There is nothing bad about this game. Great graphics, great gameplay, I love everything about it! Thanks, FunkyPear, make more games!

There should be some way to save progress, so I don't have to do the same 3-put holes over and over again when blowing a shot on the 7th or 8th hole. That makes the gold-medals tedious, not challenging...

Velorien - The putt distance is the distance the ball travels between hitting the ball and it going through the hoop. If it doesn't go through, its not a putt!

I'd like to point out that the physics in this game are disgustingly inaccurate, but we're golfing in space, so it doesn't matter all that much :P

arch and Mabazain - yes I no density doesnt do that in real life, but I think Funky Pear said that it does for this game...

still, both the impossible and hard badge should be mega dam impossible badges worth 7347324234783 points each. what do you think? Hmmm? HMMMMMMMM?

Kaminator you must remember that these are not real masses andthe fact that the average mass for a star (sun) is a lot higher than the average mass for a planet.
Although I too hate those goddamn suns i think they should stay like that to give the game actual challenges.
(and all levels are possible it just takes shitloads of practice)

Hmm, yeah, that is a bit odd, ah well, glad it worked it out for ya. I know there was a bug in 1.3 (that got fixed in 1.4) that 1 planet would not save as being visited, even thought it had been. Anyone who had completed that, had to go back and do the whole round again, but, that didn't seem like the same problem you were running into. Anyhow, glad it worked out.

Haddock...no, density only matters because a smaller denser object will contain more MASS. The equation for gravity only looks at the relative mass of the objects and the distance between them. Think of gravity as a really weak nuclear type force.
Funky Pear-
Neat game, but the ball should lose more momentum when it strikes the planets. The reciprocity is way too high.

Qahrahm: In the unlockables section, there are 2 things that should unlock to help you find all the planets. This first is a sort of checklist to see each round and how many you've found out of each round (ie. You've found x/y in round 1). The other is the option to show visited planets. It places a check on each planet you've "visited" as you got thru the rounds. Hope that helps out. If you don't have those unlockables yet, keep working on other achievements until you unlock those. Good luck. :)

Great game, one of my favorites. I've experienced the issue with the sun seeming to be much stronger than a planet that has larger mass, but other than a few oddities, the game still is great. A few minor tweaks, and in my opinion could be a near perfect game. Great job, and thanks.

Haddock... Thats simply not true... it's true that high density planets can have a stronger gravitational pull, because u can get closer to the center of mass, but at a equal distance two planets have the same gravitational pull if their masses are the same regardless of the density.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
The mass does not only affect gravity (just repeating what Funky Pear and some others said) - the size of the planet also has an effect - smaller = stronger because density is what makes gravity not mass alone - thats why some suns seem stronger - cos they're equal mass but smaller

Your physics sucks. The sense of a larger body has a greater gravity doesnt hold in this game and its really annoying how can a planet with 350+ mass lose to a planet with 200 mass????

Man, I've been playing this game compulsively, and I have this damned 339 bug. Yes I'm playing version 1.4. Yes I've played every round twice to completion (at LEAST) to make sure I've got all the planets knocked off. It's kind of a buzzkill.

The only reason I absolutely despise this game is because the gravity does not work. The ball will head towards a sun over a larger planet no matter what!

...The gravitational pull is almost impossible to guage in comparison to other planets, etc. The game is okay. The badges are fucking ridiculous. 2/5.

Tha game phisics are highly amusing. I particularly enjoy it when the ball comes back and lands on the same darn spot again. I Have never been much of a golfer, and so I can't truly enjoy your game. You did a wonderful job though, and so I give you a 3/5.

This is the only game that has ever made me appreciate gravity. A fun and challenging game. I would've liked to see a little more variety in the courses though.

wolkanna its when your ball entered the hole not after it. considering it counts up even after leaving the hole. you probably didnt notice it continuing to go up

Scores are submitted to Kong as soon as it passes through the gate. Game status is not saved until you complete the round - if you abort the round the score is lost. It says this when you click the abort round button ;)

Umm, Funky the game submitted my score but it's not ticked off in the game. http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/4449/graviteeem2.png
see my highscore? My score in the game only says 648 but my highscore in the kong highscores is 1139.
