World's Best Mini Golf


This was my submission for an assignment in a programming commercial game engines college class.

The assignment was to create the "world's best mini golf game". The art style, points, and feel were open but the core mechanics must be familiar to players of first person style games. The player must control the game from a first person perspective moving freely around the scene. The direction the ball moves should be based on where the player is standing.

All of the artwork, sound, and music used in this game are publicly or openly licensed assets. The artists have chosen to make their work free to the world, and I thank them for that. This game would not have been possible with out their generosity.
