I love the combination of flappy bird and golf :joy: great job
Nice combination between two completely random ideas. Also great audio :)
I don't know if it's something to do with your code or the website, but sprites are a little blurry. Not a deal breaker by any means, though. Good job!
Solid entry, the game is super annoying but I guess it's by design :P I like the audio, obstacles could use a different green than grass to bit a bit more readable.

You forgot "hit Z to win" :) GJ! I got 0 flaps on the first try, 3 on the second and 5 on the third. Sir, if there will be any World FlappyGolf Championship, sign me in! :)
@CaldwellYSR haha Thanks for playing!
@Jajo I did stretch the sprites out a good bit, but it seems fine on my end. I've tested it in Chrome. Maybe an internet connection or other browser issue? Thanks for playing!
@Moczan haha yes, its suppose to be that weird old-school difficulty. Though I am planning on polishing the power/lift in the future, moreso the lift. And I couldn't think of a good obstacle besides a tree. I agree that green is a bit clashing. I plan to fix that in the future. Thanks for playing!
@petro-shoferystov haha, yep it is "Hit Z to win!" I will add that. You will be the first to know when the Golden Beak Golf arcade tournaments begin, sir. Thanks for playing!
This is a nicely done flappy game, and a fun idea! I believe your flap counter is way off, though.
I enjoyed playing this game apart from me being bad at it, there is nothing I can complain about!
Aesthetic is awesome! A little hard to control but I think that's the point
@radical-dog Dog oh man, nice spot!! It seems that every so often it is doubling the flap counts for a cycle. Will have to hunt that down! Thanks for playing!
@duck-games It is pretty difficult. I'm going to polish it even more in the future! Thanks for playing!
@creepyounguy Thanks man! I intend to polish the controls a little, but still keep it a bit difficult! Thanks for playing!
A flappy golf :)
Nice idea! I included it in my Ludum Dare 41 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQphYmNNYE4
@jupiter-hadley nice video compilation! Thanks for including Golden Beak Golf!! :)
Coming from the #js13k world cool game dude!
Cool game with very easy controls :thumbsup:
It's a mix between arcade and golf I guess which worked surprisingly well and made for quite a fun game. The one button idea was good because it was easy to figure out how to play the game but I didn't realize that you can turn into a bird while airborn at first. But it makes sense since the golfball is an egg.
The lift and power was a little confusing though because it didn't seem linear and was hard to know when to press to get the egg to fly low or high in order to get through the holes. An arrow pointing in the direction of travel would be easier or some way to see the path of the egg.
The style of the game was cool and pico-8 based games are usually a lot of fun. Nice choice for a game jam.
Good game and well done. :smiley:
Good job! Cool game!
I left my rating of your game, if you can leave your feedback in our game, Witch's Escape.

Good job!Funny sounds and good idea!
Nice idea but waaaaaay too hard. The flappy bird part was ironically easier than the golfing.
@agar3s haha yay js13k! I can't wait for it again this year :) I'm going to try and do a talk at the local gamedev and javascript meetups to get some more people excited about it. Thanks for playing!
@Linus I agree, I couldnt think of a better word than "lift" but I know there is one haha. I intend to do a lot of polishing and new versions to this game :) Thanks for playing!
@cristiano.m.garcia Thanks for playing! I just checked out your game!
@victorcrafty Thanks for playing! It was a lot of fun to make :)
@NTurnerGames haha agree. I intend to do a lot of polishing on this one to take it to a complete project! It needs some balance tweaks and a lot of stuff :) Thanks for playing!
The game is fun, I like the idea of the game, but it is pretty hard to actually golf, you kinda have to rely on the flapping to get anywhere. But overall its a fun simple game.
@Yubs Yea I want to make the golfing more rewarding in the future! I want to find a good way to give the user a preview of the course or something like that.
Liked the game, especiellay when i went back to read the instructions after noticing the 0 flaps. Liked it! =)
Easy controlled game, I like it! wow! more games with only one control. Nice work with the graphics. well done!
@nilstastic thanks! I wish I had time to add some better instructions! I will in future versions :) Thanks for playing!
Easy controls but hard to master. The idea is great but it is really difficult to do it right ( for me). After some "training" I got it and had fun. Thanks! :)
This is a cool idea. Might be a fun mobile game. I Like it!
Great idea to combine golf and flappy bird! Easy to start but really difficult to master.
Oh wow, I did not see this combination comming. I love it! I only have one complaint though: You should have reduced the number of controls needed to play this. How do you even reach all of the buttons with your hands?!
Neat idea for a game ! But daaaaamn this is too hard. I don't think it's even possible to go trough one of the obstacle without hitting it. But anyway, it's still a good game. I like the presentation, and it work pretty well. Good job !
Damn it, 20 minutes later and I still can't break 4: and I got really good at Flappy Bird back in the day ;)
My only tiny nitpick is the power bar: there's no reason for it to go so powerful I think - Like, max should be 50% - 75%... it's frustrating (not the good kind) to accidentally go anywhere over 50% and then you know there's no way to recover. I guess it would be cool if the initial shot could be more influential or integral to how the flight part worked.
But this was great fun - I played for ages. I loved the "multi-stage-ness" of it. Perfect graphics and audio (reminded me a bit of the old StrongBad videlectrix games too - which is always a good thing)!
Haha,interesting game,it's even harder than Flappy Bird!
@Toulou after playing it hundreds of times, I actually made par twice haha.
Neat game. Could be great as a mobile game since you can do each action with only one button.
The gap is very small to fly through, which makes it difficult from the start. If you started with larger gaps and had it shrink the further you go it might give a better feel to the game.
@aplite Right! I wish I had more time to polish. I've been working on it more since the compo ended and have tweaked a lot of things. :)
God damn it this is hard! Flaps: 0 :cry:
It's a neat concept, but it's quite tough to make progress by either golfing or flapping. I basically hit every obstacle on the way to the hole on each of my three or four playthroughs, except for one that I managed to fly through. Part of the problem is the gaps are too small and part is that there seems to be a bit of a lag between pressing Z and the power/lift meters registering the input.
Really interesting take on the theme. The game is very polished and pretty fun despite is very difficult. Good job on this on.
Please, take a look at my game too: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/confessional
Really interesting combination of themes! Seems like you end up doing more flapping than golfing, and I spent most of my time trying to minimize power and lift so I can flap
Interesting mashup! It does feel a little unbalanced though; there isn't really much point to trying to golf effectively, since a faster hit makes the flappy bird game harder, and you can only realistically clear one gate per shot with the golf shot.
Making the whole thing playable with one button was a nice touch. Always nice to see PICO-8 entries too!
@sean-s-leblanc yes! I am planning on actually bringing this game to a completed state. Maybe 9 "holes". My biggest challenge right now is trying to find a way to make the golfing feel more important!
