Learn Game Programming
DeVry's Game and Simulation Programming curriculum will prepare you for taking on various development roles in the game industry.
Game Art & Design Degree
Westwoods’s game art & design program will teach you everything you will need to know before you apply for a job in the game industry.
As said, this is a simple idea that I believe would add great fun and be more than worth playing.  Taking golf and its real physics into a working city.  How far this can be taken is based only within the limits of how big the environment can be.  For the ideas simplicity there's not much explaining in the way of gameplay to be done.  You take golf and make it fun.  Take an already established golf engine and implant it in this.  A few ideas for a hole would be in the middle of a busy street in downtown Manhattan.  With your goal being to get from one street to this oddly placed hole with pedestrians, buildings, gutters, and sewage drains all working against you.  Trying to make the final putt while trying to time it to when a civilian isn't crossing between you and the hole.  Or a different hole could be you teeing off one building into with the optimal window you need to shoot for being highlighted.  If you are to miss this the ball falls to the street and you put your way into the lobby and on an elevator and arrive at the needed floor.  or say you hit the wrong window on the same level then you put your way around office toward your intended goal.  Hit the wrong window on the wrong floor and hit the ball through more offices to the elevator to you floor.  While you are doing this there are people in the office staring at you bewildered and some walking that you have to again avoid.  Other ideas would be not having a hole neccasarily, but an object.  Teeing off an overpass while waiting for a certain colored minivan to come into view to shoot through the windshield of would be an example of this.  Or making your way to find a certain person that you need to hit in the head with the ball.  This is, after all, just for fun and no story nor purpose is needed.  This would be just a thing like Tony Hawk skateboarding where you hit the tree and bury the bullies.  Just pointless fun.  For the final 18th objective it could be to take out one of the birds also in the city (who, if you hit it too close to in the other holes, could eat the ball).  This would not have to be one city for all 18 holes.  It would also have more than just 18 for the entire game.  It could be based on real cities or those made up or a mixture of both.  My basic presentation is that I just want a golf game to be taken to the city or other bizzarre locations for this sport.

Well, I'm not a big golf fan, but in order to play this, I don't think you have to be. Seems that you've taken "minature golf" to its ultimate level-(nonlinear environments and obstacles). Just think of the little windmill as a gigantic skyscraper! This idea is rather interesting and contains a great deal of potential. Keep up the good work.

This game would be fun for a few days then get boring fast. I could never see this being a real video game the only thing it could ever become is an internet past time game, good imagination though. But I dont think it would stay interesting, give more ideas to keep this game interesting and fun.
