Driven Insane by Budaniel
Your neighbor has a nice job in the city, and you - a bit of a country bumpkin - hate him for it. Rally your barnyard animal friends to try and wreck his car on its way to work.
> Read the How to Play before playing. Seriously.
> Press 1, 2 or 3 to select an animal to use.
> Click on the street to place the animal on the road.
> Cows do damage, pigs do some damage and remove health icons, and squirrels steal health icons
>> IMPORTANT: Cows do more damage the longer they are one the screen before they hit the car, so place them as far ahead of the car as you can. This is key to beating the game.
Good luck, and wreck that car!

I wouldn't say that he made it to work SAFELY, per se. :) Interesting idea, and solid execution. Good audio as well.

Gee, struggled to get rid of the car honestly. I tried 4 times, maybe I am just bad at it :P I like the concept, it does match the theme. It was funny too. Sometimes it seems like I was just placing them as soon as the countdown ended, not really using strategy, which made me feel more robot than player. Overall, I enjoyed this game and it's mechanic :)

@Mixer I've heard few times from various people that it's hard to kill the car, and I think that's partially because I did a bad job explaining a key mechanic: the car takes more damage the longer the cow is on the road before the car hits it, so place it at the far right of the screen for maximum damage. I updated the description above to hopefully help clarify that. Glad you liked the mechanic!

Big thanks to everyone who's rated and commented on the game so far from Floata (the game's co-developer) and I.

Cool game. It'd be nice if some new mechanics were introduced as the level advanced. Really solid entry :)
