This minigolf-on-steroids game is gaining popularity, and for good reason! As if the insane courses with holes that look like they were designed by Sonic the Hedgehog weren't enough, there's also some modes where you can change the shape of your ball, make the ground bouncy, alter the gravity, and change the rules to where only bank shots count, with more modes/courses on the way!
Sessions can be pretty chaotic too, since 12 people can play simultaneously, and there's additional tweaks you can make where you can collide with the other players' balls/cones/pucks/cylinders/etc.
GWYF is on Steam Early Access right now, but $6 is a pretty cheap asking price, and is pretty impressive considering only two people from Australia have been developing the game.
Anyone given this a go yet, and if so, what do you think of it so far?

This looks pretty fun actually. Mini-golf is my second favorite thing to do at Boomers, and this game looks like a pretty sweet version of it. I'll definitely check it out.

It's cute for 30 minutes-1 hour sessions with friends. Game has its share of glitches (obviously since it's early access) though.

My thoughts exactly; the worst though is that you have some ball shapes where if you stop on a hill, it will slowly roll back and take it's sweet time; I wouldn't mind this too much if it weren't for the fact that you're on a time limit, and there's currently no way to turn it off or have the shapes roll down a bit faster.
I would also personally like to play offline single player so that when I have to pause, the timer won't keep counting down and take me to the next hole or kick me.
Still, it has great potential, and there's going to be at least 4 more courses coming to the base game, with a course editor on the way.
