Very simple, but polished experience. Good use of the theme and limitation. However, I found it a little bit hard and slightly repetitive (one way to fix this might be to slow the game down and slowly increase the speed over time just to ease the player into it). A post-jam version with a few new player interactions to change up the gameplay a bit would be interesting to see.

Thanks, I will do my best.

The game is nice, the only thing i could say is that the sheeps sometimes are difficult to differenciate from the background when you have to be looking for all of them and that the wolves eating a sheep must have had a type of penalty, since then it's easier to leave some sheeps to the wolves and take care of only a couple of them :) . 

Overall nice game, i liked it and got a pretty god score B)))

Developer

Thanks you.

Good game, but I felt the the sheeps have the same speed as wolfs and that filt not normal : |

I like the game a lot and the art and sound are awesome, but I thought it was kinda hard but still a great interpretation of the theme.

Thanks!

Loved it! I liked how polished everything is and loved the art and how you followed the limitation! This game has so much potential, continue working on it!

However I think it's a bit too hard (maybe slow the sheep down) and gets repetitive and boring quickly, but with some minor improvements and some new additions this game would be absolutely amazing!

Loved the sounds by the way!

Thanks, I will look into that.

Pretty fun, but gets repetitive very fast, because when there is only one sheep left it gets very easy and sometimes picking up the sheep was very hard and it felt like I just couldn't click them and the dog should have it's own model and not just used smaller version of the wolf, because now it has DIFFERENTLY SIZED PIXELS so please just don't scale pixel art (I say that to almost all of the jam games that have pixel art, because nobody seems to make their scale consistent and it annoys me a lot)

Thank you for your review.
Yeah, I should have probably mentioned that there’s a cool-down on how long you can hold a sheep,

I’ll remove the cool-down and try to make game harder then there’s only one sheep left.

And about pixel scaling: I will take that into consideration next time I will make a game.

Btw, thank you for playing. :D
