Build the miniature golf course of your dreams in MiniGolf Maker. Play locally or online with up to 8 players, and Share your course with the world on the Steam Workshop.
Players praise the extensive customization options in the course creator, allowing them to shape every aspect of the course, from adjusting the size and height of each piece to meticulously designing the terrain and environmental details. The creation tools are described as easy to use, empowering players to bring their wildest miniature golf course ideas to life.
The game offers a wide variety of themed environments for players to design their courses, including desert, Halloween, medieval, winter, pirate, dreamscape, polyworld, and arcade settings. The "Behaviors and Events" system enables the creation of dynamic courses with moving elements and interactive features, further enhancing the creativity and replayability.
The game supports up to 8-player local and online multiplayer, allowing friends to compete against each other in turn-based gameplay that is compared to the experience of playing a game like Worms. The inclusion of various power-ups, such as fire, ice, and bombs, adds an extra layer of strategy and chaos to the multiplayer matches.
Reviews praise the overall quality of the gameplay, noting that the ball physics and putting feel "realistic" and satisfying. While some players mention a need for additional input options (e.g., a classic putter-style swing), the current control scheme is described as intuitive and responsive.
Reviewers highlight the dedication of the development team, who have been actively addressing bugs, incorporating player feedback, and adding new features to the game since its early access release. This ongoing support and commitment to improvement have been well-received by the community.
