Fun to play, I just need to get better at bank shots...
Really nice and very polished. I loved the level design and the difficulty curve. The path visualisations were done really well also and it added to the overall game feel. It really gave that one more try vibe!
Very good, I have extreme troubles visualizing paths so I am very bad at these games but I was able to get $2.3k which felt pretty decent. Some of them I have absolutely no idea how you could get it in 1 shot. I wish there was a way to practice individual levels! Other than that I really thought this was one of the better golf-type games I’ve played in a long while, nice work!
Great game! You added the risk theme to golf in a very fun way. Amazing visuals and music too! Well done!
This is a very polished game! Very chill and enjoyable. My one nitpick is that the UI with dark text on a dark background was a bit hard to read. Some people mentioned that the shot was inaccurate, but I wonder if that was intentional? To mimic the variant nature of golf shots.
Edit: came across a bug where the ball spawned out side of the table after a reset.
It felt like the "line showing where the ball is going" tm was off. Other then that, great game with a fun mechanic!
Well executed! Only feedback is preview of the shot is not accurate, which is annoying. It's clean, has good art and sound design. Also the theme is on point.
That was fun. I played it a few times and won with $1166.
Fun little take on mini-golf! Liked the simple pixel visuals and casino music.
The only thing that was not clear for me is configuring the bet as the text is a bit greyed out comparing to other in game elements, I guess that lifting the contrast a bit would not hurt.
Nice submission, liked the mix of pool and betting. Also great music. Feels very polished.
Thank goodness for hole #8. This game is simple & effective, the (jazz lounge) vibes are on point, and the dev's interpretation of "risk it for the biscuit" is very well executed. The only gripe I have is that the "preview vector" does not very well convey the force of the shots. But it's easy to correct once you've tried it once or twice. I'm very pleased by this game - a standout for this jam. Bravo!
Perfect, can u play mine?
really good visuals and gameplay too
Great game! I really appreciate being able to see where the ball will go before you hit it, it's definitely useful. Love the concept, it's really unique. Nice work!
A really fun and addicting game! I liked the mechanics and the visuals! Good job!
I'm not great at golf, and playing this game showed me I can't even play virtual golf. LOL
All jokes aside, I really liked it!
such a great game, now if only I could get #3 and #5 consistently with one shot...
One of the better gambling idea out there! dont really know what to criticize!
This is by far my favorite concept! Such a simple idea, but so well polished and well executed that it’s just fantastic. Loved it so much! Really fun to play, and I hope to see more of it!
