Added second 18 hole golf course.
User interface improved.
Speedy Golf is a delightful throwback to the 'one-button' arcade sports era. It takes the complexities of golf and boils them down to a simple, three-tap mechanic that is remarkably easy to pick up but difficult to master. The inclusion of two full 18-hole courses provides a surprising amount of content for such a streamlined game.
The game's charm lies in its speed and accessibility. With 19 different avatars and a helpful caddy giving advice, it feels like a complete package rather than just a tech demo. The recent updates have improved the rendering and frame rate significantly, making the experience feel modern despite its classic roots. It’s a great 'coffee break' game that works just as well on an Apple TV as it does on an iPhone, offering pure, uncomplicated sporting fun.
Intuitive one-button, three-tap control system
Two complete 18-hole par 72 golf courses
19 unique player avatars to choose from
Helpful caddy advice for every shot
High-resolution graphics with 60fps support
Cross-platform play on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV
The three-tap system works like this: first tap starts the swing, second sets the power, and third sets the accuracy. Listen to your caddy's advice regarding wind and distance before you start your tap sequence to ensure you stay on the fairway.
Gameplay focuses on timing and course management. Players must navigate hazards like sand traps and trees across 36 holes of golf. The game records your best scores, encouraging replayability as you try to master each course with different characters.
Speedy Golf is designed primarily for simple touch or one-button remote input, making it perfectly suited for the Siri Remote on Apple TV.
I like the simple retro game play.
Very good game but after I play it for a while it makes me hit the ball behind me and places where I don’t aim for.
Very enjoyable game! Very simple controls and lots of fun!
Like Hi Score tracker. Game play is great, just add something to have the player wanting to come back playing. Will update my score once I see more things implemented into the game.
Just terrible. There is nothing good about this game. Deleted it two minutes after installing.
