The first update is complete, below is a list of the improvements. - First hole marker for each course is now larger and spinning. This makes it easier for first time players to find their way through the course. - Oversized golf balls appear throughout the game, these provide a sort of hacky sack, "keep it up" game, play element. A score counter increases once they are in the air, and reset to zero once they touch the ground again. - The sizing of the score counters was adjusted to correspond with a greater number of display resolutions. - General Improvements

Rocket Golf is now officially available. While the Early Access period went on longer than I had intended, I promise it was for good reason. As I neared the end of beta testing, a few problems remained. One was a very rare physics breaking glitch, the second was a needed game play component allowing players to fast travel. The first issue was resolved and the second was implemented. I cannot say how much I appreciate everyone that reached out during Early Access. Thank you. * Don't hesitate to reach out in the future!

This is the largest update to date. 1. When playing on easy (large) setting, the player can access a crosshair. I have been back and forth with this addition. I personally feel a crosshair makes the game a bit to easy, however multiple people made the request so it was implemented on the easy setting. 2. Collision is now only applied to the trunk and branches of the willow trees on the traditional course. 3. The Mouse disappears while in the game. 4. Improved options menu and functionality. A more in depth controls explanation can be discovered in the options menu. The annoying pause that occurred when first loading the options menu has been fixed. 5. Boundary colliders that were missing from the moon level are now present, honestly I don't know how I missed that one. 6. Further color correction. 7. Further Optimization. 8. Swapped out a few textures. 9. Remastered so audio 10. And much more. Thanks to everyone that got in touch with me.

The third update is done. This time its mostly been clean up.
1. The lighting and shadows were altered and improved in many scenes.
2. The audio was altered and improved in two scenes.
3. Platform independent splash images were added to the quality setting screen.
There is a new "Course Design" trailer on the Steam Page. This will likely be one of the last updates to Early Access.
Thanks again

I have just finished with the first round of fixes and changes. The Changes are: 1. Courses can now be exited after only playing 9 holes or 18 holes. 2. The hole displays on the classic course are 30% larger. 3. A settings menu has been added where you can invert look, change look sensitivity and mute music. 4. On the easy setting (large), players can now change golf balls to glass for enhanced visibility. Thank you to everyone that got in touch with me.

Experience a variety of golf courses ranging from classic to environments you never imagined playing golf in.
