My bud Jake at Nuclear Nova Software recently launched updates for two of his most popular titles… GL Golf and Rocket Golf. The update to GL Golf is the tenth major update for the golf game, and in this latest version you’ll be able to download six new courses. Also, a new method of reading greens has been built-in, and the app itself has been condensed to take up 20% less disk space. Rocket Golf has one new course available for download, and course updates and improvements have been made to thirteen previously released holes. On top of the updates mentioned above, the usual mix of small tweaks and bug fixes have been included as well. For more information check out GL Golf (iTunes link) and Rocket Golf (iTunes link) in the App Store. Before you get started with the paid versions of GL Golf and/or Rocket Golf, I’d suggest giving Read More

Calendar16 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:38:48 UTC +00:00
Looks like my bud Jake over at Nuclear Nova Software has been hard at work on one of my favorite golf games for the iPhone and iPod Touch… GL Golf. He’s updated GL Golf (along with GL Golf Deluxe and ‘Lite’), bringing all versions up to 1.09. In the latest edition you’ll get 12 new courses (awesome), four new clubs, a 50% increase in performance and many, many, many bug fixes and tweaks. To celebrate the update, Jake is offering GL Golf for $0.99 (regular $4.99) and GL Golf Deluxe for $5.99 (regular $7.99). The discounts are good for a week, so I’d recommend trying before you buy with the ‘Lite’ version… If you like, pick up the standard or deluxe version before next Monday to save a few bucks. Other notable improvements in 1.09 include: Tee it up, and let ‘er rip. FORE!!! James was born and raised in Winnipeg, Read More

Calendar16 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 14:04:54 UTC +00:00
I’ve updated my copy of GL Golf more than a few times, and each new update has brought new features and enhancements… But nothing really game-changing. This time around, with the 1.08 update, my good bud Jake over at Nuclear Nova Software has made some real solid improvements… it’s stuff you’re going to want to check out if you love this game.

If you’d like to try it out for yourself, you can pick up GL Golf Lite for free (iTunes link), or pick up the full version of GL Golf for $4.99 (iTunes link) or GL Golf Deluxe for $7.99 (iTunes link). Thanks Jake! James was born and raised in Winnipeg, Canada. Read More
Nuclear Nova Software Updates GL Golf for iPhone
Calendar16 Thu, 07 May 2009 17:33:39 UTC +00:00
Looks like my bud Jake over at Nuclear Nova Software has been busy… And with good reason. The recent influx of new golf games (and mini golf games) to the App Store has meant stiff competition for his GL Golf title on the iPhone. GL Golf still remains one of my favorites, and the ‘Lite’, ‘Standard’ and ‘Deluxe’ versions have all been updated with performance enhancements, new features, and a whole lot more. You can read about all of the changes in the press release after the jump. For now, if you’d like to check out all versions you can head over to Nuclear Nova Software, or hit up the appropriate link to download via iTunes below: Nuclear Nova Updates GL Golf for iPhone/iPod Touch Nuclear Nova Software today announced updates to GL Golf, GL Golf Deluxe, and GL Golf Lite, bringing all versions up to 1.06.

Fabulous Golf Game
Purple player 137 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
Fun and addicting!! I'm a golfer and an avid Tiger Woods video game player and this game is great! It is different in a good way, simple but very entertaining. Graphics are okay and putting can be tricky. All in all it has become one of my favorite apps. Highly recommended. Thanks fore bringing it to the iPhone.
An Obscure Gem That Keeps Me Playing on My iPhone
g0nz 4.0 stars Version: 1.00
This is casual golf on a mobile platform at its best.
Great golf game!
brussell14 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
I'm not often really interested in golf games or even real golf, but I really enjoyed this game. The graphics aren't the best, but they're still pretty nice for a phone. It's great that the game saves frequently so that if you get a call or if you quit, you can pick up right back where you were. It supports 1 - 4 players (on one device). So my friends and I have been having fun passing it around to see who could get the best score.
Great Game, Great Depth, but where is the 3rd click on the swing?
sooner2k1 3.0 stars Version: 1.01
This game is great in so many ways, so i'll just creat a list of the pros and the few cons to help the potential buyers.
fun gameplay, click yes if you agree with the suggestion
the napsterr 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
It looks like it might not be that much fun, but after buying it, I think its the best app in the itunes store. The graphics are pretty good, you can choose the clubs you want, and putting is very detailed with hills, so you have to aim the ball in the right direction and use the right speed. The power bar took a minute to get used to, but then worked really great. This game is definately worth the $8, and is probably the best golf game in the store.
Excellent golf app
Gentleman_Songster 4.0 stars Version: 1.00
I've played Jake's GLGolf on the Mac for several release versions. I didn't expect the iPhone version to be comparable, but it is quite comparable, and a fun game to play. I still have some problems controlling the actual stroke of the club, (which is why I didn't give it 5 stars), but overall, I think it's a very well-designed game, looking forward to more courses?
Excellent and casually fun
btrivedi 4.0 stars Version: 1.00
A really solid game - easy to pick up but not too easy that it gets boring. Excellent array of options concerning courses, time of day, front 9, back 9, time of the season! Fun to play while waiting at the airport or something like that. Would very much like to have a scorekeeping feature though to keep track of progress.
Real nice game
Nelbikmit 4.0 stars Version: 1.00
Simple, fairly easy to pick up, with enough variety for good replay value. Yes the graphics are not super, but they are pleasing nontheless in a kindof 2 dimensional way. Putting is tricky but not unfair. Occasional quirky glitches such as repeated 'wiffs' in certain spots (couldnt be my golf game) don't subtract too much, although I hope they finetune in a future update. High recommendations--no possible disappontments--unless you are a fine graphics nut (only reason for 4 stars) and expect a desktop type game experience.
Great game with a few glitches
yellinatya 4.0 stars Version: 1.00
Very addictive! Best golf ap out there. Few glitches though... 1. Backspin doesn't give you back spin...just slows the ball down a tiny bit... 2. Speed on the putting is way off and I think the roll to the cup could be truer on misreads of the line and not quite so brutally punishing. 3. Rendering needs work on long putts, sometimes the hole disappears. Lastly, and Im not going to list it because it's so minor, but approach shots roll shorter when they're in short and in front of the green, as opposed to when you fly the hole, the ball rolls forever... Despite the kinks, this is a great golf sim!!
A good fit
JayArrh 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
I don't have time to master complicated game programs, so GL golf has been fantastic for me. I can style my shots, select clubs & play a few different courses without getting bogged down in player selection, conditions, and learning subtle tricks to make the game work. Graphics are a little rough compared to the Mac version and putting is rather unpredictable, but this is a great way to relax for a few minutes with something more interesting than solitaire, or some other board-type game.
You will not be disappointed this is hands down the best golf game on the iPhone!
01110010 01111001 01000001 01001110 5.0 stars Version: 1.01
First off I want to say how great this game is and how well they designed the whole user control system, the other golf apps I have played have excellent graphics and look to them but the controls are just not intuitive to me and it is like there is just too much stuff going on which makes it very hard to just play the game in my opinion. This app is very intuitive though and I had not looked at the help menu until probably the 20th or so time I played the game and only did to verify that I was doing a few things correctly. I really do not like golf in real life for the most part, but man this game is so fun. You can start playing in about ten seconds and play 18 holes or just one if you want. I have played the few other golf apps on the iphone and this one is far and away the best app. I would suggest you try their demo version first just to be sure you do not like the game and that way you have nothing to lose. I suspect you will do as I did and buy the full app, it is well worth the money you will spend. There is nothing more I can say to tell you about the game play except go get the trial version and you will purchase the full version within a day! (unless you're a cheap @ss and are one of the "it's too expensive" people, "if only it were a dollar cheaper I would definitely buy it") There is nothing wrong with being "frugal" but god damn I can't stand those people who post comments like that, it's one f'ing dollar. Really your cheap @ss is not going to buy something because it is 1 dollar too much. Sorry for the rant but I just can't stand people like this, I think it is partly due to their ignorance and partly because their intelligence quotient is below par. Ok finally done with the rant and enjoy the game and I can't wait until the dev releases more courses. If you also would like to see more courses added to the program maybe you could write the dev and it will motivate them to add more. Also I thought it would be really cool if we were able to create our own courses somehow, maybe like the way Labyrinth and Enigmo have their systems. Enjoy the app and thanks again to you devs for making an amazingly great program.
Best golf game for the iPhone!
Joe Bacon 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
WOW! It's just as fun as the full Mac version. It's a lot of fun to play!
Great Game
jlach61 4.0 stars Version: 1.05
Been looking at par 72 golf for a while and I decided to wait for a better game. When gl golf came out I looked it up and was impressed by a gameplay vid. It is very fun and I can't put it down. A must for any golf fans although there are a few glitches it is great and worth the $$.
Well done
Ndreger 4.0 stars Version: 1.00
Yes! Great game. Made double eagle first round. Speed could be improved but other wise very similar to full version. I may break out the iPhone instead of the MacBook for a quick 18.
I don't play or watch golf...
iPhone Convert 5.0 stars Version: 1.01
...but have a strange fascination with videogame golf. This reminds me of the old golf game that used to come with the now defunct Windows Entertainment Pack. I played many hours of that game and missed it greatly. This one fills the void...and even offers newer options for me to enjoy. Oh yeah, the usual...it's stable, controls well, and yadda yadda yadda. Great app.
Save your cash.. Wish I did...
MMDF 1.0 stars Version: 1.00
If you love golden tee, save your money. I played one round, checked out the rest of the game and I wish I could get a refund. This one is trash. Save the memory on your phone for a song or a picture of your dog!
GL Golf
nccet 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
Amazing - it has all the features I need to take my golf on the road. Not sure if I need all the weather and time of day features in this version but the replication of the original - and continually improving - Mac version is a best buy. Thanks, Jake.
Best golf game on the iPhone
kiplingwilliams 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
I have GLGolf on my Mac and I was anxiously waiting for them to get an iPhone version. I just downloaded it, and it works great. I love this game!
Can't Stop Playing!!!!
Specter800 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
This game is totally amazing, I think everyone should get it. I was waiting for a game like this since launch. THANK YOU DEV!!! Just one question: Would it be possible to make an update that keeps a "personal best" list for like farthest drive, longest putt and DEFINITELY include a "Best Par for 'X' Course" where X is the name of the specific course. Just two problem: Some times when putting I lose sight of the hole due to the rendering, would it be possible to leave the flag in until you are a certain distance from the hole? Sometimes on the drive I cannot see the flag all the time. This is in the same vein as the above statement. These are not major hinderances in fact I have only experienced the putting problem once in about 50 holes, but the driving issue occurs about once every 10-15 holes. THIS SHOULD NOT KEEP YOU FROM GETTING THE GAME! It is worth AT LEAST 5 stars it is EXCELLENT.
Addictive Fun
revdrtomb 4.0 stars Version: 1.00
I have few games on my Mac, but this is one, so I'm delighted it's available for the iPhone. It may not be as sophisticated as some computer golf games, but the variety of courses (new courses are always being added) and the ease with which you can pick this game up make it well worth the price. I've been playing now for at least 2-3 years, and I'd be embarrassed to admit how many hours I've logged (and STILL been unable to crack the top scores). Give it a try — you won't be disappointed.

I play this games more than the others on my iPhone. Very well played, I have had this on my phone for months. Play with co-workers and it's a lot of fun!
awesome game!
eaglegolfer 5.0 stars Version: 1.01
great game! most addicting game i have purchased. worth every penny...although i think the developer would get more downloads if the price was lowered..just a suggestion...A+ GAME
Love it but.....
Stevem977 1.0 stars Version: 1.01
Needs a score keeper or saver I'll change my review to five stars when this happens ... Best game app on iPhone
Nice game, but the graphics could be done better
JoJo_nl 4.0 stars Version: 1.04
It is a nice game but the graphics could be done better. The graphics are a bit annoying especially when you hit the ball, in the air the field is a bit noisy. For me it took about 15 minutes to get used of the controls. The gameplay is no too difficult.
Gr8 game
I'm Just Say'n 4.0 stars Version: 1.01
Very good green and faiway play. Nice how the lie on fairway and rough requires different clubs. Needs scorecard badly. Also record of previous high scores per course. Four day tourn would be nice too.
Great Golf Game
OzF16 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
I've had GL Golf for the Mac for a long time now. It isn't bogged down with a bunch of frivolous extras -- it's just a fun game to play, and several of the courses are quite imaginative and different.
Good Golf Game, Faithful to the Desktop Version!
AricP 5.0 stars Version: 1.00
This game is a lot of fun if you enjoy playing golf. I highly recommend it.
Real Golf!
CruiseRon 5.0 stars Version: 1.07
This is a great game for real golfers. Tiger Woods and Let's Golf have a lot of fluff. I don't need a bunch of incessant blabber and unnecessary graphics slowing down a golf game. That might be fine for kids. And now GL Golf has added a driving range. It's informative to see all the golf balls from your drives on or around the green. Terrific game.
