Did you work in a team?
I did the design, coding, and graphics. Chris (@gruber_music) did the music and sfx. We've worked together before and it is always a pleasure!

Was the resolution a challenge?
No problem with the resolution. I rarely go above 128x128. :)

This was great! A top contender if not THE top, for sure! Love all the little details and love you put into the small stuff, just for fun, like the golf cart interactions/swimming/environment. my critique would be it was a little tough at first to get the hang of, but that's alright. sometimes you score a 9 on your first hole in real life, haha. 

Was the helicopter pad just for show? did something special happen if I hit a ball on it? 
Also hitting the "D" key seemed to bring up a debug screen, which I did and took a moment to figure out what happened.

Very cute arcade like game

This is the chillest golf game, I like just wandering around the course in the golf cart.  I like your simplification of the mechanics of golf, and I like the scale you've built everything to, it's very cute.  The camera movement feels very jittery when moving diagonally but I don't know if there's any fix to that (without moving in sub-pixel increments).  Very, very nicely made entry.

Excellent entry, Johan! Loved the design choices (simplified swinging mechanics, no club selection, fun driving between holes).

Got 48. Never played golf before, learned fast. Great lesson, how to use pixels. Swim animation is a masterpiece. Best submission I’ve played at moment.

Super impressive game! The polish and simple gameplay was really nice. It would be an awesome project to develop further :)

Amazing work! It reminded me a little of Simgolf. Your game is very fun!

I'm generally not a big fan of sports games, but this is a really awesome take on golf.  Excellent job, 5-stars all around!  Now, please work on a mod with no golf and only golf cart combat  XD

Very fun game, especially when driving.

This is one of the greatest games I've ever played. Golf translated to pixel form perfectly. After my 9 holes I felt like sticking around. So I hopped in another cart and tore the place up. What an awesome game.

Best game I've played so far this jam. Would love to see the expanded to minigolf as someone else mentioned or a full 18 hole course.

Can't wait to see the game extended. Maybe we'll see some mini-golf courses? With loops, windmills and all that :))

Very fun to run stuff over with the cart :P

Really fun game!

I mean, what is there to say except this is really good? It looks beautiful, there are loads of little interactive touches so that, despite the resolution, it still feels really immersive, and it's just overall a relaxing, enjoyable experience!

You did an amazing job with with the user experience and everything feels so smooth! You also added so many effects such as the car leaving trails and destroying signals! and the different terrain resistances.

As I already commented on twitter, a masterpiece :) Also having Gruber for music is wining hand (not to self, find a musician sidekick!)! Lots of details everywere!

Amazing game, love all of the detail! Being able to  run over the signs and flags with the golf cart is a nice touch!
