It's time! We can finally tell you about Ballgame, our chaotically rewarding physics platformer that’s inspired by golf. Here’s our teaser trailer:
What we're making is anything but a golf game. It’s definitely golf-inspired but imagine taking a ton of different kinds of ball games like pinball or skeeball and smashing them together with golf.
So, maybe nothing like a golf game?
In Ballgame, you are the ball.
More precisely, you are Dolf T. Landgreen (like dungeon + golf? Or Dolph Lundgren!) and you just became conscious (more on that later). As Dolf, you will play in tournaments where you need to get from the tee to the hole in as few strokes as possible. You'll fling through the air, ride across moss, speed through grass, and smash into walls while avoiding obstacles like spikes or weird bouncer dudes.
Each hole has a par you can measure yourself up against.
What's been rewarding for us is not only perfecting the leaderboard but beating ourselves, improving our shots with every replay. If you like to get good, you'll be in good company with Ballgame. We can’t wait to share more with you in the weeks and months ahead.
It's been fun seeing people in play testing and in our trailer comments compare Ballgame to a few games we love like Desert Golf, Yoku’s Island Express, and Peggle. Both of those games are on a mastery-to-happy-accidents scale that we love. Do you love those kinds of games? Tell us in the comments which ones strike a fun balance for you.
Play our Demo at Day of the Devs!
That's all for now because we're going heads down to work on our demo! On March 8th, 2026 we'll be joining other developers in San Francisco, right before GDC for Day of the Devs. RSVP to attend here! It is free and open to the public. We're so honored to join Day of the Dev's awesome community and to celebrate video games. In the demo, you'll play a tournament and compete for a REAL prize. It's gonna be cool.
If you can't make it, don't worry. We are planning to have a demo available for Steam players at some point in the near future. This is only the beginning. Stay in touch with us on Bsky, YouTube, Substack, Instagram or TikTok until next time.
