I love playing against the ghosts of others and seeing how well I did. Billy Den Den Well-Known Member Jun 11, 2014 206 0 0 #6 Den Den, Sep 7, 2015 What a nice little gem. Lovely graphics and music, nice online implementation. There's also an IAP that removes ads (worth a purchase).

Grist Well-Known Member Nov 7, 2008 362 25 28 VP of Marketing Massachusetts #8 Grist, Sep 8, 2015 Ripoff I paid 99 cents to eliminate the annoyingly long video ads, but they continue to appear. vectorarchitekt Well-Known Member Dec 29, 2013 2,489 177 63 #9 vectorarchitekt, Sep 8, 2015 This is one strange game. I feel like when I get the ball in the hole it's like when they shut down the ghostbusters' containment Grist Well-Known Member Nov 7, 2008 362 25 28 VP of Marketing Massachusetts #10 Grist, Sep 8, 2015 Needs a few improvements Here are a few suggestions that might transform this game from a maddening exercise in frustration to enjoyably challenging: 1. Enable players to move a viewer around the entirety of each hole before taking a shot, instead of providing only a quick scan of the hole and then shifting to a close-up of the tee area that excludes all the hazards along each hole. 2. Implement a shot power gauge. It's impossible now to judge how much power is going to be applied for shots. 3. Don't force players to return to the tee every time a ball is struck into a water hazard. This becomes infuriating. 4. As I mentioned in a prior post, video ads continue to interrupt game play despite having paid to remove ads. superfluid Active Member Jun 24, 2015 32 0 0 UK http://superfluidgames.com #11 superfluid, Sep 8, 2015 Hey all thanks for the awesome comments! I make this game and I'm thrilled you've discovered it. @Grist I am SO sorry you've had a problem with the iAP. I tested this thoroughly (as will Apple have) so it is a shock and I will be investigating this immediately. Could I ask you to try the "restore a purchase" option available under the same button in game? Thank too for the awesome feedback! Jim Enamul Member Aug 10, 2015 7 0 0 California #12 Enamul, Sep 8, 2015 Love golf I have played many golf game but this one is the best.... im on it superfluid Active Member Jun 24, 2015 32 0 0 UK http://superfluidgames.com #13 superfluid, Sep 8, 2015 Huge apologies for this, have fixed the bug and submitted to Apple for review. In the meantime we have DISABLED ADS so enjoy a week's ad free golfing on us! ramon31 Well-Known Member Sep 4, 2011 843 0 16 Hortacultrist Australia #14 ramon31, Sep 8, 2015 I'm liking the game as it is, nice and simple. I would like an average shots per hole leaderboard for the first 50, 100, 200... holes Maybe some more achievements thrown in would be nice. I'm up to hole 109 at the moment. Well done on a great game. Bi88les Well-Known Member Jul 22, 2012 105 0 16 #15 Bi88les, Sep 8, 2015 Great game, I'm addicted! But, I should be able to look at the course before taking my first shot. After a water hazard, I should really be placed back to where I took the shot from, NOT the very beginning. The water hazards "suck" in balls - I think the graphics don't portray the extent the water hazard has it's effect - they are WAY bigger than they are shown to be = very frustrating!! superfluid Active Member Jun 24, 2015 32 0 0 UK http://superfluidgames.com #16 superfluid, Sep 8, 2015 @Bi88les thanks! Omg resetting the ball pos to last shot pos from water hazard is the perfect solution, why this didn't occur to me I have no idea! I've got the course preview sorted for the new version out in a few days, the camera pans more slowly and follows the course properly so you can really aim that first shot with much more confidence. I'm wary of a "free look" mode as I like how it flows and don't want to interrupt that with some mode switching @ramon will do these or similar, thank you! I made the game in 48h for Ludum Dare so didn't have much time for niceties Thanks all for the brilliant feedback! H4nd0fg0d Well-Known Member Mar 30, 2010 1,905 0 36 #17 H4nd0fg0d, Sep 8, 2015 Oh ya, I'm having a golf ball with this. superfluid Active Member Jun 24, 2015 32 0 0 UK http://superfluidgames.com #18 superfluid, Sep 8, 2015 Tricky decision - any advice? Hey all, dev here. I need your opinions! We can change MiniGolf MMO so that when you enter water, your ball is repositioned from where you hit the shot (with extra penalty stroke a la Real Golf (tm)) - BUT - this will invalidate the scores of everyone who's played on and paid those extra shots to beat the water hazards ... I really am not sure about this. The most dedicated players would be hardest hit, and those that have gone furthest would have the biggest pill to swallow reinstalling the app to start again. I'm just not comfortable putting people through that.... Also, the tension when you finally beat those multi-water holes is heightened without what would effectively be 'save points'. What do you think? Let me know! jibjelly Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2015 356 0 0 #19 jibjelly, Sep 8, 2015 Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel Den Den Well-Known Member Jun 11, 2014 206 0 0 #20 Den Den, Sep 8, 2015 A free look shouldn't be implemented IMHO, maybe a slower moving camera at the beginning, but the current way adds to the challenge, it should remain as is (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
