Some of the signs might be a little hard to read. I've transcribed them here if you miss any. :)
Hole 1: Welcome to the beginning of the Green Canyon Golf Course. We hope you enjoy the experience. Please remember - no golf carts are allowed due to the sensitive environment.
Hole 2: Did you know? Green Canyon was opened in 1982. Theland was almost going to be used as open space before it was developed for a world class golf course.
Hole 3: Do our trees seem unique? We’ve imported saplings from Europe in order to give Green Canyon a distinct look.
Hole 4: Watch out for the middle of this course, as the land slopes into the water. More golf balls can be purchased at the Club House.
Hole 5: Please be careful. For safety reasons, we ask that you do not shoot over the cliff wall.
Note in the shack: A list of different grass care companies. They settled with “Greener Grass” (specializes in large remote areas, doesn’t have many reviews and has a bizarre ad).
The Soil Bags: 100% natural soil. Not recommended for consumption.
Hole 6: Each golf ball that enters the water will cost an additional fee for recovery. Please do not try to retrieve the ball yourself.
Hole 7: Be careful if the weather is windy. Please use the convenient handrails that we’ve recently added to each bridge.
Hole 8: If you need to return to the clubhouse, a shortcut back will be available just beyond this hole. Refreshments are available.
Hole 9: The following course passes under the entry bridge to this island. Please do not climb upon any part of the bridge.
Hole 10: Our beautiful course is accompanied by a beautiful gift shop inside of the club, where we sell decorative golf balls, snowglobes and clothing!
Hole 11: If possible avoid hitting any balls into the trees. Native bird populations have built nests in the canopy.
Hole 12: The caddy house at the end of this course has refreshments, general course services and restroom facilities.
Ironically the first one was hardest to read, but still manageable. The darker it got in the game, the more legible the text got.
Still, it's kinda weird the text is not on eye level and it looks like a reverse Star Wars scrolling text intro.
I was about to ask what the shirt on the guy under the table says but it's just the Greener Grass Awaits title of the game.
at 40:16, is it calling green canyon "most inconvenient"? lol
Thank you for struggling through this game!! Seeing the near misses on some of those holes really kept me invested and made the game feel more genuine to golfing. Also yeah the dialogue and final boss design are brilliant
what if you hit the zombie with the golf ball?
Love the implications that your player character is the scariest thing on that course
Well they killed a God with golf ball-sized orbs...wouldn't you be worried?
In your interactions with the two other people on the course, they both seem really unnerved and scared in their interactions, plus the slow zoom in and dramatic audio cues make it clear your character mught have a certain glint in their eye...they hopped the fence, they MUST finish their game, no matter what.
@@jamesnorman9160 That and if I'm reading the ending right, the player character was actually possessing some random dude, note the font change at the end.
@@endgameExecutor Not to metion when you kill the 2nd tree, the god says "Now I realize who im talking to" and "I will take your dinner from you"
Also, when the player jumps in the water, the death scene says “this body cannot swim” or something like that.
Player Character also do the golf not just because obsessed with the game, but to complete the ritual to enter that other realm.
Nonchalantly washing the ball after the incident on hole 5 is a very funny touch.
You can tell that the designer was expecting players to shoot over the cliff
oh that makes more sense, like you hit them or something@@toahero5925
For a character so insanely obsessed with golfing, I’m surprised the protagonist forgets that it’s called a golf *club* for a reason.
Do you know how expensive golf clubs are?!
@@FourBlackRabbits Is it more expensive than ones own life?
Go get ‘em Tiger
@@theonpointheavy4401 yes
Right? Everything about this scenario would be far less scary if I had a golf club in my hands.
I love that the list of landscaping specialists says that Greener Grass had a "bizarre ad," and then we get to see it.
And it is truly bizarre, complete with an 80s styled synthwave pop song.
I'm not sure how I feel about this game, but MAN does it commit to the gimmick.
I'm pleasantly surprised to see the horror genre expand its horizons. First fishing horror and now golfing horror, how lovely!
Classic beginners mistake, night golfing during a blood moon.
I love that this is one of the most suspenseful watches I've had in a while, lmao. Atmosphere and pacing were great, and I love the bit of silent humor you add with shaking the camera "nope" in reaction to things, etc
I could practically sense your fear through the computer screen once you got to the part where the dude started following you.
Either that, or he's just annoyed that someone's trying to play through.
I love the final boss, he actually looks terrifying and just is pretty cool in general.
From the font change at the end of the game and the way the tree deity responds to your presence, it's clear that the golfing MC is being possessed by some other deity, one that apparently is just as malicious if "you can not have your dinner" is anything to go by...
At first I thought we were just really hard for golf, but then the "this body cannot swim" had my gears turning. And then the diety at the end confirms as such and afterwards coming to "where am I? Well there's my car, better go home now"
Maybe we're playing a more neutral entity. The Greener Grass entity is a Elder being that uses a lawn care as a front for its dark nature rituals. The player is another entity who just wants to play some golf. Greener Grass Entity assumes the man you're posessing is 'dinner' but you have no intention of killing him, you're just trying to get in a few rounds of golf.
I mean the tree god is a heavily edited jerma photo, so who knows
The scariest part for me was those... "ghosts". Realizing that they CAN ACTUALLY MOVE when you are looking at them scared the shit out of me
I like how the stalker/ghost/whatever runs away awkwardly when you’ve finished a hole
"You can't watch me forever...you have to focus on your game and then I'm going to-
"Oh? You're done? This is awkward...uh, bye!" *runs off*
No joke this is the first time that a horror game gave me chills. The part when the zombie dude appears and starts chasing you just felt so *UNPLEASANT*. Had that mental image of Mordecai from Regular Show going "Aw, sick!". It gets worse because the enemy AI kinda cheats sometimes.
It's surprising how well golf as a horror game works when the player is forced to hurry or gets pinned. Some great stuff I haven't seen in a good while.
Also 47:50 love that bit of unintentional comedy.
Final level music was badass.
Thanks for the sick video as always.
Here's my theory about this game. This story is about two nature deities. One is an invasive deity that represents the natural ecosystems of Europe. Greener Grass is likely a cult that worships this deity, and to bring Them to whatever continent the game takes place in, they imported European trees to act as a sort of anchor that allows the European deity to exist in the golf course. The grass is also probably a European species, and thus is connected to the god, allowing Them to assimilate the golf course employees that die on it.
Your character is possessed by a different nature deity, either a native one or an also invasive one from another continent. Either invasive plantlife weakens native gods or They're from a third continent and is poorly adapted to the invasive god's environment, but either way They need a human body to be able to be on the golf course. Whether native or invasive Themself, this other nature deity came to eliminate the European deity, either to save Green Canyon's native ecosystem from being destroyed, or to eliminate competition respectively, and both to keep this invasive god from becoming too powerful.
Oh, and the reason why the human host is still golfing through it all is because they're just that passionate about it. The deity possessing them is basically forced to just point them in the right direction and hope that they'll do what they're told.
You just made my jaw drop. Def a native deity imo tho bc go native wildlife and plants!
Also it could have an underlying meaning about how golfing effects the ecosystem and environment as well, 2 in 1.
basically zoe and bios?
Yeah, the "this body cannot swim" is weird, I thought the player character was the monster/ villain protagonist at first.
I think you're mostly on point, but the player character was clearly possessed by a golfing deity who just wanted to play golf. All of the carnage was incidental to the goal of golfing.
It's like Arnold Palmer said
"The game has such a hold on golfers because they compete not only against an opponent, but also against the course, against par, and most surely- against the supernatural diety which demands blood sacrifice."
Was never a huge golf fan but mix in supernatural threats and it'd be pretty entertaining, imo. Sure, I'll watch golfers get chased around the course by poltergeists!
What The Golf gets pretty weird too. No supernatural elements, just surrealistic ones.
Sounds like that Geico commercial.
"Looks like there's some kind of sea monster in the water hazard"
Golf ball lands by dead body.
Always take the shot where it lands, anything else is cheating!
I really enjoy how your first instinct once the horror game loaded in was to see if you could get back in your car to leave, so goddamn relatable for some odd reason
Haha, one of my favorite things in horror games is when they let you just nope out of there before any bad shit happens! :)
Rare footage of ABG cursing.
everything I've seen from this dev is always so creative (like the tutorial book and level boundaries)
but most of all I want to be able to listen to the soundtrack somewhere
What else have they made?
@@Milkbutter th-cam.com/video/o16nyG2DGwo/w-d-xo.html
another good one, they're very different games but I can still kind of see they were made by the same guy. plus you can find the download page and dev's profile from the link in the description
So the golf god came over in a body he possessed to thwart ... a demonic lawnscaping entity?
I think they were perhaps both demons, with a grudge against each other? The golf guy seemed pretty intimidating
Amazing game! The smiling people were super creepy and I loved their wind-up animations. The music was unsettling and surreal, and the story was intriguing. It'd be cool if the creator made another game about the MC or in the same world at least
13:46 I like how if you did shoot over the cliff wall it would look like the golf ball killed him
If I had a nickel for every golf horror game I’ve seen played, I would have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice.
ehe my thought when clicking on the video
Saame
If I had a nickel for every time I've seen this joke, I'd actually be quite wealthy at this point - which is weird for a joke about how uncommon something is.
Haha! I loved Gone Golfing! There needs to be more golfing horror games and more sporting horror games in general. It's a pretty untapped resource!
Also, a golf course could make for a great location for a liminal space horror game.
@@AlphaBetaGameroh yeah its perfect for a liminal space horror game!
An interesting concept! In general it had a lot of fun ideas, especially the "stay in the light" mechanic, and having to keep looking at the workers/ghosts. Overall I'd say the concept was better than the execution but was still entertaining to watch. It felt a little long for what it was.
As an avid golfer, I can attest that this is accurate to the real life experience.
dang guess I should drop competitive shooting for this!
After the stalker being revealed it merely turned "boring golf" into "annoying golf" haha
At 47:50, when you're supposed to stay in the light AND not get killed by the stalker I was about to say "This sucks." out loud but halfway through you blow up the stalker with the ball. Game just ascended from a 6 to a 9.
Game just went from perfect 0 to perfect 10 instantly
Haven't seen a horror golf game in a while! Very weird, surprisingly tense too. This one had good sound and atmosphere.
15:06
I was half asleep the first time I watched this video, I misread "homes only" as "homos only" and it flabbergasted me, living in my head rent free for the entire day. I'm kind of disappointed that that's not actually what that says.
genuinely one of the most striking and memorable indie horrors ive seen to date, just so bizarre and atmospheric
I like how, despite everything, the scariest character in the game is still the protagonist
This game has the right mix of "crazy protagonist in unrelated supernatural horror" I haven't seen since Squirrel Stapler, or akin to that one Witch FPS where we're a witch who was killed and comes back from the dead seeking revenge...but finds that a Eldritch horror was unleashed that wrecked the place before she could- an "outside context" problem of a protagonist from one genre having to deal with their story intersecting with another genre.
Yeah the first half definitely gives this vibe. But the ending clearly reveals our protagonist is just possessed by another supernatural entity that's playing according to its own rules from the very beginning, thus cancelling the absurdity of context mismatch, so I would say the whole story is a clever double subversion of expectation.
I would even go so far as to say it's a battle between a determined spirit of a pro golfer possessing a mortal body to protect the sanctity of golf, versus a supernatural entity that uses "unique" grass to create a hive mind of puppets, and this particular golf course, or perhaps the world itself, was only saved because evil grass on a golf course attracted the first spirit's ire.@@YT-gv3cz
What's the witch FPS?
@@billul1 COVEN, previously featured on this channel
45:41 What a grand and intoxicating innocence
Shame on you, sweet Nereva
Never seen someone be so dedicated to golfing before
Man, I rarely can be scared for real by videogame monsters... but those one vampire...ish seekers... they give me a chills. They are goofy by their looks, but via gameplay mechanics they are nothing but terrifying.
You that he will chase you, but you NEED to turn around to continue playing... so unsafe in every moment.
Watching ABCG use the wrong club and not making any distance because of it is hillarious.
So basically a landscaping company is using human sacrifices
Don't they all?
Whatever it takes for the perfect lawn!
Or other way around.
"Uh, how many strokes do I add if my ball ends up going into an existential voidspace which borders this reality and oblivion?"
"All of them."
"All of them?"
"aLL oF tHEm!"
"Right, then. Gonna go scoop the poop out of my pants and get back to my game."
in love with your character. so quiet but around for the start and end. n all the head shakes when bad things hapoen in your vides @alphagamer love the videos thank u
26:40 and 26:50 I can almost *hear* the "BRUH" lmao
The real horror is that it doesn't let you play left handed.
This body is right handed
This was one of the most panic-inducing watches i have seen bar none.. the moment the stalkers were involved i knew things were going to ratchet up to 11! And jeez add the "stay in the light" portion and i had goosebumps the whole time😭
Well that went places. Your golfing abilities are so amazing you were able break physics and land perfectly on the bridge railing.
First fishing horror games now golf horror games? This is some suburban dad type horror
Ok, this game seriously made me have HIGH Tension!!! Those creepy people following you when your're not looking was SO STRESSFUL!!! OMG 😂😭
I really like the grass god's voice, the distortion makes it sound like a child but also like it's so huge it's voice can't help but thunder.
Holy crap this game is beautiful! I can't remember if I've ever seen a dreamlike, surreal environment executed this well.
This was absolutely phenomenal. So much packed into a neat little game. The concept and soundtrack were great. Hope it becomes more popular.
That was actually pretty cool.
Good game.
5:20 golf course boasts bringing in invasive tree species while simultameously banning golf carts to protect the sensitive environment.
Also golfing manual suggesting how you can cheat with a club bag.
These people sure do have an interesting take on morality.
Haha, maybe the golf cart ban is so you can't run away faster!
The spirits of Thailand can't drive, but WILL drive given the chance to carjavk a cart. We should not enable their roadhog behaviour.
The real horror was the fact that the average 18-hole golf course wastes approximately 2.08 billion gallons of water a day
I think you may have made an error, your estimate seems unplausible to me.
Very terrifying game. The music and sound effects really make this an intense atmosphere, very well done.
10:36 😂😂
Game took hell of a direction.
All the Evil Tree Deity says is "Zombies, Murders, Evil Cult, Destroy Your World". I just wanna golf for God's sake!
Gives me heavy Don't Close Your Eyes vibes. Well done
I'm so surprised at my instincts that when the zombie guy killed you I involuntarily dodged for some reason before shitting my pants.
I didn't expect much going into this, but it was a very inventive game, especially towards the end. A lot of effort went into this.
I need that soundtrack tho
Great game, weird as hell about the last 15-20 min. Pretty tense having to golf and keep in view those psycho guys. 😊
Communication with characters:
"Take a closer look at that snout" meme
Pure Vaporwave !
That was incredible.
It stops being just golf at 13:31
The SCP-173 concept is still being put to good use. I like how the Sinister Valley was used in the opponents, it's not just a rotten zombie or a demon, but a partially disfigured person behaving incredibly strangely and causing dissonance, that's how it should be done. It is good that their vulnerability to balls of light was accidentally discovered.
Aint no way Bro called weeping angels "the SCP 173 concept"
@@bigprogaymer6923 SCP 173 pre-dates weeping angels
@@bigtimefucko1732You have no idea how writing a show works then lol
i love the part when you are happy and angry. it look so funny ❤😂
The music is perfect!
This looks like a golfer’s fever dream. It’s a great showcase of how far horror can be pushed.
I wonder if the Game Grumps would play this for Ghoul Grumps… they do love golf and spooks.
This is way too epic than a game about golfing has any right to be
I'ma have to come back for that bop in there over and over.
Love how you can just feel the pure clenching fear at 29:35 and 32:31 hahaha
If I had a nickle for every golf horror game I've seen I'd have 3 nickles, which is more than I expected
0:33 damn, by all logic that should've worked!
You know what they say, third time's the harm!
Impressed!
Golfing horror? Now I've seen it all.
They weren't lying about Greener Grass having a Weird Ad but they also forgot to say it as straight up banger tho.
The grass isn’t always greener on the other side
This is just a normal golfing experience
this game is really cool!
Cool game! Reminds me of a game called Gone Golfing.
I was kinda hoping we’d see eyes pop up after we picked up the ball in one of the holes (similar to Yuri’s darting, bloodshot eyes in Doki Doki). Maybe the next golf horror game will do it 😂
btw the boss theme and arena are sick, such a cool game
I never wanted to play Mario golf so bad in my life 😅
Great game. Thanks for another nice recommendation. But how do you jump? I wanted to get the pearl in the second run but for the love of the mighty golf god, I cannot find the button.
Nice video 👍
excited for this
So.
As far as I understand a story.
A cult that has control over a lawn care company of some sort - most likely connected to their beliefs and rituals - has a weird add imploring people to join them. They are hired to help a gold club and in doing so perform some sort of ritual that is meant to uplift one of them to become something more - the zombie deity says everyone joins him in time all the zombies look like gold club workers and maybe lawn care workers too. Maybe they were killed and buried...and whatever they did in the grass reanimates them under his care. Hence the guard becoming one just by dying ontop of the grass -
MEANWHILE.
A golf lover is going through his own spiritual journey into the true platonic sincere golfdon as his journey involves him breaking each taboo and human weakness in the pursuit of golf. Hear me out.
His first act is breaking the rules - the initial act of sincere pursuit that one must all take -
His second act is commitment - he can't move on. He is literally blocked by a wall of his love of gold -
His third act is face opposition - the guard - and stay true to what he wants, regardless of the cost. The guard has no power over him and quickly is scared off. I think he's just a guard but I like to see him as a stand in for doubts or his own humanity or something.
His fourth act has his love of golf killing that part of him. The guard that act as his boundaries, doubt and sort of "return to the standard while you can" filter is gone.
His Fifth act is defiance of his own inner issues. The guard is dead, but his points and emotions attached to them are still alive. Hence he's still a threat. Id he run..he loses...because he's not playing golf. If he gives up, he loses. He must retain awareness of his issues internally lest they sneak up on him and make him quite, but if he fixates on them. They will also...like wise. Win. Because he has been drawn from the love of golf. Sort of like over obsessing on an anxiety.
His sixth act is not to be drawn in by the consideration and care of others, shown by the caddy. Who's probably the only guy to actually ask if he's fine in a long time but even he is scared. The caddy in turn is the act of others, family, friends, who want to stop his golfing obsession.
His final act is the ultimate dedication of LOVE OF GOLF over instincts and fear. He won't be scared away from what he does, even if it risks his life. In this victory...he ascends. This act is also connected to the prior one. The fear is both real and conenction to that concern. Saying "turn back...it's not worth your life (metaphorically and literally) you got people that care about you" but no. There is only one love for him now. The love of golf. Regardless of if those people are literally there or not, their gohst...their zombie is. This is also a ploy by the zombie deity. Id he backs down for love and others, he will be consumed in the cult that offers that - falsely but still -
As this is all going on, the zombie deity that now owns this land has been sort of sending these people -d irectly or indirectly - to test him. If he loses his will is shattered, without golf...the golfer needs soemthing new and will be effortlessly consumed into the horde of minions.
To represent his ascension as the perfect golf player. Not because of his SKILL...but because of his love the sport and meditations on it above all else. Golf balls, imbued with HIS power - rightly so. What would a golf deity do but put his power in the golf ball...not himself. That would be ego over golf - and fights the entity. He can't be dissuaded...he can't be stopped. He can't scared off or convinced. So long as he stays true to golf, his light, he will be safe and ultimately undefeatable. Even the zombie detiy himself admits at the second tree that he did not realize WHAT he is facing and immediately emerges to face him proper. Only a ascended can defeat another ascended.
So comes the final stand off. A false deity, one that seeks to engorge himself and controls other.s And a true golf one. Who needs nothing but his club and his ball and a target. He wins...as he should.
And whatever spell that split in the mortal world this cult made is cut. The ascended one returns to his normal life. This is the ending I don't get. I suppose that he had the ultimate golf game and so is truly satisfied at last. Not held back by his obsession and seeking of the most sincere, thrilling golf challenge that was the wall of text blockers on his way home.
Final evidence to my theory: When the people try to stop him, the music and camera goes in on THEM. Making them more uncomfortable and scared. This is because the golf player, the TRUE golf player is becoming increasingly ENRAGED at the audacity...the disgusting petulance of "authority" these worms try to hold over him playing golf. Valuing...land...rules....should be's...at a gold course...a SACRED place where golf is meant to be enjoyed. HE...THE PLAYER...is doing exactly as he should. They feel that disgust,that divine wrath rising...and flee.
Or maybe my fever is fucking wtih my head big time. I dunno. Still. I like my theory.
Honestly, I just thought our MC was possessed, hence the font change at the end and the apparent confusion as to where they were.
Jesus CHRIST my guy
Damn, that's a pretty in-depth analysis! Love the golfer's spiritual journey theory. Great stuff! :)
@@AlphaBetaGamer Thanks, kindred. Keep up the good work. Love your channel.
@@ToughAqua777 I think you're right, the zombie deity is definitely sort of worming his way into peoples heads in a way. But I feel like both our theories can coexist - in fact. The fact golf is the answer and his commitment to it sort of adds to it. It acts as his defence in a way.
"Find somewhere to jump [the] fence."
Ohh, this is going to get interesting REALLY quickly. Old people fence jumping to get their golf fix? Sounds like a recipe for a broken hip and a convoluted story to tell the police is on the menu...
least unhinged golfer
What golfer hasn't been inextricably compelled to break into a golf course, evade blood thirsty groundskeepers, and destroy a madness inducing golf god of chaos?
Pretty sure thats what the movie Bagger Vance is about
What an absolutely excellent horror game. Kino all the way.
Well that was one hell of a setting and one hell of a plot. 😂 like it!
nice music in this one
I played this with the enemies off, it still scared me 😂 also, I hit the ball over the canyon out of curiosity..
A kinder fate than most golfers deserve
The pacing in this is brilliant. Considering I find gold incredibly fucking boring, this actually managed to hold my interest!
A cool, resting golf course.
