Spacegolf! is a game about golfing in space. By using a genius mad scientist's technology, it is possible to give life to lifeless planets! The two robots are always there to help with a tricky course or to break up the monotony on the ship. The mad scientist will send transmissions to the ship to check up on your progress, but he may have deeper motivations that it initially appears.
Each planet has its own gravity that will effect the trajectory of the ball. The planets also have different surface properties that can affect the ball's movement. Each combination of gravity and planet surface creates unique challenges. Try to become a master of Spacegolf! if you dare.
Gameplay Overview:
As expected in golf, the goal of each hole is to get the ball into the hole in the fewest strokes possible. As the name of the game implies, it's not just golf. Each planet has different properties that will affect the trajectory and flight of the ball.
Aim the ball and control the shot strength by moving the mouse away from the ball. The strength and angle will be indicated on screen, but all hole properties will need to be accounted to achieve the intended trajectory.
Gravity: The planets making up each hole have gravity that varies in strength and affected area. The area and amount of gravity must be accounted for to achieve the desired shot. Be mindful about whether a planet's gravity is weak, intense, or even anti-gravity.
Surface properties: The planets are made up of different materials that will affect how the ball behaves once it lands on a planet. Some planets are made of grass which results in a more typical golfing surface while other planets are made of lava which does not allow the ball to land. Sandy planets, rocky ones, or even icy ones are all in the mix which will affect what happens to the ball once it comes in contact with a planet.
Motion: Planets in space aren't always stationary. Planets often have orbital patterns that make the hole have an element of randomness and chance. Watch the patterns carefully and time your shot.
