Development

The game was developed by Squeegee Software a Portsmouth, New Hampshire-based company founded in 1994. [1] It was released on August 16, 1999, for Windows and Macintosh. [1]

Reception

IGN gave the game a score of 6 out of 10, stating: "Computer miniature golf may not sound like an addicting game, but Goofy Golf Deluxe will keep you coming back for more. It would have been nice if the game had a wider variety of course motifs and more characters to play as (you can only choose to be a boy or girl) and a better defined sense of humor, but these are essentially quibbles with a very solid title". [4]

MacAddict stated: "Goofy Golf Deluxe delivers what it promises: a simple putt-putt simulation that doesn’t break any new ground". [5]
