Milk Farm

Milk Farm is a cheerful catching game set on a farm, with a simple idea that is easy to learn and hard to put down. A farmer holding a bucket stands at the bottom of the screen while milk drops fall from above, and your task is to slide left and right to catch as many as possible. Each catch fills a bar on the screen, and when the bucket is full you must empty it before you can keep collecting, which adds a small element of timing to the basic catching. Miss a drop and you lose a life; the lives indicator on screen shows how many chances you have left, and the game ends when they are gone. Where the drops fall is random, so you need quick reactions and good positioning to keep going as your score climbs. A score counter shows your progress, and after the game over screen you can enter your name to be recorded among the top five players, stored on the computer you play on. The game has a simple menu, a Help screen that explains the controls, a short intro, and light background music with a sound on and off option. Controls are on the keyboard, with the left and right arrow keys to move the farmer and a key press to empty the bucket. Because there is nothing to read and the action starts instantly, Milk Farm is ideal for children and for anyone who wants a short, relaxing reflex game.
