Typing as a mechanic is pretty unexplored, so I’m glad to say I liked this! Good job!

Developer

Thanks for playing! We ended up cutting some mechanics that were too unpolished, so it became very minimalist hehe

I mean this in the best way possible: this reminds me of the games of Neopets(!!!) very cool!

Developer

I will gladly take as a compliment, neopet games were sick! Thank you :)

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 :)

Developer

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!

Developer(+1)

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.

Nice and origina arts style! Interesting game mechanics! Nice job!

Developer

Thank you for playing!

I really liked the presentation, the art is great, and the idea has a good sense of humor. 

Only gripe is that I accidentally murdered my first run trying to press buttons, I feel a little tutorial in the game would make it so much better! Regardless, great work!

Would love it if you could check out our game!

Developer

Thanks for playing and will gladly check your game!

Really cute art and presentation, also a nice twist to typing games. Main criticism is I thought the game could have tied to the theme better but other than that I had fun.

Appreciate the feedback, thanks for playing

i love the art of the logo and the sheeps and wolves. really nice style to that. the game is also really enjoyable to play, it really ramps up in difficulty as it goes on. i ran into a bug in the later sections where i would press the right key and a wolf would spawn. i had to double check to make sure that i wasn't just pressing the wrong key, but it did happen occasionally. overall though, great work on this. i'm not totally sure this fits the theme in any way besides the normal sort of scaling most games usually have, but it was still fun!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the kind words and feedback!

(gotta fix that bug)

Nice and fun relaxing game until you have more than 13/14 sheep flashing at you non stop ! Would be maybe good for the early game to spawn some wolf randomly that despawn once you do not use their keys ?

Nice art tho !

Developer

Thank you for playing and give us feedback :)

Agreed with all of the positive comments- polished art style, loved the music, really creative concept. As for cons, I'd say it doesn't quite fit the theme and the difficulty scales up too slowly to really hook you in. Still, the chaos at the end is fun!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing and giving feedback :))

Indeed, balancing was the area we struggled the most haha

Submitted(+1)

I love the art style, the characters are so cute !

I mixed up D and O lettres XD but fun game overall !

Developer

Thank you so much!

(We realized that problem too late ;-;)

Art is sick. Idea is super creative. Pure chaos at the end. Love it

Developer(+1)

Thanks for embracing the chaos !!

Taking "wolf in sheep's clothing" to a whole new level haha

Very fun game. The absolute chaos when there's a large number of sheep is fun to balance and maintain, especially when making mistakes just keeps compounding into more and more wolves. Going from "super easy and calm" to "crazy and chaotic" is a blast. Awesome concept!

Developer

Glad to hear you liked it

Thanks!

Really cute and polished! The concept is so funny too, great work! It got so hectic at the end being flashed by an entire farm hahahaha love it!

Developer(+2)

Thanks!!

Glad to hear that we landed the chaos  >:^)

it means a lot, thank you :))
