Pretty neat, took a bit long to introduce the horror mechanic but the mechanic is pretty interesting to play around with, it's mostly restrictive and irritating but that's the point, creates a lot of anxiety, pretty solid all around
atleast reveal, to us what the character names are 😀
Playing Golf At Night Is More Terrifying Than You Imagined!
can there a part 2? to this game pls
I'm actively watching Hololive VTuber Ouro Kronii play this right now, and she's panicking so much, it's damn hysterical
And it's glorious!
Also caddy Gura so sweet and supportive (gonna miss her so much)
This is hands down my favorite horror game of everything I have ever played. Sounds hyperbolic, but it's true. Do you plan on pursuing more horror in the future?
Thank you! I'd only want to do horror again if i had a good idea for it- maybe one day?
I'll take it lol. Apple Seller looks like a treat btw
Tough game here but man was it good!
This game was hard! Thanks for making it.
Cool game, quite intense. The jump scares kind of get annoying after a while so I am really glad that there is a turn of enemies option. I really enjoyed this game, but I just could not get the game to stop freezing when I entered the 3rd last level :(
bug:hole 1: un-rendering game
bug: I felt in the first hole when pickin up the ball from it and got stuck
yo bro is there gonna be a second version?
Got all the achievements and I love this game and the soundtrack!
congrats! and thank you 🙏
really fun game ! i genuinely can't believe that it's free. good luck with your future projects !!!
First game I donated to on itch.io, absolutely wonderful stuff and I was surprised this isn't being sold on steam. Mad props!
Can't believe this game is free, absolutely bewildering game. well done bro your going places in life!
yep, jerking it to this photo!
I loved that game, but i can't play game anyone because of too high fps :(
Really great, surprising little game.
Is there no save function in this game? I imagine the game is long enough that it would definitely benefit from having a save function in it. At least it means we can keep our scores from previous holes
There's a chapter save system- it should save every time you move a map. It might be some sort of system permissions thing on your computer if it's not working? What system are you on?
I did find the chapter system, which works fine. But it does mean that we don't keep our scores, which as bad as my score would have been, it would've still been good to keep.
This one thing aside, the game has been great and mega stressful, like what Golf typically is
Don't listen to the comments below!! This game is great! Great concept! This is why i love indie games there just out there!!!!!
I encountered a bug at the end of the game where one of the monsters killed me during a cutscene and gave me a black screen :(
The same just happened to me in the middle of a stream
like do you just copy other shitty horror games like FUCK come on be interesting PLEASE NOW PLEASE
Can you explain which game this is stolen from?
Have you ever seen a golf themed horror game before lol
yeah the ROBLOX golf Halloween map is PRETTY SCARY!!!!!!!!! But not I'd expect a baby like you to understand it............ don't come crying to me when you brown all over your undies
ratio btw hahahahah
I get you are below 15 since you are playing roblox ahahaha also how are you scared from that map lol
bro don't try to argue with a retard who's js tryna ragebait bc he has nothing better to do
you mean disabled person
hey so. i regularly went like 18 over. for every hole. so thats like, not enjoyable. 30 minutes and i was at hole 7. you can say i suck. i say you think people like playing golf in a horror game a lot more than they actually do. i liked the music! i hated the golf i hated the golf i hated the golf i hated the golf i didt finish
being good at the golf isn't really important to the game unless you're achievement hunting
never golfing again.
im scared
too fucking long
Great game! I really enjoyed it! Definitely spooky and kept me on the edge of my seat!
what exactly does all balls kill do?
a normal golf ball can kill an enemy!
see I thought that too, but I tried it and it didn't work
i just tested this- it worked on my end. are the other cheats working?
golden clubs and balls, sprint, and jump, those were working, I'm gonna see if restarting the game makes it work when I play next, which is hopefully to be soon, cause this shit is actually really fun to achievement hunt
I am sorry to pester but do you think I could get an answer to my comment about clarification on some achievements, I'm not asking for like a walkthrough or even tips on how to do them, just what their parameters are, because I did holes 2, 5, and 7 before the music that comes with them ends, and I did not get it
sorry i missed this! you have to get the balls into the hole and pick it out before the music ends. i'm pretty sure that it shouldn't be a bugged achievement since i remember hearing other people get it. what platform are you on?
edit: i just tested this achivement- it works on my end
I'm on Windows, also damn alr I guess I'll just give it another swing (heh) I would like to know what a "run" is defined as for the purpose of multiple achievements if it's not too much to ask
a run is from clicking begin to the end of the game where you see your scores.
oh also if you still check these comments could you give some parameters for the more vaguely worded achievements, the 2.5,7 hole one, or what exactly qualifies as a run for the purpose of multiple achievements, what confusing putters means, etc.
oh also what holes is it even possible to get a hole in 1 on?
okay so totally fucking awesome game, very frustrating at times, but that's just the nature of golf, eh? ohh yeah and the being chased while doing it thing, ngl getting par on all holes without turning enemies to off or slow, which I was tempted to do many times, was hard as hell, but very rewarding, this is a novel concept and I think you executed it almost perfectly, and as a guy who is big on audio design, A motherfucking plus, good concept, great execution, great sound design, great ambiance, kinda capitalizing on the lower graphics, and it's just fantastic
oh also think it's weird you can trigger hole 13 without finishing hole 12
ngl the "the ball cannot go into the water" should be fading text that shows up as the game restarts, rather than a black screen that needs to go out, it's only a few seconds, but it ends up getting kind annoying on the island hole
edit: which I did par on right after writing this, but still that would be my input
Very interesting concept! This definitely takes what seems like a simple game of golf and really ups the intensity. Love it!
Whenever I try downloading and playing this game, when I hop the fence, the entire screen turns into a sunset and I can look around, but nothing loads. Any fixes for this?
