Throw four bean bags at a board with a hole in it and beat the bot, in matches that take about two minutes. The bags slide, spin and knock each other in or off, and every venue answers back: a German shepherd fetches your long throws on the superyacht, the pigs root for your misses at Holy Crap Farm, and until 1 November a zombie hand drags your overthrows into a grave at Last Toss Cemetery, etc. It plays on a computer (hold Space to throw) or a phone (swipe up), nothing to install.

Gave this a few throws on a laptop. The drag-up-and-release throw worked first time with a mouse, so I was playing before I had read the instructions. The wind readout and the cornhole / woody / dirt breakdown on the scoreboard are nice touches, and the cemetery venue looks great.

One thing I ran into: on a short laptop screen (about 650px tall) the scoreboard and the bag do not fit on screen together, so I was scrolling between throwing and seeing where it landed until I spotted the fullscreen button. It might be worth nudging people toward fullscreen, or making the frame a little shorter.

My first throw landed well short in the dirt, so the Easy bot is safe for now.

Hey, I'll address short laptop screen as next. Also there will be couple of more random difficulties (not only Easy bot).
Thanx for checking.

Glad that was useful, and more bot levels sounds good. I will come back for another go once the short-screen fix is in.

A small ask in return, only if you have five minutes: I am looking for first-time players for my own browser game, a betting game with dice. I would really value your blunt first impression: Closest Call feedback thread. No worries at all if not.
