I really liked the glitching effect in the title screen and hoped to see it in the game , The game play was really great , I like the idea that the more you try the more you gain score. I just wanted to see the glitch effect more like maybe u can make the game glitch and then you can see the invisible objects for a split second while u r moving idk. but over all this a beautiful game !

Epicness
If epic is as high as I can answer... Then I'd say "pretty epic"! Also, YES!

One of the main issues everyone was having is that I didn't explain the "other side" feature well enough. Terribly sorry about that. If you hold down Right Mouse Button, you see the other side. Plenty of glitch effects there too. I'm glad you liked what you played, but so sorry you didn't get the full experience due to my lack of explanation in game. Lesson learned lol. Thank you for playing and leaving the feedback!!
I loved this game! The controls were smooth and well-done, the other side feature was implemented well, the music and sound were really good, and I really like how the idea is creative and interesting while also making for fun gameplay. It also has a surprisingly good horror factor. Aside from some small nitpicks, my only complaint is that it took a while to find out the secret. I like the mystery, but it would be nice if you had at least hinted at what the secret may be. Overall, it’s a great game, and you should be proud of yourself!

GeoJump (Flashing Lights)The intrigue! The mys𝐭ery! I need to know more! But in all honesty, I t𝐡ought this gam𝐞 was super c𝐨ol. I love how you in𝐭erpreted the t𝐡eme, and the atmosph𝐞re for each side is pe𝐫fect (I honestly got a little scared if I stayed on the other side too long). I al𝐬o liked how the controls were really intuitive and s𝐢mple. I don't know if its just me, but sometimes the ball doesn't bounce off the walls at the angle I expect it to. And if I were to give one suggestion, it is to hint how to activate the other si𝐝e better. The way I figured it out is that on a f𝐞w levels in I clicked the question mark which told me about a secret button, and, I don't know why, but my first instinct was actually to press rmb. Usually im not too good at golf games, so on my second attempt I got +16. In the end, I thought this was made very well, so Great Job!

Rainbow RestorationThe common response so far has been about hinting the other side feature better. I certainly agree too. I was going for a little mystery but looks like I went a little too far. As for the angle of bouncing, I had this issue as well. I think it's the polygon collision shape for the ball object. I tried few things and gave it more vertices to make it "rounder". But, yeah, it went unresolved to get the rest of the game done. I think I should've made the par's a little more forgiving too. My own scores during testing weren't much better than yours lol. Thank you for giving it a play and the awesome feedback!!
Cool game, only one bug - if the ball stops touching one of those green triangles, it endlessly spawns and softlocks the game - can't hit again. Encountered this relatively early on though so it wasn't too bad to restart.
great job!

The Other SideGreat game! Loved the audio and the idea was a nice twist to golf, didn't encounter any bugs during my run, good job!

To The Other SideI found a bit annoying that i couldn't hit the ball without adjusting his trajectory a bit first, and also sometimes the ball didn't traveled in the trajectory that i expected to travel (that could just be me being sh*t at calculating xD)
REALLY Good Game!! It feels really polished!! Also the artstyle is amazing!! At first it seems like a normal golf game, but then you play level 2 and... BOOM, mind blowing... O.o The only thing I'd work on is the explanations and/or feedback, that they could improve a bit, but other than that this game is awesome!! Good Job!!

DualityEhm, you have misunterstood what i said. Sorry for explaining it poorly, my bad :/
I WAS always able to change the trajectory, at any time. My complain here is that i HAD to, even when i didn't wanted to do that, if i wanted to adjust the force: there was times where i was ok with the default trajectory of the ball but i couldn't adjust the force without changeing the trajectory a little bit
Hope it's more clear what i meant, and i hope i have cleared the misunderstanding now. Cheers (^u^)
I really enjoyed this one! I'm giving 5 stars of Geometricness just because of your take on the Theme.
PS: 5 stars on the theme as well :)

We hate SimonHeh, this was funny. I kinda wish you had leaned even more into it and started to add more and more horrifific things to the other side as the game progressed to make the effect last longer, but it was still a neat little surprise when I first discovered the other side.
Gameplay was also neat, but I felt like something was off with the physics? Like, unless you take spin into account, the emergent angle should never be larger than the incident angle, right? Or do I have an error in my thinking? Also, sandpits are very hard to see, even on the other side.
Otherwise, pretty neat game! Shrinking the ball as it goes into the hole is a nice touch.

MöbiusssHey thanks for noticing all the little details. I will admit the physics got away from me and I dedicated more time to polishing other parts of the game. I often try to put too much into a small project and I need to discipline myself into focusing on a smaller amount of details. I kinda relied on the game engine's take on physics instead of really committing the time to get full control of the ball. It ended up being a sacrifice to get more of the other mechanics and effects completed. Thank you for plating and the awesome feedback!
nice other side. your golf game is very well implemented and fun to play .

The other sideOoo ohhh buddy its amazing, more like a horror game for me when i click the right mouse button i got surprised its amazing
