Down Golf 🏌️‍♂️⛳

A unique 2D platforming and golfing game created for Ludum Dare 57 game jam with the theme "depths".

About the Game

Down Golf combines platforming mechanics with golf gameplay. You must navigate through 2D platforming levels while also getting your golf ball to the hole. The twist? Each new level takes you deeper below the previous one, creating an ever-descending challenge.

Controls

• Move: Left/Right arrow keys or A/D
• Jump: Up arrow key or W

The menu shows your total score in each level. 💯

Known Issues

• Sometimes the ball can get stuck inside a wall, especially when it bounces on a trampoline. I tried fixing this but failed. I don't understand why it is happening, the ball is just Godot's RigidBody2D and I also enabled continuous collision detection, as you can see here.
