After killing the cow way too many times (sorry cow) I finally saved it. 

Loved how the music becomes increasingly tense and the pixel art :)

Submitted

Awesome game. It reminds me of plain old Flash games ;)

A simple but incredibly effective and addictive game; I'm a fan of the graphics.

Developer

Thanks so much! Glad you liked it :)

Super clean art design, and what a fun game idea ;) 

Developer(+1)

Thanks (suspect looking alien that steals cows). Haha, glad you enjoy it :)

Really cool concept—it kept me hooked. It takes a bit of time to get used to the controls, but I really like how smooth they feel overall.

Developer

Thanks Phoenix. Appreciate it! Glad you liked it :)

Developer

Haha, I'm glad you liked it. Sorry for the mouse :)) the cow is grateful for the sacrifice :))

Had me hooked trying over and over.

Also love the theme hahahaha we both went with cows

Developer

Nice! Glad you liked it.

So you are the alien that keeps coming back to steal the cow :)) 

Submitted

Hahahahahaa I guess so

it's fun! the timing is a bit tight though, would be awesome if there's a little arc preview like in Angry Birds. other than that i like the concept!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Glad you like it :)

Really cool idea and fun game. Only issue, is that you sometimes drag your mouse off of the game window because the catapult is in the bottom corner of the screen. You might want to allow users the ability to select and aim anywhere from that general area, so they can place their mouse click more in the middle of the window and not so close to the bottom of the screen. Otherwise, it's a good game.

Developer

Thanks! That's an interesting idea. Thanks for the suggestion. I will start working on it, and if it feels okay in testing, I will update the game with it

does this hurt the cow ;(((   

(super fun concept, loved it!)

Developer(+1)

No, no animal (or alien) was harmed in the making of this game (except, well... only if you hit the cow :)) )

Thanks for playing. Glad you enjoyed it :)

Awesome small game! Looks like angry birds as others said

Developer

Thanks!

Really nice concept. The mechanic reminds me of angry birds hahaha. Managed to get a HS of 7. Nice one!

Developer

Thanks! Glad you liked it

Took me a while to catch the difference between the cow being abducted and me accidentally killing it, lol. Fullscreen mode would sort out difficulties aiming and shooting the catapult. Thanks for sharing!

Developer

Yeah, I am working on a fix for that issue. Thanks for the suggestion and for playing!

Nice game, the artstyle, the music and the SFX fits so well and its quite difficult but not really impossible!

Developer

Thanks a lot. Glad you liked playing it! Yeah, that was where I wanted to be in terms of difficulty. Not to easy to finish it in one go, but also not too frustrating :)

This was a lot of fun to play and the physics that go with the momentum of your catapult shot are very well done. I lost a few times trying to drag my mouse but being off the game screen prevented me from shooting. The art, and game play were amazing and this is amazingly done! :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much, appreciate the kind words. I am happy you liked it. Sorry if it cause some inconvenience, I am working on a fix for the mouse leaving the game screen

Submitted(+1)

Pretty fun game! My score was 10.

However, the game not being in full screen was a pain, cuz when my mouse went out of the window to pull the catapult back, i couldnt shoot and lost a couple of times because of that. I like that you can kill the cow by mistake too, would have loved to have some funny text along with it when you kill the cow.

Developer(+1)

Nice, good job on that score. Sorry for the inconvenience, I am working on a fix for the mouse leaving the window. Haha, nice suggestion, I will think to some funny texts for when you kill the cow. Thanks for playing
