Macro Golf is a Unity Asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Vitok, took the [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/mini-golf-76193]Mini Golf[/url] Unity Store tutorial/demo/game asset pack from the real developers, Daniel Buckley, changed the name, and dumped the result onto Steam. They're attempting to scam people into buying this, so they can get your money for someone else's work.
Vitok have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab. Here's some examples so you can see for yourself:

The products that result from asset flips aren't "real" games. They lack depth and content, because they're just simplistic copies of demos or tutorials. In this case, "Mini Golf" is just a demo showing off a way to make a minimalist physics based "golf" putting game, and doesn't have any merit as a proper, fully fledged PC game, so a copy+paste of it can't be recommended.
Asset flips don't involve any professional game development. Sure, sometimes they may change a few cosmetic things, swap out different assets etc, but at heart it's functionally identical to the asset they're ripping off.
Asset flips like this are harmful to the gaming industry and to Steam because they reduce the visibility that sincerely made indie games should have, and make it harder for gamers to find real games from genuine developers.
Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from Vitok.
