Final Boar Beach
Hold a pig on a surfboard as wolves charge from the shoreline; swipe to deck them into the waves before your balance meter dumps.
Pig stands on a surfboard between sea lanes; wolves slide in from both shores; swipe left/right to deck incoming wolves; tilt your finger to keep balance; balance meter drops each miss; round ends when pig wipes out.
One-thumb: tap-and-drag up/down to keep balance, swipe left or right (or tap side) to deck the wolf rushing that side; one-touch mode available.
Pig-fighter loop with a 'pig-surfer' sport twist to differentiate from straight Iron Snout clones — uses the trending cute-animal-sport mini-genre.
Poki is surfacing Iron Snout again as a 'popular game' this week; a beach-sport skin is a proven differentiator in the 2D fighter genre (e.g., Surfers-era clones).

Direct IP collision — SnoutUp already ships Iron Snout, Iron Snout+, and Bacon May Die on the same pig-vs-wolves beat-em-up mechanic; beach skin does not carve white space.SnoutUp confirms Bacon May Die as their follow-up mobile brawler — same dev doubling down on this exact niche ↗
