In 2011, Flash was still king — and building a browser game for one of Norway's most iconic kids' brands felt like the coolest thing a high schooler could do. TINE's Litago is everywhere in Norwegian childhoods: that little strawberry cow on the chocolate milk carton. We got to bring it to life as a game.
I built this with a few friends over a few months using Flash and ActionScript 3. The result was an infinite runner where the Litago cow dodges obstacles and collects strawberries — simple, silly, and genuinely fun to play. Getting the game feel right taught me more about physics, timing, and player feedback than any textbook could.
Flash is gone now, and that era of browser games feels like a distant memory. But this project sticks with me — it was the first time I shipped something real, for a real brand, that real kids could actually play.
