How does your game fit the theme?
It fits the theme because you are getting started on your golf ball. For example the way it will move / collide.

It's really short, but fun enough to be interesting! tho the level editor really saves the lack of more leves, i think it could be developed more, maybe propultion pads or different height levels? anyways really enjoyed it and it was really fun!

Hi thank you foe the feedback! I do wish there couldve been more levels but just didnt have time unfortunatly XD

Submitted

I love golf games and I really enjoyed playing yours! I liked he credit system and the idea of power-ups that consume more credit! Well done!

Developer

Thank uuuu

Hey, this was a nice play, felt good to play the levels and was cool that you managed to make a level editor within such a short time span (unfortunately was using a trackpad so did not get to test it out).  If you had more time would have been cool to see more levels which used the different shots, but I did like the concept, well done!

Developer

Hey thanks for the feedback

Submitted

Oh hey another golf game!

This reminds me of a game I wanted to make at some point where you have to type in an equation to make a ball reach a destination but I ran into some issues with that idea.
In here I appreciated the attempt to make the game more interesting, I noticed the other types of shots weren't really all that useful though. I just used my straight shots over and over because the number of shots wasn't relevant, only the amount of credits. And usually more straight shots was more useful than fewer weird ones.

Developer

Hi thanks for the feedback. This game acc started as the idea that you put in equations same as urs but it was too complicated to do quickly XD

I agree with u on that the effects should've been more useful. The level design didnt really help on that either.  

Submitted

ah yeah sounds like we both ran into the same issues then lol

Developer

Ill have to check yours out later!

Submitted

Thanks

Really nice mechanics and music.

Im not sure if i finished or the game just crashed, are there more than 3 courses?

Love to see some more courses.

Developer

Huh thats wierd. There are 5 courses. How did it crash?

Submitted

I hole'd at course 3 and the screen went grey.

Developer

Huh wierd. Ill have to look into it...

Submitted

Nice job! The presentation and idea were fun! I may have been doing it incorrectly, but it seemed like my normal strokes were costing credits. Luckily Ma Power came in clutch though :)

Developer(+1)

Hi Im glad you enjoyed it! Each power you add to your shot costs 5 credits so that's why it was costing credits.

concept was solid. Wish there were at least a few more levels and options to experiment with but overall decent fun for 5 levels.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! I didnt have time for more levels but I agree more / better designed ones would have been nice XD

holly its too hard to me, but i like the mechanic, its really interesting, but you should make better ui and polish the visuals, have a good luck

Incredibly fun and replayable! There's not a lot but I really love min-maxing moves and coming up with different strategies to approach the same levels! SILLY GOLF!!!

Developer

Thank youuuuuuu
