    Oh, in cool shit I totally forgot 😅 Cursed to Golf is one of the first ever titles to be given away in Nintendo's new "Game Trials". You can play the entire game for free if you have NSO. Try it out! (Then buy it at 75% off lol).

    Today marks the official 2-year anniversary of Cursed To Golf! In celebration, here's the very first mockup I drew for the game when I was asked to make pixel art for it. A whole lot of things changed in the final but some things like the golf ball moon were there right from the start.

    Ended up checking out how well Cursed to Golf ran on Switch 2 over the weekend. Ran really well, but not only that I played an entire run through... man, hindsight really is 20:20. I haven't checked it out since I left to start Denki. But, it really is a neat little game, proud of what it became 😊

    Also if you disagree that’s fine dialogue is important to that maturity. Reminds me when a game dev podcast didn’t have us as a guest after Cursed to Golf because one of the hosts “hated it”. That would make for a great episode to me! I’d learn where I went wrong & get to discuss my design choices

    While both games use golf mechanics they are quite different, Cursed to Golf isn't an RPG and is 2D not top-down like Golf Story, Cursed to Golf is a roguelike game that can be challenging at times so if you're into those type of games I'd definitely give it a try 👍🏼

    Thanks! TBH I straight up forgot to set the launch discount, and I can't do another sale for 30 days, so hopefully I'll be able to discount it for the Xmas sale! Price point: The most similar game in the genre is Cursed to Golf, which is $20 (currently $4 on sale). Also based on playtime ~3-6 hours

    9. Cursed to Golf (Steam) This was a very different approach to a golf game! The power ups and wacky levels, as well as the boss characters, make this game something special. My only issue is that it's a Roguelike. The idea of failing and having to reset put me off playing it more.

    I managed to finish the entirety of Cursed to Golf through the NSO game trials, and as frustrating as it could get at times, it's such a smartly designed game and I really enjoyed it. I will say though I don't think it needed to be a roguelike and I don't really intend on going through it again.

    31) Cursed To Golf I came SO CLOSE to tapping out on this game due to the initial difficulty, but once you get the knack for it, this 2D golf platformer is honestly a lot of fun. Challenging, but fun. I think ultimately I would have preferred it NOT be a roguelike, but it works as one nonetheless.

    This was absolutely my experience with the game Cursed to Golf. Bold idea to make a golf roguelite but I don't think it actually really works because then it just feels like a golf game that's actively punishing you for playing it like a golf game.
