Happy Holidays everyone!
Took some time to add a couple options related to camera transitions and the sound effects that play in the interstitial that show you if you got a bogey/hole in one etc. These are available in the settings menu under gameplay and audio.
Camera movement should also be much smoother by default in some situations now as well.
Thanks for playing Golfinite!
Changes

Significantly reduce camera jumpy-ness when going from when the ball stops rolling to showing the new aim location. This should be much smoother now, particularly around the greens.
Add option under Gameplay settings that allows for instant camera transitions. This will change any camera transition from it's current version to a direct cut.
Add an option under audio that can be used to disable the horns / other chimes that show up after you complete a hole, or challenge.

Hey everyone! Glad to see some more people playing on the daily leaderboard.
I've added an achievement inspired by the player who I will likely never be able to beat on the daily leaderboard.
Changes:

Add an achievement for placing first on the Daily Challenge Leaderboard.
This new achievement is not retroactive (sorry!), so you will need to submit a new score on a daily challenge that puts you in first place.
Best of luck and thanks for playing! :)
