really tried to hear this one out, was not worth the time. The golfing boils down to right click and swing, with no real way to guess where or how fast your going. The horror aspect is being chases around the map by a guy dressed as a giant golf ball and a fish with legs. The golf ball makes zero sound when walking so you just get jumped every other attempt. You cant run either and the enemies go the same speed as you so trying to outrun the enemies is a joke, sure there's lockers to hide in but once your caught your marked to instant death anyways so whats the point. So you either let yourself die or you just tweak the fuck out so the enemy's pathfinding resets. There's 3 extra campaigns they added but I couldn't even bring myself to finish the base game so whatever.

yikes. i don't know how this was recommended to me and i knew the level of the dev's skill (Or lacktherof) going into it..but i figured, what the heck - ive played many lofi games like this that have really surprised me....well, this one surprised me in that it got a decent amount of hype from lovecraftian-game fans...and yet, its absolute shit. my time is more valuable than it would take to refund this (but not more valuable to steer people away from spending more than a ten US cents on it).
This should be free to 0.50 cents.
the experience (what little there is) is both disappointing and tedious. there are no scares. no hint of lovecraft or a lovecraftian atmostphere (random soundbytes and meme horror doesn't count as eldritch cosmic mind-melting genre that is true lovecraftian fiction)...i would say, i'd like to see more from this dev before passing harsh judgement but this is such a bad first impression that i doubt i'll ever think about this (or the dev) again...if i do come across this person's work, i'll likely give it wide berth.
hate to tear apart someone's work like this but it wasn't hard work so i don't care.
(and yes, i could have done better. have done better and still, wouldn't have had the balls to post such garbage onto steam despite it being better than this)

Not a very scary game.. more so annoying. Good concept of a game, thought it'd be more of a jumpscare horror game but more of stealth and monsters chase after you the entire time. There aren't many practical places to hide in and you can get stuck trying to get through bushes. The monsters run a bit too fast that it's impossible to really hide or run away from them from chasing you so it gets frustrating having to start over so often.
You're stuck guessing what to do most of the time and the golf ball mechanics are very sensitive. I typically enjoy golf games but the the controls and sensitivity of trying to hit the golf ball made it really unenjoyable really quick.
