Adding a comment to confirm that the solution on this page works in macOS Catalina (10.15.5). Thanks for posting a solution so I could enjoy your game!
Hi, we'll need to discuss this with the rest of the team and think about that, but for now the Android version is available on the Play Store: http://g.co/play/golfpeaks
I'm on world 3 right now... and this game is absolutely wonderful. I adore virtual golf and puzzle games, and this game is really easy to get into, but keeps you on your toes a bit with adding new things. So far there have been a few levels which have been a bit eh either because they just feel bland or they felt too easy compared to levels before and after them, but overall a fun game!!
Also the aesthetic and the music is absolutely baller. Love the very simple yet pleasing art style, and the music changing in certain worlds is super cool and helps make it not feel repetitive.
I got this game as part of the Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality and it is fantastic! I love the look of it. The puzzles are fun and challenging. Just an overall awesome puzzle game!
A good and polished game. I enjoyed it. Some levels are only lukewarm though. It lacks more levels which are fun to solve, involve more creative puzzles and new ideas.
I just purchased the game and downloaded the mac version but my mac is telling me that the application cannot be opened. What could be happening? Any help appreciated! :)
I looked into the issue on a 2017 MacBook Air and the game launched fine, but you might need to grant a security exception to the app (because of the OSX security policies): https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mh40616/mac
If that doesn't help, please let us know at golf@afterburn.games
As mentioned to you on our Discord, doing a proper Linux version would force us to halt all other development (meaning, working on our current project) for an indefinite period of time (anywhere from a week to a month). Unfortunately, our team is not big enough to be able to keep working on new stuff while also delegating someone to research Linux support.
Since we are not using the platform ourselves and thus cannot really guarantee doing a proper native Linux port, we've opted not to make one. We've got accounts of people saying that they've had no issues emulating the game on Linux via Proton, but for obvious reasons we cannot give any guarantees of that working across all distributions and driver configurations.
Really great puzzler that uses some golf concepts, like resetting just before you fell into water, to evolve the mechanics in really fun and intuitive ways.
The card selection for which action might feel gimicky, but really it's a smooth way to select your actions and the game has a great flow to it. Especially with quality of life stuff like the last remaining action/card being automatically selected so you can quickly push through to the levels end.
Just really wish there were more levels. It feels like the mechanics there could have so many more levels built with them in mind, a level creator would just be the best. Either way it was a fun and engaging couple hours with mechanics and ideas introduced at a steady pace, strongly recommended!

Any chance to make it run on MacOs Catalina ?
Hi, we still need to investigate their recent changes to app building & notarization, but in the meantime you might be able to make it work by following this guide: https://howtomacos.com/2019/02/24/fix-the-application-cant-be-opened-on-mac/
Let us know if it fixes the issue for you!
Wow, it did work, thanks !
Glad it works now! :)

Lovely little puzzle game, highly recommend giving it a go. Each world adds an interesting new mechanic to tickle your brain.
Thank you for the kind words, glad you enjoyed the game :)
Have you considered putting the .apk here too? Seems like a perfect mobile game!

Fantastic game. My wife thought me getting so many games was silly, but this one she was like, wow, that looks great. Thank you!
Thanks, glad to hear you both enjoyed it :)

I really want to buy that, but why is there no Linux port?
It's already on Android, so porting it to Desktop Linux shouldn't be a problem.

neat, mobile release? =)
We're out on iOS and Android! :)
nice!
This is a fantastic puzzle game and believe my review reflects this: https://humbleisbumble.blogspot.com/2019/04/golf-peaks-review.html
Thanks for posting the review! :)
Why doesn't it say anywhere that this is also on Switch? It doesn't even show up on the eshop savings app.
Hey, good point, updated the description with Switch and Android links. Not sure what you mean by the "eshop savings app" though.
Hi itch.io and afterburn
in this price you are giving complete source code (project) for downloading or this is for playing on windows and mac
Hey, no source code or assets are included - you're only able to download ready executables for Win and Mac.
Will there be a level editor in the future?
Hey, we don't have any plans for that at the moment, but we'll do a proper announcement if anything changes :)
For now, please enjoy today's update adding 12 new, challenging levels!
reminds me of marble madness
:D

Glad you liked it. We're planning to release more levels for free soon, so look forward to that :)
Wow, super excited for that :D. For free even is really generous, thanks a lot for your efforts :)!
Will be there an android version?
Hey, we're looking into it but we don't have any specific plans at the moment :)
EDIT: it's out! http://g.co/play/golfpeaks
Great game! Check out my video review to get an idea if it's for you!
Very nice game! I've play the beta on steam and I like it!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it :)
