Fantastic! Great idea and great execution! You sir got talent!
The only negative thing I found is that sometimes (mostly when the ball is near a wall) it tends to be super hard for the game to let you shoot in the direction you intend.

Can't give negative feedback of this. GO TO SLEEP 40 HOURS STRAIGHT.
I kinda want to know how funny this can be playing in multiplayer. Because I think it will get a LOT funnier.
Thank you both for your kind words!
I'm planning on making the game multiplayer if it gets enough attention (not probable but huh, let me DREAM OK)
I know about the problem with the shoot direction. I tried to reduce the cases when that occurs making an automatic adjustment to the best point to hit the ball towards. It's not perfect at all, but I didn't have the time to improve it ><
(duplicated comment deleted ><)
Awesome game and very well made! If you added multiplayer / lan I could see this game becoming really popular!
@Jrpl thank you so much!
I wish I could've made it multiplayer for the jam, but that was too much xD maybe in an update?
Dude... this game is awesome, just the simple idea of playing a golf moba its perfect <3
Brilliant!
Amazingly well executed. Good AI, great system. Good concept. I only managed to score once. But it's very funny. I'd love to see this game developed and play online against other players. It could be hilarious! Great music, by the way. <3
Really cool game! Was a bit worried at first because I thought it would need multiplayer, but was surprised that you could make good AI within three days. Good job :)
Hahaha I love it Music is a joke, the characters are cool and collisions goes perfect. Bigger ball maybe? Congratulations man! curraco!
Hey, I got here from your comment and fun to see another golf game in this LD for sure =) I really liked your entry. Your came feels really solid, nice with the blitz dash option and the action nature of the game. I also like the zoom in to aim as you get close to the ball - I think I may implement that style for my post-version of my game since aiming is difficult in my game. Over all, great effort and well done!
Impresionante...Amazing! well done!!! I really enjoyed your game.
@MichiPantera @0nironauta thank you both! I really enjoyed your submission and I'm glad you enjoyed mine too!
@Random Thoughts thanks! The AI is pretty basic but gets the job done. As long as it feels good to the player, everything will work <3
@Imphenzia thank you! I'm really excited to see another golf game! I wish I could make something as visually compact and good as your game, really.
@sandovictor17 I'm glad to hear that! <3
Really Amazing! Hats off! The Hard work really shows. Can't tell you how much inspired I am to make an AI game after playing this game. Mine is not that great in front of your game, but you can try it here: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/memebumps
@Aditya Shukla thank you so much, really!
I'm planning to write a post about how I designed and coded the AI to feel good and enjoyable, if you want I can let you know whenever I do it!
Wow, this is really cool.
@DerLasseHenrich thank you! <3
Really great, great concept and well executed. Of course the gameplay is limited but for a jam game it is great, very polished, and good fun for ten minutes. Never thought a golf moba would be a thing so very pleased it is a good thing.
@Weirdybeardyman Thank you sir! My objective with this game was to make it enjoyable for about 5-10 minutes, so mission accomplished! <3
You combined these two themes perfectly! Really love the concept.
@Bitten Toast Games thank you so much! :D
I loved it! what a great game. I like the SFX and the style, It would be really fun to play this 5v5 or even 3v3 with people. The AI is very impressive. I can imagine the commentary about more built out gameplay and levels. "He's going middle but there is 3 sand traps, not a great idea....
Great game, it's fun and addictive, the AI is really good and I just love to dash and whack 'em in the face hahaha! Great job!
@tigerj Thank you! I'd really love to expand this game, it's in my to-do list before I die now!
@Rha Thanks a lot! The most satisfying thing that you should be able to do in any game is to smack a large amount of faces consecutively x3
As if golf wasn't hard enough, now I have to give people concussion. It is really fun, but since I fail hard at golf, I focused on hitting the opponent and we won (1-0). The gameplay, art and sfx is really well done and polished. This game really need a multiplayer mode.
@Yetman Hahah, I'm glad you enjoyed beating the devil out of the AI x3
After 5 or 6 multiplayer requests, now I'm legally obligued to implement it, right?
Awesome game! Had a lot of fun playing! Great Job!!!
I'm watching someone play it on Twitch and I need to play this. Amazing job with the music, very fluid animations. I love it! 5 stars
Fukcing insane, when it comes out? xD. It could be in steam like early access, 5/5
Loved the concept, it's fun and cool :D ! Like many other, I think that a multiplayer mod should exist for this game, playing with firend might be very fun.
My god this game is fire. I was here to play a little to can rate and I spent a lot of time playing xD Good dammit job with this game!
Great game! The music is a straight banger.
I loved that "Jet Set Radio" overall visual and music/ambiance/FX style ! I realluy catch me on (+ I work on a golf game too, so, I HAD to play this game) and the result was pretty cool ! A clever idea, well implemented, with the main feature who makes the game works ! I made a whole match , and I get in the mood to play it and enjoy it !
In the bad part : the "one , two, three, go" was too quick, so we see that there is 2 team, but the "2" who appear hide the ball, so the second camera position doesn't seem to have sense and we don't nescessarly know there is a ball on the beginning of the match (the blue circle help a little ).
Pretty fun game, the AI was clueless at times so nut much strategy need but it was action-packed enough to keep me on my toes.
It was a fun play. The concept is innovative and theme is nice.
It was a fun play. The concept is innovative and theme is nice.
There's a lot to like here! The concept is good and I think could actually be expanded to a full game.
The part that needs the most work in my opinion is hitting the ball, it seems very hard to get even remotely anywhere you'd want.
This was fantastic! Great idea that was well executed. Only issue was that I found it a little frustrating that the ball bounced off of invisible walls. Seriously though, one of the most fun games I've played in LD.
@amigopadilha @rayne @cristhor98 @ultrabill @ethereal-psyche-games @trivial171 @subhajit-nath Wow! Thank you all for the love, seriously <3 <3
@ribout-horace Thank you for the feedback! I'm glad you liked the aesthetics ^^ You're totally right about the 2 hiding the ball, and I'm thinking about removing every text in the countdown and using some "traffic light" system like in Mario Kart instead. We'll see how that goes!
@listonos Thank you! Yes, the AI is pretty dumb, but holds the player for a match or two. Glad you liked it!
@arzi Thank you a lot! Yes, the angle is a bit off and maybe the power bar goes too fast, I'll try to improve it for the next release!
@eitrius I'm really glad you liked it! The invisible walls were the solution to a big problem where the ball just falls off almost at every shot. I agree that it's frustrating sometimes, and I think it really is a level design problem: a level without those big holes shouldn't need invisible walls, and would be funnier to play with it. Thank you for the feedback!
Awesome take on a MOBA genre, well done! you should work on this in the future.
Very good job! I liked mood in general. Hope you slept some hours during the 50h time dev
@shelvid Thank you so much! I really enjoyed watching you play it <3 @guy-withivy Thank you! Yeah, I slept a little bit x3
Cool! The art and music are great -- the aesthetic reminds me a lot of Jet Set Radio.
Full five-on-five multiplayer w/ some more polish/mechanics and different characters w/ abilities... you could have an awesome golf MOBA! Something I'd like to play :smile:
Also, we made a golf game too - [Golf with Guns](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/untitled-fpsg)
That music was HYPE! Very fun stuff - impressive that you pulled off that AI within the timeframe! Great work!
Super nice game! 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=0cwbDpVj28g
Great entry! Loved the concept and the feel.
Insanely cool game! The idea alone is gold, but the execution is even better! You managed to make an AI that is actually fun to play against! Though I totally wish I could play this against human opponents.
Graphics and especially audio are extremely well done, too! Awesome entry, love it. Have a fish <3 🐟
@diptoman Thank you! I'm really glad you loved the music <3
@jupiter-hadley Thanks! I've seen your gameplays and they're lovely <3
@quijipixel Thank you so much!
@beebo-studios wow, thank you for your kind words! The real multiplayer is on its way, so stay tuned!
@issac Thank you! It's super exciting to see other golf games in this LD :D
Good job! Cool game! I think it would be very insane if they had more balls at the same time.
I left my rating of your game, if you can leave your feedback in our game, Witch's Escape.
I hope you continue with the project.

I had a lot of fun playing it actually, well done! It was a bit hard to hit and take the ball and also shooting it, very fast actions in short time. But lovely idea and fun :)
I like very much the cartoon style! The graphics are cool, the mechanics and the AI very polished. This game is challenging and very funny! I don't know if you are not setting the camera right behind the player on purpose, when shooting, but it's good because it adds more challenge! Very good work!
This is a really good entry here! Very dynamic and it's a pleasure to kick some golfers when I don't have the time to reach the ball. Controls are pretty cool and game is polished as well. I didn't notice there's a indicator to show the ball direction at first so I've tried to follow AI and sometimes they seem to be a bit lost XD. Music atmosphere fits the concept entirely.
Great job!
Haha, what a mad game! The web version actually ran perfect for me, and I managed a narrow 1-0 victory. Probably be great in multiplayer, although I'd prefer it if once you were taking a shot nobody could knock you off the ball, maybe just get in a position to block you? Anyway good job, we all know that golf games are the best :wink:
Wow this was a lot of fun.
The menu really reminds me of Jet Set Radio, which is an easy way to get straight to my heart.
I would like to give feedback but i cant think of anything that will improve the gameplay. I can only rate. A very polished entry to LD#41. I hope you make this local and online multiplayer. :100: :thumbsup:
The music fit the game really well! Gave a good sense of hectic gameplay, and I thought the AI was also done really well. If I had to give some critique, I felt the the movement was a little slippery, and could be fine tuned slightly, but it's a very minor gripe.
