Great Pool Game with great GFX, good Phsx and great players.

i have mixed feelings. you must know, that i am a big fan of CL1. I bought CL1 on Oculus GO & PC and my expectations were big for CL2...
CL2 was released and i bought it on the Quest & PC.
First Shock, the GFX on my $1200 RTX2080ti+Index looks exactly the same on my Quests Snapdragon 835 Smartphone SoC, more or less.
The trees are looking awful. In CL1 the trees are full with leaves. Much more details and better Textures in CL1.
Textures on stones are not present, it looks very flat and loveless.
In a level with the sky in the background i couldnt believe what the deleopers and creators presented to me.
It looks like a total accident. The sky is only a flat, low resolution 360 degree picture, with ultra bad ISO, and chromativ abberations....
byside every star, you can see BIG red, green, blue blobs. I preffer a renderered sky, or a high resolution high ISO picture. it must not be a real photo, it could be computer generized picture. i think google picture search helps....
topic sky,... the clouds in cloudlands are not as good as the name cloudlands promise.
i will stop now, before i start to cry and lets move to the pros and cons.


pro:
- more elements in the level editor store
- 2 modes (golf/mini golf)
- natural wind, and wind from blowers
- editor on the quest avalable
- cloudlands 1 & 2 levels playble in multiplayer when both player playing CL2 app
(not possible to play against Oculus GO players live)
- a lot of userlevels from CL1 + CL2. (some from me... :-) )
- nice feature to follow the ball, after hitting the ball. (frequently press the front trigger)
- tons of level elements with funny functions
- theoreticaly unlimited new level designs, from online users created.
- a lot of freedom in the level editor, with the option to do freehand connecting parts (magnet off function)


con:
- bad textures, partwise bad sky wallpaper
- bad trees, worse then in CL1
- it looks that this app was developed specially for the quest and then it was quick and dirty compiled for the pc.
- no extra polish, no music volume slider for pc (only on/off) that sucks. i would like to share in the one or the other way same sound with my friends, also on the quest. on pc, there are some ways to do this with other programs in the background.
- not possible to play CL1 friends/opponets with Oculus GO
- missing an option slider to fade translucient for this annoying and ugly matrix lines byside some holes.
- the new level editor is grafically a downgrade. In CL1 the pickup table for parts was so pretty, and now?
- sometimes my opponents putter is too far away from his body. looks wired, some times. it seems he has got extra long arms to reach the putter.
- no free movement on the second controller stick. i know that the game is optimized to work with 2 hands and one controller. sometimes, in sitting position, its a pain to bring you exactly in front of the ball, and to place the putter exaclty how e like it.
- floor height was wrong on WMR + Quest. On Quest i could fix it in the oculus options/floor height adjustment settings.(in the Oculus settings menu). The OculusButtonLongPress recalibration did not work.


wishes:
- addon pack with higher quality and more 3d polished/shaded textures.
- in editor: (volumetric) colored light souces, like candles, fire sticks, to place in the cave levels, for more immersion and better looking lights on the wall textures.
- addon better trees, more glas elements in the creators store, like in CL1 the first 10 levels.
- addon option to insert a (to my friends automaticly shared) streamlink and/or youtube for web radio in the game. after a couple of hours, the same sounds....
- level filter buttons or drop down menu for easier finding only minigof games. for ex.: golf/minigolf/mixed
- needs option/button to fix floor height. the menu i found, does not the job.
- and in this "height" menu i miss "CM" Centimeter. We in Europe dont know what 7"01`is...

conclusion:
its okay, but grafically not exactly as good as version CL1. it has got more elements, thats great, but the grafix over all did not impress my at all.
hopefully the developers are polishing some things. but let me say, the game fun is not all about the gfx. the PHYSICS IS VERY GOOD and
its allways fun to play against the scoreboard or better play online with your friends. you can spend hours and hours in this game and
you will forget the time. the sozial aspect is a bid deal in VR and THIS GAME IS GREAT to hang out with your friends.

to the devs: please polish it on PC to CL1 standart or better :-)

dear gamer: dont forget, when you read my review, some time is gone and maybe... some things could be fixed/optimized.

must have, no more words. grab it!

this game needs definitly a VR mode.
hopefully the producer will think about it.
