What an incredible minigolf game at a fundamental level. The physics in this put the other 2 big minigolf games on Steam to shame, all the while being in VR. The courses are naturally more tame than the batshit something like Golf With Your Friends leans into, yet these levels all feel like a lot more thought went into them.

Queuing up with friends is also incredibly easy, the host (or any player) just needs to set the room password for a private match, the same field being used to join said lobby. If someone crashes they can rejoin where they left off, score intact (happened twice so far); at worst they may replay the hole they crashed on but with no penalty.

The scoring system is more reasonable, instead of penalizing you for stroking out you simply just, stroke out and move on. Why in the world GWYF makes stroking out an 18 total thing (also 2m time limit) is beyond me.

My only complaint is that to adjust settings such as whether or not you want smooth walking or turning, putter power etc., you need to actually enter a game to do so; you cannot adjust them from the main menu lobby.

I'll be coming back to this to 100% it (under par all courses, find all the hidden balls and get the golf clubs).
