Very fun idea, loved the art and sheep puns alot. It did feel like the bark was not that effective which meant spamming it was the best option, it could be very fun if it had a longer effect on the sheep, creating the risk of sending them running off in the wrong direction, and would make lining them up more important. Also the end circle was a bit small so lost a lot of good sheep just a few meters away from safety. Overall fun game with room for future expansion.

3400 Sheep Scorer here! I enjoyed this submission - nice aesthetic and a well implemented, intuitive concept.

If one were to the take the game further, I would suggest some tweaking with the responsiveness of the barking effect – felt a little underpowered with how far the sheep would run while under its effect. Might also benefit from giving the exploding-sheep-effects a little extra juiciness.

Overall, a nicely done game with a solid foundation.

Super fun and fast paced game.

The pixel art is lovely and the sounds and music fit well for the game.

The story-set is amazing.

Overall its a fun and amazing game to play 🤩💯.

Very fun and funny concept! Wish my bark could control my sheep for a bit longer but otherwise I really dug the art, writing and vibe! Would love to play a more flesh out version of this :)

Doggo is a very cute doggo, love the concept and as Kelly said, some more risk wouldve made it even more special. Great Job guys

Thank you very much! We risked it and ran out of time for more risk, sadly :P

Very cute game, I agree with Kelly's comment. More risk would have been fun :)

Developer

Thank you! Indeed, we really wanted to!

Boom Pow! You're da bomb dot com! It's a really fun game! A clear concept that you have ensured to communicate clearly to the player. Hard to fault, I just want more! Maybe more of a consequence to a sheep exploding like it sets off a chain reaction of exploding sheep and you can be killed by them.

Developer

Hahaha why thank ye kindly! I hear ya - part of the original plan was to have much more risk involved in venturing further out and have wolves threaten the player or the risk of losing all the sheep, but alas - time got to us!
