About Cow Cow Run
It's a quick arcade game where your only job is to keep the cow out of the aliens' path.
Every coin you pick up adds to your points, but the UFOs are what you really have to watch. The further you get, the more aliens show up, so the screen gets more crowded the longer you last.

Power-ups also appear along the way to help you out. Riskier coins pay out higher rewards, so you'll often be deciding whether a coin is worth moving into danger for.
The whole thing is drawn in chunky pixel art, with a cow as the hero and flying saucers as the enemies.
