Evaluation
Vertiginous Golf launched as a 1.0 release on May 6, 2015, following roughly fifteen months in Early Access. At launch, the developers described the game as content-complete, shipping 45 courses, a story mode, online and offline multiplayer, race and battle arena modes, and a course editor with Steam Workshop support.
Following launch, the developers shipped a series of post-launch patches: a hotfix with custom course playlist support on May 21, 2015, and a further quality-of-life update on June 12, 2015 adding aiming aids and visual improvements. The only DLC — the Gold Pack — released on May 7, 2015, the day after launch.
The most recent developer communication on record is the October 26, 2015 server notice, which was purely operational (addressing a multiplayer server issue during a promotional event) and contained no indication of planned future content. No new content, roadmaps, or development announcements have appeared since that date.
The last substantive content update shipped on June 17, 2015, and no further content has been announced or delivered in the decade since. The game launched as a finished product and its post-launch patch activity concluded in mid-2015. All DLC has been released.

About this game
Vertiginous Golf is a dystopian steam punk mini golf adventure game set in the skies above an alternate world where life on the ground is enveloped in permanent smog, constant darkness and never-ending rain.
After suffering on the ground under a haze smog and pollution, the people of Scudburough have been split in half by a lottery, with the winners heading up into the clouds to live in a floating city called New Lun-Donne. For those left below, they can get a temporary escape from the gloom through the Verti-Sphere, a device that allows them to rise virtually into the cloudy paradise to play mini golf on challenging obstacle courses floating in the sky. But something is amiss in this nation of two cities. Another voice is trying to break through the propaganda messages of peace and prosperity… the voice of an insurrection.
Chip and putt your way through beautiful golf courses floating far above the smog-covered streets below. Play through the unique story mode courses to uncover the mystery of the Verti-sphere. Enjoy 54 classic holes ranging from simple miniputt to mind-bending courses that will test even the most skilled golfers, as well a driving range and race challenges.
Take on these insane obstacle courses filled with hazards and contraptions. Look through the eyes of your mechanical hummingbird companion to explore and unlock the secrets of the green. Use the jewel encrusted beetle to control your ball once it’s in motion and make good use of your limited rewind power to redeem yourself from a bad shot.
What's better than a leisurely round of golf in the sky? A leisurely round of golf in the sky with up to three friends, of course! All the courses can be enjoyed in multiplayer either locally or online. There are also two more unusual multiplayer modes to enjoy: race each other to the finish on the race tracks or fight over control of the holes in the unique battle golf arenas whilst using a variety of offensive weapons to disrupt your opponents.
A fully featured map editor means you can design your own fiendish courses and share them with the community. Who knows what the mad inventors of you will come up with? For the more aesthetically inclined you can tinker for hours with the look of your clubs, your mechanical hummingbird companion and your avatar in Frolich's Emporium.
