I got the banana stuck on the floor.
10/10, I would play again.
40 over par and still didn't manage to finish the last hole. The physics made sense and all, I really enjoyed it, it's just that there were some bugs with the camera and targeting, leading it to be up to 180 degrees wrong or only being able to aim down. No rotation or direction changes could fix it.
It can be so hard to do targeting in 3D, but if you manage to get that right (along with the camera) you have a really cool and satisfying+frustrating rigidbody golf game, kind of similar in vibe to Human Fall Flat. There's so much you can do with those chimps!
Having that "ape scream build up" when the banana was in the air was a great decision, it just works so well.
I'd focus on changing how the player controls the chimp, make it less "tank simulator" and more "surgeon simulator", if you catch my drift. Go all in with the wonky physics, it's an ape game after all. That, and try incorporating a dynamic camera with reactive effects like shake or zooms, it's going to feel great!
It's really impressive that you managed to make a full 3D golf game in only 1.5 weeks!
I had a lot of fun playing through. Only negative that I can think of is that some courses were a bit frustrating and the soundtrack was a bit hard on the ears. Other than that, great work :)
When you are making a funny monke game, the key is to be funny and to have a monke.
Your game is very successful on both fronts.
In all seriousness, the game is very enjoyable but has a few weaknesses. I think a tutorial could have helped as getting sense of the controls can be a bit bewildering at first. The camera is a bit wack at times and its controls aren't the most intuitive. The music and art are both very good though (love those monke noises) and I love the concept, especially the quote you put on the itch page.
I came for a funny monke game and you delivered!
Goddamn it charlie, what are you doing!?
Seriously, this game is awesome. Though I dont know how well it fits the theme just because monkey, but the banana golf is really awesome. And the game is well made too, the music, animations, everything is great.
I also love that you added a precision mode, but it could have been even slower. Still, great to have.
Really love the music and gameplay was very fun!)
Quite possibly the best chimp-based mini golf game I've ever played.
This was absurd and I loved every second of it. The music shifts were especially well done. Great work!
