Putting is also a bit awkward, the impulse force doesn't seem to snap to the ball in obvious ways so you sometimes get unpredictable results.
Love the art style.
Otherwise, this is great. I only got to hole 3 before the darkness came over me, but man... The humor's fantastic, from the parking job to the conversation. The putting is pretty solid once you figure out that you can give it a pretty good whack. Love the art style, too.
And yes, I hit the F key! :D
enjoy the conversation xD
The dialog text was very small, so I missed some of it. I also intuitively wanted to draw either a path for the ball or the direction of my swing, but the mechanic is that I draw the windup of the swing, and not the swing itself. This took some trial and error.
I'm a bit curious what would happen if I had continued to golf.
The art style is perfect. Some sound would have been nice. The controls are a little odd at first, but I think they actually added some charm and they grew on me as I went through. The dialogue definitely kept me involved and I wanted to see where it went. Overall a very solid entry.

Loved the graphics!
Even with black and white graphics and no sound the mood was pretty good, somehow it reminded me of American Psycho, especially towards the start. Nice banter and an interesting ending.
I'm actually glad it ended there though. Even if minigolf games are kind of fun the controls got to me quite fast. There was lots of down time too, which might've helped the mood but not the gameplay.
