Planet Golf

Starting a Game

To begin selecting a course from the main menu, press the Fire button on the joystick to show the world selection screen. From this screen, you can choose which planet’s course you wish to play.

To begin a game in two-player mode, move the joystick left to the middle option on the main menu and press the joystick Fire button to toggle between one and two golfers.

In two-player mode, each player takes it in turns to complete a hole before moving on to the next. The player with the lowest score at the end of a course wins!

Gameplay

Planet golf pits the player against challenging golfing scenarios filled with obstacles and additional challenges across five unique planets.

The direction of your shot is displayed by the dotted arc moving away from the ball. Move the joystick left and right to reposition the shot’s direction, then hold the joystick fire button to begin applying power to your shot.

The power indicator at the bottom center of the screen indicates the current power. Hold the joystick Fire button for a longer period of time than it takes to reach the maximum power to cancel your shot.

To speed up time when the ball is in motion, move and hold the joystick up.

While the ball is not in motion, move the joystick down to access the pause menu. The pause menu allows changing between SFX and Music, and gives the ability to exit back to the main menu from a course.

Planets
