Note: the web version can be sluggish or jank at times (especially in trickshot city)! I recommend playing the desktop version.

Get the ball into the hole in as few strokes as possible!

Made for the Spring Lisp Jam 2024. My initial plan was much inspired by Kirby's Dream Course (SNES). Like in that game, I planned to add enemy types that you must defeat before the hole is available, but with combat expanded in some ways. And instead of copy abilities, I have a system based around picking up items spread throughout the course and use them to affect the trajectory, kill enemies, or modify the course terrain in some way. Unfortunately I was low on time by the time I got the basics working such as physics and rendering that I settled on something closer to old-fashioned minigolf, but with spin and flying shots. I might come back to this later and explore these ideas though.

Controls:

Arrow keys to navigate menu and move ball.

Left, Right - adjust angle
Hold Shift - fine tune angle or camera
Up
- change to flying shot
Down - change to rolling shot
X - confirm, shoot ball
Z - cancel ongoing shot
Hold Z + arrow keys - set ball spin
Hold C + arrow keys - move camera

My scores:

Here's the best scores I got while play-testing full runs. Can you beat them?
