Great little game! Absolutely lovely! Enjoyed every second! There's a lot of depth here under the surface it would be cool to see this developed further.

Honestly, just lovely. Great tone, art, sound and music - I simply felt happy playing right to the end. 

On theme, responsive and intuitive controls, and I really appreciated knowing the affect before each shot. There was still luck involved therefore but it didn't feel unfair and provided a nice challenge too (best I got was some eagles, but I did also get 19 on one...)

Also, great name.

This was such a creative take on the theme!  The golfing was very intuitive, and I had fun trying to adjust my shots depending on the random status effect from the die.

The aesthetics of the game were also really nice.  I could definitely imagine other wacky levels that you could have come up with, given more time.  I would love to play more stages!

Really nicely done!

  Nice game, the graphics are perfect (or par-fect). The design is very good, enjoyed it! Like the random modifier bit! Deserves to be continued!

Realy fun game! Ability to move the camera would be helpful

Very fun and creative idea! But if there was an opacity of the houses when the dice was inside them, it would be a totally perfect game!

I think this game is beautifull, polished and really fun to play.

This game is very fun and I love the twist of there being different modifiers that change your shots!

The mechanics feel very polished and the levels are fun to play!

Amazing game!

Very fun game and unique little twist for the theme. Levels were all well designed too!

Man, that was a cool game! I liked the idea of the dice rolling mechanic, and the golf mechanic is a lot smoother than the other golf game I played in this jam! the cube-shaped golf "ball" was giving me trouble though, especially with going out of bounds. Because of the shape of the ball, its very easy for the ball to bounce off the green and jump over the border. for that reason, I would have probably raised the border a bit. 

Also, some of the jumps don't work too well, it feels like its necessary to either get the power shot or the jump shot to do them. There was this one level where there is a bifurcating path and a jump on the right side. because there is a descending ramp on the other side, I got stuck and couldn't easily recover other than by managing to jump the gap again and coming back, since the respawn would force me back on the ledge with nowhere to go.

I really enjoyed the gameplay and concept! Well done on submitting!

Thanks for the feedback.

I agree with what you're saying here. Towards the end of the jam I was rushing to get the game finished, so there's still a lot of issues with the physics and level design etc. It's something that I'll address in a post-jam update. There are many changes that people have suggested that would make the game a whole lot better.

I appreciate you taking your time to play :)

This game is fun and chill, and the core mechanic is implemented well. Great stuff!

Really clean look! The jumps shot feels really good so perhaps the game can lean towards that a bit more? Also a more bouncy edge might make it feel a bit better.

Developer

I agree, the fact the ball doesn't bounce of the edges like in normal golf is the one thing I wish I could have improved on. It would have made the game so much better. 

What I have gathered from all the feedback is that everyone loves the jump shot. I don't think I want to lean into it more, rather I want to create more effects that are just as fun use.

Thanks for playing :)

I love golf games. I was hoping someone would make something like this for the jam, and you executed very nicely. Thanks!

It looks great. The idea of the power ups is amazing. It's a fun way to mix up golf.
