I finally finished a project

(Self Promotion ahead...)

I'm very good at starting projects...then wasting WAY too much time fiddling with the project mid-way...and then just never finishing it. But I finished this one! Took over a year of putzing around on weekends when I probably should have been doing something else.

The end result are these golf-course games in PDF format.

In my past life I used to develop iPhone games and kind of missed doing the whole game design thing. When I got my SuperNote, I decided to see how far I could push what one can do with a PDF file and came up with this.

I neither know nor care about golf, and this looks excellent.

I love golf video games. This looks like a great use of the medium!

@MackReed I also know little about golf, though I did enjoy watching “Stick” on Apple TV+.

@homerj Congratulations on shipping!

In the 4th image of each item’s preview set in the store, the callout says “Every swing requires a bit of luck. You may have perfect swing, but also might have a hook or slice to seal with.” Did you mean “deal”?

@davidl dammit! (Thanks for proofreading!)

Honestly, the biggest pain with this is dealing with Etsy. It's such a clunky tool. But I will get that typo fixed!

Oh, and if anyone wants to endure my bland YouTube voice, you can see it 'in action' here: https://youtu.be/y_MtwCuIiaY

Hi, fellow Supernote user. I guess you used a custom template for it? Looks great:)
homerj Yesterday
@hassebasse It's PDF based. I wrote a script to generate the pages and then I export it as a PDF. If you'd like a copy, shoot me your email address!

This kinda reminds me of the travel games we used to get as kids when we were on car trips! Totally love this.

The "Yes & Know" invisible ink games is what I'm referring to. :)

Drooling greedily because of all the hexagons. Beautiful.

I also hate golf, but this looks fantastic!

I love hex maps, and it being both a pdf and an interactive game makes it even better.

@homerj I'd love to try, thanks. hansivarstordal@yahoo.no
