Golf: it’s not easy. There’s much to think about between your angle, spin, swing power, club type, the terrain, your stance, and the movement of your arms. Thankfully Normal Golf Game is here to help us perfect our stroke on this week’s Indie-licious… Or else!

Normal Golf Game comes to us from Luke Muscat, who some folks might recognize as the designer behind Jetpack Joyride and Fruit Ninja. This game puts all of the aspects of a good golf swing to work. You can pick your club, set your angle and spin, and a few other aspects, but you’ll also control the physics of your stance, swing, power, and more to truly control how you hit the ball. Hit anything from anywhere, as long as you’re willing to do so until Muscat is satisfied. What does that mean? We’ll find out!

Join us as we play Normal Golf Game on today’s episode of Indie-licious, going live at 1 p.m. PT / 4 p.m. ET on the Shacknews Twitch, Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube channels. You can also watch below:
