New Gamemodes and Speedrun Features!

New Ways to Play!

Sandbox Stroke Play Mode

Take away the time pressure and concentrate on your shots. In Sandbox mode, the timer is hidden and the only score that matters is the final stroke count. Use input shortcuts to:

• Teleport to your ball once it comes to rest (Hold Sprint button)

• Collect Shot-affecting powerups without having to run the course (Hold Num1/Dpad Right)

• Add a Glider/Runaway Cart powerup at any time to cruise the course (Hold Num2/Dpad Left)

Instead of a timer, track your stroke count for the current hole. When playing with others, instead of time splits, you'll receive score-to-par updates from your playing partners. The ball "highlight camera" will activate every time the ball first bounces. No need to chase after the ball to see the action! The ball trail is also shorter- giving you more visibility. *Note: no leaderboards for this mode, but your best score will save locally.

In-Game Speedrun Timer and Categories

Is completing every course as fast as possible in your blood? Check out Speedy Golf on Speedrun.com! Turn on the Speedrun timer in the Settings Menu. Then tee off to set a time in one of the following categories:

• All Courses - Complete all 10 courses in one session in Speedy Classic mode.

• Leap Frog Courses - Complete all 10 courses in one co-op session in Leap Frog mode. Note: can be played co-op online!

• Career Any% - Defeat all Rivals and Tournaments in Career mode, starting from a fresh save.

The timer tool measures both In-Game course Time (IGT) and Loads Removed Realtime (LRT). We talk strategy and post our runs to the Speedy Golf Discord. We also do occasional game nights for players of any skill.

Three New Fun/Casual Gamemodes

• Battle Tourney - Race the entire course, but every powerup is random. Players further back get better powerups! A powerup only affects players nearby and ahead of the player who used it. Same as the "Tournaments" in Career mode.

• Brick Bombers - Soar into the sky with your Glider and drop Brick Walls in front of other players' golf balls on the fairway.

• Ace Shootout - Shots go longer and there are plenty of Lucky Bounces and Power Shots available. How many Hole in Ones can you get?

Other Patch Notes

Adjustments

Bug Fixes

• On 4K 16:9 displays, ensure 2560 x 1440 screen resolution is an option.

• Removed "splash" sound effect when starting Leap Frog online on Birdie Grove and Palm Cove, which caused errors if playing on high ping

• The character's held golf club now has a shadow when running

• In Leap Frog Online, shot-affecting powerups used by your teammate will now play their sound effect

• In Career tournaments, attacking powerups will now apply correctly if opponents are on the same hole and ahead, but not within 100 yards

• If a player tries to change club beyond Driver or below Putter, the club change sound effect no longer plays

And to top it off, how about a lower price? Speedy Golf is now $7.99 USD. Pick up a copy or two and try the unique co-op Leap Frog mode - either local couch co-op or online!
