New power bar allows me to fully channel that big ball energy 😆

Keeping in line with current gaming hardware trends, I've cut holes in the balls in Mega Punchy Golf to make them lighter and statistically 3% more accurate.

That increase would've been 5% if I'd also added RGBs.

We let VR streamer @TougeVR loose in an early build of #MegaPunchyGolf on stream tonight.
He pulled off one of the luckiest shots we've seen so far xD

VR demo of Mega Punchy Golf by @pillowheadgames this evening in Brisbane 🌏

[MegaPunchyGolf @MegaPunchyGolf]

2nd update: Non-VR support
Reworked the base character controller to be extendable to a wide range of control types. Mouse, gamepad, joycons, etc.
Mouse controls work similar to the new VR controls. Gamepad controls are coming next.

Been a quiet holidays, but we're now back into the swing of things.
2 big updates to #MegaPunchyGolf to show off today
New VR controls: Setting punch power is now more physical. Draw your hand back to set the charge. The further you draw the stronger the punch

First proper devlog for #megapunchygolf is now up!

Did an overview of the game as it is now, how it plays and some of the cool features I've built in. Plus some of what's to come next.

Time for another #MegaPunchyGolf update!
Currently blocking out modular tiles for courses.
Each of these tiles is 30x30m
Das a lotta golf.

Also will start integrating Steam multiplayer soon. Eventually I'll be using something a bit more cross platform, but steam will be a good start for testing.

[MegaPunchyGolf @MegaPunchyGolf]

That's pretty much most of the mechanics completed. Need a few things for the overall match like lobby and game over screens, but now I can start tweaking and finalizing the physics and course scale.

[MegaPunchyGolf @MegaPunchyGolf]

Ball Resetting:
Two options here, to either reset the ball to the very start of the hole, or to reset it to the ball's last stationary position.

[MegaPunchyGolf @MegaPunchyGolf]

Teleport to Ball:
Whenever the ball is still you can teleport directly to it. It will teleport you based on which way you're facing to always put the ball in front of you. If the ball is up against a wall it'll put you as close as possible.

[MegaPunchyGolf @MegaPunchyGolf]

Smooth Movement:
You can run around at full speed using the touchpad/thumbstick. When charging a punch movement speed is drastically decreased, making it easier to aim.

[MegaPunchyGolf @MegaPunchyGolf]

New update on #MegaPunchyGolf!

Added a bunch of features including experimental smooth movement, teleport to ball button, and reset ball buttons.

Latest update on #MegaPunchyGolf isn't much to look at just yet, but I've now got leaderboards, per hole time and shot limits, scores and penalties all implemented and working :D
