Interesting game with intuitive controls. I enjoyed myself, but I couldn't really connect what I was doing to success - the mushroom count each turn didn't seem to match either the stumps or the mushrooms I had in my color - was I collecting them somehow after turning them to my color, or did the color not matter? I wasn't clear on the goals, which might have been helped if you had some more clear positive feedback when you do something good. I didn't know how to switch clubs or how that was supposed to work, although the interface was otherwise very clear and easy to use. Nice work!

Interesting gameplay. It would be interesting to see where this idea could go with more development. I agree with dob that it was a little unclear how I was doing in the game relative to my opponent. Clearer feedback would help that. I also took a bunch of shots before I realized that after the first click, you can aim your shot. Some visual feedback would also help with that (i.e. an arrow that pops up when you're in aiming mode), but I understand you can't always get everything you want into a compo game. Overall great effort!!!
