Sensible Golf

DOS - 1996
Also available on: Amiga

A fun, cute little golf game from the maker of Cannon Fodder 2 and Sensible World of Soccer, Sensible Golf offers the same fast and furious action as in those games, only this time the controls are much less intuitive and the game itself not as good.

Still, with Sensible's hallmark tiny players and colorful graphics, it's a fun diversion from the real thing. Good for when you're cursing Links or Jack Nicklaus games for not giving you that coveted birdie.

I've been busy today, commiting on the games I wrote, this is one of them.

It was a little bit more than a straight conversion of the source, as the source supplied was a jumble of several projects mashed into Sensible Golf. So, it was a original game, based on the Amiga version.

As a foot note, I had to produce, with no notice a free demo on a floppy for the publisher as their were giving away thousands of floppies with their pepsi drink - in the London area. So, with I worked silly hours and supplied a version on a floppy so they could produce this demo run - and I forgot one thing.

Just one!

I still had my own samples in for sounds - so for example if the ball hit the tree, the demo would play a sampe of me saying 'TREE' - as for getting it in the hole - there was another sample of me just saying 'PLOP'.

Good job I was a director of the company - but all went well....
Good days to be a games programmer!
