Throw Out is a competitive game in the Arcade Games where players take the form of pigs and compete to try to knock as many others off of the map as possible. The game was released sometime during the VIP Beta testing of the Arcade Games, approximately May or June of 2014.[1]
Gameplay
Players disguised as pigs spawn around a flat, circular ice platform that has a hole and small island in the middle. Players try to throw others off of the map using the given knockback slime ball or their fist. The player with the most kills after 4 minutes wins.
<player1> was punched into the void by <player2>!
Each time a player is hit, their knockback level (the percentage above them) is increased by 2%. The higher the percentage, the further and more forcefully they will be knocked back. A player's personal knockback level can be seen by looking at the experience bar above the hotbar or by pressing tab, which shows everyone's percentages. If the level goes above 200%, the player will die.
Players are able to double jump every two seconds.
Powerups
The only powerup is the Megapunch powerup, spawning approximately every 14 seconds on the small island at the middle of the map. When activated, each hit will increase the hit player's knockback level by 20% instead of 2%. Megapunch lasts for 20 seconds.
