- staring into the mouth of a biblically accurate sheep while it shoots thousands of lasers at you never felt so beautiful, if there different things to throw on the ground I would've given it 5 stars but I REALLY liked this entry and think this is a perfect game
Game's take on the theme
The game meets the theme by not having proper weapons, pick anything you find on the ground and throw everything at the bosses! I'm quite happy with this game feature as it makes a good mix with the bullet hell genre since you have to move constantly to pick up items to throw.

Very fun game, the art, music, and realistic bricks strangely work in tandem to make something that I think had a high chance of winning! i would say it felt a bit strange not having a crosshair to know where I was throwing my bricks :(
very fun game I like

Hey would you mind checking out my game?
I have no idea what I just played. 10/10
The visual style works in a way that is so good that I can't even put it into words. The progression from "normal sheep" to "eldrich abomination" is absolutely hilarious, and the photorealistic bricks clash with everything else in just the right way. The final boss is somewhat tedious, as it's hard to see where the lasers are without a floor, but it was still very enjoyable. And, the music choice was just PERFECT as well. This might be my favorite game from the jam!
the game is hilarious, it reminded me of the "nier" series and there were sheeps! Loved the explosions ahahah
Overall, simple and effective. The game's mechanics are easily understood, while the effort put into the bosses keeps it from becoming boring too quickly. The implementation of the theme, if basic, is amusing in its own right - the fact that combat revolves around throwing cinder blocks at sheep (and later, eldritch monstrosities) gives the game a charm it wouldn't have otherwise.
The only real issues I noticed were from the final boss - the boss itself is very spongy relative to the variety of its attack patterns, and it's hard to tell where its laser attacks will hit at times.
i love how the boss is pretty unique, i like your idea !!
I looooved this game I was smiling the whole time, I don't know what it is, but the sheer spectacle of the final boss hits so hard after the slow buildup it surprised me so much s;ldkhgsdg banger game lmao
With each phase I kept asking myself "THERE'S MORE?". Really funny concept and really cool main mechanic. The sheer scale of the final boss was amazing, maybe it could be a little less bullet spongy but that's just nitpicking. Really good entry!
THIS GAME IS AMAZING! great use of comedy of the sheer stupidity of fighting biblically accurate sheep by throwing bricks at them, and THAT FINAL BOSS was the most amazing thing ever. Just the sheer spectacle and scale of it and it being like a light show of weaving between lasers sold it completely. The only bad things about this game, was that there wasn't enough attack variety and the final boss was very disorienting and made me feel motion sick. Still, an incredible game
C'est très très fun. J'ai pas réussi à vaincre le dernier boss mais j'ai kiffé les évolution. l'humour du jeu est très sympa.
franchement un gros gg pour la réalisation bien joué à toi !
It was morbidly entertaining to throw bricks at a sheep.
Loved this one! It was really funny from start to finish and throwing the bricks was actually surprisingly entertaining! I loved clumping them up into huge balls and watching them fly everywhere when they hit. The fourth boss definitely could use some tweaking as I found myself really uncertain as to where the beams hit and its health was gigantic, but even though I didn't beat it I still really enjoyed that boss too! It was a lot of fun and made me laugh with each new boss, great job!
I loved the mood of this game, it was very fun, made me laugh and was very immersed in it :O
is there a mac version? i don't see one in the downloads but u mention it on the game page. game looks cool i wanna play lol
oh sorry, I removed it after I was told it didn't work and forgot to modify the description :(
aw all good
The rotation rate when turning is a bit too slow, but otherwise the controls seem fine...
Throwing bricks at sheep >>>>>
Lovely juice and gameplay, nice and quick fun. Good job!
I cannot stand sheeps in general so it was a thrill to kill them with bricks! The game is beautiful and the music is epic. It's a bit redondant though.
I love love love sheep. Almost as much as I love throwing bricks at them. (Just kidding, more than I love throwing bricks at them)
Anyway, I couldn't beat the third/fourth (idk) boss with the lasers and weird perspective, it just seemed to kill me without me even doing anything. It was just bricks, not really makeshiftness. I think it would have been better to have more strategy and some way to sort of craft different weapons with different materials. Maybe more reason to jump? Why is it biblically accurate? The art is fun though.
They are biblically accurate indeed. I loved the game, super cool concept and art!
Super fun game, the boss battles get a little tedious though, since you need to gather a Sh!t tone of bricks while dodging the pattern attack that doesn't change much and don't respond to the player movements, I wasn't able to defeat the 4 sheep and I didn't want to try another time.
The music is the best part of the game!
Very valid criticism, I pretty much agree and it is also a feeling I had playing the game in it's current state. I will probably balance boss HPs and tweak a few boss patterns before the deadline.
Thanks for playing!
Ok, first- I followed your project on discord, and I thought "cool! A game with sheep and bricks".
I wasn't ready for this.
I mean- I probably was ready for the first boss. It's a sheep. You have bricks. All is good.
Then, with next two bosses you answer a question "what if nier automata, but with sheep, instead of sexy androids?". I mean, no one asked this question, ever, but you answered, and I had a blast dodging ball-missle-bullet-thingies and lasers.
And then, when my brain went with "ok, I underestimated this guy, his game, and his sheep", you went and got the last boss.
Listen, dude, you broke something in reality, because there is something inherently wrong about using words like "total sensory overload" and "goosebumps" to describe a game about 2d sheep that took under a minute to draw.
I loved everything about this.
And I loved every parts of your comment, thank you!!
