About Stink Buddies
MAKE A BIG BALL
You and your three best beetle buddies start with nothing. Scavenge for every fresh turd you can find across the wild landscape. Smash them together into one glorius dung ball and roll it home.
GET THROUGH DANGERS TOGETHER
Hungry birds, giant pigs (well, giant for you) and other predators are obsessed with stealing your precious ball or eating you instead. A landscape full of perils, like little ponds, small holes in the ground, small unvalicable sprouts will stand between you and home, but fear nothing together you’re unstoppable.
TAKE CARE OF IT
Your massive treasure needs the perfect humidity to survive the journey. Too wet and it turns into sloppy mush that disintegrates mid-roll. Too dry and it gets brittle, cracks, and might even burst into flames
- FEATURES • Up to 4-player online co-op • Proximity voice chat • Deadly Boss Figths • Mini weapons • One giant ball • Mushrooms • Physics-based chaos
