying (especially Q and E). Overall a decent game; I think the graphics especially were very good.
