golflike

For those who like their golf procedurally generated.

golflike is an attempt at making a coffee-break golf-themed roguelike. It features a randomly generated 9-hole course, with three different environment themes. Games are very short, mostly taking less than ten minutes.

Terminal installation

In addition to the applications above golflike can be played in your terminal. The easiest way to set it up is through LuaRocks:

luarocks install golflike

Note: golflike uses the font and default 16-colour palette of your terminal. If your colourscheme is not a good match then the game might look very strange indeed!
