Void Golf is a little game about shooting giant pieces of space rock into black holes, using gravitational fields, physics-defying walls and wormholes.

As in traditional human golf, the fewer hits, the better.

No need to worry though, you can always hide the hit counter and just chill.


Controls

  • [Left click] to charge the shot.
  • [Spacebar] to reset an ongoing shot (the hit still counts, though!)
  • [H] to hide/show the hit counter.


You can play in your browser or download the game. Mac OS X and Linux versions weren't tested, so be prepared for the worst!

Great game! Super relaxing music, and the difficulty was just right, at least for me. It would definitely benefit from having some indication that there are… 30 levels, was it? It would give it a stronger sense of direction and purpose to the minute by minute playing. But definitely worth a play, I had a great time.

Thank you! Yeah, some kind of level counter would've definitely helped here. Also displaying the controls in-game, since it looks like some people didn't notice you can restart the shots.

True! I can't complain about that since discovering the spacebar resetting came fairly naturally to me.

Good game, I juts wish there was a restart button, because sometimes I click and the golf ball goes so slow, and I have to wait so long for it to crash so that I can have another go.

There is! Press space to immediately prepare the next shot.

(Parece ser que hablas español así que lo escribiré en español...) Es un muy buen juego, es simple y muy bien hecho, el diseño de niveles esta bastante bien y con una dificultad elevada pero no imposible, muy buen juego :)

Gracias por jugar, me alegro de que te haya gustado!

deberia haber un sistema de guardado de partida :(

Gracias por jugar! Normalmente se pueden completar todos los niveles de una sentada en menos de una hora, por eso no le metí guardado :p

This game is good the difficulty and the mechanics contrast well the feeling when you win a level is just sp satisfying the simplicity of the graphic and music are good for anyone on a device with poor performance also i think this game would have a gret port to ios and android if given the opportunity!

Hi men the game i present me a problem in the level 11 the game bug after 'x' shots can be a error for my PC

Hey. Can you be more specific? What happens exactly? Did you play in your browser or did you download the game?

The art and atmosphere are good, but it's too difficult. I don't know if you added a secret tutorial, but you're introducing new things too quickly. I made it to hole 4, knowing that the small grey rock can bend your trajectory. However, it didn't bend it enough and I didn't understand what the purple striped area does.

Sorry to hear that! The purple area is an ordinary obstacle, it makes you fail the shot so you have to use the planet's gravity to reach the black hole. It's just a matter of using the right power and direction. The game can be difficult sometimes, but eventually you can beat even the hardest level. Hope you give it another shot :)

Hey, love the atmosphere of this game. How'd you create the music? I'm new to music production but I've noticed what a huge impact it can have on atmosphere so any advice you've got on the subject would be appreciated.

Hey there! I'm a newbie too. I used Ableton Live for the music and the SFX. I had some ideas for the song, watched a couple of tutorials and the rest was just messing around with the program for hours. I'd say find some chords you like and build the song around them? Websites like this one can help a lot.

For this weeks Itch Dot Io Indie we answer the age old question 'What would happen if we played golf... in space'

Well with Cactusmancer's title 'Void Golf' we can finally know what it's like to fire our asteroid (golf balls are so 2019) into the deep depths of space; and track trajectories across the stars.

Like all great puzzle games mechanics you'll be smugly assured that you understand how everything fits together, and then 20 minutes later you'll be questioning your very sanity on how to properly navigate around planetary orbits to intercept black holes.

I may have lost my sanity but I loved every moment <3

Wow this is amazing! I honestly didn't expect anything like this. Void Golf is my first game so this means a lot. Glad you liked it :)

i got super far. its very unique and the ambiance is perfect.

NASA’s Perseverance rover launched for Mars back in August but it won’t arrive until early 2021. If you’re looking to have some of your own Martian fun, the iPhone game “Golf On Mars” has you covered with an almost infinite amount of holes on the red planet.

Golf On Mars is the follow-up to the popular Desert Golfing that originally launched in 2014 (via Daring Fireball).

For centuries, philosophers and mathematicians have gazed up at the night sky and wondered:

“Is there Golf On Mars?”

The year is 2866. Mars is 35% terraformed, finally enough to allow the playing of the game of.. Golf!

Golf across an infinite* rocky Martian surface. Discover golfing obstacles that make us Earthlings gasp in awe!

*Infinity is impossible to represent on any non-quantum computer. In actuality there are roughly 25,770,000,000 golf holes in this game.

Witty developer Captain Games has some fun describing the game and says that “Mars is par 3” after accounting for the gravitational differences with Earth, so par for the whole course is about 77 billion.

For example, if the ball is 16 pixels wide on your screen then the typical hole will be 1200 pixels away.
Scaling this to the size of a real ball (1.68 inches), it’s as if the hole is only 3.5 yards away!

A realistic 18 hole golf course where the fairways are 3.5 yards away would only require about 1300 square feet of land.
However, gravity on Mars is 38% that of Earth’s gravity, so you could hit a ball 7 times farther, or roughly 1400 yards for a good player.
This 18 hole course then needs to be to 64000 square feet. You could cover the entire surface of Mars with 241 billion of these golf courses.

Therefore, you could easily fit all the holes in Golf On Mars on the surface of Mars.

Mars is par 3, so aim to finish in under 77 billion strokes.

Golf On Mars is available as a $2.99 download for iPhone and iPad and is also available for Android on the Google Play Store.
