Quick Look: Golf Peaks

I had seen this on the eShop and had wondered about it. Nice, QL. :-)

Sometimes I just need to watch a short Quick Look before going to bed

Interesting gold puzzle game

I'm kind of disappointed this isn't some weird golf murder mystery with backwards talking people in rooms beyond time and space.

That is very appropriate title screen music for a golf game, so relaxing. :)

Shout out to Dan for that "(golf) seems like a hole to do" stealth pun.

put some respect on Desert Golfing's name

Oh this was very watchful Abby, I was also trying to solve it over here.

@utamaru: +1

I really need a Switch.

@someramguy: that puzzle you like is coming back in style

put that golf ball in that golf hole

If Jeff were on this QL he might have lamented the same notion seeing as he made a Laura Palmer wrapped in plastic joke on UPF.

Been playing this on my phone and I'm really enjoying it. Knocking out a few levels before bed has been a treat.

Its on all phones and computers (steam) as well.

This looks fun. Cheap also.

I was just thinking "This looks like it would be a great phone game" and then I checked and it is on phones. Perfect.

This game's awesome, I'm really glad they gave it some time on the site

Rufus McEnroe approved.

"Real" golf is awesome. Put aside the white-ness and the tacky pants. Go out to a range, take a lesson, and just try to make a solid stroke, get some good contact, and sail a ball neatly out to the net. Try to pitch a few balls within putting distance of a cup. If you do golf right it's about fun with friends, and a good time outdoors in the sunshine. It's like plenty of video games -- a "Zen" exercise of putting side your wonky impulses and getting your body to quickly do only what it needs to do to generate the desired effect.

@alex Desert Golf is the game you were thinking of. I played the heck outta that game, some 15k levels or so before the dreaded end state water level got me. R.I.P little white ball, we had a good journey together.

Puzzler

@chaosordeal Golf is the least 'zen' sport I've ever played. I never swear as much as when I play golf; we may as well rename it to 'fuck'.

Is this game a good fit for the Switch?

Does anyone know what "endless golf" game Alex is talking about?

This was great. I love seeing the occasional quick look of a small game with mechanics that are easy to explain and understand. I will be grabbing this for my switch and/or phone. Cool choice Abby.

Desert Golfing.

Thanks for pushing for more time on this, Dan. It should be known by now that people will watch anything.
