Gameplay

Players choose from a number of mechas to play through golf courses with. Each mecha has different abilities and gameplay mechanics for hitting the ball. As opposed to traditional golf, all players play at the same time, with the goal of getting their ball into the hole first. Players can demolish buildings, block opposing shots with their mecha, and attack other competitors. In-game commentators (Justin, Griffin, and Travis McElroy) spectate the players' actions.

Development

Indie studio No Goblin previously developed Roundabout in 2014. During a Let's Play of Neo Turf Masters, a member of No Goblin mentioned that a game having mechas play golf in space was never made before.

According to the co-founder of No Goblin, Dan Teasdale, the studio took anime from the 1970s and 1980s and "overdubbed it". Teasdale helped to develop Rock Band and Destroy All Humans!. No Goblin initially produced the in-game commentary themselves; however, they ultimately decided to commission the McElroy brothers because they needed people "way funnier than [them]".

Reception

The game has received "mixed or average" reviews, holding an aggregated score of 56 on Metacritic. On OpenCritic, the game has a "weak" approval rating of 0%.
