The fact that the Moo-er slides homerun style is easily my fav.

So much fun! The gain speed by turning mechanic feels a lot like trimping from tf2, very intuitive once you get the hang of it.

Fun game! Was a little tricky getting the hang of the moovement, but once I got the hang of it I had a blast! Some of the levels were kinda tricky, but boy can you send yourself flying haha. Good work!

I had never seen such an epic trailer before, I needed to try it immediately after seeing that cow with steel udders sliding around. I imagine the tiny creatures are the little cows.

The mechanics remind me of surfing in CS, quite satisfying and fun. It's a shame for all the baby cows I lost along the way while trying to fly towards nirvana, but I enjoyed it!

The space level was quite challenging but I like that. Good game and great humor.

In the 4th level, I struggled to find my third baby cow, but I never found it. I hope you make it back home someday, Gustavo.

We tried our darndest over here but neither of us could strafe like a professional cow would.
Once you get into a nice flow of dive, slide and yeet it's incredibly fun, and you can get some serious speed, but once careful mouse and keyboard coordination is necessary we just don't have that cowrdination, but that's on us and not the game.
I personally really enjoyed the overall silly atmosphere of the game and all the supplementary materials around it, plus the first funky track is absolutely perfect for it.

@drinlan WOW, thats by far the fastest time I've seen for the first attempt (I'd say it usually takes at least 30 mins the first time to get used to the mooovement)! That last cow is quite hidden so I've made it much easier to find in the ... *(prepare for the amazing segue)*

Post Jam Build Out Now! Has **full game & individual level leaderboards** in 3 categories **(100%, any%, genocide%)** for the taking! (Also a bunch of QOL additions including level select)

Including other mooovers that might be interested :)
