Yeet A Cow!
The core loop — yeet, earn, unlock
StepThe moment you join a server, you can start yeeting cows right away. Each cow you send flying earns you Flips, which are the currency you spend to unlock new epic abilities. More abilities mean more ways to fight both cows and other players in the same room.
- Yeet cows to earn Flips.
- Spend Flips to unlock new epic abilities.
- Battle cows and other players using your abilities.
Abilities worth knowing about
TipsTelekinesis and UFO are both confirmed abilities in the game, each sending cows airborne in their own way. The Hoof is a newer ability added in Update 21 and requires a gamepass to access. Update 21 also brought fresh animations to several existing abilities.
- Telekinesis lets cows fly — unlocking it also earns you the Telekinesis badge.
- UFO causes cows to get abducted — earning the UFO badge confirms you have used it.
- The Hoof is a gamepass ability added in Update 21, separate from the Flip unlock system.
- Existing abilities received new animations in Update 21.
Boss fights and damage milestones
CheckBosses were added in Update 21 and drop exclusive rewards when defeated. Your total damage dealt to boss cows is tracked across fights, and badges unlock at 10,000, 100,000, and 1,000,000 damage. The one-million mark is described by the developers themselves as something many said was impossible. A completely separate badge, Big cow: 0, me: 1, is awarded only if you defeat a boss entirely on your own.
- Deal 10,000 total damage to boss cows to earn the first milestone badge.
- Reach 100,000 total damage for the second milestone badge.
- Hit 1,000,000 total damage for the hardest milestone badge, which the developers call an accomplishment many said was impossible.
- Attempt a solo boss kill no other players dealing damage — to unlock Big cow: 0, me: 1.
Hidden characters and rare badges
TipsBeyond the main gameplay, the game contains two hidden characters — Floppa and Maxwell the cat. Spotting either one rewards you with a dedicated badge. There is also a badge called Wow that you receive by being in the same server as one of the developers.
- Search the map for Floppa to earn the Found Floppa badge.
- Find Maxwell the cat to earn the Found Maxwell badge.
- The Wow badge comes from randomly sharing a room with a developer.
- The Halloween badge is earned by playing during the Halloween event.
- Several badges — including oh no, Super Angry Cow, and the 🗿 badge — have descriptions that reveal nothing about how to get them.
