This is a polished mini game where you most likely will grind leaderboards for one night or play wiith friends a couple of times. Hopefully there will be more blocks/variety.

Really solid, quality golfing game! Honestly love this way more than golf with friends. Only issue is performance is a bit intense when doing split screen, but nothing huge.

Superb mini-golf / crazy golf game. Pretty graphics, beautifully designed holes, and lots of them. A decent number of holes to try out in the free demo; I played that for about 30 minutes then immediately bought the full game. Very affordable price, too.

**** NOTE: This review was this games FIRST STEAM REVIEW! ****
A very competent miniature golf game with tons of options and settings to customize your game to your hearts content!
While this game lacks the depth of the more popular "Golf With Your Friends" title here on Steam, it is a very good... and more realistic looking golf game made with the Unreal engine. It's a lot of fun and I play though the game solo on its launch day in this video just to take a look at its overall quality and options:

The developer stated there are 36 different holes in the game here at launch and stated that more are on the way, the first additional holes comes next month in October.
After my first play solo, I believe that right now this game might already be the 2nd best miniature golf game that you can play online with friends only coming in behind the double-the-price "Golf With Your Friends". For fans of that game, this game should be a very nice option just to change things up a bit and get some different holes and a little different physics than you're use to.
I like this one a lot, and from the sounds of it, this one is only going to get better and more depth as time goes on and more people purchase, play, and support it!
MY LAUNCH DAY FIRST IMPRESSIONS SCORE: A solid 8 out of 10 (and likely to go higher as more holes and content is added as more updates come in from this indie developer)
...Solid purchase and well worth the asking price! If you love miniature golf games and love playing with friends, this should be an easy decision to add to your Steam library!

I like it. Reminds me of the old nabisco mini putt flash game. Split screen is awesome with my wife. Been playing on the steam deck too, works good.

Enjoying just practicing the holes, looking for ways to get hole-in-ones.
VETRON! What kind of hax you using to get those scores? I get holes in one in less than 5 sec and im still not breaking 800. What's the secret?

nice beautiful game (not as crapy as other mini golf game available). lots of fun with my girlfriend playing together on split screen with 2 controllers, played a lot the demo before release. So a must buy for us. Released version seems as good as the demo. so well spent money ;-)

I bought Golfing in Aether (GiA) as it reminded me of those old Vertigolf flash games that I was strangely fond of as a kid. I'm glad I did; I enjoyed it and I got to relive those past memories in a way. I hope this game gains more traction as it is a decent golf game and the devs are still adding content. Disclaimer: I played solo so I can't comment on the multiplayer but it looks easy to set up.
Nostalgia goggles aside, how does GiA hold up on its own and to other golf games on Steam? I'd say good enough. There's a surprising amount of individual holes (60) and 9 get randomly selected per mode you play, meaning you won't play the same selection twice which I really like. The game's atmosphere is relaxing, the aesthetics of the levels themselves are beautiful, and I like the XP and ranking systems they implemented to encourage replayability. Leaderboards per hole per difficulty are cool too.
The levels themselves aren't bad either, but overall a lot felt simple and some themes tended to repeat (e.g. there's 5 holes to pick from and one gives you the hole in one!). A couple of misspellings (e.g. tripple instead of triple) and a strange but humorous glitch where the UI to shoot will stay on the ball, but this only happened once and didn't adversely impact gameplay.
GiA is one of the more relaxing golf games I've played and is one I'll definitely pick up and play more often, especially if the devs expand on the quantity and complexity of the holes made.
[EDIT] Thank you to the dev for the fast and awesome response! Can't wait to see what you put out for the future of this game :)
