Today Im happy to announce the release of Golfing in Aether running natively on Linux, and that includes SteamOS. An open beta was previously run with no outstanding issues found at this point. |
In todays update I've added one of the major features of the season one development roadmap, the shared input mode. This essentially allowing you to play pass-the-pad local multiplayer with a single controller during turn based play. In case you didn't already know, Golfing in Aether already has split screen local multiplayer, and this new shared input mode is an additional way of playing.

For this update Ive gone and tidied up the LODs of the various wall meshes, especially from the point of view of when you look at other islands. Now youll be able to see the actual brick detail rather than the previous flat surface appearance, there will also be more stand-out detail such as the white of pipes preserved. Originally the game did look similar to this if you played way back with the Next Fest Demo but there were a few generation problems that required fixing.

Last week in the Season 1 Development Roadmap post I said I'd share some development screenshots and talk a bit more about what the in development expansion will include. Today I can show off both the overall Autumn season and two of the levels, there is also a teaser video at the end of this post showing parts of the levels being played. |

Small update with a mixture of fixes and some tweaking of the scoring values based on feedback. Id already made some animations for Eagle and Double Bogey and so on but just forgotten about them. But after it was brought to my attention I got those fixed up and implemented fully. I would like to make additional animations so theres more variation for all existing categories at some point, its on the list of things to get done just not top of the priority list.

This is a small update that contains various fixes as well as makes a couple changes to the level 'Bogeytown' after playtesting it a bit more. I've changed the camera sequence as I felt it was a bit erratic in the later half and I've also changed one of the mover obstacles to make the hole-in-one a slightly bit easier to pull off outside of practice mode.

Ive reworked the level Speed Bump as I thought it could be a little more interesting, it was also very easy at first, so Ive tweaked that ;) I went and made a new obstacle type which is the vertical movers which raise and lower blocking parts or all of path depending on configuration. Ive replaced a couple of the regular movers with these on the levels Water Hole and Rock Bottom just to give a bit more diversity.
