Inspired by the funny Linux game Kolf, PSPGolf is a minigolf game completely rewritten in Lua for the PSP.

The maps can be drawn in any paint program (e.g. MS Paint), it supports PNG-format and all the "bouncing" from the walls, slowdown in sand, water is calculated on-the-fly while playing.

Features

• 1 player mode.
• Basic elements (walls, water, sand, rough green).
• Separation of an "invisible" collision map / height map and a visible background map.
• Overhead areas for advanced graphics.
• Ability of choosing from different "Map Packs".
• 1 "Map Pack" with 10 maps in the initial release.

Changelog

0.2 2006/02/17

• Code cleaned up a litte bit, but there has still so much to be done.
• Rough green areas have been implemented. Thanks to indianajonesilm for the hint!
• Implementation of additionally "height maps" for creating hills, ramps, etc. in the maps. Again thanks to indianajonesilm for the idea. This feature is not really completed yet, it's just a "preview" at the moment.
• Implementation of overhead areas, which will be printed over the ball. With this feature tunnels and advanced graphics like trees can be implemented easily. This time thanks go to Guyfawkes!
• Application icon, which will be displayed in Lowser.
• Fixed a bug where the ball sometimes could go through a wall.
