Honestly felt like a fairly well polished game. I had a lot of fun playing and thought it was a really creative idea! 5/5 creativity and enjoyment

Developer

Thank you so much! Well polished is such a compliment!

Brilliant! Grass looks great and satisfying to mow, so you nailed a crucial part of your game 😄

I appreciate the tutorial, and the controls always on the HUD! There’s a ton of controls and a couple meters to keep track off, so maybe I’d appreciate an organic reminder in the actual levels “HOLD J AND RELEASE TO BREAK THIS BOULDER”. Maybe too many specials as well, the mowing, the “free” J attack, and a single special may have been better? And boost I suppose, we love boost even if it’s expensive 😄

I loved the “SSStyle Rank”-inspired meter 🙌

I was also taken out from actually needing to golf in the end lol. And I don’t think you can aim backwards, so you’re forced to bounce off the screen boundary? Meta 😂

Insane ambition, and you did so well in just 4 days!!! Congrats!

Developer

Thank you for such a thoughtful review! I'll take this back to the game. I was going for that "Easy to play, Hard to master" feel, so I think I just have to tighten it up a little more. Thank you again!

This is different, i liked it. Golf was OD hard, but oncei realized you can bound off the wall it's really easy to golf on par. 

Developer

Thank you! The golf part gets everyone off guard the first play lol.

seems like a fun game but, it going from just a walking sim to a golf sim ( a really hard one at that) just kinda stunk, but benefit of the doubt, I'm sure I'm just really ass at it and rated all of the stuff it should get rated for, the sounds were great, the art was great, and the creativity was pretty up there considering I've never played anything like this

Thank you! Sorry it was so hard, I'll take your input back into the game. I'm glad you enjoyed the other parts of it! Thank you so much playing and rating!
