Normal Golf Game Gets September 21 Release Date

Solo developer Luke Muscat announced on August 12 that his physics-based golf simulation game Normal Golf Game will launch on PC via Steam on September 21. The game, which Muscat describes as a "normal" golf game, puts players in the role of an amnesiac golfer forced to pay a $100,000 entry fee to compete in a mysterious tournament. Players control the club with a mouse, adjusting swing strength, stance, aim direction, club face angle, and trajectory. The game features optional challenges called Bounties, such as destroying three watermelons with a shot or landing the ball on a distant green. The demo, released on May 27, has earned a "Very Positive" rating on Steam, with 97% of 330 user reviews praising its satisfying shots and quick retry system. Muscat, known for his work on Fruit Ninja and Jetpack Joyride, is developing the game solo, with marketing support from Future Friends Games. The full version will include over 100 Bounties, multiple clubs with distinct physics, a nine-hole course, and difficulty levels beyond Nightmare, including Diabolical and Impossible.
