Buddy Toss is a smartphone video game by Big Dog Games released in 2018. It features a burly man who throws his buddy as high as possible. It starts with throwing him above a city, to above Earth's orbit, and even outside of our galaxy. To get him higher, he must be thrown at the last possible moment before falling to the ground. However, if the thrower runs out of energy, he won't be able to throw buddy, ending the run. The higher you get, the more stars you earn, which can be spent on upgrades and costumes.
This game provides examples of:
- Batman Can Breathe in Space: Buddy can breathe in space for minutes on end and live. He occasionally falls down to Earth, but his stay there becomes shorter and shorter.
