nope, hopes to keep putting out more throughout year but depends on success of the game
Slybelle is correct.
Hopefully all goes well and there are a sufficient number of courses sold so that Gary just keeps developing more and more courses and releases these regularly (monthly???). The good thing about that is that if you don't want to buy any, no problem...use the 2 courses that come with the game and any course mods if and when someone comes up with them; if you want to buy just a limited number or specific courses, no problem...just buy what you want/need; if you want to buy them all, no problem...get the whole enchilada; and if you initially want to buy them all but at some point determine you have enough or just don't want to spend more $$ on courses, no problem...it's your option. It all becomes a "whatever works for you" situation.
My expectation (or maybe better, my guess) is that, at least initially, Gary will develop and release 3 courses at a time and you can purchase any of those 3 for $5 each or that pack of 3 for $12...of maybe you will be able to pick any 3 available individual courses for $12. We'll just have to wait and see how that all evolves.
My understanding is that the development/creation of each of these complex,detailed and beautiful courses is pretty time-intensive and that's why a whole slew of courses isn't available immediately upon release of the game.
