Which Kirby spin-off is a miniature golf video game for the SNES?

Kirby's Dream Course is the Kirby spin-off that turns miniature golf into an SNES game.

Released in 1994, the game was developed by HAL Laboratory and Nintendo EAD for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Rather than walking through a conventional platforming stage, players launch Kirby across isometric courses, using angle, power, and spin to defeat enemies and reach the goal. Each defeated enemy generally yields a star, while the final remaining enemy becomes the hole.

The concept began as a standalone project called Special Tee Shot. HAL later replaced its original characters with Kirby characters after Kirby's popularity on the Game Boy helped make the theme a stronger fit. That history explains why Dream Course feels like both a sports game and an unusual Kirby adventure.

It is sometimes confused with Kirby's Pinball Land or Kirby's Block Ball, both of which are other Kirby spin-offs built around different genres. Dream Course also includes copy abilities, such as tornado, spark, and UFO forms, making its mini-golf mechanics distinctly Kirby-like. Its eight single-player courses contain eight holes each.
