Micro Golf
Press X for everything. Try to shoot in the holes while you have lives left. Random new hole after each score, smaller holes earn more points!
A new easy hole is generated if you miss 3 times the same one.

I got 2100!
I have to say, I love the simplicity and intuitive play. It also looks really good to me despite the dead-simple graphics. Very nice job!
EDIT: Got 2800 after the v0.3 update. Those small holes are tough! :)
3600 is my best too. I wonder if I will not cap the minimum hole size a bit bigger to allow more scoring. Or randomize the radius all the time and stay on the bigger sizes. Or reduce the radius every 2 or 3 holes. Advices ?
I like the challenge of the smaller holes, but one idea might be to increase the hole size after, say, 2 misses on a hole. That would give players a better chance of continuing to advance in the game if a hole is particularly tough.
UPDATE: Just squeaked out 4400!
For your legacy I might not change anything to the scoring system and release as it is :)
Last update before final state. I'm pretty happy with my tests about new balance and I don't think I'll change it anymore but I'm a little dubious on the feature that runs a new hole after 3 misses. Should I remove it, lower it to 2 misses, or is it good as it is ?
I think the only thing I might change about the new hole feature it to make sure the new hole is bigger than the previous hole if you advance because of 3 misses. Otherwise, someone might miss 3 times and then get hit with an even smaller, harder hole. I got 4400 my first time with the updated version. I still think I can break 6000 with some focus :).
Done it and final release, after 3 miss you got a new fresh big radius hole.
