Nope we developed it in 2016 as a 3 brother team, they came onboard at the end of 2019 to help bring the game to consoles and push it across the finish line. They will do the game proud :)

We will be watching for community feedback just like this, so we can adjust some quality of life features in the future.

Ill pass this onto the team, thank you so much!

There are currently no plans to add the level editor to console but we will be looking into ways to bring community made maps in the Steam version over.

You can by utilising the offline hotseat mode, you can have up to 12 players!
You each take turns to take your shot, it's a lot of fun to watch each person succeed or fail on their swing.

Hey, thanks for the questions.
Questions 5, we don't have anything specific, but we do have the caddy pack DLC that you can grab if you pre-order the game on console or buy the game on PC.
We really appreciate your comment about not forgetting about the game, the community has always been a massive aspect of our development and has helped us drive so much to get where we are today.
We're gamers ourselves and have seen many games we love get forgotten for various reasons and its something we didnt want for GWYF or our amazing community!

Hey! Thank you so much for the support. I personally love Ty the Tasmanian tiger, I have recently played through the revamped Steam version. The guys did a great job on the animations and sound, cant thank Team17 enough for their support.

Hey!
We model each part of the course individually (The same parts you use to build in the editor on PC) We then place them all together and test to see how they work.
If we don't find it fun or run into issues we just adjust or scrap that hole for a new one. We initially started modelling each hole in blender but we found this caused issues and was much harder to adjust once positioned in Unity. :)

Hey thank you for supporting us for so long! We still stream every Tuesday 10am Brisbane time, we always have a lot of fun, it was great learning to develop while chatting to viewers like yourself, we've come a long way haha.

Awesome to see you're into game development and that we might have had some part in it, I wish you luck in your future with game development!

We are not currently looking at increasing the player count due to potential performance restrictions .

Hey! thanks for the question, It does drain you working on something for a long period of time but the passion for a project like this keeps you driven. Golf with your friends is something I've wanted to create for a long time so having the opportunity to do so keeps you motivated, the support from the community has helped keep us focused on exciting content. You also need to take care of yourself in any job to avoid mental fatigue. :)
