Play an alien from outer space that came to Earth to try to get as many cows as possible to satiate their need for dairy. Your only problem is that your spacecraft can only abduct a cow if it's isolated from all other animals. Luckily, you have your handy digging laser that you can use to separate your targets from any other creatures!

Tip: the number of stars you get each level depends on your score. Try to build up your score multiplier by abducting as many cows as possible with a single line!

Note: the web build doesn't support a blur visual effect used in some menus. There should be no difference gameplay-wise, but the windows version does offer this effect.

Controls

- Press and hold [left click] to draw a line where your laser will dig.

- Use [right click] to cancel drawing a line.

- Press [P] to pause.

- Press [R] to restart the current level.

There is a skip level button available in the pause menu.

really cool entry bro! reminded me of Webs of Vernax the old neopets flash game which I loved growing up. really interesting mechanic for a puzzle game and i very much enjoyed your twist on it. the art is charming and the sound is adequate even if the background song is a little meh. the custom cursor is a nice touch too. its a really well made puzzle game that I had fun playing, great job!

I thought the stars were just based on how many lasers used

Thank you for playing! Yes, you can get 3 stars on all levels!
