Help the horned dung beetle to defend its throne as the strongest insect on Earth by showcasing its power in the event of Hammer Throw! Your goal in this game is to throw the ball and reach the farthest possible distance within 3 attempts. When the game starts, the dung beetle will get ready in the cage. To start swinging the hammer, you need to press and hold your mouse, then move the mouse around the dung beetle in counterclockwise direction for as fast and wide as you can. A power gauge on the left of the screen will indicate your current swinging speed. When the number of swings is enough, a curved power gauge will appear on the right of the screen. You can then release the mouse to throw when the ball reaches the green area of the power gauge. Remember not to release the mouse when the ball is on the left of the screen or the red areas of the curved power gauge, otherwise it will fly towards the cage and crash. If the throw is clean, the distance will be displayed. The game continues and you can prepare for the next attempt. The best distance and the current number of attempt will be displayed at the top left corner of the screen. When all attempts are completed, the dung beetle will receive a medal if its result is good enough. Can the dung beetle rise to stardom and earn the praises of everyone else?
