Lee Carvallo's Putting Challenge is a golf video game developed and published by Aaron Demeter as a free browser game on 2020-06-13. The game is designed to mimic the fictitious video game seen in The Simpsons episode 7-11 which was hilariously bad. The game was programmed using Unity.

Personal

Own?	No. This game was never sold.
Won?	Yes. All endings.
Finished	2023-01-01.

I saw a video of this game online and thought it looked funny, so I followed the link and played it. Although the game doesn't have an system in place for seeing all the variations of the end, I'm confident I reached them all because I brute-forced the selections.

Good

• The game accurately depicts the scenes from game shown in The Simpsons as well as all of the audio.

Bad

• Although the graphics look pretty close to the TV show, there are several problems.
  • The graphics renderer uses anti-aliasing on some pixels which hurts the retro feel.
  • The pixels of the sprites don't quite line up to the background resulting in jittery graphics for anything that's moving.
  • The title screen leaves much to be desired.

Ugly

• Since the game it was meant to mimic was awful, this game is too. It's good for a chuckle, but that's it.
