How did you interpret the theme?
You are under pressure because you have to herd all of your sheep into the pen (fence area) before the wolf comes and gets them or before you lose too many.

A very cute game with cute art and relaxing music! Absolutely love it! 

However, it feels too short...but hey, my game is short too, totally understand that.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Interesting concept! The art and gameplay are great. On the first try I had a rogue sheep that refused to follow me, but after the wolf got her the others got in line in the next tries Hahah. Fun game, good work!

Developer

Yeah I've noticed that kept happening and I thought I fixed it but it seems like I didn't haha

Thanks for the feedback!

Simple idea but well executed. It took me 3 attempts to complete it, I think it would be interesting if each day more sheep get added and then the aim is to see how many days you can survive. The art is great and I enjoyed playing even though it is really short

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! The "see how many days you can survive" is actually quite a good idea!

Great work, little tips for the future tho:

-Lacks content, game takes 20 seconds it took longer for me to download it… visual looks great and love the animations nice! Solid job on that one!

Thank you! I would've wanted to add more levels but I unfortunately ran out of time.

the game is lovely, i thought the visuals were really nice, the game also gives you a certain pressure of having to put the sheep in that fence, great job!

Developer

Thank you for playing!
