Even "taking it easy" is hard. :-)

Great concept, and really well executed.

I also thank you for making gifs of your game. That helped a lot. I don't know why, but I first was convinced that the ball should move towards the cursor, just like some noob who doesn't know AngryBird. XD

Developer

Thanks! I appreciate that.


The drag direction was one of those early decisions that I didn't have time to experiment with. I like being behind the ball, since that's one of the challenges of real golf. You can't use a laser pointer to aim into the course, or whatever. It wasn't until too late I realized you're constantly dragging the mouse off the screen in this webGL version, and forward would have made the indicator easier to see. Things you learn in a game jam!

I like this, it is a bit too much like mono golf, but still a fun game, Good Job!

Thanks!

I promise I had never heard of monogolf before making this. Although, after looking it up....  oof. Yeah. That hurts. Although it is kind of gratifying to see some ideas I had in a well executed (non-jam) form. Like "so that WOULD have worked! I knew it!".

Glad you enjoyed it!
