# Cow Hunter – About

Cow Hunter is a free browser arcade. You have ninety seconds, a car of your choice and a pen full of cows. Nothing to install, no account, no ads. Scores are filed in a shared table that everyone reads from the same service.

## About

Cow Hunter was written by Sergei Vorniches, software engineer and product maker. The country theme over the menu came from Pixabay; the rest of the music was written by the author.

The game is free and there is nothing to buy in it. No account exists, so there is nothing to sign up for and nothing to sign in to.

## How a round goes

You pick a vehicle and a colour, drive into a fenced pen in Grapeseed and score as much as you can before the clock runs out. A round is ninety seconds by default. Clock pickups add ten seconds each, so a good run lasts longer than the round it started as.

The round is run by the service, not by the page: the page sends what you pressed, the service replays it and decides the score. A round cannot be filed without one, which is why the game refuses to start when the table is unreachable.

## The vehicles

Three, in six colours each.

- Bison, a pickup. Heavy and solid, takes a bull better than anything else.
- Viper, a muscle car. Fastest of the three, slides easily, breaks just as easily.
- Cricket, a buggy. Light and nimble, fills its nitro fastest.
