How does the game fit the theme?
The game is very physics-based, so it's easy to fumble something that looks like (and often is) an easy move. Initially we had more ambitious ideas for the story involving necromancy and rituals, but had to cut scope :'(
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Some basic general-purpose util code. Everything else was made bespoke for the jam in the week.

Like the idea of throwing myself !
It miss some guidance to know where to go, I feel I block myself in an area without any power.
Feel that when we die having a display of the last throwing arrow we used could be nice to adjust our next move
The game has a lot of potential! Had fun playing it, the throw takes some time to get used to but that's to be expected. The graphics are really cute, the audio was the only thing lacking but overall well done!
Played and rated! This was great, a unique blend of metrovania and golf! Gameplay was smooth, level design was nice, visuals were great, amazing effort!
The game mechanics for this game is really well done!!! I would love to explore more of this game.
The only feedback I have is the power scaling feels off, for the jump.
Overall, it's really amazing you guys made this in a week!!!
Wow! I can't believe I haven't seen a game like this before! An open world golf simulator is such a smart concept for a game! When you're first asked to zoom out and I could just keep zooming out it blew my mind! I had a lot of fun with this one and I might come back to try to get every single strawberry!
I love the game design of your game, I think I can learn of your game. good job
THIS IS VERY GOOD! I loved golf games so much, but I'd admit I sucked at playing them. I really like how you managed to combine golf and Metroidvania into a single game, and it works extremely well too! I am enjoying myself. Each of the power-ups really makes a difference to how you play the game, and it's so enjoyable to abuse them in order to navigate the world in an interesting way. This is so fun. The physics is nice, the graphics are adorable, and the small talk from the walruses are funny too. I can't praise enough the polish of the game, and it's such a shame not many people have played this masterpiece! 12 ratings are just criminally low. I'd say if the game is longer with more ability, and also some better UI, I'd definitely buy this on Steam. Well done!
I do have a minor criticism. Why is there a death-plane from the top of the tower? I want to fly myself from there to the meeting room so badly. There is also a strange issue where you got stuck and not triggering the large strawberry when using the heavy ability. I got out eventually bu double jumping, but it might be an issue if people get the heavy ability first.
Anyway, this is very nice and probably is one of the best games in this jam! Well done!
P.S. proof of completion
This is by far the most fun game I've played for this jam. It starts out making me think it was gonna be a slog to go through, but with the upgrades, you have a lot of control and it suddenly becomes super enjoyable! The size of the map and the tiling and art are very impressive, especially for being made in only a week. The friction on the surfaces is a very nice touch and while unrealistic, it makes it more fun and less frustrating because otherwise it would feel too slippery and waiting for the bug to stop would take more time. I wasn't able to get to the third upgrade because when i used the heavy ability at one of the big strawberries the game got softlocked and there was seemingly no way to restart without restarting the entire game, but fixing a bug like this is definitely not expected considering the tight timeframe and you did an absolutely outstanding job!
This is very impressive. I love genre mashups and this combination of golf and metroidvania is very clever. Awesome work!
incredibly underrated game, its quite rare to see a metroidvania in a game jam like this, let alone one this polished,you should all be very proud of yourselves!
I'm amazed how complete this game feels for a one week jam! I loved the artstyle, gameplay and general vibe, my only critique would be that the ground can feel a bit too friction-y maybe? aside from that, great job!
This game is so statisfying, wow! When I heard about the double jump I was praying you’d get the satisfying slow-motion double jump which we actually got. So good.
Well done you three :D Build it out with a couple more levels and some more storyline perhaps and you’ve got a solid game on your hands. Doesn’t even need menu’s. Okay.. Maybe to adjust the volume would be nice :)
Definitely needs more ratings!! Super tough but really fun controls especially after getting double jump, tons of content too!! Loved it :)
This was surprisingly awesome!
The concept is actually super addictive, the controls feel fair and fun, and there is a LOT of content for a 7 day jam. Very well done!
By far the most fun game I played this jam, the mechanics are phenomenally fun. Only mild issues I have is the lack of music, and the mismatching resolution between sprites.
Very good golf game! The power meter does seem a bit off but I could adjust to it very well.
Fun platform/golf game. The polish is great and I had fun traversing the map. I would say that the power arrow is slightly misleading as the length makes it seem like the ball will travel a lot further than it actually does, but once you get used to the power this isn't as much of an issue. Great entry!
