Golfing In Aether Update Released [1.3.0]

The second free expansion to Golfing in Aether is here, introducing a winter theme along with several new levels. Theres is also a fair bit to talk about with there being a christmas gift log-in event, the deluxe edition getting updated with extra customization and the game also being on sale for 50% off. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2168441/Golfing_In_Aether__Winter/

Free DLC - 9 New Levels and Winter Theme


Above is a link to the free DLC (it should be downloaded automatically). The levels will work in both the new winter theme shown or in the previous spring and autumn themes.




The level breakdown is one late game level, then five early and three mid game levels. The total number of levels in the game is now 50 excluding variations. As this is a free DLC, both achievements and the store page have been updated to factor in these new levels. Hope you enjoy playing these levels, I'm fully open to feedback on any of them :) Hitting the 50 levels milestone means the game does have a fairly good level selection with it taking several sessions worth of random levels before you encounter a repeat level. You can of course also play each of these new levels individually via practice mode and compete against other players via the leaderboards. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1914980/view/3613605906276984454

Above is a link to a seperate blog post discussing a christmas event currently active. Essentially if you play the game between now and January 15th you will unlock a Candy ball customization gift automatically.
The above image is of the balls you can unlock. These are only available via this event and for a limited time. You have till January 15th to play the game and get the gift.

Patch Notes


General


  • Added support for Christmas Gift Event.
  • Added support for Free Winter DLC, which includes the Winter Seasonal theme and 9 new levels.
  • Added five holiday themed quick chat messages including Merry Christmas!, Happy Christmas!, Happy New Year!, Happy Holidays!., and Bah Humbug.. You can find these using the search function on keyboard (5 key), or add them to your quick chat choices under game settings if using gamepad.
  • Added internal stat for number of different themes/seasons played.
  • Added improved packing to the decal faceplate texture.

Customization


  • Added Christmas candy themed ball unlockable by completing Christmas gift event.
  • Added three Christmas themed balls as part of the Deluxe Edition (different to the event ball).

Environment


  • Added improved tangents to the ramp in Goofy Golf. While not immediately apparent with darker grass, it showed up looking rather poor once testing with snow added so I reworked it.
  • Added improved tangents to various hole meshes.

Interface


  • Added option to select new Winter theme when starting either a session or practice.

Golfing In Aether - Christmas Gift Event

As a Christmas gift, by launching the game between now and January 15th will automatically unlock a Candy themed ball customization. Enjoy! This is a pretty straight-forward event but I'm creating a post to answer any questions you may have and so the event duration can be tracked.

Christmas Gift Event


What do I have to do?


To get this gift simply launch the game and it will become automatically unlocked as you reach the main menu.

What do I get from doing this?


You unlock the above ball customization which is a single design featuring color customization.

How do I track my progress?


You should see the Candy customization unlocked right away. However to check, simply start any session or practice game and look through the ball customization to find it.

How long will it take me to complete this event?


You only have to launch the game and reach the main menu, so seconds at most.

How long does the event last?


The event will conclude on January 15th giving you more than a month to complete it. This is indeed a long time, but will mean any players who purchase the game over Christmas and New Year also have a few weeks to obtain it. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1914980/view/3613605906276861875

Is that it?


Check out the above post for the major update and free winter expansion release which brings both a new Winter theme and several new levels all completely free.

Public Linux Depots:
  • DunGen VR Depot [902.67 M]
Game is not tagged as available on Linux on Steam.
Linux is not in the OS list.
  • Unique overall course layout for each session. Golfing In Aether accomplishes this through having each of the holes being its own independent floating island. The game will choose these at random from a pool at the start of a session and procedurally create the overall course layout.
  • Get-together with friends in sessions supporting up to 16 players online and 4 players locally. You can take any additional local players into online sessions with you. Online sessions also support joining as a spectator.
  • Freedom to choose different modes such as playing together in real time (local players use split screen) or taking it in turns via hotseat.
  • Compete against ghosts in practice mode for the top spot in an individual level with both global and friends only leaderboards.
  • Replay your previous sessions via the session replays feature. This allows you to spectate previous sessions you've played with options such as being able to see from another players perspective, use free camera, and the ability manipulate playback rate.
  • Customize through a range of color-pickable designs for your golf ball. Five designs are available from the start with others being unlocked as you earn XP through playing and level up.
  • Accessible with full gamepad support through the inclusion of an on-screen keyboard and ability to create local player profiles for saving any customizations, player names or gamepad settings.
