This minigolf game is a bit long to load but worth it! 😉

Good idea, the game suits the theme perfectly.

The boss was challenging, but I could beat it with my poor skills (In easy mode) so all good!

I'm so glad you liked it! It means a lot. I'll check out your game too!

I found this game fun to play. The game was really unexpected. I think the final boss could have had some screen shake or health bar to let you know how much you are damaging him. The audio was fun and so were the visuals. A little polish and you have a cool game.

Thanks for playing! Yeah I was thinking about a health bar for the boss and enemies but my attempts just made it look ugly. I just hoped the cracks were enough to show you were doing more damage.  I'll go try your game at some point as well.

It was a very nice game but as I use a trackpad, it was hard to shoot and press and all the ads. The voice acting is brilliant and goes so well with the game. Overall, where I got up to (60%) had not much variation in obstacles so that could be an improvement.

Hey, I thought the voice acting was really goofy and fun and fit in awesomely with the game's theme. One gripe I have is that I think there should be some feedback when you shoot the boss - maybe a blink red or a health bar or something along those lines. I think you did a great job and had a lot of fun playing - well done :)

Thanks for the great comment! I tried to give feedback to the player with the cracks in the skeleton's hand because when I tried to add a health bar it just looked ugly.  You are right though- I think I could add more feedback. Everyone who is reading this comment should play Zoolouie's game! It is a masterpiece!

This is a funny and very well made little game. I love the voice acting, and the gameplay is simple and fun. So overall a really good little jam game. Well done.

Thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked the voice acting. I often cringe every time I hear my own voice.
