Watching the video, my first thought is, "Portrait mode?" Unless there's a lot of verticality to the levels, this seems like an odd choice. But again, I don't play a lot of golf games on iOS. Maybe this is normal. Ghostdog1 likes this. Ghostdog1 Well-Known Member Jan 30, 2015 319 124 43 #3 Ghostdog1, Mar 4, 2021 i tried the game and its really a bad design choice to make a golf game in portrait mode. But to top bad design choices off this game gives you no option to view the course before hitting. You just have to guess where it will land. Deleted after the fifth hole.

But I do agree there needs to be a way to see the whole hole or zoom in and out. Makes the game more trial and error than skill. orangecan Well-Known Member Aug 9, 2011 2,000 150 63 #5 orangecan, Mar 4, 2021 Yeah I’ve just taken the plunge as well, I agree with both the comments above - I’m also find the ball physics not quite there. I’ve played 4 or 5 holes and I’m honestly struggling to think of a reason to carry on. It’s not awful, it’s not even bad it’s just not quite there and has been done far better before (super stickman golf for example) Collin likes this.
