Golfing Over It with Alva Majo v1.3.2

Golfing Over It with Alva Majo is the game for you if you’ve ever dreamed of scaling a mountain while carrying a golf ball. This game takes the idea from the 2017 phenomenon Get Over It with Bennett Foddy, but with a twist: instead of a man in a cauldron, you play with a golf ball. What about the mountain you’re climbing? It’s as fantastic as a work of art by Salvador Dali. What’s better? The problem is the climb itself; the controls won’t make you want to throw your computer out the window. You know you’re in for a treat—or a trick, depending on how you look at it—when Bennett Foddy, the man who came up with the original Mountaineering Nightmare, gives the game his stamp of approval.

Bennett Foddy himself played Golfing Over It and gave the game his stamp of approval. It’s comparable to getting approval from Stephen King for your short horror story or Gordon Ramsay for your homemade beef Wellington. Guys, this is a big deal. The game offers a new, albeit frustrating, experience while maintaining the essence of the original. Make your way in golf to the top of a kind of mountain, which is the main goal of the game. However, to be clear, this is not your grandfather’s Sunday golf game. There are many challenges on the mountain, from funny to infuriating.

You’ll encounter everything from spinning hammers to floating platforms. And just when you start to feel comfortable, the game throws you another curveball. It’s as challenging and addictive as playing mini golf in a fever dream. Alva Mayo’s soothing voice will accompany you as you climb up (or down, depending on your skill level) and explain why he made such a wicked game. It’s as if the therapist and the torturer were rolled into one. Alva’s commentary gives the game a lot of depth and makes you think about what success, failure, and the path in between really means.
