I like the idea! Great execution and fun gameplay!
LMAO hilarious concept, I didn't get why the title was flashing sheeps until the 3rd letter showed up. Fun game! I kind of wish there was a version with whole words instead of just letters though (wink wink nudge nudge post jam update pretty please? )
We'd love to explore the concept further! There some things that a little polish as well
very cute game and creative realization, much to the known phrase 'a wolf in sheeps clothing'. i love typing games and i am sure to visit this one again in the future!
Loved the art and the game overall, great concept and very fun to play!
Really cool art I like it! Gameplay is simple but effective! Very cool! ^^
thanks :D
Oh this game is easy... oh wait. Fun little game, very adorable art :D
thank you for playing!
Oh wow not what i was expecting at all. Fantastic game and the visuals are just voila. Love it <3
Appreciate it :)
Smart that you took the keyboard controls requirement to turn it into a typing game. Great work!
Thanks a lot!
I like the art. I really need to get better at typing, because the wolves took over really fast!
Thanks for playing! The game ended up more difficult than we intended if you aren't familiarized with typing hehe
Keeping the population down is a fun mechanic, and this is the first game I played with a typing mechanic. I like the idea! well done. Though I feel like the sheep are enjoying this process a little...too much
Thanks for playing :)
We only realized the true nature of those sheep a couple of hours before submitting the game and it was when we choose the title LOL
Nice art and fun typing/memory game! Although the typing did feel like an afterthought, wish the typing was a bit more difficult. It's more about balancing the population which is a nice mechanic on its own. Very cool :D
Thank you for playing!
Typing as a mechanic is pretty unexplored, so I’m glad to say I liked this! Good job!
Thanks for playing! We ended up cutting some mechanics that were too unpolished, so it became very minimalist hehe
The sheep feels very fluffy, love it!
thanks! <3
I mean this in the best way possible: this reminds me of the games of Neopets(!!!) very cool!
I will gladly take as a compliment, neopet games were sick! Thank you :)
cool typing game!
appreciate it :)
Looved the character design! Fun game overall, good job!
Thank you so much \0/
Really cute game! Loved art and the wolf being in sheep's clothing. I played a lot of typing games as a kid so this was very satisfying. Good job :)
Thank you for playing, glad you liked it o/
Super simple and incredibly enjoyable. Not sure if it bugged but I got to the point where sheep and wolves started spawning outside the window (would see like their shoulder peering into view). I like how the music seemed to change as more sheep spawned in. Art is A1. I do wish the game had a bit more added to the loop, like some sort of mechanic beyond just hitting letters. But again, jam game, nitpicking, enjoyed the game!
I think you are the person that gone farthest in the game haha
To try and spice things up, we made several parameters scale with the number of sheep, including the spawn radius. That was probably the source of the bug. I'll fix that—thanks for playing and for reporting it! :D
The art is great. Really liked the wolf when it was finally revealed. I'm not great at typing, but I definitely enjoyed the game. Good job.
Appreciate it :)
Nice and origina arts style! Interesting game mechanics! Nice job!
Thank you for playing!
