I really want to praise the level design. This is the strongest part of the game. It was fun and meditative to play the game. It would be cool if every level could be replayed. For example, like in Angry birds for 3 stars, the game lacks a challenge)
Good idea! I didn't even think about star ratings because I figured it would be a continuous gameplay loop to hole 9. I might have to implement this... thanks!
I am intrigued by your use of the limitation - it works so well, hahaha! Perhaps maybe a larger "reset" area for the ball would serve to make it a bit more challenging, but that's a very minor thing! That point aside, I thoroughly enjoyed your game! I like the fact that the levels get progressively more difficult, more or less, as we get closer to the final level! What I enjoyed the most about this is that at some points we are "forced" to hit the ball through the blood to make it to the hole!
I really like that the game feels fun and relaxing above all~ It also feels like it can be very approachable even to those who don't necessarily enjoy golf or sports in general. Furthermore, it doesn't feel ruthless or punishing in any way (thus adding to the "relaxing" factor, along with the music), and the idea of a flurry of bats spurring the ball forth is super adorable! Excellent job with your game!! ^^
I sucked but it was a fun game!
OH NO! This is not the only hope?! Oh no...
It's very laggy and hard to get there. But the game is very good
Nice golf, I'm not fan of golf but this game hooked me. Nice sound and interesting concept with blood. And these bats, they are awesome =)
The game is very nice but i don't think the limitation is a very good fit for it.
Golf wasn't something I expect to see. I think a timer would make the game more challenging and fun (maybe limited lives too).
Thanks, I didn't want to make the game too difficult. You can try to get par if you are looking for a challenge. I think if you have to hold down the mouse and hit the power bar first try it would have made it tougher, but more confusing for less experienced players and I was just going for something simple xD
Cool concept. This is a really unique take on the jam's limitation. The camera motion were smooth and the mechanics was easy to understand. I just think that maybe the ball should not be allowed to touch the blood at all, because I feel like I'm cheating whenver I just blast through the sea of blood, then being respawned somewhere close to the hole instead of following the grass path which would have taken significantly more hits.
Ah you are in the air therefore going over the blood. I tried to make this obvious by zooming in the camera and showing particles when you land, but it's tough in top-down 2d. Also you can kinda cheat by just respawning closer to the hole, with more time I would have respawned you closer to your original position (where you hit the ball from)
Oh. That explains it. Really nice job still!
I love arcade golf, so I was happy with this!
The graphics and gameplay are both smooth, no major complaints there. It feels very loosely tied to vampires, but I absolutely love the name. It’d be cool if there was a little vampire golfer hitting the ball, but I understand time limitations and all that.
Overall, a solid game!
A vampire golfer would have been awesome, but I'm not so good at art and not sure how to make that look good in a top down 2D style!
good fun
Never expected such a game from a Vampire/Blood related game jam, crazy! ahhahah
I loved it, expecially the graphics polish
Check out my game if you want :)
i like the moving player with direction throwing ball. nice idea
