Adventure Cows by PapaCheech
This is a game about farming. Kind of boring, really.
You farm. You spend time with your cows.
You love your cows.
And they love you.
Its too bad you decided to build your farm directly on top of a foreboding (yet talkative) pit. That wasn't too good of a choice.
It also wasn't the best choice to get attacked and murdered by a bunch of mustachioed robots. But that wasn't a choice. It was an inevitability.
Maybe you can save your cows.
Who knows.
Adventure cows!

Rarely laughed so much because of a LD game :D
No constructive crits come to mind. The shade of blue of the main guy sort of rubs me the wrong way for some reason.. just a personal thing, dunno, I'm not an artist!
Really great job though, I actually really enjoyed it!
Other stuff I liked--the VA, the horrible moment when I noticed the eyeballs all around me, the simultaneous attachment to and disdain for my own livestock.
Thank you for the game!
After a while I noticed that the cows had levels and that it actually mattered. So I would suggest having a clearer visual feedback on cow level up and at least for me it would have helped to give the player a breather by a short slow motion passage as that happened.
If I got it right, the cows would die if they got pushed out in that black void. If would have been nice with some animation for when that happened (maybe there was one but I was too focused on the remainder of my herd). And maybe hurting cows could have a "Moo" speech bubble or something to assist player in where the most pressing trouble is.
All in all a very nice game to play!
Cool and interesting - I did hit a wave where I was stuck on the bottom row (could only move left and right) which cleared up the next wave. No other glitches.
Uh I suck and my cowss hate me
but i bonded with them so thats good
im sad i failed them.
