I ended up really disliking my road trip game, so I'm experimenting some more. Cooked a quick A* implementation, it's such a pain to set up but it's much nicer than Unity NavMesh. (It mostly works :P)

Target is getting a minor addition, multipliers! They multiply your score. And yes it is cumulative (all by x2), so a multiplier 4 * this powerup would be 8, thus leading to an x8 score (if you can land safely).

Harvested the black hole shader from my prototype, one of my favorite shaders. It's both mesmerizing and terrifying (fairly simple too).

Perfectly normal game of golf (still working on some camera issues)

Huge progress 🎯! The target minigame touch up is nearly complete. I basically coded the entire thing from scratch. It's really fun now! This is how I wanted it in the game jam but time made it difficult.

Spent the remainder of the night making some fun unlockables (if a bit silly), also spent more time on the remix mode. I added this lava lake section, I think it looks nice (GIF).

Working on making an elevation view, camera stuff, and different clubs. Very inspired by Mario Golf, and also just golfing games in general.

It's here! The largest update yet. Includes 8 ball pool, fishing, a sandbox mode, and a hard mode! (+ Many fixes and QOL) Patch notes below.

In editor footage of controller support on UI

It will only support Xbox controllers natively.

No longer forcing 4:3. Also added this jump particle. Also didn't mention this in the last post, but the outline is procedural, so it works on custom characters too.
