NTS Golf or Not That Sad Golf, is well- a 2D golf game. Unrealistic as can be? Propably. Fun? Go find out.

Play thru the first few level packs and then, maybe try making your own levels using the Level editor?

Currently features

  • 40  Levels in total
    • Instructions on how to add more levelpacks
  • a Level Editor
    • 3 "Your Level" slots to which you can save your makings
    • Instructions for the use of the editor in the menus "info" section.
  • Highscore system
    • Tracks and saves highscore per level and the best total play of the level pack
  • 4 object types
    • Wall, booster, sand and water
  • Clock(Don't ask why. Also, removed from the Windows port)

(Goal is to maybe make a game where people actually share levels with one another :D. Btw. My personal record for the level pack 1 is 32 total swings)

Web port

I Was too dumb to port the c++and sdl code to web or to android, so i remade the core gameplay in Godot Engine. Made a mobile port first and then thought that why not add a web version to this site.

Version 0.8 onward

  • Went from 10 max obstacles per level to 50
  • Reworked the code a lot. So differences in how the obstacles go over one another
  • Different compiler for windows version- sorry for the file size

Tools used

  • Geany and xed as a code editors
  • g++ for compiling the linux versions
  • Mingw32 used for compiling the windows ports
  • Gimp for all the .png files
  • SDL2, SDL2 -mixer, -ttf and -image for sound, font rendering and graphics
  • Audacity for sound recording
  • Font used: LeroyLetteringLightBETA01

Running on older Raspberry pi's (Tested on a b+)

Just so you know, it runs pretty well. Atleast on mine which has been overclocked to 800mhz. You need to use raspi-config thru the terminal and put hardware acceleration on as well as change from legacy to full kms driver, also maybe at YOUR OWN RISK do overclocking. Also, set the screens resolution as small as you can and and set the games resolution to the same and run it in fullscreen mode. Then, you should immediately mute the game as you open it, but it runs pretty well with the sounds on too.
