There is something charming about the hand-drawn art. There are some huge sheep out there :D Maybe allow the user for a slightly longer reaction time ?

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I already thought about making different difficulties including letting the sheeps fall slower.

I found it really cute. I laughed when I caught my first sheep!

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad it made you laugh :D

Fun fact: The sheeps pitch is proportional to its size and gets calculated dynamically.

A fun and straightforward game.  I particularly enjoyed the ending where the timer runs out.

This was a fun little game! That sheep sprite is amazing. 

I burst out laughing when one of the pink sheep rocketed down and instantly exploded at the bottom of the screen. It really caught me off guard lol.

I'm glad it made you laugh :D

Fun fact about the explosion sounds: I've popped some balloons and recorded it :D

Nice, simple game! I loved the music and sound effects! I liked the layout of your HUD as well. Well done!

Thanks! As I try to make almost all sounds and music by myself, this means a lot to me :)


Fun fact: I had the Super Mario 64 underwater theme in mind when composing the background music and used a similar instrument.
