Wonderputt
Wonderputt is a 2011 Flash and iPhone mini-golf game that was developed by Reece Millidge/Damp Gnat. It was built using the source code for Millidge's previous games Adverputt & Microputt.[1] The creative aesthetics of the game received praise; Tom Curtis of Gamasutra likened the visuals to an M.C. Escher drawing.[1] It was an Independent Games Festival finalist for the Excellence in Visual Art award in 2011.[2][3][1][4] The game was developed over a 6-month period in 2011 and was first released on Kongregate.[1] The game reached the #1 spot for paid apps in the UK Apple store and had sold over 100,000 copies by May 2013.[5]
