Buttermilk Forever
B.U.T.T.E.R. M.I.L.K. Forever: a portrait arena brawler. Pick your fighter and knock everyone off the level.
About
Pick one of four fighters, Brie, Dave, Cow or the Rocket, and take on the other players across grassy metal platforms with lasers, grenades and rockets. Fall off the level and you are the loser; the scoreboard keeps count.
It is built for a phone held upright: the portrait stage fills the screen, with an on-screen D-pad, a parallax pixel-art sky and its own music, and it runs straight in the browser.
