Golf Monday

Hell is other golfers!

Cool little game that's probably not worth the price of admission, but does feature a unique shot mechanic I haven't experienced in a golf game before. Might be worth picking up if you like supporting small experimental stuff.

pretty silly. had a good time

Golf Monday is a super sized pico 8 game by Johan Peitz. If you are not aware of what Pico 8 is, it's a fantasy console for making, sharing and playing tiny games.

Limited in size, graphics etc which means the developer needs to get a bit crafty and think differently.

Delightful PICO-8 game that's full of charm, and a genuinely very good casual golf game underneath too. Has a really cool balance of golfing mechanics and silly world simulation. Make sure you grab a golf cart and be nice to the other golfers.

It's really good, I don't think it's worth the price though. I mean it's 6.50 (in CAD) for probably around 1 hour of gameplay. It's still amazing though.
