Yearnin' For A Yank by Cozy Bear

[raw]
made by Cozy Bear for LD 40 (JAM)

A competitive couch game about gettin' milked!

Word's going 'round that the farmer is getting ready to send a few of his lesser earning cows off to the butcher. Prove you're the creamiest cash cow with all the milk you can muster! But be careful, or you might just burst.

One Xbox 360 controller per player recommended. 2-4 players Windows.

"It's mediocre at best, but for the times when you're hurtin' for a honk this'll hold you over" -Fanboy Magazine Opinion Columnist, Seymour Butts Jr.

Fun little game, really love the art style. The cows didn't come back in round 4, not sure what happened. Still quite fun couch co-op. Nice work!

Can't get game to start. :( And after all those official accolades I am really yearning for a yanking.

this is... unusual... im sorry i would love to yank but i dont have two controllers(and we all know that yanking with one controller is not satysfying enough)... im sure game is extremely fun, extremely addicting. But if you dont include some kind of single player mode or just simply allow to use keyboard instead of controller, there will be small anount of players who enjoys your game. And its sad :( i will rate only humor and graphics from your presentation. Im sorry i could not rate actual gameplay. Also, consider use better game store option. Like itch.io

Really cool game! I grabbed my girlfriend and we started yanking. The graphics are geat and the controls are perfect. It was very clear what to do. On the yanking part, we weren't sure how to do it, if there was a rhythm or scheme to follow. After round 3, my cow finally got made into hamburgers, but then the game kind of bugged out. I guess there should be a win screen, but it was round 4 without any cows.
In any case, great game! I wish there was sound too, but it was really fun anyway, also love your humor! I really hope you get enough ratings, not too easy with 2 controllers and local coop ;)

Oh, and the chase to get into the barn in time was thrilling, we always made it on the last second. And the hands, they are sooo disgusting :D

Such a shame this requires two controllers, screenshots looks nice and I'd really love to play this game, maybe you can at least do gameplay video? I'd be happy to rate based on it.

Thanks for everyone's comments! We plan on adding keyboard support for those without controllers. Additionally, we'll include an endgame condition and increase flow between game scenes. Keep an eye out for a gameplay video as well!
