Critter Toss is a laid-back pixel game about one simple thing: throwing a farm animal as far as you possibly can. Line up your angle, charge the power meter, and launch. The camera follows your critter the whole way as the distance markers tick by on the ground. Land a clean arc, catch a few bounces, and watch the meters climb. Every critter handles differently. The cow is heavy and flies far but barely bounces. The sheep is springy and loves a big second hop. The chicken is light and tends to float and skip. Finding the right animal for the throw you want is half the fun. Features: Simple two-tap controls: set your angle, then time your power A camera that follows every throw across the field Four critters, each with its own flight and bounce Distance markers and a saved best score to beat Cozy pixel art and a cheerful chiptune soundtrack Plays fully offline, no accounts, no ads, no tracking Pick it up for a quick toss or settle in to chase your best. There's always room for one more try.
