Golf Rush is meant to be a Golf Sim Platformer, with all the joy and frustration which this entails

Of course, this is golf, so you'll go through 18 randomly-generated levels in this game

The hero of this story is Tiger Woods himself, a beast as adept with golf balls as he is with bombs



Controls:

Left and Right Arrow Keys - Movement

Down Arrow Key - Drop Bomb

Space Bar - Jump (hold to charge)

Left Alt Key - Swing golf club (hold to gauge swinging force - a strong enough force can break terrain)

(also u can instantly win by pressing up :DDD)

The game was uploaded quite in a hurry, but we're working on a late Windows port

The pixel art and animation is fantastic! I love the details on the main character, esp. how his tail waggles a bit as he walks. Also, the controls have excellent weight to them. Holding the spacebar to jump higher, plus the screenshake on big jumps and landings really makes you feel like a beast walking around the course.

Ball/hole indicators would be helpful. I didn't want to have to search around the level for the hole, or the ball when I lost it, which happened a few times. An easier way to aim would be helpful too. Holding alt for the power meter feels nice, but I wanted some way to aim high/low instead of just weak/strong.

Overall, this could use some polish on the golfing mechanics, but it's really satisfying to just walk/jump around and swing your club and blow stuff up. Nice entry!
