What the Golf? putts around with physics

Danish indie studio Triband thinks that everything can be golf, and it’s testing that theory with its new game, What the Golf? It’s a cheeky physics-based romp that sometimes doesn’t even involve a ball or club, and it just reached its crowdfunding goal on the fundraising platform Fig. Players can download a free prototype on the campaign page, and the studio plans a PC release later this year.

“It may sound weird, but the inspiration for What the Golf? comes from Dark Souls,” said Triband director Tim Garbos in an email. “When we first started out, we wanted to do a golf game with enemies and the working title was GOLF vs Evil — the dark holes of golf.”
